annual report

Koblenz (euro adhoc) - Koblenz-based CompuGROUP Holding AG today
published the full Annual Report 2009. As an innovator and early
mover when it comes to technology, CompuGROUP has now eliminated the
printed paper version and instead provides an interactive version of
the report available online on the website
http://report.compugroup.com/english. This move saves costs, saves
the environment and provides for enhanced information content with
easier access and rapid navigation.

For the first time, investors are now able to track the results and
the strategy pursued by CompuGROUP Holding AG over the Internet. The
online business report offers users a number of benefits. For
example, it is possible to select individual Excel tables from the
business report and use them directly in your own calculations. With
each click of the mouse, the requested information - for example the
different sites in 18 countries - may be retrieved in a systematic
way. Moreover, investors are able to `get to know´ chief executive
Frank Gotthardt on a personal level. The CEO and company founder
talks about his strategy for success and his future plans in a short
video to elaborate on the key points in his address to the
shareholders.

"We have spent the last 20 years to help doctors, dentists and
hospitals move from paper-based patient records to electronic medical
records, and in that process greatly enhanced the value of
information" states CEO Frank Gotthardt. "It is only natural that we
will be one of the first companies to adopt the same paperless
philosophy when we share information with our shareholders and others
who are interested in CompuGROUP."

The content of the Annual Report 2009 follows the audited financial
report that was already published on March 16th this year. Even in
2009, the year of the financial crisis - CompuGROUP managed to expand
its international business operations, to intensify customer loyalty
and achieve record sales in a value of almost 300 million euros
(294.2). Earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) were just under 60 million euros (59.1). In the last six
years CompuGROUP has grown by an average of 27% a year, driven by a
consistent focus on the health market and a strategy to combine
IT-supported workflow optimization for doctors and hospitals with the
networking of all stakeholders in healthcare. For 2010, CompuGROUP
expects sales revenue of between 315 and 330 million euros and
operating profit (EBITDA) between 67 and 73 million euros.
