This document is a quarterly statement pursuant to section 51a of the rules and regulations for the Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse. Due to calculation processes, tables and references may produce rounding differences from the mathematically exact values (monetary units, percentage statements, etc.).
This report contains statements directed to the future that are based on assumptions and estimates made by the management of Elmos. Even though we assume the underlying expectations of our forward-looking statements to be realistic, we cannot guarantee these expectations will prove right. The assumptions may carry risks and uncertainties, and as a result actual events may differ materially from the current statements made with respect to the future. Among the factors that could cause material differences are changes in general economic and business conditions, changes in exchange and interest rates, the introduction of competing products, lack of acceptance of new products, and changes in business strategy. Elmos neither intends nor assumes any obligation to update its statements with respect to future events.
