2013-Jan-23
Siemens is starting fiscal 2013 with solid figures. Compared to the same period last year, revenue increased slightly in the first quarter due to the good order backlog. Although new orders declined slightly year-over-year, the book-to-bill ratio was again above 1 for the first time in three quarters. Total Sectors profit rose some four percent.
