    Agree! Very comforting. 

    Should be proof that the new strategy flies. Hope that the Encore and the other news during the coming year will be well received.

    Well done B&O Smile

    Yes - thumbs up

    Generally speaking, you aren't learning much if your lips are moving.

    On a more serious note:

    Now that we see how strong the automotive segment of our portfolio is, can we please see some damned acoustic lenses pop out of something already?? How long do we have to wait for this?

    Good to see them making money! It's by a very slim margin though.

    Hi,

    this are good news, but according to some newspapers it depends a lot on the automotiv sector (Audi, Aston Martin & Mercedes).

    They still have a lot to do (old fashion productportfolio - the magic should return).

    not one to bump old threads but i was insensed at this comment. this person has no idea what so ever!

    what nailed it for me was the recipe comment? we all remember break point... we all know how long they have been going and what contribution B&O have made to the industry... as for the conventional comment well i have heard this so many times.....

    B&O’s raison d’etre is to put conventional electronics in stylish wrappers and then charge many times over for the result. I don’t see this as a recipe for long term success.
