Baader Wertpapierhandelsbank AG:

preliminary consolidated net profit for 2007 in accordance with IFRSs

Unterschleissheim (Germany), 20 February 2008

Baader Wertpapierhandelsbank AG raised its profit from ordinary activities

in fiscal year 2007 by 38.0% to EUR 35.2 million (previous year: EUR 25.5

million).

Overall, Baader Wertpapierhandelsbank AG generated profit after taxes of

EUR 29.0 million (previous year: EUR 30.6 million). This corresponds to

profit per share of EUR 0.64 (previous year: EUR 0.67).

The lower post-tax profit in 2007 can be explained by the Gesetz über

steuerliche Begleitmaßnahmen zur Einführung der Europäischen Gesellschaft

und zur Änderung weiterer steuerlicher Vorschriften (SEStEG – German Act on

the Tax Features for the Introduction of the European Company and Amendment

of Other Tax Rules). This replaces the previous system of reducing

corporate income tax through payment of corporate income tax credit in

instalments. This led to recognition of the cash value of the corporate

income tax credit in the amount of EUR 11.6 million as an asset and thus

led to a positive tax result in 2006.

At the end of last year, equity amounted to EUR 165.4 million (previous

year: EUR 152,6 million). As of the reporting date, the Group had 298

employees (previous year: 266 employees) and the number of order books

managed climbed from 120,579 or 71% to 206,428.
