9-month report

16.11.2010

• Group revenue up approx. 17% to EUR 519.3 million

• EBT rose by approx. 15% to EUR 62.9 million

The order situation in all divisions of the Semperit Group developed
gratifyingly during the first nine months of 2010. The recovery in demand which
became apparent in the second quarter in the cyclical business divisions should
continue to ensure good capacity utilisation at all production locations.

| |1-9/2009 |1-9/2010 |Change in % |
|Revenue in EUR million |442.9 |519.3 |+17.3 |
|Earnings before tax (EBT) in EUR |54.9 |62.9 |+14.6 |
|million | | | |
|Net profit for the period in EUR |30.0 |34.3 |+14.2 |
|million | | | |

Total revenue of the Semperit Group rose 17.3% in the first nine
months of 2010, to EUR 519.3 million. Earnings before tax (EBT)
further improved to EUR 62.9 million. The net profit for the period
at EUR 34.3 million was also significantly above the prior-year
level.

PERFORMANCE OF THE DIVISIONS The Sempermed division was once again a
strong growth driver in 2010, registering a 20.3% growth in revenue
to EUR 245.2 million. Following a positive second quarter, the
business situation of the Semperflex division continued to develop
gratifyingly with revenue up 36.8% to EUR 106.3 million. Semperform
also posted revenue growth of 8.7% in the first nine months of 2010,
to EUR 83.8 million. Only revenue of the Sempertrans division
totalled EUR 83.9 million, approximately the same level as in the
previous year.

OUTLOOK Semperit expects a satisfactory revenue and earnings
development also for the entire year 2010 on the basis of the good
order volume at the end of the third quarter. However, Semperit
continues to face an instable economic situation. In addition, the
availability of several raw materials and accompanying strong price
rises pose major challenges. Nevertheless, the flexibility of
Semperit´s production sites enables the company to quickly adapt to
different economic conditions and fluctuating market requirements.

The complete Report on 1st-3rd quarter 2010 of the Semperit Group has
