Financial Figures/Balance Sheet

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - SinnerSchrader ended the 2008/2009 financial
year (September 2008 to August 2009) with a good fourth quarter.
Based on the preliminary, unaudited figures from the Annual Financial
Statements, SinnerSchrader achieved gross revenues of around EUR 6.7
million and an operating result (EBITA) before starting losses and
costs from the portfolio expansion of around EUR 0.9 million in the
last quarter of the financial year.

For the 2008/2009 financial year as a whole, the gross revenues will
probably amount to EUR 27.5 million with an EBITA before expansion
costs of between EUR 2.3 and 2.4 million. This means SinnerSchrader
was able to increase its revenues by around 14 per cent and slightly
increase its EBITA before expansion costs compared to the previous
year despite the considerably difficult conditions brought about by
the global economic crisis.

Convinced that there are still good opportunities for growth in
interactive services, SinnerSchrader invested in the expansion of its
own service portfolio during the financial year. SinnerSchrader
established a new e-Commerce Outsourcing business division and
founded next commerce GmbH in May 2009. next commerce will handle the
set-up and development of online sales for established companies in
return for revenue-based compensation. The first shop run by next
commerce for the fashion label Olsen went live today at
olsenfashion.com.

SinnerSchrader also took over newtention technologies GmbH in May
2009. Under the n7 brand, newtention develops and markets leading ad
serving technology which forms the basis for the profile-based
control of online advertising campaigns and is thus a fundamental
technology for the performance marketing business.

The expansion of business burdened the operating result in the
2008/2009 financial year by probably around EUR 0.9 million, EUR 0.5
million of which was incurred in the fourth quarter.

The consolidated income for 2008/2009 will probably be just over EUR
1 million, compared to EUR 1.6 million last year. This corresponds to
earnings per share of around EUR 0.09. With a continued high dividend
ratio SinnerSchrader will probably propose a dividend of EUR 0.08 per
share for the past financial year to the Annual General Meeting in
December. This amount would once again be paid from the
tax-recognised contribution account and would thus be tax-free for
those with minor holdings.

As of the balance sheet date of 31 August 2009, the liquidity reserve
amounted to EUR 8.0 million, which was EUR 1.1 million lower than the
final amount at the end of the previous financial year due to the
investments made. The cash flows from operating activities in the
2008/2009 financial year once again surpassed EUR 2 million and will
probably amount to EUR 2.2 million. At the end of August, the
SinnerSchrader Group had 279 employees, of whom 17 were trainees.

The final, audited Annual Financial Statements for 2008/2009 and the
outlook for the 2009/2010 financial year will be published on 5
November 2009. This is the date on which SinnerSchrader will hold its
annual balance sheet press conference in Hamburg.
