Opportunity Investment Management provided earnings guidance for the first half of fiscal 2012. The company expects earnings per share to be substantially higher over the year 2011 as a consequence of three factors: non-audited financial results of its main subsidiary, the Fleischhauer Group (95.9 %), show an EBIT of €965,000 and a profit after tax (PAT) of €753,000 over the first half year of 2011. This means a substantial increase on both EBIT (+23%) and PAT (+44%) as compared to the same period 2010.
