*) The disclosure of the previous year's figures for 2014 has been
revised as necessitated by the readjustment of segment reporting.

The Rosenbauer Group's revenues reached a top level of EUR 864
million in the 2015 financial year (2014: EUR 813.8 million), marking
a year-on-year increase of 6%. This rise in revenues was possible due
primarily to the good economic situation and the stronger U.S. dollar
in North America. In some Asian countries, the low oil price was
already reflected in a lower propensity to invest among customers,
but Rosenbauer nonetheless continued its revenue growth in Arab
countries.

At EUR 50.2 million, EBIT in the 2015 financial year was up 4% on the
previous year (2014: EUR 48.4 million), meaning that the EBIT margin
remained constant year-on-year at 5.8%. Although consolidated
earnings developed positively in 2015 due to U.S. business, the year
was dominated mainly by expenses for the Group's appearance at
world's largest trade fair and by higher freight costs.

In addition, consolidated earnings came under pressure due to
fluctuations in capacity utilization during the year in some areas of
production, postponements of deliveries at the end of the year, and
preliminary costs for tapping new markets.

The increase in earnings was attributable largely to the American
segment as a result of the expansion of business on the U.S. market
and the development of the dollar, while optimized production of the
COMMANDER chassis at Rosenbauer Motors also contributed to the
improvement in earnings.

Rosenbauer has now completed the acquisition of G&S
Brandschutztechnik AG, a stationary fire protection specialist based
in Mogendorf, Germany, and is acquiring 100% of the shares in G&S
Brandschutztechnik from the owning company with retroactive effect
from January 1, 2016. The company most recently generated revenues of
EUR 14.3 million with 130 employees. The G&S Group's activities
comprise the planning, production and installation through to
servicing of systems for preventative fire protection.
