Preface
Dear shareholders,
CANCOM is continuing to expand. We are delighted to report that in the first quarter of 2011 we have managed to build on the success of the past financial year by producing the best first-quarter figures in the company's history. The positive mood in the economy in general continued in the first few months of this year. The combination of this and, in particular, our good market position, meant that we were able to generate record sales revenues and profits.
Our acquisition of the SAP Hosting and IT Services division of Plaut AG at the end of 2010 enabled us to extend further our expertise in the high-quality consulting and services business. In the first quarter of 2011 we also achieved significant successes in the cloud computing market, with its high growth potential, by entering into a strategic partnership with IBM for the distribution of our CANCOM AHP Private Cloud solution and by winning a Best Cloud Solution Partner award from IBM in 2010.
According to the latest industry barometer of the German Association for Information Technology, Telecommunications and the New Media, BITKOM, the mood in the IT sector continues to be positive. The great majority of companies surveyed expect further year-on-year increases in sales revenues for 2011 as a whole. At CANCOM, we are also very confident about the prospects for the remainder of the year. Our operating strength and our good cash position give us sufficient room for manoeuvre in making acquisitions to drive our growth.
Many thanks for your confidence in CANCOM, and for your continued support.
Kind regards,
Klaus Weinmann, CEO
Consolidated Interim Management Report on consolidated financial statement (page 12 ff)
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 financial and management role for the equity investments held by the CANCOM Group.
Focus of activities and sales markets
One of the three largest independent integrated systems providers in Germany, the CANCOM Group has steadily been transformed over the last few years through strategic acquisitions from a systems house focusing primarily on hardware and software, into an IT architect, IT systems integrator and Managed Service Provider. As a provider of integrated services, its central focus is now on providing IT ser-vices in addition to selling hardware and software from prestigious manufacturers. Its IT services range includes design and integration of IT systems, as well as sys-tem operation.
The CANCOM Group's customer base therefore includes primarily commercial end-users, from independent professionals to medium and large-sized companies and public-sector institutions. Through the e-commerce platform of HOH Home of Hardware GmbH at www.hoh.de, the CANCOM Group provides products and ser-vices to private as well as business customers.
Explanation of the control system used within the Group
To control and monitor the development of the individual subsidiaries, once a month CANCOM analyses, among other things, their sales revenues, gross profit, operating expenditure and operating profit, and compares these key figures 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 investigation.
Research and development activities
Innovation is very important for economic momentum and growth. CANCOM con-centrates its research and development activities on IT growth segments such as Cloud Computing, virtualisation solutions, managed services, online technologies, systems development and process optimisation.
Overview of the CANCOM Group's business performance
The CANCOM Group's consolidated sales revenues for the first quarter of 2011 increased by 23.4 percent year-on-year from € 114.6 million to € 141.4 million. Consolidated gross profits were up 10.3 percent, from € 36.0 million to € 39.7 million. The gross profit margin fell from 31.4 percent to 28.1 percent. Consolidated EBITDA rose by 54.8 percent to € 4.8 million, compared with € 3.1 million in the first quarter of 2010.
Consolidated EBIT was up 40.9 percent year-on-year, from € 2.2 million to € 3.1 million. The consolidated profit for the quarter was € 1.7 million, compared with € 1.4 million in the first quarter of 2010. This resulted in earnings per share of € 0.16, compared with € 0.13 in the same period of 2010.
Significant events and investments
CANCOM has invested about € 1.5 million in a new webshop to expand the e-commerce business.

The gross profit margin fell from 31.4 percent to 28.1 percent, mainly as a result of the growth of the trade business due to constant positive economic climate.
2. Earnings, financial and assets position of the CANCOM Group
a) Earnings position
There was a considerable year-on-year increase in sales revenues and profit in the first three months of 2011 and so realizes the best first quarter in the company's history. The consolidated sales revenues of the CANCOM Group in the first three months of the current year rose by 23.4 percent year on year, from € 114.6 million to € 141.4 million. The organic growth amounted 22.3 percent in the first quarter of 2011.
CANCOM Group's gross profit:
year-on-year comparison of first quarter figures, 2010 and 2011 (in € million)
Consolidated EBITDA for the first three months of 2011 was up 54.8 percent on the same period in 2010, at € 4.8 million compared with € 3.1 million.
CANCOM Group's EBITDA:
year-on-year comparison of first quarter figures, 2010 and 2011 (in € million)
Consolidated EBIT for the first three months of 2011 amounts to € 3.1 million, as compared with € 2.2 million in the first three months of 2010, equivalent to a growth of 40.9 percent.
CANCOM Group's EBIT:
year-on-year comparison of first quarter figures, 2010 and 2011 (in € million)
The net income for the first three months of 2011 amounted to € 1.7 million, in comparison with € 1.4 million in 2010. As a result, earnings per share were € 0.16, compared with € 0.13 for the first three months of 2010.
The order position
In the e-commerce/trade 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.
In the IT solutions segment, orders are often given over long periods. At present, the volume of orders is rising slightly.
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.
Explanations of individual items on the income statement
Further details on items in the income statement are given in the Notes to the consolidated income statement.
b) Financial and assets position
Objectives of financial management
The core objective of the financial management of the CANCOM Group is to safe-guard 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 17.8 percent decrease in current assets between 31 December 2010 and 31 March 2011, from € 120.3 million to € 98.9 million. Cash and cash equivalents are down from € 31.5 million to € 11.8 million. Trade accounts receivable were also down, from € 68.0 million to € 63.7 million.
Non-current assets amount to € 56.1 million at 31 March 2011 remained almost unchanged compared with € 57.2 million at 31 December 2010.
On the liabilities side of the balance sheet, current liabilities are clearly down 25.4 percent on the figure at 31 December 2010, from € 89.8 million to € 67.0 million, mainly as a result of the reduction in trade accounts payable from € 64.4 million to € 45.6 million.
Non-current liabilities, which comprises liabilities with a residual term of at least one year, are down from € 36.6 million to € 35.5 million.
The balance sheet total was down to € 155.1 million as at 31 March 2011, compared with € 177.4 million at 31 December 2010.
The nominal equity capital has been increased from € 51.0 million to € 52.5 million since the start of the year, mainly through transfers to net profits. Overall, this resulted in an equity ratio of 33.8 percent at 31 March 2011 compared with 28.7 percent at 31 December 2010.
Further details of the individual balance sheet items can be found in the Notes to the consolidated balance sheet.
Notes to the statement of cash flows
The cash flow from ordinary activities is typically highly negative during the course of the year, and there was a negative cash flow of € 15.9 million as at 31 March 201. The change in comparison with the same date in 2010 was influenced by the increase of balance between trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable.
The negative cash flow from investing activities amounts to € 2.4 million compared with a negative cash flow from investing activities of € 8.1 million in the first quar-ter of 2010.
The negative cash flow from financing activities amounts to € 1.2 million compared with a positive cash flow from financing activities of € 1.4 in the first quarter of 2010.
Overall, this results in cash and cash equivalents of € 11.8 million, compared with € 4.2 million in 2010.

7. Forecast
The German Institute for Economic Research, DIW, forecasts a sharp increase in Germany's gross domestic product (GDP) for the first quarter of 2011 compared with the previous quarter. The outlook for the year as a whole is also good. Experts from leading German research institutes expect GDP to rise by 2.8 percent this year. This is a significant increase on their previous forecast for economic growth in Germany. The German Federal Government is also optimistic about the outlook, and has increased its forecast for GDP growth in 2011 to 2.6 percent, as compared with the 2.3 percent forecast last autumn.
Gross domestic product in 2011* (real change compared with 2010 as a percentage)
According to the latest market figures from the German IT sector organisation BITKOM, experts expect the German European IT market 2011 to grow by 4.3 percent in 2011, compared with 3.0 percent in 2010.
Growth of 5.6 percent is forecast for the hardware segment, compared with 5.1 percent in 2010. The software segment is expected to grow by 4.5 percent, compared with 3.5 percent in 2010, and the IT services segment is anticipated to in-crease by 3.5 percent, compared with 1.7 percent in 2010.
Trend in the German IT sector in 2011*
(real change in comparison to 2010 as a percentage)
Against the background of the acquisitions made, and in consideration of the Group's positive performance, its good positioning in the growth market of cloud computing and the promising economic outlook, from today's point of view, the Executive Board expects the year 2011 to bring further growth in sales revenues and profits, with a continued positive financial situation.
Jettingen-Scheppach, May 2011 CANCOM IT Systeme AG
The Executive Board
The German SAP services market went up 4.4 percent in 2010 year on year. PAC expects a further significant increase of 7.7 percent in Germany in 2011. CANCOM should also
* Forecast: BITKOM, March 2011
profit from this, since CANCOM Plaut Managed Services GmbH pro-vides SAP users with support for SAP operation as well as with the necessary infra-structure.
In view of the opportunities for future growth in e-commerce, CANCOM is consolidating its activities in the area of e-procurement and customised shops. Custom-ised shops are web-based shops containing a fixed, individual product range. They offer customers the advantage of ensuring that the infrastructure will be consistent for all orders. This in turn offers CANCOM the opportunity for sustained strength-ening of customer loyalty.
CANCOM was early in gearing its business policy to the future IT trends referred to above, and designed its sales and services structure around them. Furthermore CANCOM has expanded its market presence as well as improving its customer proximity in the Germanspeaking countries, and is represented all over Germany and Austria by its many service and consulting locations.
Thanks to its proven expertise and outstanding market position in the IT trend areas described, CANCOM wants to grow faster than the IT market if demand for IT products and services remains steady or continues to increase.
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. Al-though we feel that these expectations are realistic, we cannot guarantee their correctness, especially in our forecast. The assumptions may be subject to several internal and external risks and uncertainties, which may lead to the actual results deviating considerably, either positively or negatively, from the situations and figures forecast. 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.

NOTES
to the consolidated accounts for the quarter ended 31 March 2011
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") for the financial year 2009 were drawn up according to the International Financial Reporting Standards or the International Accounting Standards (IFRS/IAS).
The interim consolidated financial statements of the CANCOM Group are drawn up and published in euro.
This interim consolidated financial report is condensed and was drawn up in compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. It should be read in conjunction with the IFRScompliant consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2010, which can be downloaded from www.cancom.de.
2. Reporting entity – 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.
3. Accounting and valuation policies
The interim consolidated financial report is compiled using basically the same accounting and valuation methods as those used for the consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2010.
B. Notes to the consolidated balance sheet
1. Other current financial assets
This item includes bonuses due from suppliers (€ 1,603k), a claim to the payment of a purchase price (€ 598k), receivables due from suppliers for returned goods (€ 488k), marketing revenue (€ 363k), creditors with a debit balance (€ 340k), claims in respect of loans (€ 201), receivables from employees (€ 163k), and receivables from former shareholders (€ 53k).
2. Prepaid expenses, deferred charges and other current assets
This item mainly consists of other current assets such as tax refunds (€ 2,143k), receivables from social insurance agency, compensation damages (€ 82k), receivables from the German Federal Employment Agency (€ 43k) and security deposit (€ 10k).
The prepaid expenses and deferred charges (€ 1,150k) also include deferred insurance premiums.
3. Financial assets
Financial assets are shares in Plaut Aktiengesellschaft. CANCOM IT Systeme Aktiengesellschaft has no significant influence on Plaut Aktiengesellschaft. The shares are recognised at the closing price of € 0.819 in the Xetra trading system as at 31 March 2011. The price difference is shown under exchange rate difference in the statement of comprehensive income.
4. Deferred tax assets
The deferred tax assets are as follows:
| Deferred tax resulting from | temporary | tax loss |
|---|---|---|
| differences | carryforward | |
| €'000 | €'000 | |
| As at January 2011 | 406 | 294 |
| Zugang Addition from revaluation of financial | ||
| instruments recognised directy in equity | 17 | 0 |
| Tax expenditure from profit and loss calculation | -35 | -19 |
| As at 31 March 2011 | 388 | 275 |
As at 31 March 2011, the CANCOM Group had corporation tax loss carryovers of € 10.0 million and trade tax loss carryovers of € 9.1 million. The unused corporation tax losses for which no deferred tax claim was recognised in the balance sheet amounted to € 9.1 million, and the trade tax loss carryovers for which no deferred tax claim was recognised amounted to € 8.1 million.
The amounts referred to include components of € 8.7 million (corporate tax) and € 8.1 million (trade tax), which have been called into question because of the EU Commission's legal interpretation of the restructuring clause in Section 8 c of the German Corporate Tax Act (Körperschaftsteuergesetz, KStG) and cannot be used at present. If this amount cannot ultimately be used, the loss carryovers will amount to € 0.4 million (corporate tax) and € 0.0 million (trade tax).
The deferred taxes from temporary differences are the result of other provisions (€ 147k), differences in goodwill (€ 134k), elimination of sales within the Group (€ 66k) and intangible assets (€ 21k).
5. Other current financial liabilities
This item includes debtors with a credit balance (€ 1,244k), outstanding bills of charge (€ 752k), purchase price liabilities (€ 345k) and liabilities to the Supervisory Board (€ 50k).
6. Other provisions
Provisions mainly includes guarantees and warranties (€1,508k), the price of shares in affiliated companies (€ 1,267k), severance payments and salaries (€ 917k), additional leasing costs (€ 427k), contingent risks (€ 191k) and provisions for financial statement costs (€ 94k).
The total provisions include long-term provisions of € 2,901k, which are disclosed at the amount of € 1,266k under other non-current financial liabilities and at the amount of € 1,635k under other non-current liabilities. They are mainly purchase price liabilities (€ 1,266k), a provision for guarantees and warranties (€ 706k), a provision for severance payments which are legally mandatory in Austria (€ 467k), anniversaries (€ 184k), additional leasing costs (€ 139k), provisions for part-time employment prior to retirement (€ 95k) and provisions for contingent risks (€ 44k).
7. Other current liabilities
Other current liabilities mainly include bonus payments to Board members and employees (€ 3,040k), sales tax (€ 2,604k), holiday and overtime entitlements (€ 2,150k), tax on wages and salaries and church tax (€ 1,771k), trade association payments (€ 911k), wages and salaries (€ 152k), social security contributions (€ 95k) and compensation levy for non-employment of the severely handicapped (€ 43k).
8. Deferred tax liabilities
The deferred tax liabilities are as follows:
| As at 31 March 2011 | 4,065 |
|---|---|
| profit and loss account - tax expenses | -176 |
| disposal from revaluation of financial instruments recognised directly in equity | -68 |
| As at January 2011 | 4,309 |
| €'000 |
The deferred tax liabilities arise from deviations from the tax balance sheets. They are the result of the revaluation of intangible assets (€ 4,021k), capital from profit-participation rights and subordinated loans (€ 18k), orders in process (€ 13k), property, plant and equipment (€ 8k), other provisions (€ 3k) and pension provisions (€ 2k).
They are recognised at an individual tax rate of between 25 percent (for the Austrian subsidiary) and 32.98 percent.
C. Notes to the consolidated income statement
1. Segment information (see page 17-18)
For a description of the segments subject to mandatory reporting, please see page 70 of CANCOM's annual report for 2010.
Reconciliation
Reconciliation shows items not directly connected with the operating segments and the other companies. They include sales within the segments, and the income tax expense.
The income tax expense is not a component of the profits of the operating segments. Since the tax expense is allocated to the parent company where the parent company is the taxable entity, the allocation of the income tax does not exactly correspond to the structure of the segments.
