vom Call im Februar!
About the price mix: Kathrin is coming to that but I will answer your book-to-bill question. Our book-to-bill is above one. In some areas it's above two. We have a very strong order book, and that means I expect a very strong Q2 as well. So, as you have seen, we had a great start in Q1 but I see that we will have the same speed in Q2. So, a very nice and good Q2. We expect - and that's what Kathrin already said and I said - a lower sales in Q3 and Q4, because today the visibility to Q3 and Q4 is much less, but the next quarter, January, February and March, will be good. And maybe, Kathrin, you can say some words about the price mix. That was one of the questions of Sebastian. Kathrin Dahnke: Well, I think the price mix can be best explained in the revenue development as I outlined, as I commented on earlier. So, we had a strong revenue growth in both, visualization, lasers and illumination. And these were the fastest growing business segments within OS with a good margin. And therefore, some of the EBITDA margin improvement is due to that revenue switch into those segments. Dr. Olaf Berlien: Sebastian, is that fine to you? February 9, 2021 - AC ? Osram Licht AG - | 10 Kathrin Dahnke: Did that answer your questions, Sebastian. Sebastian Growe (Commerzbank): Yes, that does make sense. If I may ask just one quick thing around illumination: My understanding would still be that this is a loss-making activity within Opto. Is that assumption correct? Dr. Olaf Berlien: No, it's not correct. Kathrin Dahnke: No, we are very proud that it is not loss making anymore. You see, therefore, it was worthwhile really doing a great job there on focus and also on cost structure. Dr. Olaf Berlien: And, Sebastian, it's really changing. As I said, we had a growth quarter to quarter by 23 percent, and we have the same speed for the next quarter as well. So, we are very proud and very happy. Sebastian Growe (Commerzbank): Okay. That sounds good. Congrats. Dr. Olaf Berlien: Yes, thanks to Kulim. Sometimes, it takes time, but now it's coming.
