9-month report

29.11.2007

- Strong growth in order book
- Revenue and earnings rise in the first nine months
- 2007 earnings forecast raised

Blaubeuren, November 29, 2007 - centrotherm photovoltaics AG achieved
a significant increase in order book, revenue and earnings in the
first nine months of 2007*. A strong increase in the order book was
achieved at EUR 326 million as of September 30, 2007, and currently
EUR 402 million.

Consolidated revenue rose to EUR 91.7 million in the first nine
months of 2007 (previous year: EUR 40.6 million). centrotherm
photovoltaics further expanded its international customers' share in
its business, particularly from Asia: 71.2% of revenue was generated
in Asia, 23.0% in Germany, and 5.8% in the rest of Europe and the
rest of the world.

The critical metric to assess centrotherm photovoltaics' business
position is total output since this also contains changes in
work-in-progress. Total output increased to EUR 100.3 million in the
first nine months of 2007 (9M 2006: EUR 41.7 million).

EBIT (operating earnings before interest and tax) rose to EUR 11.9
million in the first nine months of 2007 (9M 2006: EUR 4.3 million).
Consolidated earnings amounted to EUR 7.2 million in the first nine
months of 2007 (9M 2006: EUR 2.7 million).

The group's strong growth is also reflected in the higher number of
employees. centrotherm photovoltaics had 143 employees as of
September 30, 2007.

centrotherm photovoltaics anticipates a continuation of the positive
sector environment in the next few months, and average market growth
rates of around 30% per annum, based on expert estimates. Based on
current figures and the continuation of good growth, the Management
Board expects that the revenue forecast at the time of the flotation
of EUR142 million, which also represents analysts' consensus, and the
EBIT forecast, will be exceeded for the 2007 full year.

The interim report as of September 30, 2007 is available for download
on the centrotherm photovoltaics AG website (www.centrotherm-pv.de)
in the Investor Relations area.

*The comparability of the financial disclosures in the 2006 and 2007
reporting periods, particularly those of the nine-month figures, is
limited due to various factors.
