Preface – Key figures
Dear Shareholders,
The autumn report of Germany's IT industry federation, BITKOM, forecasts that the ITC hardware and systems segment in Germany will shrink slightly this year and in 2007.
At the same time, BITKOM predicts that the IT services segment will grow considerably this year and in 2007, by 4.5 percent and
4.6 percent respectively.
As you know, we decided at an early stage to take advantage of this trend, and have gradually consolidated our position in the IT services segment. Our current staff structure provides impressive evidence of this development. Of our approximately 1,400 employees, almost 900 are now highly qualified IT advisers and technicians.
The first signs of the success of our strategic realignment can be seen clearly in the figures for the third quarter of 2006 – for example, our operating profit is more than twice as high as that in the third quarter of 2005.
The outlook for the future of our business is also good, and not only for the IT services segment. Our trading business should also benefit in the next financial year from the introduction of two new operating systems – Apple's 'Leopard' and Microsoft's 'Vista' – and the follow-up business in hardware.
However, there is a lack of publicity regarding the new operating systems. In addition, there is insufficient awareness among the public of the considerable strengthening of our position in the IT services segment, which should really result in a revaluation of our share.
We will therefore make it a priority to create more publicity regarding our operating successes.
Kind regards
Klaus Weinmann, CEO

Business development
1. Business development since the start of the year
The CANCOM Group has continued its profitable growth in the first nine months of the financial year 2006. We are particularly pleased with the development of the IT services business, which has been successfully expanded both in 2005 and in the current year.
Below is a summary of the figures for the first nine months of the financial year 2006:
Both sales revenues and operating profit increased further in the first nine months of the year as compared with the same period of 2005.
Consolidated sales revenues in the first nine months were 13 percent higher than in the first nine months of 2005, at € 178.7 million compared with € 158.2 million.
In Germany, sales revenues for the first nine months were 15.4 percent higher, at € 156.9 million, while in the rest of Europe sales revenues were slightly lower than in the same period of 2005, falling 1.8 percent to € 21.8 million.
Of the total consolidated sales revenues, € 69.2 million is attributable to the third quarter, in comparison with € 52.5 million in the third quarter of 2005. This represents an increase of 31.7 percent.
Consolidated gross profits for the first nine months of 2006 are 40.9 percent higher than in the same period of 2005, at € 41.5 million. Gross profits doubled in the third quarter of 2006 to € 19.9 million as the result of an acquisition.
Consolidated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) were 28.1 percent higher in the first nine months than in the same period of 2005, at € 3.3 million.
The EBITDA results for the quarter were significantly higher than those of the third quarter of 2005, rising by 58.5 percent to € 1.5 million.
The consolidated operating profit was 77.7 percent higher in the first nine months of 2006 than in the same period of 2005, at € 2.3 million compared with € 1.3 million. For the third quarter of 2006, the consolidated operating profit was more than double that in the same period of 2005, rising from € 0.4 million to € 1.1 million (an increase of 142.6 percent). This gives CANCOM its best third-quarter operating results in the history of the Company.
At € 1.1 million, the consolidated net income for the first nine months of 2006 was up 76.9 percent on the same period of 2005. Of this amount, € 0.5 million was attributable to the third quarter – an increase of 471.3 percent on the same period of 2005. The consolidated balance sheet total as at 30 September 2006 has increased 13.5 percent as compared with 31 December 2005, from € 71.9 million to € 81.6 million, as a result of NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH's being consolidated for the first time. Despite the increase in the balance sheet total, the equity ratio of the CANCOM Group has improved from 37.6 percent as at 31 December 2005 to 39.4 percent as at 30 September 2006.
There was a negative operating cash flow of € 3.2 million for the first nine months of 2006, caused partly by the strong growth. In the same period of 2005 there was also a negative operating cash flow of € 5.1 million.
In the fourth quarter we expect an improvement in the figure as a result of the traditionally strong year-end business.
Because of the consolidation of NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH and the anticipated introduction of new operating systems by Apple and Microsoft at the start of next year, we expect a further improvement in sales revenues and profits over the next three to nine months.
Below is an overview of the most significant developments within the CANCOM Group during the third quarter of 2006:
Claims for damages against CANCOM IT Systeme AG withdrawn
In August, CANCOM IT Systeme AG reached an out-of-court agreement with Francois Prudent, President and Director-General as well as minority shareholder of eBizcuss.com S.A., a former affiliated company of CANCOM. Following this agreement, Mr Prudent received a one-off payment of € 200,000, for which a provision was made in the financial statements for the half-year ended 30 June 2006, so that it does not affect the results for the third quarter.
The terms of the settlement required the withdrawal of all claims and counterclaims for damages in connection with the dismissal of Mr Prudent as President and Director-General of eBizcuss.com S.A. and the sale of the company in 2003.
Mr Prudent had sued CANCOM IT Systeme AG for € 1.9 million for breach of his pre-emptive rights and for € 0.15 million for his dismissal as President and Director-General.
Announcements by CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft, Jettingen-Scheppach, Germany, in compliance with Section 25 (1) of the German Securities Act (Wertpapierhandelsgesetz, WpHG)
On 7 August 2006 we received notice in writing from Stefan Kober, 89343 Jettingen-Scheppach, Germany that his voting interest of 511,099 shares in CANCOM IT


Business development
Systeme AG had on 1 August 2006 fallen below the 5 percent threshold referred to in Section 25 (1) of the German Securities Trading Act. This followed the entry in the Commercial Register of a capital increase in exchange for cash, and the resulting dilution of his shareholding. His voting interest now represents 4.919 percent of the voting capital.
On 13 September we received correspondence from lawyers Dr. Robert Briem Rechtsanwalt-GmbH, 1016 Wien, Austria, for and on behalf of the following persons / legal entities:
-
- AvW Invest Aktiengesellschaft, Krumpendorf, Austria
-
- AvW Management-Beteiligungs AG, Krumpendorf, Austria
-
- AvW Beteiligungsverwaltung GmbH, Vienna, Austria
-
- Auer von Welsbach Privatstiftung, Vienna, Austria
-
- Dr. Wolfgang Auer von Welsbach, Krumpendorf, Austria
The correspondence informed us that, since 11 September 2006, AvW Invest Aktiengesellschaft has held 1,049,980 shares in CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft, or 10.104 percent of the Company's voting capital. The 10 percent shareholding threshold has thus been exceeded.
It also informed us that the indirect shareholdings via AvW Invest AG of the persons/ legal entities listed above under numbers 2 to 5 have since 11 September 2006 also exceeded the threshold of 10 percent of the voting capital of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft for the purposes of Section 21 of the German Securities Trading Act. The persons or legal entities listed above under numbers 2 to 5 are each indirectly entitled to 10.104 percent of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft's voting capital via AvW Invest AG. These voting rights must be attributed in full to each of the persons or legal entities listed under numbers 2 to 5 in accordance with Section 22 paragraph 1 sentence 1 no. 1 of the German Securities Act, even though they have no direct stake in CANCOM IT Systeme AG themselves.
2. Order position
In our merchandise business, the majority of incoming orders are converted to sales within two weeks because of our large delivery capacity. For this reason, the reporting date figures on their own do not give a true picture of the current order position in this area of our business, which is why we do not publish them.
In the IT services business, orders are often given over long periods. At present the volume of orders in this segment is stable or slightly rising.
3. Strong cash position
The CANCOM Group's cash position continues strong.
Our business makes it necessary to maintain our inventory at an appropriate level, but this also ensures that we are able to make deliveries at short notice, which often gives us a decisive competitive advantage over our rivals. Our accounts receivable represent a valuable asset which can be used as security, and the credit facilities at our disposal enable us to raise large sums of cash at short notice if necessary. At the same time they serve as a method of financing CANCOM's future growth.
4. Significant changes in the risks of future development (since the start of the financial year)
Apart from the one exception outlined below, there have been no significant changes in the risks of future development at CANCOM since the start of the financial year. CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH (previously NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH) makes most of its sales revenues with Siemens Group companies. The majority takeover of CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH by CANCOM IT Systeme AG makes the Siemens Group the largest customer of the CANCOM Group. In order to minimise the risk of becoming too dependent on this customer, we place great importance on

Business development
maintaining a close and open partnership with the Siemens Group. We also plan gradually to reduce the dependence on Siemens by expanding the sales activities of NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH and by diversifying the customer base.
CANCOM's strong growth is also leading to a reduction in the Group's dependence on individual manufacturers. Dependence on manufacturers is thus no longer regarded as a significant risk.
Details of other risks can be found in our annual report for 2005, starting on page 28.
5. Continual development and improvement of our products
No significant research and development costs have been incurred.
6. Investments
The CANCOM Group's investments are mainly concentrated on acquisitions, and on the continual improvement of the internal infrastructure and office and business equipment.
For details of the CANCOM Group's investments, please refer to the Notes.

7. Our employees
At 30 September 2006, the CANCOM Group had a total of 1,287 employees, according to the method of counting specified by the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch, HGB). A year ago the Group had 528 employees, and at 31 December 2005 it had a staff of 567. The sharp rise in the number of employees is due primarily to CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH's having been consolidated for the first time.
8. Outlook for the current financial year
According to the latest forecast by Deutsche Bank, a slight recovery in the economies of Germany and the United Kingdom is starting to be felt this year. Gross domestic product in 2006* (real change compared with 2005, as a percentage)
| Euroland: | 2.6 |
|---|---|
| Germany: | 2.0 |
| United Kingdom: | 2.7 |
| USA: | 3.3 |
| Japan: | 2.6 |
| Asia (excl. Japan): | 8.5 |
| Latin America: | 4.8 |
| World: | 5.0 |
* Forecast: Deutsche Bank, Research Office, Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 27 October 2006
According to the German Federal Association of the Information Economy, Telecommunications and the New Media (Bitkom), the rising demand for hardware in Germany in 2006 will probably be more than offset by a fall in prices, and it therefore expects slight negative growth of 1.6 percent. However, sector experts expect that, if prices remain stable, the demand for software, and especially IT services, will grow steadily by 5.5 percent and 4.5 percent respectively.
In addition, we feel that the trend towards integrated, complete solutions will continue.
Development of German IT sector in 2006* (real change compared with 2005, as a percentage)
| IT market as a whole: 2.5 | |
|---|---|
| Hardware: | -1.6 |
| Software: | 5.5 |
| IT services: | 4.5 |
* Forecast: Bitkom, September 2006

Business development
CANCOM adapted its business policy to these trends early on and, because of the promising prospects, it intends to pursue the same policy in future.
Our plan therefore provides for organic growth, among other things by appointing new IT consultants and technicians, so as to strengthen as a matter of priority the IT services provided by the existing locations.
We also plan to consolidate our market position by making targeted acquisitions. The present market environment offers favourable conditions for this, since several small systems houses and IT service providers are looking for prospective buyers.
Experience has shown that the consolidation of service activities by recruiting new employees involves initial costs, so the recruitment drive planned for the current financial year is expected to lead to a slightly negative or at best neutral effect on the Company's profits. No positive contribution to profits is expected until 2007 at the earliest.
11. Events of particular significance after the end of the third quarter.
There were no events of particular significance after the end of the third quarter of 2006.

NOTES
to the consolidated accounts for the quarter ended 30 September 2006
A. The principles adopted for the consolidated financial statements
1. General information
The consolidated financial statements of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft and its subsidiaries ("the CANCOM Group" or "the Group") were drawn up according to the US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (US GAAP) until 31 December 2004. In 2005 this was changed over retroactively with effect from 1 January 2004 to the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) or International Accounting Standards (IAS). All compulsory IFRS and IAS as well as Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretation Committee (IFRIC) or Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC) were taken into account. The previous year's figures were calculated according to the same principles. The consolidated income statement was prepared on the basis of the total cost method.
The consolidated financial statements were drawn up in euro. Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are shown in thousand euro (€ '000 or € k).
The financial year covers the period from 1 January to 31 December 2006. The address of the Company's registered office is Messerschmittstrasse 20, 89343 Jettingen-Scheppach, Germany.
The shares are traded on the Regulated Market of the FWB Frankfurt Stock Exchange under ISIN DE0005419105 and are admitted to the Prime Standard of Deutsche Börse AG.
The main object of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft and its consolidated subsidiaries is the sale and distribution of integrated IT system solutions (hardware, software and network products) in both the PC and Apple environments. It also offers a comprehensive range of IT services (e.g. IT advice, system integration, service and support, and training).
2. Scope of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft and all subsidiaries in which CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft has either a direct or an indirect majority shareholding, or in which it holds the majority of the voting rights. These subsidiaries are fully consolidated.

In January 2006, CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft and TRS Technology Refresh GmbH, Aschheim, Germany, founded CANCOM Financial Services GmbH, headquartered in Jettingen-Scheppach, Germany, in the form of a joint venture under equal ownership.
The object of the company is the acquisition and negotiation of lease contracts, the leasing of information and communications technology, and advice in such business transactions and in all transactions directly connected with these areas. CANCOM Financial Services GmbH was consolidated using the "at equity" method, in accordance with IAS 31.38.
In December 2005, CANCOM IT Systeme AG acquired part of the assets of Holme & Co. Computersysteme + Lösungen OHG with effect from 1 January 2006. The absorbing company was CANCOM Deutschland GmbH, a subsidiary of CANCOM IT Systeme AG.
CANCOM has purchased from Georg Feiertag for cash one share in NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH (renamed CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH since 1 September 2006) at the nominal price of € 300. The transaction was agreed in a contract of sale dated 22 May 2006, document register no. 1183/2006 II, notarised by Prof Dr Hans-Ulrich Jerschke.
Siemens Business Services GmbH & Co. OHG has sold its shares in NSG Netzwerk-Service GmbH (renamed CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH since 1 September 2006) to CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft at the nominal price of € 301,700 and € 659,300 with economic effect from midnight on 30 June 2006. The transaction was agreed in a contract of sale and option dated 23/24 May 2006, document register no. 1198/2006 II, notarised by Prof Dr Hans-Ulrich Jerschke. The purchase price of € 6 million was paid on 25 July 2006.
CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH's share capital amounts to € 1,280,000. This means that CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft holds 71.5 percent of the shares in CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH with effect from July 2006.
In connection with this acquisition, a € 800,000 capital increase for cash was resolved in the second quarter of 2006, and 800,000 new no-par-value bearer shares were issued. The capital increase was entered in the Commercial Register on 1 August 2006.
Change in the scope of consolidation:
| Name and registered office of company | Date of | Share of | Share of |
|---|---|---|---|
| acquisition | capital voting rights | ||
| CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH, Munich, | |||
| Germany | '1 July 2006 | 75.1% | 75.1% |
At the date on which CANCOM Netzwerk-Service GmbH was first consolidated – 1 July 2006 – the impact on the consolidated financial statements of the change in the scope of the consolidation was as follows:
| € '000 | |
|---|---|
| Current assets | 13,605 |
| Long-term assets | 2,356 |
| Total assets | 15,961 |
| Current liabilities | 9,777 |
| Long-term liabilities | 417 |
| Equity | 5,767 |
| Total equity and liabilities | 15,961 |

The acquisition of the company resulted in goodwill amounting to € 2,063k and intangible assets amounting to € 1,009k.
Novodrom GmbH has established a company called Novodrom People Value Service GmbH. This is documented by a notarial deed (document register no. B1580/2006) dated 2 October 2006 drawn up by Dr Braun, notary. The company's share capital is € 25,000 and was taken over in full by Novodrom GmbH. The new company has not yet been entered in the Commercial Register.
In the context of the CANCOM Group's strategic orientation as a leading supplier of IT infrastructure and services, the Executive Board and Supervisory Board plan to sell the majority stake of SoftMail IT AG, which does not form part of the Group's core business. It is planned to carry out the sale in the fourth quarter of 2006, if possible. Since the second quarter of 2006, the subsidiary has been classified in the accounts as being held for resale, in accordance with IFRS 5.
3. Accounting and valuation methods
The basic accounting and valuation methods which were used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. The methods described were used consistently for the reporting periods shown, unless declared otherwise.
Standards which came into effect after the accounting date are not applied in advance. There are therefore no effects from the prior application of standards on the assets, financial position and earnings of the Group.
Preparation of the individual financial statements included in the consolidated statements
The financial statements of German and international companies included in the consolidated financial statements were prepared as at the balance sheet date for the annual financial statements of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft. The annual financial statements of the subsidiary CANCOM ComputerPartner GmbH were drawn up as at 31 March 2006 in accordance with the differing financial year. The income statement includes the period from 1 January to 30 September 2006.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are based on the individual financial statements of the companies consolidated in CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft.
IFRS 3 is used from 31 March 2004, which means that a retrospective application does not take place. In accordance with IFRS 3.79 the amortisation of previously recognised goodwill is discontinued. The carrying amount of the amortisation thus accumulated is charged against a corresponding reduction of the goodwill. The goodwill is analysed annually for impairment of assets in accordance with IAS 36.
The financial statements of the individual subsidiaries were included in the consolidated statements according to the acquisition method. This means the purchase costs of an equity investment are set off against the relevant equity capital of the subsidiary in question at the time of acquisition. Any differences are allocated to the assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries, if they have undisclosed reserves. Any remaining difference on the asset side is capitalised as goodwill under intangible assets. In line with IFRS 3 "Business Combinations", IAS 36 "Impairment of Assets" and IAS 38 "Intangible Assets", goodwill is no longer subject to scheduled amortisation. Instead, an impairment test must be carried out at least once a year to establish whether extraordinary impairment is necessary. The reviews of goodwill based on market values are to be carried out at business unit (cash generating unit) level. For the purposes of this rule, a business unit is an operating segment or one level below.
Profits, losses, revenues, expenses and income within the Group, and existing accounts payable and receivable between the Group companies are eliminated. Interests held by other shareholders are shown as a separate adjusting item under the equity capital.
Calculations and assumptions
In drawing up the consolidated financial statements we have to make estimates and assumptions. These have an impact on the amounts shown for assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities, as well as the reporting of expenditure and income. The actual amounts may deviate from these assumptions and estimates.
Currency conversion principles
Conversion of the financial statements of international subsidiaries is carried out according to the concept of functional currency. In the CANCOM Group, all international subsidiaries are financially independent ("foreign entities"). The assets and liabilities are accordingly converted at the rate of exchange applicable on the reporting date, while income and expenditure are converted at the average rate for the year. Differences from the conversion rate on the reporting date in the previous year and between the net income for the year shown in the balance sheet and in the income statement are charged against the equity capital, without affecting the net profit, and are separately indicated under equity capital. Conversion differences in monetary entries are recorded with an effect on the net income according to IAS 21.28.

| • Average rate | 1€=0.685 GBP | 1€=0.685 GBP | 1€=0.673 GBP |
Realisation of revenues
Revenues for sales of hardware and software are realised when ownership and risk passes to the customer, if payment is pre-arranged or determinable by contract and it is probable that the accounts receivable relating to the sale will be met. Sales relating to system integration are realised only after acceptance by the customer, or installation, if this is an essential condition for the commissioning of the product. The revenues figures constitute the amounts after deduction of cash discounts, price reductions, customer bonuses and rebates.
Interest income is accrued under the relevant period, taking into account the outstanding loan amount and the interest rate to be applied. The applicable interest rate is the interest rate which discounts the anticipated future cash inflows over the life of the financial asset with regard to the carrying amount of the asset. Dividend income from financial investments is recorded at the time when the shareholder acquires the right to receive the dividend payment.
Earnings per share
Earnings per share are determined in accordance with IAS 33 "Earnings per share". The basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the consolidated net income by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding in the financial year.
The diluted earnings per share are calculated on the basis that all potentially diluted stock options will be exercised. It can be assumed, economically speaking, that the

options are exercised when the strike price per option is favourable with regard to the traded share price.
Short-term assets
Inventories are valued at the lower of acquisition or manufacturing cost and market value (lower of cost or market) in accordance with IAS 2.9. Acquisition or manufacturing costs include direct materials costs and, where applicable, direct production costs as well as any overheads that have occurred in connection with the transfer of inventories to their current location and in order to bring inventories to their current condition. Acquisition and manufacturing costs are calculated according to the weighted average method. The net realisable value is the estimated sales price less all estimated costs up to completion, and the costs for marketing, sales and distribution. Items with reduced marketability are valued at the lower net realisable value. No extraordinary write-downs were necessary during the year under review.
No interest on loans was capitalised under the manufacturing costs. Interest on loans was immediately recorded as expenditure.
Accounts receivable are shown at their net sales proceeds value, allowing for a write-down for doubtful debts. Where the agreed interest rate for long-term accounts receivable is less than the market rate, the nominal amount of the account receivable is discounted. Trade accounts receivable are not discounted. If it is unlikely that an account receivable can be collected, the amount is written down.
Other assets are shown at their nominal values.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and cash in hand, and cash deposits which are not subject to any considerable value fluctuation and can be turned into cash within a period of three months at most.
Prepaid expenses are accrued to charge expenses to their relevant accounting period, and are valued at their nominal value.
Intangible assets
In line with IAS 38 "Intangible assets", goodwill and other intangible assets purchased are recognised at acquisition cost and the estimated residual carrying amount is written down by the straight-line method over the expected useful life of the assets. Assets are written down uniformly throughout the Group by the straight-line method (generally over a period of three to five years) over the period during which the relevant company can expect to use the asset. Goodwill from acquisitions is not subject to scheduled amortisation. Instead of scheduled amortisation, goodwill is subject to an impairment test at least once a year (in line with IFRS 3 and IAS 36). IAS 38 distinguishes between intangible assets with limited useful lives and those with indeterminable useful lives. Only intangible assets with limited useful lives are subject to scheduled amortisation, unlike intangible assets with indeterminable useful lives, which are instead reviewed at least once a year to check if a write-down is necessary in accordance with IAS 36. With the exception of goodwill, all intangible assets have a limited useful life.
Once a year, goodwill is checked for impairment losses – as well as for signs of a possible impairment loss. The impairment value of goodwill is reviewed at reporting unit (cash generating unit) level based on the geographical segment reporting in accordance with IAS 36. In this process the carrying amounts of cash generating units are compared with the realisable amount.
The realisable amount is the higher of the realisable value less realisation costs and the value in use. CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft calculates the value in use as the present value of the future cash flows of the reporting unit over a period of five years, discounted by the prevailing market rate. Cash flows beyond the fiveyear period are projected with a constant rate of growth and discounted.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are valued at acquisition or manufacturing cost less depreciation, in accordance with IAS 16. They are subject to scheduled straight-line depreciation over their useful lives. Their recognition is based on the following useful lives:
| Administrative and warehouse buildings | 33 1/3 years |
|---|---|
| Fixtures, fittings and equipment | 4-10 years |
Acquisition/manufacturing costs include expenditure directly attributable to the purchase of assets. Subsequent acquisition/manufacturing costs are only recorded as a part of the acquisition/manufacturing costs of an asset or – where relevant – as separate assets if it is probable that economic use will in future accrue to the company out of them and the costs of the assets can be reliably determined. All other repair and maintenance costs are recorded as expense in the financial year in which they occur. The carrying amounts and useful lives are checked as at every balance sheet date and adjusted where necessary. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated realisable amount, the value is immediately written down to this amount. Gains and losses from disposals of assets are recorded as the difference between the realised proceeds and the carrying amount, affecting the net income or loss. Low-value assets are written off in full in the year of acquisition and shown in the statement of fixed assets as additions or disposals, and as depreciation for the relevant financial year.
Property, plant and equipment are subject to land charges of € 6.0 million, which are valued at € 4.1 million as at 30 September 2006.
Extraordinary depreciation of long-term assets
If there are indications that the carrying amount of a long-term asset cannot be recovered, the requirement for an extraordinary write-down is reviewed on the basis of IAS 36.9 "Impairment of Assets". In this case CANCOM would carry out extraordinary depreciation. Long-term assets that will continue to be used in the future are subjected to an impairment test by comparing the carrying amount and the discounted future inflow and outflow of funds. If this value (current value of the reporting date) is less than the costs of acquisition carried over, a reduction in value of the asset takes place in accordance with IAS 36 and IAS 38.108.
Financial investments
Other notes receivable/loans are valued at acquisition cost. Non-interest-bearing and low-interest-bearing notes receivable and loans are valued at their present value. The financial investments do not include any securities traded on organised markets.
Deferred taxes
Deferred taxes are accrued according to the balance sheet liability method. This involves the accrual of deferred taxes for temporary differences between the basis of calculation for the purposes of tax law and for commercial law, which will most probably be cancelled out in the future, and for temporary result differences from consolidation measures affecting the net income or net loss. Deferred taxes are assessed using the tax rates applying in the year the differences are reversed, if these are already approved on the balance sheet date. In accordance with IAS 12 and SIC-21, the deferred tax assets and liabilities are shown separately in the Group figures. For loss carryovers that reduce future tax burdens, deferred tax assets have been accrued if it is probable that they will be realised. The value of the deferred taxes is reviewed and adjusted if necessary. Deferred taxes are shown in the balance sheet at their nominal value; no discounting is carried out.
Provisions and liabilities
Provisions for employee benefits mainly include performance-based pension obligations, which are determined on the basis of actuarial reports using the projected unit credit method and taking into account future increases in salary and pensions. For contribution-based pension schemes, provisions are made only to the amount


of the contributions still due at the balance sheet date. In the event of unforeseeable changes in pension obligations or plan assets, actuarial gains and losses can occur which are not reported in the statement of income. These gains and losses which have been incurred but not yet entered in the accounts with effect on profit or loss are realised to the extent that they exceed, at the beginning of a financial year, the value of pension obligations and plan assets by a range that is greater than 10 percent.
Other provisions are made where there is an uncertain external obligation with a financial or legal cause, which is expected to be claimed and which can be reliably quantified. The obligation is valued on the basis of best estimate, taking into account unit costs and overheads. General administrative, distribution and development costs are not taken into account.
Liabilities are valued at their repayment value, which is equivalent to the current market value.
Stock options
IFRS 2 "Share-based Payment" provides rules for reporting and explaining stockbased payment transactions. CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft only granted stock options to employees before 1 October 2003. The accounting and valuation rules laid down in IFRS 2 are applied for these stock options. The valuation of stock-based employee compensation agreements is based on the total fair value of the option, which is recorded according to the Black Scholes option price model at the time the stock options are granted. Share-based payment programmes are recorded in accordance with IFRS 2.7ff.
Consolidated cash flow statement
The cash flow statement is drawn up according to IAS 7 and shows the inflow and outflow of cash in the Group during the year under review. It distinguishes between cash flows from current operating activities and cash flows from investing and financing activities.
Leasing
Payments on an operating lease are recorded as expenses in the income statement using the straight-line method over the term of the leasing contract, unless another systematic fundamental corresponds more closely to the development of usefulness to the Company over the term. An operating lease is one in which not all major risks and opportunities are assigned to the lessee. The Company reviews all leasing contracts at regular intervals to establish whether operating or finance lease terms apply.

Where the losses carried forward were taken on as a result of company acquisitions, deferred tax assets were accrued with no effect on the profit and loss, by netting against the relevant goodwill.

15. Capital from profit-participation rights and subordinated loans
Capital from profit-participation rights and subordinated loans includes only profit-participation rights, which amount to € 6,000,000 (PREPS 2005-1 and PREPS 2005-2). The profit-participation rights designated as PREPS 2005-2, a portion which amounts to € 3,000,000, were granted by a contract dated 1 November 2005. The capital was paid in on 8 December 2005. The profit-participation rights expire on 8 December 2012. There is no participation in the Company's losses. Claims arising from the profit-participation rights are ranked inferior to the claims of all current and future creditors of the Company. This means that, in the event of the liquidation or insolvency of the Company, they are subordinate to the claims defined by Section 39 paragraph 1 no. 4 of the German Insolvency Statute (Insolvenzordnung, InsO), and are therefore only to be met after these and any claims senior to them have been fully met, but before the claims defined by Section 39 paragraph 1 no. 5 of the above Statute.
In line with the resolution of the Annual General Meeting of 2005 giving the Executive Board authority to grant profit-participation rights, the portion shown in the balance sheet as at 31 December 2005 as a subordinated loan (PREPS 2005-1), amounting to € 3,000,000, has been converted into profit-participation rights. The conversion became effective from the interest period started on 4 May 2006. The profit-participation rights expire on 4 August 2012. There is no participation in the Company's losses. With regard to the ranking of any claims arising from these profit-participation rights, the same applies as to the profit-participation rights designated as PREPS 2005-2 above.
16. Pension provisions
Individual performance-related commitments exist with regard to some Executive Board members. Two members of the Executive Board resigned with effect from 31 December 2005, and the pension provision for one of them was released with effect from that date. The pension provision for the other resigning member of the Executive Board was non-forfeitable, and was only released in 2006, when it was transferred to his new employer.
The size of the pension commitments for pension schemes in Germany is calculated mainly by the years of service and the remuneration of the employees in question.
17. Deferred tax liabilities
The deferred tax liabilities relate to deviations from the tax balance sheet. They are valued at a tax rate of 38.4 percent.

C. Notes to the consolidated income statement
1. Segment reporting
The CANCOM Group discloses segmental information according to the rules of IAS 14.
The primary segment reporting format of the CANCOM Group is based on geographical segments, since the risks, the return on equity and the earnings potential of the Group are influenced mainly by whether the business is operational in Germany or in the rest of Europe.
Since the CANCOM Group's business model is the integrated provision of IT infrastructure and services to professional end-users, there are no distinguishable sub-activities in terms of products or services, or groups of products or services, which would be identified by differing risks or income. In this respect there is no further segmentation by business segments.
The accounting methods used for internal segment reporting are in line with the accounting and valuation methods described in Section A. 3 (see page 14). The only differences arise from currency conversion and these result in slight deviations between the data for internal reporting and the relevant disclosures for external accounting.
Internal sales are recorded on the basis of either their cost of their current market prices, depending on the type of service or product sold.
The CANCOM Group's segmental reporting for the period 1 January to 30 September 2006 includes the following companies in Germany: CANCOM Deutschland GmbH, CANCOM ComputerPartner GmbH, Novodrom GmbH, Maily Distribution GmbH, CAN-COM Netzwerk-Service GmbH and CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft.
The Europe segment includes CANCOM Ltd., CANCOM (Switzerland) AG, CANCOM Computersysteme GmbH and SoftMail IT AG.
The table on page 22 divides up different data from the consolidated financial statements by regions. All the figures shown were calculated in the same way as the relevant consolidated data, which is why the totals of the segmental data correspond to the consolidated values.
Information on dominant customers:
The CANCOM Group has no customers that individually account for 3 percent or more of its total sales revenues.

7. Income tax
A profit transfer agreement was concluded between CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft and CANCOM Deutschland GmbH in the first quarter of 2006. This means that, from 2006, the two companies have an interlocking relationship for the purposes of corporate tax and trade tax. Since the actual trade tax rate within the scope of the interlocking relationship is higher than that of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft during 2005, the utilisation of the tax loss carryovers of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft from 2006 is assessed at a higher tax rate than in 2005, resulting in a fall in the income tax rate.
The rate of income tax for German companies is 38.0 percent (2005: 38.4 percent) and relates to corporation tax, trade tax and solidarity surcharge. The divergences between the tax expenses reported and those at the tax rate of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft arise as follows:
| € '000 | 1 Jan. to 30 Sept. 2006 1 Jan. to 30 Sept. 2005 | |
|---|---|---|
| Result before tax | 923 | 848 |

The actual tax rate is calculated as follows:
Income tax comprises the income tax paid or due, and the deferred taxes, in the individual countries:
| Group tax expense | 103 | 192 |
|---|---|---|
| 55 | 179 | |
| Tax liabilities | 0 | -3 |
| Tax assets | 55 | 182 |
| Deferred taxes: | ||
| Current taxes | 48 | 13 |
| € '000 | 1 Jan. to 30 Sept. 2006 1 Jan. to 30 Sept. 2005 |
The computation of income tax in accordance with IAS 12 includes tax deferrals resulting from differing valuations in the commercial balance sheet and the tax balance sheet, from realisable loss carryovers, from differences in results between the tax valuations in the individual financial statements of the consolidated subsidiaries and the standard CANCOM valuation, or from the consolidation processes, if these balance out over the course of time. Deferred tax claims relating to the carrying forward of unused tax losses are partially capitalised in view of the expected future positive results. The deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of the taxation rates expected to apply to the period in which an asset is realised or a debt satisfied. The taxation rates used are those that apply or will apply on the balance sheet date.
6. Discontinued operations
Discontinued operations had a negative impact of € 555k on the income statement in the period 1 January to 30 September 2006 (first nine months of 2005: € 207k). Of the negative figure shown, € 350k relates to the after-tax result of SoftMail IT AG. This can be broken down as follows:
| Result after tax | -350 | 207 |

| Foreign currency exchange gains / losses | 5 | 9 |
| Interest income / expenses | 23 | 22 |
