CURANUM publishes 2007 preliminary results

CURANUM AG is publishing its 2007 results today due to the earlier
than planned completion of its annual audit.

Group revenue grew 6.6% to E230.1 million in the financial year just
passed (2006: E215.7 million), and fully met our expectations despite
a lower level of capacity utilization than planned. The increase in
revenue was primarily attributable to the full-year integration of
the Fazit Group, and of the Armbrustergasse senior citizens' home in
Vienna.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization and rent
(EBITDAR) rose from E71.9 million in 2006 to E75.8 million in 2007,
which represents an increase of 5.4 %. The EBITDAR margin
consequently fell slightly from 33.3% to 32.9%, which continues to
represent an operating return well above the sector average. EBITDA
earnings after rental expense rose from E29.5 million to E30.7
million, and the EBITDA margin fell from 13.7% to 13.3% in 2007.

Depreciation increased from E6.8 million to E8.6 million in 2007 due
to the consolidation of the Fazit Group, the senior citizens' home in
Vienna, real estate in Bad Lauterberg and Greiz, and investments in
the laundry. Operating earnings (EBIT) correspondingly fell from
E22.8 million in 2006 to E22.2 million.

After deducting income tax of E4.7 million (2006: E5.5 million),
consolidated annual earnings before deferred tax amounted to E8.0
million (2006: E10.2 million), which corresponds to earnings per
share before deferred tax of E0.25. The earnings tax rate was 37.3%,
and was slightly higher than in the previous year (35.0%) due to
retrospective tax payments relating to deferred tax.

Due to the adjustment to deferred tax to the lower rate of corporate
taxation in the future, we were required to book additional deferred
tax of E1.6 million in 2007, so that the overall deferred tax
amounted to E3.1 million. Net profit after deferred tax amounted to
E4.9 million in 2007 (2006: E9.3 million), which corresponds to
earnings per share of E0.16 (2006: E0.31).

Cash flow from operating activities fell from E15.8 million to E10.5
million in 2007. This was mainly due to rental prepayments, and the
reclassification of deferred and accrued items, and of other
receivables and liabilities. Gross cash flow, when considered before
changes in net current assets and provisions, rose from E18.6 million
in 2006 to E19.3 million in 2007, despite lower operating earnings.
The overall cash position increased from E9.1 million to E25.6
million as of December 31, 2007.

After the repayment of the convertible profit-sharing certificate
(E12.3 million), and the reduction of overdrafts (E10.4 million),
CURANUM AG issued a borrower's note loan of E30 million at the end of
2007 in order to refinance the purchase price of Elisa Seniorenstift
GmbH, and to create further flexibility for future acquisitions. The
operating facility in Grossalmerode was sold as of December 31, 2007.
This will lead to the discontinuation of E2.6 million of revenue, and
of around E0.4 million of EBITDA, in the 2008 financial year. It was
advantageous for CURANUM AG to sell the operation due to the lack of
an opportunity to integrate it into an existing cluster, and the end
of the rental agreement.

Excluding further acquisitions, we anticipate revenue in a range
between E260 million and E265 million for the 2008 financial year,
EBITDA earnings before interest, depreciation, and amortization of
between E32 million and E34 million, and net profit between E10.5
million and E12 million. The increase in revenues is based mainly on
the acquisition of the Elisa facilities. The budget currently
excludes the rise in the capacity utilization ratio we are currently
aiming for. Further acquisitions we plan to make in the course of the
year are also not included in the budget.
