Financial highlights


Revenue was up 5 percent, due to volume growth of 1 percent and pricing of 9 percent (before a 3 percent adverse mix effect). Weaker economic conditions and continued raw material price inflation adversely impacted our results, particularly in Decorative Paints. We have launched a major performance improvement program to deliver €500 million EBITDA in 2014.
EBITDA has been impacted by further raw material price inflation, demand volatility and soft demand.

We are implementing a major performance improvement program which includes functional and operational excellence initiatives to sustainably underpin our performance. This program will ensure that our growth ambitions are delivered at or above the mid-point of our 13-15 percent EBITDA margin guidance.
