Axxom
achieves significant sales and profit growth
The Munich-based technology company
defies the demanding market environment and continues to grow in 2009
Munich,
January 27 – Axxom Software
AG has closed the 2009 fiscal year with a significant sales and profit
growth.
The company recorded a double-digit percental revenue increase. Axxom’s
earnings
developed positively with a remarkable increase, too. The Munich-based
company
also is confident about the current year, expecting similar growth
rates.
A strong international business was Axxom’s key
growth driver. Large-volume orders from Brazil,
Japan and the USA
increased the foreign sales volume to an all-time high of around 45
percent.
The domestic business, however, contributed to this positive results,
too.
Developments in the logistics, supply chain management and staff
planning
consulting business also were particularly pleasant. “Our professional
and
competent consulting services were critical factors for this successful
result”,
says Dr. Christoph Plapp, CEO of Axxom Software AG. “We have proven
during the
recent years that the combination of system and logistics competence on
the one
hand and deep industry expertise on the other hand provides substantial
short-
and long-term benefits for our customers. The increasing number of
consulting
projects proves this successful concept right.”
The Munich-based company expects the positive
business development to continue in 2010. This forecast is based on
numerous
concrete inquiries from customers and prospects as well as a high order
volume.
“The increasing volatility and planning uncertainty is the company’s
current
main challenge“, Dr. Plapp explains. “Therefore, we expect a continued
increasing demand for solutions and services for human resources and
production
planning as well as logistics and supply chain optimization.
These solutions
and services will enable companies to simulate various scenarios and be
perfectly prepared for future developments. The combination of our
optimization
competence and industry expertise furthermore helps identifying and
realising
quick and sustained savings potentials.”
