Montabaur, March 24, 2010. AdLINK Internet Media AG (AdLINK Group)
today announced its consolidated business figures for fiscal year
2009. While earnings (adjusted for special items) remained steady at
the prior-year level, sales fell - in line with expectations - in
comparison with prior-year figures still largely unaffected by the
adverse economic conditions.

Consolidated sales were down 5.4% from EUR 143.0 million (comparable
prior-year figure after sale and deconsolidation of Display Marketing
business) to EUR 135.3 million. Ordinary earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) fell by 0.8% from
EUR 11.9 million (comparable prior-year figure) to EUR 11.8 million.
Ordinary earnings before taxes (EBT) amounted to EUR 6.6 million
(comparable prior-year figure: EUR 6.6 million).

Including non-recurring income of EUR 12.7 million from the sale of
shares in Hi-media and Goldbach Media, EBITDA grew by 105.9% to
EUR 24.5 million, while EBT rose to EUR 19.3 million. After
consideration of the non-recurring income and a disposal gain of
EUR 22.1 million from the sale of the Display Marketing segment to
Hi-media, consolidated net income increased from EUR -13.9 million to
EUR 36.4 million. Earnings per share (EPS) improved from EUR -0.53 in
the previous year (incl. EUR -0.55 from write-downs on investments
and EUR -0.13 from discontinued operations) to EUR 1.36 (incl.
EUR 0.48 from positive special items and EUR 0.79 from discontinued
operations).

As a result of the sale of shares in Goldbach Media and Hi-media, the
AdLINK Group´s net borrowing was fully redeemed.

In view of the fact that market conditions remain difficult, the
Management Board expects sales to reach around EUR 125 million in
fiscal year 2010, while earnings will remain steady at the prior-year
level (before special items).

Following the sale of the Display Marketing business operated under
the AdLINK brand and the subsequent repositioning of the company in
2009, the Management Board and Supervisory Board will propose to the
Annual Shareholders' Meeting in May that the company be renamed Sedo
Holding AG. The two operating brands "Sedo" and "Affilinet" will
continue to be positioned independently on the market and in their
respective target segments and will be strengthened by investments in
the brand and in product development.
