Visible progress in company transformation in Germany, Spanish DA market decrease slightly softening

  • • Market decline in classic DA has been compensated only to minor extend by higher revenues per call
  • • Lower profitability due to lower topline and underproportional reduction of fix costs

  • •Increase of Media revenues +23 %

  • • YoY - improvement of profitability is expected to increase in H2 vs. H1

  • Dividend payment of 0.50 €/share (or 9.55 m€) as of 30.06.2011

*excluding impact from fixed term deposits & financial assets available for sale Æ changes of fixed term deposits >3 months are reported as part of investing cash-flow (IAS 7.16), 3 months or less as part of operating cash-flow
