Company Information

Koblenz (euro adhoc) - CompuGroup Medical, one of the leading global
providers of ehealth, has been able to achieve an annual growth of
almost 30 percent for years now. This was a particular record for the
year 2009, considering the world-wide financial crisis. This ongoing
success story has now been documented in the current Lünendonk lists.
For the second year in a row, CompuGroup Medical has been the
absolute frontrunner among the "leading mid-sized German standard
software companies", this time for the 2009 rankings. This is also
the first time that CompuGroup Medical has been able to measure up to
the big players in their sector: CompuGroup Medical has successfully
ranked in sixth place on the list of the 2009 "top 25 German standard
software companies".

Despite the worldwide financial and economic crisis, German standard
software companies were able to consistently achieve a steady growth
of five percent annually for the past five years. According to the
Lünendonk Market Research and Consultancy Company, the 25 software
businesses with the highest sales together generated in excess of 7.4
billion euros domestically. This corresponds to a domestic market
share of 52 percent of the standard software business, which is an
increase of one percent compared to 2008.

CompuGroup Medical AG, who achieved record sales, particularly in
2009, was ranked among German companies with the strongest sales
results in Lünendonk´s current analysis. With an increase of 23
million euros in domestic sales and an increase of around 64
million euros in total sales, to a total of 293.4 million euros, the
Koblenz-based ehealth business has achieved the outstanding result of
being in 6th place among the top 25 standard software companies in
Germany. This makes CompuGroup Medical one of the market leaders of
their sector, and from an economic aspect, they are ranked alongside
MICROSOFT Deutschland GmbH (first place), SAP AG (second place),
ORACLE Deutschland GmbH (third place), Datev AG (fourth place), and
Adobe Systems GmbH (fifth place).

In addition to the "top 25 German standard software companies",
Lünendonk GmbH also presents a ranking of the ten leading mid-sized
German standard software companies. It lists the ten companies with
the strongest sales results that generate more than 60 percent of
their sales through the production, sale and maintenance of standard
software, are headquartered in Germany, and achieve total sales below
500 million euros. For the second year in a row, CompuGroup Medical
AG ranked in first place on this list for mid-sized companies with
records sales again in 2009.

Even though the top-ranked 25 standard software businesses all had
very strong sales results, the growth rates achieved by CompuGroup
Medical garnered particular attention. They are absolutely stellar,
even when compared to the big players of the sector. While the top 25
companies achieved average increases in domestic sales of 3.3
percent, and twelve of the listed companies had declines in sales or
had stagnant results, five companies were able to achieve
double-digit growth in 2009. CompuGroup Medical was one of those five
companies, with domestic sales increasing from 131 million euros in
2008 to 154 million euros in 2009, a total of 17.6 percent.

"This excellent result again confirms for us that we are taking the
right steps. Our innovative products in particular prove that today,
medical information technology is already the third industrial pillar
of the healthcare system, next to medical technology and drug
therapy, and has become the decisive factor for success in supporting
service providers. There is a reason why we are able to reach more
service providers with our intelligent software than any of our
competitors", commented the founder and chair, Frank Gotthardt, on
the top ranking on both of the Lünendonk lists.

In Germany alone, every other private practice physician uses
CompuGroup Medical AG systems. Our intelligent software helps
hundreds of thousands of physicians and treatment teams in private
practices and in hospitals to find even better diagnostic and
treatment options for their patients. This innovative product and
solution spectrum has an enormous potential for development that is
reflected in the sales figures. "We want to increase sales again next
year - with a balanced mix of acquisitions and organic growth"
commented Frank Gotthardt. CompuGroup Medical expects sales between
315 and 330 million euros for 2010, which would raise the expectation
of again achieving a top ranking on the Lünendonk lists.
