HealthCare again strong – weak quarter at CropScience – MaterialScience substantially improved

Third Quarter of 2009: Bayer back on the uptrend: underlying EBITDA above the prior-year period

EBITDA before special items of the Bayer Group in the third quarter of 2009 slightly exceeded the prior-year level for the first time this year. HealthCare and MaterialScience contributed to this positive development. Sales and earnings of HealthCare increased. MaterialScience showed a tangible recovery, almost doubled earnings compared with the preceding quarter and thus reached approximately the level of the prior-year period. CropScience, in a weaker market, saw sales and earnings recede markedly compared with the strong prior-year period. » more
