Quote of the CEO, Eric Van Zele

“Barco’s incoming orders and backlog continued to grow at a rapid pace, helped by rather favourable currency translations.”

“On the other hand Barco’s third quarter shipments somewhat lagged the order momentum due to minor IT conversion and supply chain issues.  On a year-to-date basis our sales performance remains solid in all divisions and the company is well positioned to continue to deliver profitable growth. Our outlook for 2015 remains unchanged,” said Eric Van Zele, president and CEO.

“During the quarter we also implemented measures to improve profitability in our Control Rooms business and launched a few strategic growth initiatives.”
