We anticipate that, barring unforeseen circumstances, the net group result
will improve again in 1985.
We are fully aware that the dedication shown by our employees and their
willingness to accept the considerable changes made in the company
organization have substantially contributed to the improved results of this
year.
We would like to conclude this annual report with a word of thanks to the
retiring chairman of the Supervisory Board, Mr. J. de Wilde. Without in
any way intending to disparage the efforts of others, it can be said that
during the years of his chairmanship of the Managing Board, Mr. de Wilde
determined the image and course of development of FGH. His experience
and expertise also enabled us to rely at all times on his invaluable advice
and assistance during the years in which he was chairman of the
Supervisory Board. We are very grateful to him for this.
We also note with regret the departure of Mr. P.M.H. van Boven, member
of the Supervisory Board of our company since 1969.
We shall miss his wide range of experience, his creativity and the
originality of his opinions and advice.
