Pace of growth increases; Even stronger improvement in earnings;
Group restructuring completed

Nuremberg, March 24, 2006 - TA Triumph-Adler AG today announced its
preliminary figures for financial year 2005. These show that TA
Triumph-Adler AG generated Group sales of EUR 336.7 million in
financial year 2005, 12.7 % lower than the previous year. With the
previous year’s sales adjusted for holdings meanwhile divested, 2005
sales were 4.5 % higher than the comparable previous year’s figure
(EUR 322.2 million). As a result, the growth achieved was above the
comparable previous year’s level, while the quality of earnings from
operations improved solidly.

TA Triumph-Adler generated a consolidated operating profit (EBIT) of
EUR 17.9 million before extraordinary effects, interest and taxes of
EUR 18.4 million following EUR 10.7 million the year before.

Net interest income came to EUR -10.2 million (previous year: EUR
-8.0 million). Extraordinary expenses of EUR 9.9 million (previous
year: EUR 14.9 million) were incurred through restructuring the
company and its operations in financial year 2005. The net loss comes
to EUR 3.1 million (previous year: EUR 11.7 million), and was thus
substantially lower than the prior year.

Total consolidated assets came to EUR 422 million at December 31,
2005, following EUR 431 million at December 31, 2004. The equity
ratio was 11.4 % (previous year: 12.1 %). Financial liabilities came
to EUR 85.4 million following EUR 76.7 million the year before.

The operating cash flow came to EUR 28.8 million following EUR 22.5
million the year before.

A dividend will not be distributed for financial year 2005.

As a result of the positive earnings performance from operations in
the core business and the efficiency improvement measures underway in
the Group, the company is expecting to return to profit again in
financial year 2006.
