2009 Preliminary results

24.02.2010

Last year, Group revenues rose to a record figure of EUR 540.0 Mio,
8% up on the previous year (2008: EUR 500.3 Mio). This development
was driven largely by the export business of ROSENBAUER International
AG and by the US segment. Last year´s preliminary operating result
(EBIT before taking account of any one- off effects) was lifted by 9%
to reach the highest figure ever, EUR 43.4 Mio (2008: EUR 39.9 Mio).
As in previous years, the biggest contributors to the result were the
export business of ROSENBAUER International AG and the US companies.

First announced in May 2009, the investigation by the German Federal
Cartel Office is still underway and encompasses all the main
manufacturers of municipal fire fighting vehicles in Germany. On
risk-policy grounds, Management has decided, after due consultation
with legal counsel, to make a provision in an amount of EUR 15.0 Mio.
This leads to an interim EBIT, after one-off effects, of EUR
29.3 Mio. A decision by the Federal Cartel Office is expected during
the financial year 2010.

"The one-off effects (i.e. the provision made in the light of the anti-trust
proceedings) ought not to have any influence on the dividend policy, and so we
are aiming at a dividend of the same level as in previous years", announces
Julian Wagner, President and CEO of the Executive Board of ROSENBAUER
International AG.

The high volume of orders on hand at the end of 2009 means that full
utilization of production capacity is assured for some time to come. Given the
Group´s strong market position and the persistently good order trend,
ROSENBAUER Group Management takes a very confident view of 2010.

The figures given here are based on an IFRS-compliant accounting forecast. The
final figures for the 2009 financial year are to be announced on April 23,
2010.
