Sales last year rose by some 40% to €2.43bn ($2.68bn) from 2014, while earnings before interest and taxes (Ebit) went up more than 60% to €126.2m in the same period, according to preliminary figures. The company didn't provide net profit results.

The operating margin before interest widened to 5.2% in 2015 from 4.5% in 2014.

The main underpinnings for the strong business performance came from the EMEA region, where Nordex generated 88% of its sales, or €2.14bn.
