Hamburg (euro adhoc) - Despite the economic crisis, SinnerSchrader
continues to develop successfully. In the first quarter of the
2008/2009 financial year (1 September to 30 November 2008), gross
revenues rose by 35 per cent compared to the same quarter last year
to reach EUR 7.3 million, while net revenues improved by 37 per cent,
reaching EUR 5.6 million. The operating result (EBITA) rose 67 per
cent to EUR 0.5 million.

The operating margin was 7.7 per cent (gross) and 10 per cent (net),
an improvement of 1.5 and 1.8 percentage points compared to the
previous year. A considerable portion of the growth in revenues and
earnings was attributed to the wholly owned subsidiary spot-media AG,
which did not yet belong to SinnerSchrader in the first quarter of
the previous year.

The consolidated income of EUR 0.4 million was a good 29 per cent
higher than in the previous year. The consolidated income per share
amounted to EUR 0.04 and was thus EUR 0.01 higher than in the same
period last year. As of 30 November 2008, SinnerSchrader had a
liquidity reserve of EUR 8.6 million, which was EUR 0.4 million less
than on 31 August 2008. The equity ratio was 63 per cent.

Incoming orders in the first quarter were 13.5 per cent higher than
the previous year, meaning that the dynamic growth in orders has
slowed down. SinnerSchrader sees further growth opportunities for the
year as a whole. However, due to the current economic difficulties,
the growth rates of the first quarter will not be able to be applied
to the whole fiscal year.

Yesterday, the Management Board and Supervisory Board agreed to
extend to 30 June 2009 the share repurchase programme which started
in October 2008 and was initially limited to 31 December 2008.

The complete quarterly report will be made available in the Internet
under www.wkn514190.de/s2ir/de/Finanzberichte.html today at 3 pm.
