DCI AG taps new lucrative market segment Ad-hoc-announcement transmitted by DGAP. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. ——————————————————————————– DCI AG taps new lucrative market segment Conrad Electronic GmbH decides in favour of DCI TradeManager Starnberg, Germany – 12 December 2001. A strategic contract in the mail-order segment paves the way for DCI AG to tap a new, lucrative market. Conrad Electronic GmbH, Europe’s largest mail-order company for electronic equipment and consumer electronics, has decided to deploy DCI TradeManager as its catalogue software solution. DCI AG sees the move as convincing proof-of-concept for its TradeManager solution, and is confident that it will send a strong message to other mail-order companies. DCI AG anticipates a strong increase in revenue from this segment in fiscal year 2002. The electronic mail-order catalogue sector is a strategic win for DCI AG in view of the size of this market. The German mail-order market alone is worth some 42 billion German Marks a year and key players on the German market are set to help shape the global e-market of the future. Conrad Electronic GmbH will use DCI TradeManager to electronically distribute its entire portfolio (some 50,000 articles) to its customers on a CD. The DCI TradeManager (Catalogue Viewer) gives the user a single, standardised view of different catalogues and their contents. The standardisation of catalogue content presents interesting cross-selling opportunities among mail-order companies. The DCI TradeManager is targeted at both the business-to-business and business- to-consumer markets. First introduced in 1993, the current version (Version 8.1) reflects a host of ongoing improvements and enhancements. end of ad-hoc-announcement (c)DGAP 12.12.2001 ——————————————————————————– WKN: 529 530; ISIN: DE0005295307; Index: Listed: Neuer Markt in Frankfurt; Freiverkehr in Berlin, Bremen, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Hannover, München und Stuttgart 122034 Dez 01
