aap updates outlook in view of possible delays in product approvals, U.S.
market entry and project deals

aap Implantate AG announces that possible delays in product approvals and
registrations in Latin America, in gaining U.S. market entry for our
LOQTEQ(R) and trauma product portfolio, and in ongoing project deals may
negatively impact our sales and EBITDA forecast for 2014.
The Management assumes that sales losses directly attributable to the
disposal of equity in the dental joint venture aap BM productions GmbH in
the second quarter of 2014 totaling EUR 1.0 million cannot be compensated
by sales in other business areas. Based on the previous sales forecast for
the fiscal year 2014 of approx. EUR 35 million and taking into account the
aforementioned effect original sales goal amounts to EUR 34 million.
In view of these uncertainties we see for 2014 a target corridor between
EUR 30 million and EUR 34 million for full-year sales and between EUR 2.0
million and EUR 4.5 million for full-year EBITDA (previous forecast:
between EUR 5.0
million and EUR 6.0 million).
The strategic focus of transforming aap Implantate AG into a leading
European trauma enterprise remains our highest priority.
