SoftM Software und Beratung AG (ISIN: DE0007249104), Munich In the
first six months of 2006 achieved revenues of 35.3 million Euro
thereby reaching previous year?s level (previous year 35.6) The
operative result before taxes, interest, depreciation and
amortization (EBITDA) amounted to 1.5 million Euro (previous year
1.9). The consolidated Group expanded in relation to last year with
the inclusion of Solitas Informatik AG and, for the first time, the
Polish SoftM Company.

The standard software business unit showed marked growth of 15%
compared to the previous year realizing 8.4 million Euro million Euro
(previous year 7.3). Solitas Informatik AG, which was taken over in
Summer 2005 also contributed to the higher revenues in this business
unit. Incoming orders for software licenses increased by 33%.
Consulting revenues, which reached 9.8 million Euro million Euro
(previous year 10.8), remained under the previous year?s level. The
fact, that a significant number of consultants were being trained for
the new ERP software Greenax and were therefore not able to be
utilized as revenue sources during this period, played a significant
role. In the business field system integration revenues remained
fairly constant with the previous year at 17.1 million (previous
year 17.5).

The result of normal business activity (EBT) for the first six months
came to -1.1 million Euro (previous year ?0.2). Net income came to
?0.6 million Euro (previous year ?0.3). Result per share as of June
6, 2006 was -0.13 (previous year -0.06). The extensive marketing
expenditures, as well as the considerable training measures
associated with the new ERP software Greenax, had a major impact on
this result.

The Board believes that this year?s target figures will be reached
and that the ambitious plan to realize a result comparable to last
year?s will be met in spite of the considerable costs associated with
the market introduction of the new ERP software Greenax. The
unchanged positive developments in the incoming orders sector for
software licenses will contribute greatly to this end.
