Soaring sales suggest even better to come for Betacom

The company based its prognosis on its sales figures from the first months of this year, which, as Mirosław Załęcki, Betacom's president, revealed were 50% higher in Q1 this year than for the same period in 2003. Furthermore, he announced that in April alone, the company's sales rose by a very healthy 80%. However, the company's prognosis for the last financial year (2003/2004) was not fully realized, which may well explain why the company's statement did not receive a positive reaction from the market and why its stock price fell by 4% yesterday.
