Conclusions

1950 - Started the production of electric isolated

conductors in Tîrgu Mureș in the workshops of

local industry

1960 - After a dynamic development, this activity

was transferred to the republican industry

through the set-up of Tg.-Mures Conductors

Factory (FCTM), in 1960, with the registered office

on the current location of ROMCAB.

1961 – 1969 - The factory manufactured cables and

plastics insulated conductors, being developed

and equipped appropriately for domestic

demand, especially for the manufacture of

electrical strands for motor trucks and tractors

assimilated for manufacturing at the factories in

Brasov.

1969 - The factory was unified with Electromureş

company and with Computing Machine factory

(Fabrica de Maşini de Calcul) being built and

commissioned. Electromureş became the sole

supplier of conductors and PVC insulated cords

for the entire building machine industry and

energetic industry, as well as electric strands for

any type of vehicle manufactured in the country.

Year 2016, in the vision of

ROMCAB

“Business growth for this year will be

fueled mainly by contracts signed two

years ago which reach maturity in 2016.

Alongside these, new customers will have

a contribution to the advance of incomes.

The advance of costs is closely related to

the increase in operations. For the

quotations for raw materials we have

budgeted a level close to that recorded last

year.”

Zoltan Prosszer, CEO Romcab

Medium-term plans

“The market capitalization reflects the

price that the Romanian investor is

willing to pay. We also try elsewhere, at

the London Stock Exchange, maybe the

investors there will be willing to pay

more."

Zoltan Prosszer, CEO Romcab

1969-1985 - The wires and wiring sections also

manufacture for export, approximately 20-30% of

the total volume of production, which is delivered

to partners well-known on the European,

American and Far Eastern markets.

1990 - The difficulty in adapting to new markets

and the loss of markets in the countries members

of CAER led to the separation of Electromureş in:

Romcab - having as main activity the

manufacture of wires and wiring; Electromureș- having as main activity the manufacture of

household products; Sumel - having as main

activity the manufacture of electrical, audio goods,

tools and construction of special machines.

1990-1999 - The lack of a centralized planning and

imperfect adaptation of Electromureş and then

Romcab to the conditions of market economy

have led to the loss of some business sectors

important to Romcab.

1999 – Paneuro Company SRL purchased from

F.P.S. [State Ownership Fund] the main stock

package and started an important re-organization

process of the factory, laid the basis of a modern

and efficient management which revived the

production and established, among other

objectives, the re-gain of positions on domestic

and foreign markets.

Risks related to the macroeconomic environment

Investment risk - Romania joined the European Union in

2007, but it is still an emerging market. Thus, Romania is still

developing its economic, political and legal systems, which makes

that an investment in Romania generates risks not typically associated

with investments in more developed countries. In general,

investments in countries such as Romania are suitable for

sophisticated investors who have the capacity and resources to assess

the risks associated with such investment

The risk of post-integration - The difficulties of post-

integration into the European Union can have a negative impact on

investment in Romania

Corruption in Romania continues to be at a high level, and

anti-corruption legislation, although well developed, despite progress

in recent years, is not yet a sufficiently effective tool in practice

Geopolitical context - The international situation and the

escalation of conflicts globally and regionally may influence the

economic development of the whole world, at European and regional

level, Romania having a relevant position as NATO member and as

member of the European Union, as it is located at the Southern-

Eastern border. Geopolitical context may have a negative impact on

the business and financial condition of the company, the company's

ability to perform its obligations

Resource management and absorption of EU funds - Despite

some progresses have been recorded, Romania will have to pay

greater attention to strengthening the administrative capacity for the

efficient management of budgetary resources and increase capacity to

absorb EU funds

Legislative instability - In most respects, the Romanian

legislation is harmonized with EU legislation, reflecting the imposed

recommendations and containing the guidelines and principles of the

Community acquis. However, changes in legislation, given that laws

and regulations are sometimes applied inconsistently and in certain

circumstances legal remedies cannot be obtained quickly enough, and

the complex and ambiguous tax system may affect the company's

business

Political and economic uncertainties - economic fluctuations

and inconsistency in the implementation of government policies,

respectively political and economic uncertainties may have a negative

impact on the business, financial situation and the company's ability

to perform its obligations

Risks related to capital market

The market price of the shares is volatile and may be

adversely affected by future sales of shares on the open market

A suspension of trading of the shares could negatively affect

the share price

Stocks traded on BVB are less liquid and more volatile than

those traded on larger financial markets
