stock market/Half year report

Hamburg (euro adhoc) - Hamburg, 14 August 2007. REpower Systems AG
(WKN 617703) increased sales by 12.2% to EUR 200.2 million in the
first half of 2007 compared with EUR 178.5 million in the same period
of the previous year. The operating result (EBIT) was at EUR 0.3
million compared to EUR 2.4 million in the reference period 2006.
Orders on hand once more increased significantly from 821.5 MW in
2006 to 1,028 MW. In the light of the high number of orders, REpower
anticipates that the strong growth course will continue in 2008 and
2009 and has therefore hired 336 new employees since 30 June 2006.

In the period from January to June 2007, REpower Systems AG
recognised 84 turbines with a total output of 161.0 megawatts in
income. In the previous year, REpower had installed 125 turbines with
a total rated output of 233.0 MW and 17 turbines that were already
recognised in line with the percentage of completion method in 2005.
As it was the case in the first quarter, this decline originated from
delays on the part of suppliers. As a result of these delays, a large
number of wind energy turbines was not fully completed as of the
balance sheet date. As these turbines are measured in line with their
degree of completion, the low number of installations had only a
limited impact on the Group?s total operating performance, sales and
earnings.

The Group?s total operating revenue amounted to EUR 230.9 million,
compared with the total operating revenue of EUR 178.5 million
recorded in the first half of 2006. Sales increased year-on-year from
EUR 178.5 million to EUR 200.2 million. Earnings before interest and
taxes (EBIT) for the period from January to June amounted to EUR
330.0 thousand, compared with EUR 2,373.5 thousand in the same period
of the previous year. Net earnings amounted to EUR 43.8 thousand in
the first six months of 2007 compared to EUR 944.3 thousand.

Improved financial management and the rise in cash generated an
increase in interest income. As a consequence, the financial result
improved year-on-year from EUR ?0.9 million to EUR 0.7 million.

At the end of the period under review, the order backlog consisted of
509 wind energy turbines (previous year: 430) with a total rated
output of 1,028.0 megawatts (previous year: 821.5 megawatts), an
increase of 25.2 percent. Orders with a total volume of 408 MW, which
have been announced in the last six weeks, are not included. The
order backlog was revised by one order of all in all 50 MM70 turbines
as REpower no longer considers it probable that this project will be
implemented.

In order to face the continuing growth, REpower has hired 336 new
employees since 30 June 2006, thereof 86 outside Germany. As of 30
June 2007, the REpower Systems Group had a workforce of 1,010 as
against 674 in the same period of the previous year.

REpower is expecting sales volume to rise to EUR 650 million in 2007
with an EBIT margin between 3.0% and 4.5%. For 2008, REpower plans to
increase sales to EUR 900 million with a further improved EBIT
margin.

A telephone conference for analysts and journalists will take place
on 14 August 2007 at 10 am (CET). The dial-in number is +49-30-86 871
790. The original conference call recording can be downloaded from
