Interim Financial Report as of September 30, 2009 InVision Software AG

Overview

InVision Software at a glance

In 1995 InVision Software was formed with a mission to provide every company with the best possible solution to its workforce management issues. InVision has never lost sight of this goal and has since become one of the global leaders in workforce management solutions and frequently sets technological trends in this field.

By using the InVision Software Group's products, the Group's international customers are able to optimise their staff deployment and increase productivity. At the same time, they can reduce planning and administrative costs and significantly improve employee motivation. Thus, investments made in workforce management solutions as a rule can be amortised within a few months, thereby yielding an impressive return on investment.

Group Management Report

Group Management Report to the Interim Financial Report as of September 30, 2009, according to IFRS (unaudited)

Specific events during the reporting period

As from January 2, 2009, InVision Software AG took over a stake of 51 percent in the operational business of the US consulting company Core Practice LLC, Lisle, Illinois, via its subsidiary InVision Consulting International GmbH, Baar. With this acquisition, the Company pursues the strengthening of its presence on the North American market as well as the enforcement of its international consulting business.

On January 12, 2009, InVision Holding GmbH, Ratingen, purchased 246,192 shares of InVision Software AG and thereby is the largest single shareholder of the Company.

In the first nine months of the year 2009, the software solution InVision Enterprise WFM received four industry awards: The American trade publication "Customer Inter@ction Solutions" honoured the InVision solution as "Product of the Year 2008" and presented InVision Software with the "CRM Excellence Award". In the course of its competition "Top-Produkt Handel 2009", the German business magazine for retail "handelsjournal" awarded InVision with the bronze medal within the category "Process Optimisation". For the second year in a row, the analyst firm Frost&Sullivan honoured InVision Software for its Competitive Strategy Leadership in Agent Performance Optimisation in the EMEA region.

Results of operation

In the first nine months of 2009, Group revenues totaled TEUR 9,159 (previous year: TEUR 8,655) and were therefore 6 percent higher than in the previous year. This rise was primarily

the result of a 34 percent increase of licence revenues up to TEUR 3,531 (previous year: TEUR 2,639) as well as a 28 percent increase of maintenance revenues up to TEUR 3,273 (previous year: TEUR 2,547). Service revenues decreased by 32 percent down to TEUR 2,355 (previous year: TEUR 3,469).

Revenues in the "Germany, Austria and Switzerland" region increased during the reporting period by 7 percent to TEUR 3,907 (previous year: TEUR 3,655). This region therefore makes up 43 percent of revenues (previous year: 42 percent). Revenues generated in other foreign countries totaled TEUR 5,252 (previous year: TEUR 5,000), thereby representing an increase of 5 percent. Revenues generated in other foreign countries as a percentage of total revenue thus constitute 57 percent (previous year: 58 percent).

During the reporting period, the operating result (EBIT) was TEUR -4,185 (previous year: TEUR -5,996). The EBIT margin was -46 percent during the reporting period (previous year: -69 percent).

For the first nine months of 2009, the Group result was TEUR -3,104 (previous year: TEUR -3,779), while earnings per share came to EUR -1.39 (previous year: EUR -1.69), in each case based on 2,235,000 shares.

Financial condition

During the reporting period, the liquid funds and securities were down to TEUR 6,389 (as of December 31, 2008: TEUR 12,211), primarily because of the negative cash flow generated from operating activity. As of end of September 2009, financial liabilities were TEUR 178 (as of December 31, 2008: TEUR 211).

The balance sheet total equalled TEUR 17,609 (as of December 31, 2008: TEUR 21,402). The equity capital is now TEUR 12,768 (as of December 31, 2008: TEUR 15,691), and the equity capital ratio is now 73 percent (as of December 31, 2008: 73 percent). The equity capital therefore provides a solid basis for the continued growth of the Company.

The cash flow from operating activity reached TEUR -5,600 (previous year: TEUR -3,685) during the reporting period.

Research and development

For InVision, the continued improvement of its software and its development of new components in order to meet market needs are key competitive factors. Accordingly, the InVision Group attaches great importance to research and development.

Not surprisingly, therefore, InVision is constantly investing in the development of its product lines for its enterprise-wide workforce management solution, InVision Enterprise WFM.

In the first nine months of 2009, most of the activity was focused on the final development work for Release 4.7 of InVision Enterprise WFM, which is shipped since July of 2009. The Release 4.7 includes more than 100 new product features with numerous detail improvements.

Employees

On September 30, 2009, the InVision Group employed 213 workers worldwide, thereof 32 in sales, 90 in research & development, and 66 in Professional Services. Thus, the number of employees has declined by 11.6 percent in the last nine months (December 31, 2008: 241 employees). 89 employees worked in Germany and 124 employees worked outside Germany.

Risks and opportunities

Risks for the business development of InVision Group are described in the Group Management Report for Fiscal Year 2008. The corresponding opportunities are described in the Outlook section of this management report and in the Group Management Report for Fiscal Year 2008.

Outlook

InVision's plans for 2009 remain unchanged and the Company expects a significant increase in revenues as well as an EBIT of app. EUR -2.2 million for the fiscal year 2009.
