About Österreichische Post AG
Austrian Post is Austria’s leading postal service provider. In 2005 the
portfolio of business activities was grouped into Mail, Parcel & Logistics
and Branch Network divisions. The Mail Division comprises three business
areas: Letter Mail (letters and postcards), Infomail (addressed and
unaddressed direct mail) and Media Post (newspaper and magazine delivery).
The Parcel & Logistics Division is responsible for all parcel and express
services. The Branch Network Division operates one of Austria’s largest
nationwide retail chains, with 1,338 company owned branches and 612
third-party operated outlets.
The company has undergone a major transformation over the past few years.
It has radically refocused on quality — in the logistics that support its
services, in its innovative product portfolio and in its customer-facing
services. Both the optimised process chain that maintains its nationwide
coverage and its 11,300 delivery staff make important contributions to its
high quality and service standards. Austrian postmen and women reach every
delivery point in the country, every day.
These achievements are reflected in the company’s financial performance.
Consolidated revenue grew again in 2005, by 2.9% to EUR 1,701.6 million
(m), and there were more marked improvements in earnings. EBITDA rose by
10.2% to EUR 223.8m, and EBIT by 25.3% to EUR 103.0m.
Austrian Post is a modern, efficient, customer-driven service provider,
and a profitable enterprise.
