extraordinary general meeting held on 17 June 2016 and completed as of 1 July
2016. The costs of the continuing operations have subsequently been adjusted.

CEMAT A/S
Interim report, Q2 2016
1 January–30 June 2016

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER

-- On 17 June, the sale of Topsil’s silicon business to GlobalWafers was
approved at an extraordinary general meeting, and the listed company Topsil
Semiconductor Materials A/S with the remaining activities changed its name
to Cemat A/S.
-- The sale was completed as of 1 July, and in immediate continuation of the
divestment, the costs of Cemat were adjusted by measures including
severance agreements with the members of the Management Board and by
reducing the number of members of the Board of Directors.
-- The consideration amounted to DKK 355 million on a debt-free basis, and
after completion of the transaction, repayment of bank debt and the
adjustment of the cost level, the company expects to have excess liquidity
allowing for DKK 120 million to be returned to the shareholders of Cemat.
-- As the transaction was not completed until in Q3 2016, this H1 report must
be divided into continuing and discontinued operations.
-- EBITDA from the property business was DKK 1.9 million in Q2 2016 (Q2 2015:
DKK 1.7 million).
-- A profit of DKK 33.6 million was posted for Q2 2016 and a loss of DKK 58.8
million for H1 2016, of which DKK 33 million was attributable to release
from a supplier contract and DKK 7.1 million to impairment of the assets of
the silicon business.

OUTLOOK FOR for 2016

-- Revenue for Cemat A/S is expected to amount to DKK 36 million in 2016,
assuming that the Polish silicon business (Topsil GlobalWafers) stays on as
a tenant throughout 2016 and purchases utilities (hydrogen, power, water,
etc.) from Cemat’70 at the same level as previously.
-- EBITDA generated by the Polish property business (Cemat’70) is expected to
be around DKK 6 million. The costs of Cemat A/S will be significantly
higher than expected in the coming years as the restructuring took place in
the middle of the year.
-- For the year as a whole, EBITDA is expected to amount to a loss of DKK 15
million, impacted by restructuring costs of approximately DKK 12 million.
In this estimate, the operating costs of Cemat A/S before restructuring
costs are expected to be DKK 9 million, which, as described in announcement
28/16 of 3 August 2016, is expected to be reduced to approximately DKK 2
million in the coming years.

The guidance is based on an exchange rate of DKK 170/PLN 100.
