Preliminary annual result/dividend

Sixt achieves highest pre-tax profit in 2011 - dividend increase
planned

Pullach, 15 March 2012 - In 2011 the Sixt Group recorded a very
gratifying business performance and generated the best result in the
Company's history. According to preliminary calculations, the Group's
earnings before taxes (EBT), the key earnings figure of the
international mobility service provider, increased 35.8% to EUR 138.9
million (2010: EUR 102.3 million) and consolidated profit went up by
37.8% to EUR 97.5 million (2010: EUR 70.7 million). This good
earnings development is due to the strong demand for mobility
services, generally stable rental prices, the consistent focus on
margin improvements, the progress made in the foreign expansion as
well as further efficiency gains throughout the Group.

Rental revenue (excluding other revenue from rental business)
increased by 10.9% in 2011 to EUR 895.7 million (2010: EUR 807.5
million). Revenue rose both at home in Germany (+7.2%) as well as
abroad in Europe (+19.5%). The Leasing Business Unit recorded revenue
of EUR 393.5 million, which was almost in line with last year's level
(2010: EUR 403.5 million; -2.5%). All in all, the Sixt Group reports
consolidated revenues of EUR 1.56 billion for 2011, 1.7% more than
the year before (EUR 1.54 billion).

The Managing Board proposes to the Supervisory Board and the Annual
General Meeting that for the financial year 2011 a dividend of EUR
0.60 should be paid per ordinary share and EUR 0.62 per preference
share, plus a bonus of EUR 0.15 for each share category. The year
before EUR 0.50 had been paid for each ordinary share and EUR 0.51
for each preference share, plus a bonus of EUR 0.20 for each class of
shares (previous year's figures have been adjusted to the doubled
number of shares in the reporting year). Though Sixt is operatively
and financially well equipped, the Company is readying itself for a
more difficult year in 2012, given the general expectation of a
global economic slowdown. The Managing Board considers a further
increase in rental revenues and growth in leasing sales possible, but
also reckons with higher operative costs. Though Sixt expects to see
another good earnings position in 2012, because of the macroeconomic
risks the high earnings level of 2011 will be hard to repeat.
