Günter Spahn, Chairman of the Management Board
To the shareholders and friends of our company
Fiscal year 2001/2002 commenced in an extremely positive manner for Amadeus AG.Within the first week, two acquisitions were successfully concluded.Amadeus thus expanded its service range to cover executive search in Germany and executive search, permanent placement, interim management and temporary staffing for finance and accounting in England.The services in England correspond exactly to the services offered by the Amadeus subsidiary FiRe AG with the addition of executive search.
Economic activities have slowed significantly worldwide. Gross domestic product has fallen continuously in recent months.As a result of the tragic terror attacks in September 2001 in New York, the economy as a whole has also worsened dramatically in Germany. Entire industries and service providers (aeronautics, tourism) experienced enormous slumps and the German economy's hope of a soft landing following a short recession became an illusion.
In the same measure, the human resource services sector was also not able to escape these economic trends. Experts estimated a decline of business for the fourth quarter of 2001 and the first quarter of 2002 of approximately 15 per cent.As a specialist service provider, we have yet to be able to exploit the positive effects of the "JOB-AQTIV-Gesetz", a new law to promote employment, and the further liberalization in the areas of temporary employment and permanent placement. However, we expressly welcome all deregulation measures and emphatically support human resource services providers being put on an equal footing with other businesses.
In this extremely difficult economic climate,Amadeus AG has once again asserted itself excellently and continued on its successful course.We are proud to once again this year present you with record results.
We have further extended our position as a specialist human resource services provider.The range of additional benefits thanks to complementary services is proving to be the correct strategy. Since the IPO in March 1999, we have almost tripled sales and actually managed to triple net income for the year. Once again this year, we will propose to the annual shareholders' meeting that 50 per cent of consolidated income be distributed to the shareholders.After 33 cents in the prior year, this would be a dividend of 42 cents for the fiscal year.An increase of more than 27 per cent corresponds to a dividend yield at a share price of EUR 18 of 2,33 per cent.
With our temporary staffing, interim/project management and permanent placement services in finance and accounting, we have encouragingly increased our market share to 16 per cent through our group company FiRe AG and thus extended and consolidated market leadership in Germany.We were also able to increase our market share as a human resource services provider for commercial and specialist staff.
During the fiscal year, we consistently continued our strategy of offering our customers comprehensive solutions. Föhr Human Resources offers executive search focusing on general management, commercial management and on the Group's main area: finance and accounting.
With our new English subsidiary Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd., Birmingham we now are also able to offer human resource services to international companies in England. Greenwell & Gleeson has also further extended its market leadership for human resource services in finance and accounting in the Midlands and, with an excellent result in its first year of consolidation, has made an outstanding contribution.The development of Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss GmbH & Co. KG, one of the most renowned private training institutes in the area of finance and accounting and market leader for education of certified accountants, has also been positive. For the first time we were able to achieve a slightly positive annual result with our Dutch subsidiary Amadeus Personeelsdiensten B.V.,Amsterdam. Our Austrian subsidiary commenced operations in the last quarter and has already achieved initial sales. We disposed of our holding in Amadeus IT Consulting GmbH at the end of March and have thus reacted to the consolidation taking place within the SAP sector.
This is the motto of this year's annual report.Amadeus has excellent potential with motivated, committed and talented members of staff who successfully identify with the strategic objectives of their company.The focus of our daily work continues to be our customers whose satisfaction is our goal.
Even though Amadeus AG is a young company we are still not totally satisfied with our level of market recognition. During the IPO in 1999 we had started to intensify our public relations work. Our Internet presence was completely redesigned last year and launched in January 2002. Since then the group companies' page impressions have increased dramatically to over 100.000 per month. Sports were also sponsored for the first time in 2001. Particularly, our sponsorship activities in recent months with the successful second leaque soccer team I. FSV Mainz 05 provided us with an overwhelmingly positive media presence. There were reports on the promotion battle on an almost daily basis and our company logo, as the main sponsor, was increasingly to be seen. Sponsorship activities to increase market recognition will also continue to be a key focus in our company, since we feel certain that soccer will remain a positive advertising medium in the future.
As expected, the first weeks of the new fiscal year are going well. We are extremely confident and will do everything in our power to realize our ambitious objective of increasing sales by approximately 13,5 per cent to EUR 74m.We would thereby further increase our market share in a stagnant market.
We are investing in the operating business in an anticyclical manner and will open branches for executive search in Düsseldorf and Munich.A second branch is also to be opened in England. In our core business we are concentrating on further developing our national and international offices.
National growth, further development and integration of subsidiaries will be the central tasks of the management of the Amadeus Group in the current year.As of April 1, 2002, we have expanded the Management Board and have gained an experienced Management Board member as Manager of Operations; he will manage the day-to-day operations of the Amadeus/FiRe companies in Germany,The Netherlands and Austria.We will force forward acquisition activities and strive for participations in and acquisitions of companies with a specialist human resource services portfolio.
We sincerely thank all our employees in Germany, England,The Netherlands and Austria who, through their specialist competence, professional dedication and identification with our company, form the basis for our success. Our thanks also goes to our control committees for their constructive and creative cooperation.We would also like to express our thanks to our customers, business associates and shareholders for their support and for the trust they have placed in Amadeus AG.
Yours faithfully,
CEO & Chairman of the Board

Gerd B. von Below, Chairman of the Supervisory Board
In fiscal year 2001/2002, the Supervisory Board performed the tasks incumbent on it in accordance with the law and articles of incorporation. It monitored the management of the Company.The Management Board reported to us in Supervisory Board meetings and we were also provided with oral reports on the position and development of the Company.
Six meetings of the Supervisory Board were held in the fiscal year. In this regard, we discussed the business situation of the Company, the strategic focus, the opportunities for development and the business risks in detail with the Management Board.
One focus here were the consequences for the risk management system in the Group and the requirements on the internal control system pursuant to the Law on Control and Transparency in Business (KonTraG).
The measures requiring approval by the Supervisory Board in accordance with the articles of incorporation and/or the law were approved by the Supervisory Board.
As of April 1, 2002, Mr. Christian Schreiter was appointed Deputy Member of the Management Board and took over the responsibilities for operating activities.
At his own request, Mr. Rudolf Locker withdrew from the Supervisory Board effective as of September 30, 2001.With resolution by Frankfurt Regional Court on November 20, 2001, Mr. Hartmut van der Straeten was appointed member of the Supervisory Board.
Arthur Andersen Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft mbH, Eschborn, appointed by the shareholders' meeting, audited the individual financial statements and management report of Amadeus AG Personal-Dienstleister und Solution Provider, prepared in accordance with German accounting regulations, and the consolidated financial statements and group management
report for the period from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002, prepared in accordance with IAS, and rendered an unqualified opinion thereon.
The corresponding audit reports were available to the Supervisory Board when it met to discuss the financial statements.The auditors attended the meeting of the Supervisory Board and reported on the main findings of their audit of the financial statements, the corresponding management reports and of the system of internal controls.The Supervisory Board noted and approved the auditors' reports.
The Supervisory Board
The following committees existed in fiscal year 2001/2002:
Four meetings of the Personnel Comittee and two meetings of the Accounting and Audit Committee were held.
The General and Strategic Committee currently has no members. The tasks will be performed by the entire Supervisory Board until further notice.
The Supervisory Board wishes to extend its thanks to the Management Board and to the employees for the extremely successful work, the high level of commitment and the positive results in the year 2001/2002.
We wish to express special thanks to our customers and shareholders for the trust they have placed in Amadeus AG.
Frankfurt/Main, June 17, 2002 For the Supervisory Board:
Gerd B. von Below Chairman of the Supervisory Board

The business strategy of the Amadeus Group as a specialist human resource services provider is even proving itself in the midst of economic recession.We are one of the most successful and dynamically growing human resource services provider in Germany. Despite negative growth within the sector, we have managed to again produce double-figure sales and income growth.The guarantee of success is the unique positioning of the Amadeus Group which has been well accepted by customers, employees and the capital market.
We started off with a temporary staffing service for finance and accounting and were the first specialists in this area in Germany. This was followed by permanent placement and then by interim management in 1996 as the first complementary human resource services.With this portfolio, together with our subsidiary FiRe AG, we are the clear market leader for finance and accounting in Germany. In recent years, we have continuously extended our market leadership.
Also in 1996,Amadeus AG positioned itself as a supplier of temporary staffing and permanent placement services for commercial specialists and executives achieving a considerable market share in a relatively short space of time.
The outstanding development with sales and income doubling annually encouraged us to go public in March 1999.The IPO was an immense success with the share being over subscribed more than 30-times.The issue proceeds enabled us to tackle our communicated business strategy as a specialist human resource services provider with complementary services and an international focus.We have since been working to successfully implement our strategy.

Temporary Staffing 64% Permanent Placement 6% Interim-/Project Management 15% Executive Search 3% Training & Education 8% IT-Consulting 4%
Our range of services has been extended through circumspect acquisitions/investments.The subsidiary Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss is the specialist school for tax, accounting and controlling training and is the market leader for education of certified accountants.As a result of the frequent and extensive changes to tax law and the international focus of accounting at companies, employees are very much encouraged to gain constant further training. Graduates of Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss have received state-of-the-art training and therefore have ideal career opportunities in the area of finance and accounting. Föhr Human Resources (page 11 of the company portrait) is an executive search company whose consulting services and focus on finance and IT match excellently to the core business. In addition to the subsidiaries in Amsterdam and Vienna, Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd. (page 12 of the company portrait) is the third international company in the Amadeus Group. With Greenwell & Gleeson, we are the market leader in finance and accounting in the Midlands with executive search, permanent placement, interim management and temporary staffing services.
We will continue this strategy and also in the future aim to grow significantly quicker than the market. On a national level, we will mainly develop organically; internationally, further participations/acquisitions are planned.
We are constantly focused on the quality of our human resource services, concentrating on our customers and their satisfaction.
Föhr Human Resources (FHR) has been a member of the Amadeus Group since April 2, 2001.The company operates in the area of executive search and in directly approaching executives.
The focus lies in the areas of general management and commercial management positions, specifically in the areas of finance and IT. FHR also provides consulting in all matters relating to personnel marketing. It is one of the company's principles to provide competent, open and transparent consulting for both sides and to optimally consider the requests and requirements of all involved.
Föhr Human Resources was founded over ten years ago. Like Amadeus AG, the company is also based in Frankfurt/Main.The professional services of the new subsidiary match excellently to the core competencies of the group companies. Interim management in finance and accounting, in particular, in which the group subsidiary FiRe GmbH is the market leader, offers outstanding opportunities for both sides.
Experienced staff and consultants support FHR in searching for highly qualified personnel and provide assistance in making the best choice.
Amadeus AG is thereby successfully continuing its strategy of providing its customers with comprehensive solutions and complementary services, also in the high qualification sector.
These services are to be extended across Germany with the new branches of Föhr Human Resources Personalberatung GmbH soon to be opened in Düsseldorf and Munich.
Greenwell & Gleeson Limited, Birmingham, has been a member of the Amadeus Group since April 4, 2001.As a supplier of professional recruitment services in finance and accounting, the Amadeus Group has gained a competent and extremely successful partner in England.
The structure of Greenwell & Gleeson is very similar to that of FiRe in Germany; this means that new possibilities and synergies will be opened up, in particular for internationally operating customers of the Amadeus Group.
Greenwell & Gleeson Limited has been operating in Birmingham for seven years. Birmingham forms the heart of the Midlands and in recent years has developed from a place of heavy industry to a modern and a bustling business city.
The two company founders, David Greenwell and Tony Gleeson, started with permanent placement services, specializing in the areas of finance and accounting. Customers were later offered temporary staffing solutions.Today, the service portfolio comprises executive search, permanent placement, interim and project management and temporary staffing services. Greenwell & Gleeson has rapidly risen to become the market leader for human resource services in finance and accounting in the Midlands.
A team of young, highly motivated consultants, all of whom possess training in finance, form the basis for the success.The employees are therefore able to exactly understand the requirements of all sides and to provide competent consulting. Greenwell & Gleeson has numerous active links to candidates and customers. Thanks to close contact and individual consulting, a high level of satisfaction among candidates and customers is achieved, a fundamental advantage in a highly trust-based business.
Germany and England can look back on an extremely successful first year of cooperation.
Greenwell & Gleeson Limited plans to continue its past successes. As a member of the Amadeus Group, the company is able to further force expansion in England and to take on an increasingly international focus.
As the market leader in the Midlands, Greenwell & Gleeson has so far been exclusively active on a regional level. During the coming years, the company plans to develop from a local supplier to a nationally represented service provider. In fiscal year 2002/2003, expansion in England will commence with the setting up of a branch in Manchester.
Again the opportunities offered by an international group are to be exploited. Most of the Amadeus Group's customers operate internationally.The same applies to many companies operating in England. The good customer relations on both sides of the English Channel are to be exploited further in order to supply cross-border finance and accounting solutions and to benefit from synergy effects.
KUNDENSTRUKTUR UND KOMPETENZEN

The slowdown in economic growth which set in during the fourth quarter of 2000, putting German gross domestic product (GDP) at 1,5 per cent, continued in 2001 with growth in real terms coming to 0,6 per cent according to calculations by the Federal Statistical Office (prior year: 3,0 per cent).This was the weakest economic growth recorded in Germany since 1993.
The situation of the overall economy deteriorated further in the middle of calendar year 2001.The leading industrial nations have all been hit by a recession at the same time.The terrible events of September 11, 2001 exacerbated the economic crisis, resulting in negative GDP growth of 0,1 per cent in the fourth calendar quarter of 2001. General economic conditions remained largely unchanged at the beginning of calendar year 2002.An economic recovery is not yet in sight and leading economists do not expect a turnaround until the second half of the calendar year at the earliest.The German government expects 0,75 per cent GDP growth for calendar year 2002.

The Amadeus Group clearly stands out from the competition with steady organic sales growth at high levels of profitability.This positive trend in a fiercely competitive sector can be traced back to the Group's positioning as a specialist human resource services and solution provider; the Company has been quick to gear itself to more high-quality demand, and thus to be less dependent on economic fluctuations.
The human resource services sector experienced extremely dynamic growth in the past. Between 1993 and 2000, the volume of sales increased from EUR 2b to over EUR 6b p.a. Growth slowed down significantly for the first time in 2001, coming to approx. 2 per cent for calendar year 2001. It is expected that the market will decline by some 15 per cent in the period from January to March 2002. For the fiscal year of Amadeus AG (April 1 to March 31), this means negative market growth of some 5 per cent. Hence the sales volume of the industry as a whole will continue to be approx. EUR 6b. Finance and accounting as well as skilled administration account for some EUR 1,0 b (16 per cent) of the entire personnel services market.
Despite the weak growth of the industry in 2001 and the cautious expectations for 2002, experts' long-term estimates are optimistic for the human resource services industry. Market growth for 2002 is expected to be some 0 to 5 per cent, while average annual growth of 13 to 21 per cent is forecast for Germany in the period from 1998 to 2010.
The reasons for the industry's good prospects in comparison to the economy as a whole can be put down to the following factors:
Specializing in qualified staff and executives in the commercial field,Amadeus is extremely well positioned due to its clear focus on these core competencies and its "human resource services and solution provider" strategy. In the past fiscal year,Amadeus increased its market share of the professions relevant to the Amadeus Group by some 5,5 per cent. It subsidiary FiRe AG further extended its market leadership to a share in excess of 16 per cent. FiRe AG, with its subsidiary FiRe Outsourcing GmbH, is the first specialist for highly qualified personnel and interim/project managers in finance and accounting with experience in national and international accounting (IAS, US GAAP).The demand for highly qualified specialists will increase as the requirements for enterprise accounting continue to rise.The main reasons for this trend are the high demands placed on external reporting by the capital market and the efforts to make International Accounting Standards compulsory throughout the European Union for consolidated financial statements and financial statements of listed companies by 2005 at the latest.The Amadeus Group will capture an above-average share of this market growth.




The Group continued its successful development of business in fiscal year 2001/2002, closing the year with record results. In the past fiscal year, consolidated sales revenues amounted to EUR 68,9m (prior year: EUR 48,9m).This is an increase of 41,0 per cent.The increase in sales excluding the acquisitions and participations made in the past two fiscal years 2000/2001 and 2001/2002 (Amadeus IT Consulting GmbH, Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss GmbH & Co. KG, Föhr Human Resources GmbH and Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd.) was 21,1 per cent as opposed to the negative growth of the industry as a whole of some 5 per cent.The reasons for the sales growth are the consistent specialization and alignment of the Group as a human resource services and solution provider.
Thanks to the high degree of specialization and exacting quality standards, our gross profit also rose by 40,8 per cent to EUR 27,3m. The gross profit margin remained virtually unchanged at 39,58 per cent versus 39,65 per cent in the prior year.The difficult economic situation, especially in the last six months of the fiscal year, made it impossible to maintain the gross profit margins of the temporary staffing service at the same high level as in the prior year.
EBITA (earnings before interest, tax and goodwill amortization) in the fiscal year came to EUR 8,8m (prior year: EUR 6,4m).This is an increase of 37,0 per cent.
Consolidated net income is EUR 4,3m (prior year: EUR 2,9m after adjustment of the calculation of deferred taxes in accordance with IAS 12 in conjunction with IAS 8.49), and thus increased by 46,7 per cent.
This result was achieved despite high investment in the development and infrastructure of new and existing offices. Investments in the fiscal year amounted to EUR 2,5m (prior year: EUR 1,7m). Offices were opened in Mönchengladbach and Bielefeld in the second quarter of the fiscal year and in Oberursel, Hanau and Karlsruhe in the third quarter. In December 2001 Amadeus Group commenced operations in Vienna,Austria.
On March 27, 2002, the Amadeus Group parted with its 51 per cent investment in Amadeus IT Consulting GmbH.The Amadeus Group did so in response to the consolidation taking place in the SAP consulting sector and will now concentrate on expanding existing services.
As of March 31, 2002, the Group operates at 20 national locations and three international locations in Birmingham,Amsterdam and Vienna. Furthermore it helds participations in Steuer-Fachschule Endriss KG and Föhr Human Resources GmbH.
The new branches contributed EUR 1,0m (prior year: EUR 1,1m) to sales and caused start-up losses of EUR 0,6m (prior year: EUR 0,6m).
As of the balance sheet date the Company has cash and cash equivalents of EUR 18,8m (prior year: EUR 17,1m) at its disposal, EUR 15,6m of which has been invested in short-term time deposit accounts.These cash and cash equivalents form the basis for financing acquisitions.
Net Income in € m

The clear focus on the group companies' core competencies has proven to be successful. The Group's strategy as a human resource services and solution provider specializing in finance and accounting is being developed further.As a solution provider offering customers temporary staffing services, interim/project management, permanent placement, education & training and executive search, Amadeus Group provides complementary services and is currently represented in four European countries.

Revenues in this area increased to EUR 43,9m in the fiscal year (of which EUR 0,9m in England) after EUR 33,8m in the prior fiscal year.This represents an increase of 29,7 per cent.Temporary staffing services accounted for 63,7 per cent of total sales (prior year 69,2 per cent).
This service, which is primarily performed by the subsidiary FiRe GmbH Outsourcing and external controlling, and which deploys highly qualified interim and project managers for executive tasks and special projects (both nationally and internationally), generated sales in the fiscal year of EUR 10,1m (of which EUR 0,9m in England) as opposed to EUR 9,2 in the prior year.This represents an increase of 9,5 per cent. It contributed 14,6 per cent to total sales (prior year: 18,8 per cent).

Interim-/ Project Management in € m

Sales amounted to EUR 4,0m (of which EUR 1,2m in England). EUR 2,2m was generated in the prior year.This represents an increase in sales of 80,6 per cent.This high-income service sector accounts for 5,8 per cent of sales (prior year: 4,5 per cent).
The results of the tax college Steuer-Fachschule Endriss KG are now included in the consolidated financial statements of Amadeus AG for the first full fiscal year. Revenue from finance and accounting training came to EUR 5,3m.The prior year's financial statements only included the quarter from January to March 2001 with sales revenue of EUR 1,2m. Endriss KG accounts for 7,7 per cent of total sales for the fiscal year.
This service is being offered through the new subsidiaries Föhr Human Resources GmbH, Frankfurt and Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd., Birmingham, for the first time. Sales amounted to EUR 2,2m (of which EUR 0,7m in England).This new service contributed 3,3 per cent of sales.
IT consulting generated sales of EUR 3,4m (prior year: EUR 2,4m), accounting for 4,8 per cent of total sales. IT consulting services are no longer offered following the sale of Amadeus IT Consulting GmbH.

For a human resource services company in a competitive personnel market, first-class, motivated and committed employees are our most important asset.This is also the case in difficult economic periods in which there are still excellent work opportunities for qualified applicants, especially in our field of finance and accounting.To enable us to attain our ambitious sales and profit targets and to further extend our specialization, personnel recruiting and marketing activities are a strategic factor to succeed.
We shifted our recruiting activities to the internet to an increasing degree in fiscal year 2001/2002.The Amadeus Group redesigned the internet site for all group companies and offers qualified work opportunities in some 600 current job advertisements.Visits to the homepages have risen dramatically since the relaunch.We are registering over 15.000 hits on our Career Opportunities pages each month. Our campaigns "employees win new employees" and recommendations are highly successful.We participated in a total of 25 recruiting fairs and graduate congresses.
Courses in the SAP R/3™ standard modules and MS Office applications are held by different training institutes for our external employees.They can also train as accountants qualified to prepare balance sheets according to German and European standards and as controllers at our tax college.
Our internal staff (area managers, senior consultants, consultants) participate in a basic training, interview technique seminars, sales and management seminars and receive tailored training in finance and accounting from our tax college.This allows our internal staff to ensure high quality standards.The employees of the central departments receive individual training for their area of responsibility from external training institutes.
The strategy of the Amadeus Group – focusing on the highly qualified commercial segment – is underlined by the qualifications of our external employees.At Amadeus, some 70 per cent of all external staff have passed university-entrance examinations or have a university or college degree and approximately 30 per cent have a commercial qualification.This sets us apart from the rest of the industry and emphasizes the Group's demands on the quality of its human resource services.
The national and international expansion of the Amadeus Group is opening up outstanding professional development and promotion opportunities for its workforce thanks to internal job advertising.
The philosophy of Amadeus AG is to deploy external staff in accordance with their qualifications. Staff are given constant, and individual support by Amadeus Group consultants during their assignments. They receive competitive and performance-based compensation.
An annual average of 1.102 people were employed at Amadeus AG (prior year: 795).This represents an increase of 38,6 per cent.The number of external employees increased from an annual average of 682 in fiscal year 2000/2001 to an average of 926 for fiscal year 2001/2002, representing an increase of 35,8 per cent.The number of internal employees rose from 113 to 176; this corresponds to an increase of 55,8 per cent.We invested in internal personnel to develop the existing and new branches. Furthermore in human resources, marketing, sales controlling and IT in order to safeguard the quality of consulting and to enable expansion.

The organizational structure in the Group's companies is efficient and streamlined.The currently 20 national offices are allocated to the regions Rhine-Main-Neckar,West, South and North, each under the control of an experienced area manager.As of April 1, 2002 the Management Board has a new member who is responsible for the function of manager operations and heads and provides support to the regional managers.
Due to the fact that the branches concentrate on sales and marketing, the order situation is good despite the persistently weak economic enviroment.Acquisition activities in the branches are documented and evaluated on a weekly basis in sales reports.
The affiliated companies are headed by competent, motivated general managers who act in accordance with the company philosophy as "entrepreneurs in the enterprise".As planned, the central service areas were expanded in the course of the fiscal year.
The Amadeus Group has thus geared itself to future growth with effective management.
Employees in management positions share in the Company's overall success through the stock option plan.
Contrary to the trend of the overall market for personnel services, the Amadeus Group expects to grow by some 14 per cent in fiscal year 2002/2003.This is based on economic growth for 2002 of some 0,75 per cent. It is relatively difficult to quantify the probability that the upturn expected in the third quarter of the calendar year will materialize. Results well in excess of the industry average in the past fiscal year are proof that the Amadeus Group is able to stand up to negative trends in the general economy and to industry-specific effects and is less susceptible to cyclical developments than the staffing industry as a whole.
A lengthy recession would, however, affect the sales and earnings of the Amadeus Group, and the Group would respond by adjusting costs.
In the market for human resource services, the Amadeus Group is positioned as a specialist with complementary services in an overall market characterized by mass business in which the white collar area accounts for some 75 per cent. Due to its specialization, the business model of complementary services and the highly fragmented temporary staffing market, there are few competitors at the highly qualified end of the market. Due to the customer structure of the Amadeus Group, where no single customer accounts for more than 1 per cent of total sales, there are no risks regarding customer dependency.
The qualifications of external employees are critical for operations and the success of the Amadeus Group.The establishment of a human resource department whose main task is to promote employee development and the reorganization of an appraisal system will further improve employees qualifications even as operations expand as scheduled.
Legal risks center on the permit to hire out employees on a temporary basis. Unlimited permits were granted by the State Labor Office to Amadeus on December 28, 1994 and to FiRe AG on December 14, 1993.The Amadeus Group has performed scheduled internal audits of operating activities, thereby minimizing legal risks such as compliance with the provisions of the Personnel Leasing Act (AÜG) in a highly restrictive business environment.The most recent internal audits by the State Labor Office took place on January 28, 1998 for Amadeus AG and on October 28, 1998 for FiRe AG. No objections were raised.The internal audits and employee training will be stepped up in fiscal year 2002/2003.
Investments in IT went towards establishing an IT infrastructure guaranteeing almost 100 per cent availability of the relevant systems. Data security is greater than 95 per cent as most data is maintained centrally and new firewall systems are used. IT support for the acquired companies is gradually being taken over by the central IT department.

The Amadeus Group has cash and cash equivalents of EUR 18,8m at its disposal as of the balance sheet date.This forms the basis for the purchase prices still to be paid for the companies acquired in the prior year. Coupled with the approved capital of EUR 0,9m, this also forms the basis for the scheduled expansion of operations and further acquisitions.
The Management Board does not expect any management risks as a result of the introduction of the area/regional management concept, personnel investments in area management and in particular the appointment of another member to the Management Board who will be responsible for operations. Contracts with members of the Management Board have terms of three to five years.
No other risks are apparent at present.
Subsidiary controlling has been enhanced as announced last year. The Group has a detailed internal control system and a new sales controlling system used to report to the Management Board at specified dates.The internal control system encompasses sales, personnel, finance, investor relations, IT and internal auditing.
In the past fiscal year the internal control system allowed negative market trends to be identified in time and communicated to shareholders without delay.
Based on the specific risks described, the existing risk management system and the current development of operating activities, the operations of the Amadeus Group are not exposed to any risks posing a threat to the going concern.
The human resource services industry does not expect any growth for 2002. Indeed, a slight decrease is more probable. Nevertheless, another comparable increase in sales by some 14 per cent to more than EUR 74m is expected for fiscal year 2002/2003 of the Amadeus Group which started on April 1, 2002. This increase in sales well in excess of market growth is based on the specialization of service offerings, the niche strategy of the Amadeus Group and the lower fluctuation in demand compared with the human resource services market as a whole due to general economic trends. Investments in operating activities will be made on a countercyclical basis.This is emphasized by the opening of two branches of Föhr Human Resources GmbH and the opening of the first branch of Greenwell & Gleeson in Manchester. Personnel investments to increase management capacities have taken place. In addition to the new Management Board member responsible for operations, personnel investments were made in human resources and controlling.The Company expects to generate slightly higher EBITA (earnings before interest, taxes and goodwill amortization) in fiscal year 2002/2003 of almost EUR 9m.

The growth strategy will focus on expanding the existing offices and building up the office in Austria.The implementation of an internally developed front-end software program in the 3rd/4th quarter 2002/ 2003 will enable the offices to handle daily operations with state-of-the-art information technology in an even more professional, efficient and transparent manner and to secure high quality standards.The integration of the young subsidiaries, the tax college Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss GmbH & Co. KG, the executive search company Föhr Human Resources GmbH and the English executive search and recruiting specialist for finance and accounting Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd. will continue. Growth will be underpinned by the international acquisition strategy, which is to make acquisitions of companies with a specialized human resource services portfolio.Acquisition activities will be stepped up.

The Amadeus share started into the new fiscal year on April 2, 2001 at a price of EUR 18,20 (Xetra).After excellent results for fiscal year 2000/2001 the price reached a level of between EUR 22 and EUR 23. In May and June the share achieved its annual high of EUR 23,60 on several occasions. In summer 2001 the share bowed to poor results of the human resource services industry in Europe and the United States and the fears of a recession.The price of the Amadeus share dropped despite the publication in July 2001 of exceedingly good results for the Amadeus Group for the first quarter. In August the drop leveled out at EUR 18. In September the Amadeus share suffered dramatic losses and was listed at its annual low of EUR 11,31 on September 25, 2001, less than its issue price of EUR 11,50 This shock was put right by the end of the second week in October. Subsequently the share price fluctuated in a range of between EUR 17 and EUR 19.The publication of an earnings forecast which had been adjusted downwards by 5 per cent in January 2002 did not trigger any notable movements. On the last day of trading in the fiscal year (March 28, 2002) the Amadeus share was listed at a closing price of EUR 18,10 (Xetra).
The Amadeus share is listed on the small cap index SMAX and the quality segment SDAX.With a share performance of minus 0,5 per cent between April 2001 and March 2002 the Amadeus share significantly outperformed the SMAX and SDAX, which dropped 17,0 per cent and 17,2 per cent, respectively. Since the IPO on March 4, 1999 the share price of Amadeus AG has risen from EUR 11,50 to EUR 18,10; that represents an increase of 57,4 per cent.
Deutsche Börse AG intends to reduce the SDAX to 50 stocks in June 2002.The Amadeus Group and its shareholders wish to remain in the smaller index.The financial community is likely to focus more closely on these 50 stocks when it comes to German small caps. It is highly probable that the Amadeus share will be included in the SDAX 50.
One of the criteria for the new composition of the SDAX 50 is the capitalization of free float.According to the definition of Deutsche Börse AG, 67 per cent of the shares of Amadeus AG is free float. The remaining 33 per cent is held by the company founders Günter Spahn, Georg Blinn, Hans H. Roolf and Rudolf Locker. The free float is distributed as follows: 13 per cent of total capital is held by family members of the company founders, 2 per cent by Endriss Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH. Most of the remaining 52 per cent is held by institutional investors.


In the fiscal years following the IPO (1999/2000 and 2000/2001) it was Amadeus AG's policy to share the Group's profits with its shareholders.Around half of the net income for each year was passed on to the shareholders in the form of a dividend.The Amadeus Group intends to retain this dividend policy and will propose the payment of a dividend of EUR 0,42 per share on its annual shareholders' meeting. This represents an increase of 27,3 per cent against the prior year. Based on a share price of EUR 18 this is equivalent to a dividend yield of 2,33 per cent.
During the ordinary annual shareholders' meeting for 2001 a further conditional capital increase of EUR 190.000 was approved to set up a new stock option plan.The Management Board and Supervisory Board are now entitled to grant stock options to Management Board members and employees of the entire Group.
The subsequent entitlement to exercise the stock options is linked to a performance target.The Amadeus share has to outperform the SDAX performance index by at least 10 per cent.This target is intended to create an additional incentive for employees to work towards the Group's success.
54.880 stock options had been granted from the new conditional capital by fiscal year-end.
Amadeus AG's transparent communication with its current and potential shareholders is based on a very timely reporting system allowing the provision of reports and information as fast, competently and comprehensively as possible. Apart from publishing annual and quarterly reports, the Company seeks and maintains contact with investors through special events, telephone conferences and personal meetings to inform investors about the current situation and expectations.
During the last fiscal year, investors in Germany, England, Scotland, France, the United States and The Netherlands were visited.
The Investor Relations pages of the website were redesigned in connection with Amadeus AG's internet relaunch (www.AmadeusAG.de).This gives those who are interested a current and comprehensive picture of the Amadeus Group and provides them with the opportunity to contact Amadeus AG directly.
The IR pages also provide the analysts' most recent recommendations for the Company.Amadeus AG is currently actively covered by five institutes (WestLB Panmure, Deutsche Bank, Dexia Securities, BNP Paribas and Independent Research), an aboveaverage coverage for an SDAX stock.

The consolidated financial statements of Amadeus AG for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 comply with the Standards of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) effective on the balance sheet date and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC, formally SIC).The financial statements of companies included in the consolidation have all been prepared on the basis of uniform accounting and valuation methods.The individual financial statements of the companies in which an investment is held have been prepared as of the balance sheet date of the consolidated financial statements.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 1 (Presentation of Financial Statements).
The deferred taxes recognized in the prior periods for claims for income tax reimbursement due to a tax reduction associated with the change pursuant to IAS 12 (revised 1996) were offset against retained earnings in accordance with IAS 8.49 in conjunction with IAS 12 (revised 2000). The comparable figures for the prior periods were adjusted.
As a public enterprise, the Company has made use of the provision in Sec. 292a of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and has prepared exempting consolidated financial statements in accordance with internationally accepted accounting standards as in the prior year.These consolidated financial statements have been drawn up in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRAS, formally IAS).
The consolidated financial statements comply with the 7th EC Directive based on Standard No. 1 (GAS 1) of the German Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
The main differences between financial statements prepared according to International Financial Reporting Standards and the provisions of the German Commercial Code (HGB) are:
The Company adopted IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IAS 40, Investment Property for the first time as of April 1, 2001.The introduction of IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement, and IAS 40, Investment Property, neither result in adjustments in retained earnings as of April 1, 2001 nor effects on the Company's financial statements as of March 31, 2002. Especially IAS 40, Investment Property, was not applicable to the fiscal year, since the company does not have any investment property.
The following subsidiaries in which the parent company holds the majority of voting rights either directly or indirectly have been included in the consolidated financial statements of Amadeus AG.

The net income for FiRe AG, FiRe GmbH and Amadeus Services GmbH is disclosed before profit and loss transfer to the parent in fiscal unity.The capital stock of the consolidated companies has been fully paid in.
Minority interests in equity and net income/loss are presented separately in the balance sheet and the income statement.
The Company applies the purchase method pursuant to IAS 27 for investments in subsidiaries.A subsidiary is included in the consolidated financial statements as of the date when Amadeus AG takes control of the subsidiary.Amadeus IT GmbH was deconsolidated upon termination of control over the subsidiary (March 27, 2002).
During consolidation, accounts receivable and payable between consolidated companies are fully eliminated, as are income and expenses within the Group.The income and expenses relate solely to profit transfer agreements, interest income and interest expenses from loan agreements as well as advertising and other administrative services.
The consolidated financial statements 2000/2001 were prepared for the first time in euros (reporting currency).Where the individual items have been stated at their prior year values, these have been translated at the official exchange rate of 1 Euro = 1,95583 German marks.
Pursuant to IAS 21 (The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates), the financial statements of Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd. have been translated to euros as a "foreign entity".Assets and liabilities are therefore translated at rates as of the balance sheet date, expenses and income at the annual average rate.The resulting currency translation differences were transferred to an adjustment item under equity.
A total of EUR 11.755k was invested in acquisitions in the fiscal year.
On April 2, 2001,Amadeus AG took a 75% stake in Föhr Human Resources Personalberatung GmbH in return of the issuance of a new share of EUR 153k in the acquired company with a premium of EUR 5.215k allocated to the capital reserve.The goodwill resulting from the investment including acquisition charges of EUR 1.434k is being amortized over the expected useful life of 10 years.
Amadeus AG acquired 100% of shares in Greenwell & Gleeson Ltd. on April 4, 2001.A purchase price totaling EUR 3.470k (GBP 2.160k) was paid, of which EUR 2.749k (GBP 1.710k) was paid in return for bonds. Due to the agreed earn-out period (April 1, 2001 – March 31, 2002), an additional purchase price of EUR 2.349k (GBP 1.440k) is to be paid.The goodwill resulting from the investment including acquisition charges of EUR 6.179k is being amortized over the expected useful life of 10 years.
As a result of the acquisition of 60% of the limited shares in Steuer-Fachschule Dr. H.W. Endriss GmbH & Co. KG effective as of January 1, 2001, a further purchase price of EUR 31k was paid on June 12, 2001.

Cash and cash equivalents solely comprise cash on hand and cash in banks as well as short-term time deposits due within one month.
Accounts receivable are stated at the fair value of the consideration given and are carried at amortized cost after provision for impairment (IAS 39.73).
The Company adopted IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement for the first time on April 1, 2001.
Correspondingly, financial assets are classified in one of the following categories and – if available – are accounted for accordingly:
Investments with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity that the company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity other than loans and receivables originated by the Company are classified as held-to-maturity investments. Investments acquired principally for the purpose of generating a profit from short-term fluctuations in price are classified as trading.All other investments, other than loans and receivables originated by the Company, are classified as available-for-sale.
Financial liabilities are classified in one of the following categories and, if available, are accounted for accordingly:
The financial assets and financial liabilities carried on the balance sheet simply comprise cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables and current liabilities.All financial assets and liabilities contained in the balance sheet are assets or liabilities originated by the Company and are therefore stated at amortized cost. If required, impairments were taken into consideration for financial assets.
In the financial statements presented, the Company had no derivatives.
Additional information regarding the accounting policies on recognition and measurement of these items are disclosed in the respective notes.
Group procedures are in force to ensure that services are only rendered to customers with a proven credit history and do not exceed an acceptable credit exposure limit.
Since the Group only has balances at banks and no loan liabilities or other non-current liabilities were entered into, no notable interest rate risk exists.
The Group has adequate cash and cash equivalents to cover its payment obligations. No liquidity risk exists for the Group.
Despite the fact that the Group operates abroad, the foreign exchange risk is to be classified as low.The Group mainly operates in Germany and in Europe via its independent subsidiaries (UK, Netherlands and Austria). Only one major liability in foreign currency is contained in the financial statements.We refer to note 31 for measures for hedging exchange rate risk.
Due to the short maturities, the book values of the financial assets and liabilities generally correspond to their respective fair values. Provisions are set up on financial assets whose book value is above the recoverable amount.
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. No impairment losses had to be recognized or reversed.
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over a useful life of three to five years.The useful lives and depreciation methods used are reviewed periodically to ensure that the method and period of depreciation are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from items of property, plant and equipment.
The lease agreements are operating leases and are thus not capitalized by the lessee.The lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Intangible assets are measured initially at cost. Intangible assets are recognized if it is probable that the future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the enterprise and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably.After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.
Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over a useful life of three to five years.
There are no internally generated intangible current or non-current assets.
The excess of the cost of an acquisition over the Company's interest in the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired at the date of the acquisition/exchange transaction is recorded as goodwill and recognized as an asset in the balance sheet.
Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses and is amortized over its useful life.The unamortized balances are reviewed at each balance sheet date to assess the probability of continuing future benefits. If necessary, impairment losses are recognized according to IAS 22.55.
Goodwill arising from the initial consolidation is amortized over the expected useful life of 10 to 15 years pursuant to IAS 22.44 et seq. Impairment losses to be recognized were not required so far.
Provisions are recognized when, and only when, the Company has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
The Company renders services in the fields of temporary employment, interim management, job placement, executive search and training mainly on the basis of service contracts. Revenue is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company, and the amount of the revenue can be measured reliably. Sales are recognized net of VAT and discounts when the service has been rendered and transfer of risks and rewards has been completed.
Personnel expenses and expenses for services purchased from external consultants as well as lecturer fees and for employees from the areas of executive search/permanent placement and IT consulting are recognized as cost of rendered services.
Selling expenses are comprised of the personnel expenses for sales employees, the premises and vehicle expenses attributable to such staff as well as the depreciation of fixed assets. In addition, expenses for communication as well as training costs for the sales department are included on a proportionate basis.
Administrative expenses include management expenses, personnel expenses for head office employees, proportionate premises and vehicle expenses as well as depreciation of fixed assets. Ongoing legal and consulting fees, accounting costs as well as costs of shareholders' meetings and the costs of financial statements are also recognized in administrative expenses.
The Company's measurement and reporting currency is the euro. Foreign currency transactions are recorded in the reporting currency by applying the exchange rate between the measurement currency and the foreign currency to the foreign currency amount at the date of the transaction. Exchange rate differences arising on the settlement of monetary items at rates different from those at which they were initially recorded during the periods are recognized in the income statement in the period in which they arise.
All foreign consolidated subsidiaries are regarded as foreign entities since they are financially, economically and organizationally autonomous.Their measurement currency is the respective local currency.The financial statements of foreign consolidated subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates with respect to the balance sheet (with the exception of equity), and at average exchange rates with respect to the income statement.All resulting translation differences are included in a translation reserve in equity.
The workforce and management were granted options on the acquisition of the Company's common stock.The stock option plan was not accounted for and thus has no effect on the income statement. Where the options are exercised, the amounts are recorded as an increase in capital.
Income taxes are based on the amount of profit.The deferred taxes recognized in prior periods for claims for income tax reimbursement were offset against retained earnings pursuant to the changes in IAS 12 (revised 2000) in conjunction with IAS 8.49.The comparable figures for the prior periods were adjusted. Pursuant to IAS 12.39, deferred taxes on start-up losses of the Austrian subsidiaries were not recognized, since it is not ensured that the loss carryforwards will be used in the next fiscal year.
In accordance with IAS 14, the Company's segment reporting is based on business segments, similar services being grouped into reportable segments. Pursuant to IAS 14.35 et seq., segment reporting for geographical segments is not required because the Company currently renders most of its services in Germany and thus is only substantially active in one geographical segment.
The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2001 were approved by the Supervisory Board on June 18, 2001 and published in the Federal Gazette on November 10, 2001.

The deferred taxes disclosed in prior periods for reimbursement claims from corporate income tax reduction amounts were offset against retained earnings pursuant to IAS 12 (revised 2000) and IAS 8.49.
In 1998/1999 the Company capitalized deferred tax assets from tax loss carryforwards of the Dutch subsidiary Amadeus Personeelsdiensten B.V. as result of start-up losses in the first fiscal year. By applying IAS 12.34 and IAS 12.39, losses from the prior years were not increased.
The increase results from the initial consolidation of Greenwell & Gleeson Limited as of April 4, 2002. In the individual financial statements of Greenwell & Gleeson Limited, deferred tax assets of EUR 83k were recognized on effects resulting from timing differences.
The capital stock corresponds to the parent company's capital stock of EUR 5.211.731 and is divided up into 5.211.731 no-par shares.There are no known shareholders who hold > 25% of shares.The capital stock has been fully paid in.
The capital reserve chiefly results from amounts generated above the nominal value (premium) from the issuance of shares.The increase in the capital reserve in the financial statements as of March 31, 2002 relates to the prorated repayment of a received dividend by a shareholder on the basis of an individual agreement.
As of March 31, 2002, EUR 4.435,41 had been transferred to the legal reserve pursuant to Sec. 300 No. 1 in conjunction with Sec. 150 (2) of the Stock Corporation Act (AktG).
As of the balance sheet date, the Company had approved capital of EUR 908k (prior year: EUR 908k).
At the shareholders' general meeting on August 8, 2001, the conditional capital agreed at the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of up to EUR 400k for the granting of subscription rights to the Company's common stock on January 16, 1999 based on the authorization of the shareholders' meeting on January 16, 1999 of EUR 69k, was revoked, to the extent that subscription rights were not issued. Conditional capital (Conditional Capital I) thus amounts to EUR 331k.
The authorization of the Management Board, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to grant subscription rights up to 400.000 bearer shares to employees and members of the management once or on several occasions up until March 31, 2004, was revoked, to the extent that authorization was not used by August 8, 2001.
Art. 4 (6) of the articles of incorporation were revised as follows:
"The capital stock has been conditionally increased by EUR 331.000 through the issuance of up to 331.000 bearer shares.The conditional capital will only be increased to the extent that the subscription rights are exercised, which are granted on the basis of the Management Board's authorization from January 16, 1999 to March 31, 2004.The new shares issued on the basis of the subscription rights are entitled to dividends for the entire fiscal year in which the exercising of the subscription right becomes effective (Conditional Capital I)".
In Art. 4 of the articles of incorporation (capital stock), a new paragraph 7 with the following wording was added and the following paragraph 7 became paragraph 8:
"The Company's capital stock has been conditionally increased by a further EUR 190.000 through the issuance of up to 190.000 bearer shares.The conditional capital will only be increased to the extent that the subscription rights are exercised, which are granted on the basis of the Management Board's authorization from August 8, 2001, which is an element of conditional capital, to August 1, 2006.The new shares issued on the basis of the subscription rights are entitled to dividends for the entire fiscal year in which the exercising of the subscription right becomes effective (Conditional Capital II)".
The Management Board was authorized, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to grant subscription rights up to a total of 190.000 bearer shares in the Company (Conditional Capital II) to employees and members of the management of the Company and to companies in which the Company directly or indirectly holds a majority once or on several occasions up to August 1, 2006. Should the Company's Management Board be the beneficiary, the Supervisory Board shall be authorized to grant subscription rights. Of the subscription rights, a total of up to 57.000 (30%), a total of up to 38.000 (20%), a total of up to 57.000 (30%) and a total of up to 38.000 (20%) may be granted to members of the Company's Management Board, members of management of affiliated enterprises, employees of the Company and to employees of affiliated enterprises, respectively.

As of the balance sheet date, taxes on income split up as follows:

The Company has tax loss carryforwards amounting to EUR 380k for which no deferred tax assets were capitalized pursuant to IAS 12.34.
The reconciliation of the theoretical amount that would have resulted, had the German tax rate been applied to the pre-tax result at the total tax expense actually disclosed, is as follows:

| Tax expense actually disclosed | 3.380 | 3.763 | 2.807 |
| Effective tax rate in % | 40,2 | 53,4 | 53,6 |
The effective tax rate in Germany fell during the fiscal year by approximately 13,4%.The reduction in the effective tax rate can be attributed to the fall in the corporate income tax rate from 40% (on retained profits) or 30% (on distributed profits) to 25% (standard tax rate).
With regard to the deferred taxes recognized in prior periods for claims for tax reimbursement due to corporate income tax reductions for planned distributions of profits (March 31, 2001: EUR –318k; March 31, 2000: EUR –258k), the comparable figures for prior periods presented in the reconciliation were adjusted.The adjustment was performed pursuant to IAS 8.49 in conjunction with IAS 12 (revised 2000).
Pursuant to IAS 14 (Segment Reporting), the segment reporting is based on distinguishable business segments classified according to primary risks and opportunities and in accordance with the internal reporting structure.
The Group carries on its business activities in the following two segments:
Pursuant to IAS 14.35, segment reporting for geographical segments is not necessary, because the Company is only substantially active in one geographical segment.

Granting subscription rights to those entitled to subscribe is limited to two periods per year, each of which lasts two weeks. One third of the subscription rights may be exercised for the first time after a waiting period of two years after the date on which they were granted; another third may be exercised in each of the subsequent years.
The options may only be exercised following expiry of the respective waiting period, if, in the period between the options being granted and the start of the next exercising period following expiry of the waiting period for the respective tranche, the Amadeus share price has outperformed the SDAX of Deutsche Börse AG or another index for small and mid caps ("reference index") in the same period by at least 10% ("performance target").To calculate attainment of the performance target, the average closing price (XETRA) of the Company's common stock in the last five trading days prior to the end of the respective subscription period in which the subscription rights are granted, and in the final five trading days prior to the start of the subscription period in which the subscription rights are to be granted are to be compared with the reference index trend calculated in the same way. Should the performance target not be fulfilled on the day prior to the start of this exercising period, the waiting period for the respective tranche shall be lengthened until the performance target is fulfilled on the day prior to the start of the subsequent exercising period. If, following expiry of the respective waiting period, the performance target is fulfilled at the start of the exercising period and the subscription rights are not exercised in this period, these may be exercised in a later period, even if the performance target is no longer fulfilled at the start of this subsequent exercising period.
The subscription rights are not granted in return for a consideration.When exercising the subscription rights, an exercise price is to be paid for each exercised subscription right.This corresponds to the average closing price (XETRA) of the Company's share in the last five trading days prior to the end of the respective subscription period in which the respective subscription rights were granted ("strike price" minus the outperformance markdown). For each per cent by which the price of the Amadeus share outperforms the reference index in the period between the subscription rights being granted and the start of the respective exercising period, the strike price falls by three per cent ("exercise price").To calculate the outperformance of the Amadeus shares compared to the reference index, the average closing price (XETRA) of the Company's common stock from the last five trading days prior to the end of the respective subscription period in which the subscription rights were granted, and in the final five trading days prior to the start of the subscription period in which the subscription rights are granted are to be compared with the reference index trend calculated in the same way.The subscription right agreements run for a period of eight years.
The Company's stock option agreements are recognized according to IAS 19 (revised 2000) and solely refer to the required disclosures in the notes pursuant to IAS 19.147 et seq.
An average of 1.102 people were employed by the Company during fiscal year 2001/2002 (prior year: 795). In the fiscal year, personnel expenses amounted to EUR 42.133k (prior year: EUR 28.820k).

"We have audited the consolidated financial statements prepared by Amadeus AG Personal-Dienstleister und Solution Provider, Frankfurt am Main, as of March 31, 2002, consisting of the balance sheet, income statement, statement of changes in equity, cash flow statement and notes to the consolidated financial statements and the group management report, for the fiscal year from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002.The Company's Management Board is responsible for the preparation and the contents of the consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion whether the consolidated financial statements are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with German auditing principles and the German generally accepted auditing standards set down by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW).Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit such that it can be assessed with reasonable assurance that the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatements.The scope of the audit was planned taking into account our understanding of business operations, the Group's economic and legal environment, and any potential errors anticipated. In the course of the audit, the carrying amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements and management report have been verified, mainly on the basis of spot checks.The audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the legal representatives, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the net worth, financial position and results of operations of the Group and its cash flows for the fiscal year in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as published by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Our audit, which also covered the group management report prepared by the Management Board for the fiscal year from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002, did not give any cause for qualification. In our opinion, the group management report accurately presents the situation of the Group and the risks arising from future developments in all material respects.We also confirm that the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2002 and the group management report for the fiscal year from April 1, 2001 to March 31, 2002 fulfill the German law requirements for releasing the Company from preparing consolidated financial statements and a group management report".
