*Revenue similar to last year
*19% increase in software revenue

*Significant improvement in net cash and cash equivalents and cash flow
Walldorf, July 21, 2011 According to provisional half-year figures for
2011, REALTECH recorded Group revenue of EUR 18.4 million, similar to last
year (1st half of 2010: EUR 18.5 million). At EUR 6.1 million (EUR 5.1
million) software solutions saw significant growth of 19%. Revenue in the
consulting business fell by 8% to EUR 12.3 million (EUR 13.4 million).
It must be noted here that REALTECH AG sold its Spanish subsidiary,
REALTECH system consulting S.L., Madrid, on June 28, 2011 as part of a
management buy-out. In line with IFRS regulations, the Spanish company is
being listed as 'Discontinued Operations' ('Aufgegebene
Geschäftsbereiche'). The figures for last year with regard to the Italian
subsidiary REALTECH Italia S. p. A., which was sold at the end of fiscal
year 2010, were treated in a similar way. Consequently, the figures for
2011 do not include REALTECH Spain and those for 2010 do not include
REALTECH Spain or REALTECH Italy.
Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA)
decreased to minus EUR 0.4 million (EUR 1.5 million), while EBIT decreased
to minus EUR 0.9 million (EUR 0.9 million). This was caused in particular
by a temporary weakness in the APAC region (Japan and New Zealand).
In contrast, if we take REALTECH Spain and REALTECH Italia into account
'pro forma' as part of the Group for the two years to be compared, EBITDA
for fiscal year 2011 is EUR 1.1 million (EUR 0.8 million) and EBIT is EUR
0.7 million (EUR 0.2 million).
Net income was greatly influenced by the disposal of the two companies and
rose to EUR 0.4 million (EUR 0.2 million). Similarly, earnings per share
increased to EUR 0.07 (EUR 0.05).
As a result of the previously mentioned disposal, net cash and cash
equivalents increased to EUR 11.6 million at the end of June 2011, compared
to EUR 6.4 million at the end of 2010 and EUR 6.2 million at the end of
last June. Cash flow increased from EUR 1,759,000 to EUR 5,962,000.
2nd quarter of 2011:
Group revenue was down 4% to EUR 9.1 million (2nd quarter of 2010: EUR 9.4
million). Software revenue climbed 11% to EUR 3.0 million (EUR 2.7
million). Revenue in the consulting business fell by 7% to EUR 6.1 million
(EUR 6.6 million).
EBITDA decreased to minus EUR 0.6 million (EUR 1.0 million), while EBIT
decreased to minus EUR 0.8 million (EUR 0.5 million). Net income improved
to EUR 0.6 million (EUR 0.3 million), corresponding to earnings per share
of EUR 0.11 (EUR 0.06).
REALTECH will be publishing its quarterly report for Q2/2011 on August 4,
2011.
