initial/preliminary results
'initial results of the reconciliation of...', though why they want to do this in the first place beats me. Perhaps the context makes this clear?

: I think you're right here, Kieran, with the German an abbreviated form of "erste Teilergebnisse". What they might have are the results of the reconciliation affecting, say, headline P&L, but not tax, provisions and contingencies, that sort of thing...

: What's a partial result? Surely a result must be complete, or it's not a result.

results in individual areas
One possibility. Has anybody else noticed a growing tendency for German to talk of parts of a whole where English talks of individual items in a group? I keep coming across teilweise where partly would be very odd in English, like "die Ergebnisse waren besser, teilweise sehr viel besser". I think this is probably an example of that. The wider context should make it clear whether my guess of "individual areas" is at all suitable.

: A strong possibility, Terry, but so is Kieran's response, so I have to agree with you both. Has anybody else noticed a growing tendency for literal translations of German terms because of a failure to understand the underlying concepts? :-)
