Chemicals and pharmaceuticals company DSM booked turnover from continuing operations of nearly €2.3bn in the second quarter of 2010, up 28% on 2009.


Profit before tax and interest was up nearly 300% at €246m, far above the expectations of analysts questioned by financial news agencies.
CEO Feike Sijbesma said it had been a ‘very strong quarter’.
‘DSM remains vigilant about the broader macro economic developments. Based on the current positive business environment we expect 2010 to be a strong year for DSM,’ the CEO said in a statement.
