Roding, March 15, 2007 - Mühlbauer Holding AG & Co. KGaA quoted on
the Prime Standard and worldwide active independent advisor and
manufacturer of innovative security solutions for the TECURITY®
market consistently pushed ahead its positioning in promising growth
markets in the 2006 financial year. At the same time, the technology
group grew further, improved results and more than reinforced the
position in its markets.

With generated earnings before taxes (EBIT) of EUR 34.4 million,
Mühlbauer was able to exceed the comparable value of last year by
4.1% (EUR 33.1 million), while consolidated earnings before taxes
(EBT) even rose 9.6% to EUR 38.0 million (EUR 34.7 million) over the
same period of time. The profit margin of 23.7% was once again
slightly up on the value of last year (23.4%) despite the group's
drive towards globalization in the year under report. Mühlbauer also
managed to significantly improve its net earnings: Due to
extraordinary gains from the capitalization of a claim for a tax
refund, net earnings amounted to EUR 27.7 million and increased by
20.4% compared to the value of last year (EUR 23.0 million), which
corresponds to earnings per share of EUR 1.90 (EUR 1.59). Once again
the Mühlbauer Group wants to continue its profit-oriented dividend
policy and enables shareholders to participate in the result of the
past financial year: A proposal will be forwarded to the Annual
General Meeting suggesting the payment of a dividend of EUR 1.00 and
- on the occasion of the 25-year company anniversary - an additional
special dividend of EUR 0.25 per share, which amounts to a total
dividend of EUR 1.25 (EUR 0.90) per share.

At EUR 2.4 million, free cashflow was clearly below the level of the
previous year (EUR 22.7 million), due to higher expenditures for
investments and due to funds used for financing of net working
capital. At the end of the reporting period, the proportion of equity
capital in total capital, however, was at 80.1% compared to 76.3% in
the previous year.

Mühlbauer's sales figure hit an all-time high and climbed 8.7% to EUR
160.9 million *(EUR 148.1 million) over the previous year. All
business areas made their contribution to growth. With an order
income of EUR 161.5 million in the 2006 financial year, the Mühlbauer
Group is only 2.1% behind the value of last year (EUR 165.0 million).
Also the global technology group's order backlog almost maintained
the level of last year and was at EUR 79.2 million (EUR 81.7
million).

The Mühlbauer Group considers itself well positioned for the future:
As a result of the increasing implementation of security-oriented
identification systems in Smart Card and passport format the demand
for innovative and reliable technology and software solutions is
growing. Because of the high preparedness of many states to make
major investments the opportunities are very positive to benefit from
this trend. Additionally RFID technology, which is predicted to
possess high growth potential, is also gaining importance. With its
sophisticated technology solutions for the manufacture of RFID Smart
Label, Mühlbauer is extremely well prepared to generate above-average
profits from the expected rise in demand in these future markets.
Based on its comprehensive, innovative and solution-oriented product
portfolio, the global technology group expects to continue the
positive trend in business.

deductions on sales proceeds of EUR 0.2 million (EUR 0.2 million)
