"We grew significantly faster than the overall market during the second quarter," explains Richard Mayer, spokesperson for the executive board. "This acted as a further lever for our earnings power and revealed efficiency gains across the group"

Preliminary profit before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) for the second quarter was up 69.3% on the previous year at €45.7 million (Q2 2010: €27 million), the highest figure since the 2007 merger.
