Aurubis achieves operating earnings before taxes of EUR 86 million in first
quarter of current fiscal year

Hamburg, 10 February 2012 - Aurubis achieved earnings before taxes (EBT) of
EUR 190 million in the first quarter of the current fiscal year on the
basis of IFRS. Operating earnings before taxes according to Aurubis'
definition amounted to EUR 86 million. The good result was due to the

quarter overall, and a good production performance. The Company currently
does not expect the results to continue at this very high level.
