Financial figures at mid-year 2006

The Einhell group has developed very successful at mid-year 2006.

The group turnover rose from EUR198.2million to EUR221.0million
(+11.5%) by the end of June compared to the same period last year.
Turnover in the domestic market increased from EUR103.3million to
EUR112.6million (+9.0%). Turnover in the EU increased by 11.1% to
EUR68.2million (EUR61.4million last year). Turnover in other
countries increased by 26.7% to EUR28.0million (EUR22.1million last
year) and turnover in Asia increased to EUR12.2million
(EUR11.4million last year).

Both product lines contributed again for this satisfactory business
development. Compared to the same period last year the turnover in
the division "Tools" increased by 16.0% to EUR116.6million
(EUR100.5million last year). The turnover in the division "Garden
and Leisure" increased by 6.9% to EUR104.4million (EUR97.7million
last year).

The profit level succeeded very good at mid-year. Group profit before
tax rose by 23.1% to EUR12.8million (EUR10.4million last year). The
net profit increased to EUR9.0million in the first six months
(EUR6.7million last year). Adjusted net profit (based on DVFA
accounting standard rules) amounts to EUR8.2million (EUR6.3million
last year) or EUR2.2 each share (EUR1.7 last year).

Regarding the good performance at mid-year 2006 the group management
is very optimistic to reach a turnover of EUR400million to
EUR420million and earnings before tax of 5.5% to 6% by year-end.
