Revenue growth in international mail activities
In the MAIL Division, we increased revenue again in , by . to , million
(previous year: , million). e traditionally strong fourth quarter was a key
contributing factor. We were more than able to oset the expected decline in the
German mail market with growth abroad, thanks not least to the rst-time inclusion
of Williams Lea as of April , . As in the past, we recorded only minor currency
eects, amounting to – million in the year under review.
As expected, revenue in the Mail Communication Business Unit fell, by . to
, million (previous year: , million). Traditional letters are increasingly
being replaced by electronic forms of communication, and competition has become
ercer. As the following table shows, the sales volumes generated with both business
and private customers continued to fall.
Mail Communication (Deutsche Post AG share)
mail items (millions) 2005 2006 +/–%
Business customer letters 7,216 6,988 –3.2
Private customer letters 1,398 1,369 –2.1
