Sehr geehrte Aktionärinnen und Aktionäre,
The first half of 2009 is now behind us, and CANCOM has continued to hold its own in the market despite the economic crisis.
Overall, the figures for the second quarter have suffered a negative impact from the difficult environment in the sector and the small number of working days, although the cost reduction measures we introduced early on have had a stabilising effect on the profit trend.
The services business, which now accounts for about two-thirds of the gross income, has also held up well. From an early stage CANCOM invested in the IT trends of the future, such as virtualisation, storage and security, and is now one of the leading suppliers of these sought-after solution technologies. Incidentally, our strong growth has recently earned us a place among "Bavaria's Best 50" – the 50 most dynamic companies in Bavaria, selected by the Bavarian Ministry of Economics.
As regards our performance in this financial year and in the current quarter, I assume that we have bottomed out. The third quarter of this year has seven more working days than the second, and the fourth quarter has always been the most profitable of the year.
Economic experts are also more optimistic about the further outlook for the German economy. According to Forrester Research, the market research company, there should be an upturn in corporate IT expenditure this year, and the investment bottleneck that has built up in the past few quarters should ease.
We are nevertheless continuing our policy of rigorous cost management. The full integra-
tion of CANCOM SYSDAT and Home of Hardware into the Group by 2010 will bring the expected synergy effects in the medium term, so that they will then start making a positive contribution to the CANCOM Group's performance. At CANCOM, we see the current crisis as an opportunity to take a role in the ongoing process of consolidation in the market, also through acquisitions. It offers us a chance to expand our customer base and strengthen our market position. The strength of our balance sheet and our financial clout give us the necessary room for manoeuvre.
Kind regards,
Klaus Weinmann, CEO

1. CANCOM's business and the general economic situation
Organisational and legal structure of the CANCOM Group
CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft, based in Jettingen-Scheppach, Germany, performs the central financing and management function for the equity investments held by the CANCOM Group.
Focus of activities and sales markets
One of the largest integrated systems providers in Germany, the CANCOM Group has been transformed over the last few years from a systems house focusing primarily on hardware and software, into an IT systems integrator. As an integrated service provider, its central focus is now on providing IT services and integrating IT systems into companies in addition to selling leading manufacturers' hardware and software. The IT services offering includes design and integration of IT systems as well as system operation.
The CANCOM Group's customer base therefore primarily includes commercial end-users, from independent professionals and medium and large-sized companies to public-sector institutions. Through the e-commerce platform of Home of Hardware GmbH & Co. KG, which the CANCOM Group acquired in 2008, it provides products and services to private consumers as well as B2B customers.
Explanation of the control system used within the Group
To control and monitor the performance of the individual subsidiaries, CANCOM analyses monthly key figures such as their sales revenues, gross profit, operating expenditure and operating profit, and compares these with the original plan as well as the quarterly forecast. Additionally, the Company regularly uses external indicators such as inflation rates, interest rates, the general economic trend and the performance of the IT sector – as well as forecasts for these – for the purpose of management control. The cash management procedures include a daily status assessment.
Research and development activities
The business activities of the CANCOM Group are focused on hardware and software distribution and the provision of services. Research and development expenses are incurred in the growth areas of virtualisation solutions, managed services, online technologies, system development and process optimisation.
Overview of the CANCOM Group's business performance
The CANCOM Group's path of growth continued in the first half of 2009. Consolidated sales revenues were significantly higher than in the first half of 2008.
The Group's consolidated sales revenues in the first half of 2009 were up 33.0 percent year on year, from € 148.5 million to € 197.5 million. Consolidated gross profit rose by 18.6 percent, from € 46.2 million to € 54.8 million. The gross profit margin fell from 31.1 percent to 27.7 percent, owing to the acquisition of the e-tailer Home of Hardware in 2008.
Consolidated EBITDA for the first half of 2009 amounted to € 2.8 million, and consolidated EBIT was € 1.6 million.
Significant events and investments
There were no significant events or investments in the period 1 January to 30 June 2009.

| Social security contributions | 6,340 | 4,962 |
| of which pension provisions | 72 | 45 |
| Total | 40,084 | 32,046 |
2. Earnings, financial and assets situation of the CANCOM Group
a) Earnings
The CANCOM Group's sales revenues rose significantly in the first half of 2009.
The consolidated sales revenues of the CANCOM Group in the first half of 2009 were up 33.0 percent year on year, at € 197.5 million compared with € 148.5 million.
The considerable growth is mainly attributable to the inclusion in the consolidated accounts of the full figures for the new subsidiaries, CANCOM SYSDAT GmbH and Home of Hardware GmbH & Co. KG.
The consolidated sales revenues of the operational business show a slight decline.
Note: Some adjustments to the previous year's figures were necessary in line with the provisions of IFRS 5 for areas that in 2008 were classified as discontinued operations.
Sales revenues of the CANCOM Group: year-on-year comparison of first half figures, 2008 and 2009 (in € million)
In Germany, sales revenues for the first half of 2009 were up 37.2 percent year on year, at € 187.4 million. This growth is mainly owing to the acquisition of CANCOM Sysdat GmbH and Home of Hardware GmbH & Co. KG.
In the international business, consolidated sales revenues were down by 15.1 percent, from € 11.9 million to € 10.1 million.
In the business solutions segment, sales revenues were up 12.3 percent, from € 87.7 million to € 98.5 million. In the IT solutions segment they rose by 62.8 percent, from € 60.8 million to € 99.0 million.
The consolidated gross profit for the first half of 2009 was up 18.6 percent year on year, from € 46.2 million to € 54.8 million. The gross profit margin fell from 31.1 percent to 27.7 percent, owing to the addition of the trading business of the e-tailer Home of Hardware GmbH & Co. KG in 2008.
Gross profit of the CANCOM Group: year-on-year comparison of first half figures, 2008 and 2009 (in € million)
Consolidated EBITDA for the first half of 2009 was down year on year from € 3.7 million to € 2.8 million. The profit trend in the first half of the year reflects the depressed economic situation and its impact on nearly all sectors. There were significantly fewer working days in the second quarter of 2009 than in 2008 because of the way public holidays fell, and the effect of this, combined with restructuring costs, eroded the Group's profits.
EBITDA of the CANCOM Group: year-on-year comparison of first half figures, 2008 and 2009 (in € million)
Consolidated EBIT for the first half was down year on year, from € 2.8 million to € 1.6 million.
EBIT of the CANCOM Group: year-on-year comparison of first half figures, 2008 and 2009 (in € million)
The net income for the first half of 2009 was € 0.9 million, compared with € 1.5 million in the first half of 2008. Earnings per share are consequently € 0.08 for the first half of 2009, compared with € 0.15 for the first half of 2009.
The order position
In the business solutions segment and parts of the IT solutions segment, the majority of incoming orders are converted to sales within two weeks because of our large delivery capacity. Consequently, the reporting date figures on their own do not give a true picture of our order situation in this area of business, which is why they are not published.
Because of the stable services business – which now accounts for about two thirds of the gross profits (total output less material costs and services rendered) – as well as the healthy condition of the balance sheet, the management feels the Group is in a strong position within the IT sector.
b) Asset and financial position
Objectives of financial management
The core objective of the financial management of the CANCOM Group is to safeguard its liquidity at all times, to ensure that day-to-day business activities can be continued. In addition, the Group aims to achieve optimum profitability as well as a high credit status to ensure favourable refinancing rates.
Notes on the capital structure
On the assets side of the consolidated balance sheet, there was a 15.1 percent fall in current assets to € 70.7 million between 31 December 2008 and 30 June 2009. Trade accounts receivable went down by 6.1 percent to € 41.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents fell to € 7.7 million between 31 December 2008 and 30 June 2009 owing to seasonal effects, but was up year on year from € 7.3 million to € 7.7 million. Non-current assets were 1.1 percent lower than at 31 December 2008, at € 37.0 million.
On the liabilities side of the balance sheet, there was a 20.9 percent fall in current liabilities to € 48.1 million. This is mainly owing to the reduction in trade accounts payable from € 39.3 million to € 32.3 million. Other current financial liabilities, short-term loans and the current component of long-term loans fell from € 4.4 million to € 2.3 million.
Non-current liabilities with a remaining term of at least one year were 5.7 percent lower than at 31 December 2008, at € 19.7 million.
The balance sheet total fell to € 107.7 million, compared with € 120.7 million at 31 December 2008.
The nominal equity capital was increased from € 38.9 million to € 39.9 million over the first half of 2009, mainly through transfers to net profits. Overall, therefore, the equity ratio as at 30 June 2009 was 37.0 percent, compared with 32.2 percent as at 31 December 2008.
Notes on the changes in the cash flow
The cash flow from ordinary activities is traditionally negative during the year, and as at 30 June 2009 there was a negative cash flow of € 9.2 million. This is mainly owing to a reduction in trade accounts payable as well as a change in inventories.
The cash flow from investing activities fell from € 0.8 million as at 30 June 2008 to a negative cash flow of € 0.4 million as at 30 June 2009.
The negative cash flow from financing activities was higher than in the first half of 2008, at € 0.9 million compared with € 0.2 million in the same period of the previous year.
Net cash as at 30 June 2009 was higher overall than at the same date in 2008, at € 7.7 million compared with € 7.3 million. Of this figure, € 0.1 million is cash from discontinued operations.

5. Risk report
There have been no major changes in the risks of future development at CANCOM since the start of the current financial year. Details of the risks can be found in the annual report for 2008, starting on page 36. The annual report can be downloaded from www.cancom. de, or obtained free of charge from the Company.
6. Opportunities report
There have been no major changes in the opportunities of future development at CANCOM since the beginning of the current financial year. Details of the opportunities can be found in the annual report for 2008, starting on page 41.
7. Forecast
After the sharp downturn in the economy in Germany at the beginning of the year, there are now increasing signs of a levelling-off. The German Ministry for Economics feels that, although the figures for the second quarter could show another deterioration in the performance of the economy as a whole, any downturn should be much less severe than before.
In the first quarter, Germany's gross domestic product was 3.8 percent lower than in the previous quarter. The German Institute for Economic Research (Deutsches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung) expects the figures for the second quarter to show a quarter-on-quarter decline of 0.5 percent in economic output.
Forecasts for economic growth in 2009 range between minus 1.5 percent (worldwide) and minus 6.0 percent (Germany) (source: Deutsche Bank Research, 9 July 2009). The economy is only expected to pick up again from 2010, following the economic recovery programmes currently being pursued.
The latest forecasts of the German Association for Information Technology, Telecommunications and New Media (BITKOM) suggest that given the current economic crisis IT sales will probably fall by approximately 2.2 percent in 2009, following growth of about 3.4 percent in 2008. The hardware segment is expected to shrink by 7.0 percent (2008: 0 percent) and the software segment by 2.2 percent (2008: growth of 3.7 percent). The IT services segment is expected to grow slightly by 0.7 percent (2008: 5.7 percent).
Performance of the German IT sector in 2009*
(real change in comparison with 2008, as a percentage)
* Forecast: BITKOM, July 2009
BITKOM identifies future IT trends in which there is growth potential even in times of crisis.
CANCOM geared its business policy to the IT trends of the future at an early stage, and its sales and services structure is designed accordingly. Because of the promising prospects, the Group plans to continue pursuing the same policy in the future.
CANCOM has expanded its market presence as well as improving its customer proximity in the German-speaking countries, and is represented all over Germany and Austria by its many service and consulting locations.
In the business solutions segment, the sales structures are to be optimised further, for instance by expanding key account management. Key account management improves customer proximity and helps achieve an integrated approach to customers, especially in identifying their services requirements. This structure facilitates the efficient and fast identification of potential IT projects.
The tried and tested concept of specialist sales and marketing departments works by bundling specific expertise in dedicated units, while allowing the sales department quick access to information on the situations of individual customers. This concept is being expanded to ensure optimal dovetailing of the trading and service/consulting areas.
Additionally, the CANCOM Group's market position in the German IT environment is to be consolidated by means of targeted acquisitions. The market environment continues to offer favourable conditions for this policy, since several small, mostly owner-managed, integrated systems providers and IT service providers are looking for prospective buyers.
In consideration of the present conditions, for the financial years 2009 and 2010 the Executive Board expects further growth in sales revenues, a downturn in profits, but a continued positive financial situation.
The Executive Board wishes to point out that the actual results may deviate substantially from expectations. Forecasting is made significantly more difficult by the uncertain economic conditions.
8. Responsibility statement by the management
To the best of our knowledge, and in accordance with the applicable reporting principles for interim financial reporting, the interim consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Group, and the interim management report of the Group includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Group, together with a description of the principal opportunities and risks associated with the expected development of the Group for the remaining months of the financial year.

The Executive Board
This document has not been audited. It contains statements and information about the future that are based on the assumptions and estimates of the Executive Board of CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft. These statements are identifiable by words and phrases such as "plan", "intend", "will", "expect", "we feel" etc. and are based on current expectations, assumptions and assessments.

The following influencing factors are relevant in this respect: changes in the general economic and business situation; changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates; changes in the competitive situation, for instance by the emergence of new competitors, new products and services or new technologies; changes in the consumer habits of target customer groups etc.; and changes to the business strategy. CANCOM does not plan to update its forecasts beyond the legal requirements, nor does it make any commitment to do so.

The borrowed capital is defined as current and non-current financial liabilities, provisions, liabilities connected with disposals, prepaid expenses and deferred charges, and other liabilities.
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.
The secondary segment reporting format of the CANCOM Group is based on the business segments: business solutions and IT solutions.
Internal sales are recorded on the basis of either their cost or their current market prices, depending on the type of service or product sold.
The CANCOM Group's primary segmental reporting for 2009 includes the following companies in Germany: CANCOM Deutschland GmbH, CANCOM IT Solutions GmbH, CANCOM NSG GmbH, CANCOM SYSDAT GmbH, SYSNET Computer-Systemvertriebsgesellschaft mbH, Home of Hardware GmbH & Co. KG, Home of Hardware Verwaltungs GmbH, CANCOM physical infratructure GmbH, Novodrom People Value Service GmbH, acentrix GmbH, CANCOM Service Center Süd GmbH (formerly CANCOM EN GmbH), CANCOM Financial Services GmbH and CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft.
The Europe segment includes CANCOM Computersysteme GmbH, a + d IT solutions GmbH, CANCOM Ltd., CANCOM (Switzerland) AG and Softmail IT AG (up to 30 June 2008).
The performance pool method is used for internal transfer pricing for transactions between the segments.
The following table shows various disclosures in the consolidated financial statements according to region. All figures were calculated in the same way as the relevant consolidated data; the totals for the segmented data are therefore consistent with the consolidated figures.
