Notes on the quarterly results:

Sales and performance fell short of expectations in the first three
months. This is mainly attributed by the management to clients
postponing their investment decisions.

Sales declined in the StencilLaser and PCB Laser Cutting segments.
The continuing weakness of the dollar is impacting business in Asia
and depressing the amount of investment by clients.

Business in the 3D-MID segment was positive. The LDS method for the
production of three dimensional circuit carriers successfully made
the transition into mass production. Rapid PCB Prototyping generated
a strong growth of 14,9%. The Laser Plastic-Welding segment was also
very successful but was not able to improve significantly in Q1 2007
on the unusually strong performance in the same quarter last year.

Outlook

Management forecast much better sales figures in the second quarter
on the strength of the very high level of orders received in April
and May and adhere to the sales forecast of 45 million EUR for the
ongoing financial year. The continuing shift in sales within the
Laser segment towards 3D-MID, Plastic-Welding and Solar highlights
the planned development of the company towards systems that can be
used in mass production. The management consider these products to
have the best potential for growth in the future.

LPKF Laser & Electronics AG shares are quoted on the Prime Standard
