Hannover (euro adhoc) - Hanover, 16 May 2007 - Delticom AG (German
Securities Code (WKN) 514680, ISIN DE0005146807, stock exchange
symbol DEX), Europe´s leading online tyre retailer, announces its
preliminary figures for the first quarter of 2007 at its General
Meeting in Hanover. According to these figures, revenues have
increased by approximately 52% to EUR 38.9 million compared with EUR
25.6 million for the same period in the previous year. EBIT improved
to EUR 0.3 million at 31 March 2007 following a negative EBIT of EUR
(0.03) million in the first quarter of 2006.

In the tire market, the first three months of the year are
traditionally the weakest in terms of sales and earnings, and this
was also the case with Delticom. Most winter tires were already
bought before the turn of the year and sales of summer tires only
begin in earnest in the second quarter. "With the preliminary
quarterly figures, we started the current year somewhat better than
we had thought", explains Rainer Binder of the Delticom AG Managing
Board. "Having increased our revenues by 34% in fiscal year 2006 and
generated a strong EBIT margin of 5.9%, the online tire market also
offers good growth opportunities for us this year. We intend to make
use of these in the course of the year and to continue our strong
growth in 2007."

The full report for the first quarter of 2007 will be published by
Delticom AG on 23 May 2007 on its website www.delti.com in the
section entitled "Investor Relations".
