In the first six months of the current business year, the Nordex
Group (ISIN: DE000A0D6554) achieved a roughly 150% year-on-year
increase in new business. As of June 30, 2006, order receipts were
valued at roughly EUR 400 million (year-ago period: EUR 158 million).
Accordingly, new business is continuing to exceed forecasts. Order
receipts of around EUR 140 million in the second quarter (previous
year: EUR 123 million) matched the Company’s expectations. For the
year as a whole, Nordex currently expects to be able to report new
business of around EUR 600 million (previous year: EUR 395 million).

The strong order intake is particularly being underpinned by brisk
international demand. Roughly 80% of new orders came from out-side
Germany (previous year: 43%), including EUR 195 million alone from
France, where Nordex’s project development activities are proving
successful. As in the previous year, Nordex plans to widen its market
share in the high-growth markets of Europe and Asia in particular.

New business is being increasingly spurred by demand for Nordex’s
high-end range of wind turbines. Some 77% of order receipts relate to
projects with the N80/N90 (2,300 - 2,500 kW), up from 47% in the
previous year. As a result, Nordex is able to harness additional
economies of scale.
