KHD Humboldt Wedag International AG: Update of revenue guidance for 2011

Cologne, November 3, 2011 – KHD Humboldt Wedag International AG (KHD), one of the leading suppliers of plant and services for the cement industry, has announced today that previously projected revenues (August 2011) of € 270 million for the 2011 financial year will not be reached. Uncertainty in some markets, in particular India, has led to lower cement demand and thus customer postponements in project execution. Nevertheless KHD retains its EBIT guidance of € 16 – € 19 million for the current financial year. KHD will publish Q3 2011 financial results on November 11, 2011.
