6-month report

08.02.2010

Berlin, 8 February 2010. Marseille-Kliniken AG (Prime Standard, ISIN
DE 0007783003, MKA) increased operating turnover in the first half of
the financial year 2009/2010 (1 July 2009 - 31 December 2009) by 5.6
% to EUR 123.8 million (previous year: EUR 117.2 million). Group net
income before minority interests rose by EUR 2.3 million compared to
the previous year - from EUR 0.8 million to EUR 3.1 million. Earnings
per share was also up, reaching EUR 0.25 compared to EUR 0.08 in the
previous year. EBIT/IFRS followed the trend, amounting to EUR 6.9
million compared to EUR 4.2 million in the previous year.
EBITDAR/IFRS increased to EUR 35.0 million from EUR 31.7 million.
Equity however decreased from EUR 79.5 million to EUR 65.0 million.
This led to a decreased equity ratio of 29.5 % compared to 35.2 %
last year. Debt however also fell from EUR 77.2 million to EUR 76.1
million. The positive development of these business figures show that
the Group´s intense activities in the areas of marketing and cost
optimisation continue to stabilise.

Adjusted Group net income according to DVFA/SG (IFRS) decrease from
EUR 6.0 million in the first half of previous year to EUR 5.6
million. This corresponds to EUR 0.46 a share compared to EUR 0.49
last year. The lower earnings posted by the acute hospital in Büren
and increased tax expenses were notable factors in this development.
Adjusted EBITDAR meanwhile remained nearly unchanged at EUR 32.5
million after reaching EUR 32.7 million in the previous year.
Adjusted EBIT amounted to EUR 8.6 million (previous year: EUR 9.0
million). Occupancy levels remained consistently high although
capacity being increased by 287 beds. At the Group level, occupancy
reached 92.8 % with 9,387 beds (previous year: 92.7 % with 9,100
beds).

As of the reporting date, capacity in the Care segment had increased
from 7,771 beds to 8,058 beds as a result of expansions at the
Waldkirch, Oberhausen and Bremerhaven sites. The Group´s entire
capacity expansion is therefore only attributable to this segment.
Turnover for the segment increased compared to the previous year from
EUR 90.5 million to EUR 95.4 million. Two facilities negatively
affected earnings according to DVFA/SG (IFRS) - bringing them down to
EUR 4.7 million after amounting to EUR 4.9 million in the previous
year. These facilities were still qualified as start-up facilities
last year. The occupancy rate in Care amounted to 92.4 % after
previously totalling 92.7 %.

Capacity in the Rehabilitation segment remained unchanged at 1,329
beds while turnover increased from EUR 26.6 million to EUR 28.4
million in the current reporting period. Earnings according to
DVFA/SG (IFRS) fell slightly from EUR 1.1 million to EUR 0.9 million.
The occupancy rate for the segment however rose from 92.5 % to 95.0
%.

Cost reduction measures will continue and Marseille-Kliniken is
expecting increasing earnings from a project on optimising material
costs in particular. The Group is also expecting further improvements
on the income side, as it is now focussing on increasing occupancy
levels at every facility after having completed a phase dedicated to
opening new care facilities. An increase in occupancy is expected, in
particular for the expansion facilities which had previously been
responsible for negatively impacting earnings. Against this backdrop,
the company expects the momentum gained in the first half of the year
to remain throughout the coming two quarters.
