KTM Sales, Profits Surge

Austria’s KTM Power Sports AG said net income for the period from September 1, 2005 to May 31, 2006 was 11.6 million euro, up 76 percent from net income of 6.6 million euro during the same nine-month period in the prior year. KTM’s fiscal year ends August 31.
Sales during the first three quarters of the fiscal year totaled 350.5 million euro, up 42 percent compared to sales of 247 million euro in the prior year period.
KTM officials said results came from higher productivity, beneficial currency exchange rates, lower production costs and a better product mix.
KTM expects to close the year with a double-digit sales increase. The company had worldwide sales of approximately $531 million in 2005, up from $490 million in 2004.
KTM North America’s annual business meeting is scheduled for Aug. 29-31 in Portland, Ore.
