Estimated reading time: 20 minutes

The most significant exchange rate risk of the company is related to the Indian subsidiary. A remarkable part of the Group’s operations is located in India. The fluctuation in the exchange rates between Indian Rupee and Euro may have a remarkable effect on revenue and result.

A tax audit is currently taking place in the Indian subsidiary. The audit is not complete yet at the reporting date and its end result cannot be estimated yet.

Events after the end of the period

There are no remarkable events after the end of the period.

Strategy and targets

The recent positive trend in profitability enables the strong development of the company aiming at ensuring the future growth. In 2016 the company is targeting at acquiring new customers and new products to production while at the same time securing that the operational efficiency and quality stay at high level. The sales operations are enhanced, organisations and competencies of the factories are developed further, a new operational model is implemented in global sourcing, production capacity of both factories is developed and the utilisation of the shared ERP is enhanced further.

The Board of Directors is focusing in growing the business further and is not actively assessing opportunities for strategic alliances.

Outlook for 2016

Incap’s estimates for future business development are based both on its customers’ forecasts and on the company’s own assessments.

Due to the recent strong turbulence in world economy and the continued general uncertainty it is very difficult to estimate the development of customer demand. Most of the company’s customers are indicating that their own demand will show a moderate growth in 2016.

The electronics manufacturing volumes in Incap’s factory in Kuressaare have grown steadily and the positive development is expected to continue. The progress in Indian operations has been strong and the revenue is estimated to grow also in future, however with a more moderate pace than previously.

The Group’s revenue in 2016 is estimated to be somewhat higher than in 2015 and the operating profit (EBIT) is estimated to be approximately at the same level than in 2015, provided that there are no major changes in exchange rates.

Board of Directors’ proposal on measures related to the result

The parent company’s loss for the financial period totalled EUR 772,720.93. The Board of Directors will propose to the Annual General Meeting on 6 April 2016 that no dividend be paid and the result for the financial period be recognised in equity.
