Dear Shareholders and Parties Interested in Geratherm Medical,

The sales and earnings of Geratherm Medical failed to develop satisfactorily during the second quarter. While we were able to attain the equivalent level of sales, our earnings experienced a weaker development compared to the same quarter last year, when very healthy growth was registered. The main reason is the lack of sales of gallium-filled thermometers. The increase in inventory is valued only at manufacturing costs. The missing sales margin had an adverse impact on the result of approx. 800 kEUR as at June 30, 2012. All other product segments showed positive development. Compared to the weak sales performance in Europe (-38.3 %), we posted considerable growth in South America (+30.9 %) and Other countries (+61.8 %), primarily from the regions Middle East and Africa.

While the overall performance remained consistent during the second quarter, material expenses increased disproportionately by 21.8 %. This is due to the falling gallium prices and thus the lower valuation of products in the inventory.

The operating result in the second quarter decreased significantly from 333 kEUR to 25 kEUR due to the above reasons. By the end of the quarter, we had decreased the production capacity for gallium thermometers by approx. 30 % at the Geschwenda plant in Thuringia.

A positive financial result of 327 kEUR was posted during the second quarter of the fiscal year. The result from ordinary business activities amounted to 352 kEUR (2011: 960 kEUR) including the financial earnings. For the second quarter, an after-tax result of 321 kEUR (2011: 858 kEUR) or 6 EUR cent per share (2011: 17 EUR cent) was realized less taxes and the result for minority interests.

Sales Development

The sales posted during the first six months of 2012 were lower by 7.9 % compared to the reference period of 2011. Exports represented a share of 87 %, which is the same level as last year. The sales of Geratherm products in Germany decreased by -8.3 %.

The reduced demand for gallium-filled thermometers as well as the weak economic growth especially in southern Europe resulted in a considerably negative sales development in Europe. The sales of Geratherm products in the United States were positive, however, and increased by 50.8 %. Sales posted in South America, especially in Brazil, also showed a very positive development with a 30.9 % increase. The area designated as Other countries, which essentially encompasses the Middle East and Africa, experienced a very favorable development with a 61.8 % growth in sales.

Sales by regions 1/1 to 6/30/2012

The mainstay of Geratherm's sales during the first six months of 2012, with an 83.5 % share, includes products in the Healthcare Diagnostic segment, which are marketed internationally in hospitals, clinics and pharmacies. The most important products in this segment are gallium-filled clinical thermometers (31.5 %), blood pressure monitors (28.6 %) and digital clinical thermometers (11.3 %). Due to the weak demand for gallium-filled thermometers in Europe, sales in the Healthcare Diagnostic segment decreased by 13.1 % compared to the same period last year. The Medical warming systems segment showed positive contributions to growth with a 22.3 % increase during the first six months of 2012. The first orders for the US military had a noticeable effect in this regard. On June 25, 2012, Geratherm was selected as the exclusive supplier of warming systems for the United States Army, Special Operations Forces Survival, Support & Equipment System (SSES) for the next five years. Geratherm is the only supplier of tactical medical equipment outside of the US that was taken into account in the Special Operations Forces (SOF) budget.

Even the Cardio segment performed favorably at a low level with an 18.7 % sales growth. The Respiratory segment showed a clear increase in sales of 41.1 %.

Sales by segments 1/1 to 6/30/2012

Earnings Situation

Geratherm Medical's earnings situation from business operations experienced a considerably below-average development during the past six months. As already mentioned, the main reason is the weak demand for gallium products and the resulting temporary increase in inventory, which in turn has led to significantly low earnings. The lack of earnings from the sales of gallium-filled thermometers resulted in a lower gross profit (-17.5 %) compared to the same period last year. The gross margin decreased from 65.4 % to 58.5 %. The gross profit (EBITDA) dropped to 545 kEUR (-56.8 %) during the course of the first six months.

Amortization and depreciation increased by 12.6 % to 372 kEUR due to the higher investments and write-offs for development costs.

The operating result (EBIT) decreased to 173 kEUR for the first six months of the current fiscal year (2011: 930 kEUR). The decrease in the quality of earnings can be attributed to the weak sales and the increase of gallium-filled thermometers in stock, which have a lower valuation compared to last year due to the drop in gallium prices.

Geratherm managed to post a favorable net financial result of 369 kEUR during the first six months of 2012. All in all, the result from ordinary business activities amounted to 542 kEUR (-65.2 %) during the first six months of the current fiscal year. Income taxes weigh on the result with 98 kEUR.

The consolidated net profit amounted to 444 kEUR (2011: 1,202 kEUR). Geratherm Medical posted a net result of 453 kEUR less the net result for minority interests in the amount of -9 kEUR (2011: -132 kEUR) during the first six months of 2012. The result per share is 9 EUR cent (2011: 27 EUR cents).

Net Assets and Financial Situation

Geratherm Medical continues to enjoy a favorable asset situation. At the end of the first six months of 2012, the balance sheet total was a total EUR 23.3 million (2011: EUR 24.6 million) and is essentially formed by equity capital. The company's equity capital amounted to EUR 17.5 million (2011: EUR 18.7 million) as of June 30, 2012. The equityto-assets ratio represents 75 % of the balance sheet total. The return on equity was 5.2 % (2011: 13.9 %) for the first six months of the current fiscal year. As of June 30, 2012, the company had cash, cash equivalents and securities in the amount of EUR 7.9 million (2011: EUR 11.2 million) Thus, the company has a solid financial position, even in light of the current temporary weak earnings.

With regard to long-term assets, development costs were written off in the amount of 121 kEUR. The assets held in in property, plant and equipment increased by 7.0 % to EUR 4.0 million.

Inventories increased from EUR 6.0 million to EUR 6.2 million compared to the same period last year. Receivables and other assets remained with EUR 3.4 million on the same level as the same period last year. As of June 30, 2012, the company held securities worth EUR 4.9 million (2011: EUR 5.3 million). The cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 3.0 million (2011: EUR 4.2 million).

The gross cash flow for the first six months was 472 kEUR (2011: 1,175 kEUR). The cash flow from operations decreased considerably from 1,404 kEUR to 135 kEUR. The cash flow from investment activities was favorable with 103 kEUR (2011: -871 kEUR).

Research and Development

The research and development activities of Geratherm Medical mainly focus on the relatively new business segments Warming Systems, Respiratory and Cardio/Stroke. In the Healthcare Diagnostic segment, the regulatory hurdles are becoming more and more complex such that clinical trials have also become a necessity for new products.

We are pleased to announce that after our many years of development the results of the clinical study conducted at the Universität Heidelberg was published in early August in the "Stroke Journal", the official voice of the American Heart Association.

Staff

The Geratherm Group had a staff of 143 persons in total as of June 30, 2012 (2011: 135). 78.5 % of the staff is employed in Germany.

Outlook

Due to the weak demand for gallium-filled thermometers, we have decreased production by 30 % at the plant in Thuringia. Workforce was also adapted accordingly. With regard to costs, the burden resulting from adjusting capacity levels will be dispensed with after August 2012.

For the second half of the fiscal year, we are anticipating the demand for gallium-filled thermometers to recover. Sales dynamics in newly industrializing countries, where Geratherm is active, is expected to continue. By publishing the atrial fibrillation study, we are anticipating a significant increase in the number of stroke prevention centers joining the system.

The quality of earnings is likely to increase again during the second half of 2012. Based on current information, we will not attain the result from operating activities as posted for 2011. We still expect a considerably higher financial result compared to last year.

The general meeting of shareholders took place on June 8, 2012 in Munich, Germany. All items on the agenda were discussed and adopted by our shareholders at the annual general meeting. The shareholders in attendance represented 62.76 % of the share capital.

Geschwenda, August 2012

Notes on Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the Period from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012

Accounting and Valuation Methods

The interim consolidated financial statements of Geratherm Medical AG were prepared for the six months of the 2012 fiscal year in accordance with the rules of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) valid on the date of the financial statements and in consideration of the guidance provided by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC), as is mandatory in the European Union.

The accounting, evaluation and consolidation principles were maintained, as shown in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for 2011 Fiscal Year.

The valuation of assets and liabilities is based in part on estimates and/or assumptions about future developments. For instance, the statements on economic useful life for long-term assets are based on estimates and assumptions. In addition, the assessment of the intrinsic value of deferred taxation allocated to the losses carried forward and the impairment tests of the cash-generating units and the assets is based on the corporate planning, which of course involves uncertainties such that the actual values may deviate from the made assumptions and estimates in individual cases. Estimates and the underlying assumptions are regularly checked and evaluated with regard to possible impact on accounting.

Consolidated Group

No changes in the consolidation group have occurred during the first six months of 2012.

Equity Capital

.

The development of the equity capital is shown in the consolidated statement of change to the shareholders' equity.

The subscribed capital of Geratherm Medical AG amounts all in all to EUR 4,949,999 as at 6/30/2012 (2011: EUR 4,949,999) and is divided into 4,949,999 (2011: 4,949,999) share certificates issued to the bearers. The subscribed capital has been paid in full. As of the reporting date there were no shares held by the company.

The shareholders of Geratherm Medical AG have agreed during the annual general meeting of the company on June 8, 2012 in Munich to distribute a dividend of 0.30 EUR per individual share.
