Leoben -
AT&S confirms the EBITDA margin expected for the financial year 2018/19 and
slightly adjusts revenue forecast

* Revenue increase of around 3% expected
* EBITDA margin of 24 to 26% confirmed

Based on the accumulated revenue development in the current financial year, the
current market development and the projection for the remaining months, the
Management Board now expects revenue growth of around 3% (previously 6 to 8%)
for the financial year 2018/19.

In addition, the Management Board confirms an EBITDA margin of 24 to 26%, which
is primarily supported by measures to enhance efficiency and productivity, and a
higher-value product portfolio for IC Substrates.

The currently weak demand for smartphones and in the automotive segment was
cushioned by the well diversified product, technology and customer portfolio as
well as the successful entry into the IC substrates business.

In spite of the global political framework conditions and the resulting market
developments, AT&S has a solid position with its product, technology and
customer portfolio. The Management Board still sees very good opportunities in
the medium term to ensure that the development of AT&S is also positive in the
future. The diversification strategy and investments in new business segments
are already starting to pay off in the present environment.
