Operating environment
Economy
In the second quarter of 2013, the global economy lost momentum, with the emerging markets also expanding at a somewhat slower rate. The United States continued on the previous year's steady growth trajectory, while Western Europe remained mired in recession. In Japan, the outlook brightened not least of all due to the depreciation of the yen. Against the backdrop of the fragile economic conditions, the central banks retained their accommodative monetary policies, although the US Fed is now considering the possibility of tightening the monetary reins as the US economy is gradually finding traction. However, short-end interest rates should remain low until 2014.
Experts are now projecting global GDP growth of only 3.0% (previously 3.2%) for 2013, merely a minor increase over the previous year (2.9%). Momentum is expected to pick up in 2014, with global GDP set to expand by 3.9%; Europe should also achieve weak growth again. At the same time, the Chinese economy should also unleash greater momentum in 2014.

Automotive industry
In the year to date, global automobile sales have continued to paint a regionally very mixed picture. In China, the world's largest automobile market, sales exceeded the previous year by an impressive 21%. Vehicle sales have also continued to grow in other emerging markets as well as in the United States. On the other hand, India and Russia have reported declines of 10% and 2%, respectively, although experts consider this to be only a temporary blip. Sales in Western Europe were down 7% year over year.

Other sectors
Global air traffic expanded by 4.6% in the first five months of 2013 (source: IATA), with stronger year-on-year growth of 5.6% recorded in May. A full-year increase of around 5% is expected for 2013. Greater capacity utilization should cause most airlines' earnings to rise slightly. The two large aircraft builders Airbus and Boeing recorded brisk order intake in the first half of 2013 not least of all in the wake of the Paris Air Show in June. Airbus' order backlog exceeded 5,000 aircraft for the first time.
The German mechanical and plant engineering sector has recently had to lower its forecasts for 2013. After previously projecting 2% growth in output, the industry association VDMA is now expecting contraction of 1%. Order intake shrank by 1% year on year in January through May 2013, with a decline of 5% in May (source: VDMA).
Business performance1
Order intake down on the previous year's high figure as expected
Group order intake came to € 1,293.5 million in the first half of 2013 and, as expected, fell short of the previous year's very high figure by 7.9%. In the second quarter, we received orders worth € 613.1 million (-15.5%). Our four divisions performed disparately: Whereas order intake for Paint and Assembly Systems was down 11% on the first half of 2012, Application Technology posted a 7.5% gain. Measuring and Process Systems posted a 15.0% drop in new orders particularly as a result of the more subdued demand registered in the Balancing and Assembly Products business unit on the part of customers in the general mechanical engineering industry. Order intake stabilized in the Cleaning and Filtration Systems business unit following last year's deliberate decision to reject low margin business. Clean Technology Systems (exhaust-air purification and energy efficiency technology) recorded a 9.2% decline in new orders in the first half of 2013. The price quality of new orders was satisfactory across all four divisions.
In the emerging markets (Mexico, Brazil, Eastern Europe, Asia excluding Japan), we registered dynamic demand in the first half of 2013, with order intake in this region surging by 24.2% to € 755.2 million, thus accounting for a high 58.4% of total new orders within the Group. The strong performance in China, where orders rose by 63.8% over the relatively muted first half of 2012, was particularly remarkable. We also received several orders from European automotive OEMs in the growing Brazilian market. After a muted start to the year, orders in North America rose sharply. Following on from the previous year's high level, order intake in Western Europe (excluding Germany) and Germany contracted by 44.6% and 34.5%, respectively, in line with expectations.
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
/ / Imcoming orders (million Euros) January - June 2013 //////////////////////
Consolidated sales came to € 1,131.7 in the first half of 2013, down a slight 2.7% year over year. At € 589.2 million, sales in the second quarter fell only 1.9% short of the previous year. The main reason for the shortfall in sales is that many contracts were in an early stage in which they made only a small contribution to the top line. In addition, Cleaning and Filtration Systems made a smaller contribution as it had deliberately rejected low margin large-scale orders in the previous year. Looking ahead over the next few quarters, we expect consolidated sales to gain momentum.
Orders on hand (June 30) 2,457.5 2,386.5 2,457.5 2,386.5
As in the previous quarters, order receipts again exceeded sales revenues in the first and second quarter of 2013, resulting in a book-to-bill ratio of 1.14 in the first half of the year. In addition, orders on hand were up 3% on mid 2012, rising to € 2,457.5 million. This is notionally equivalent to around one year's worth of sales and thus ensures capacity utilization until well into 2014.
After an increase of 2.7% in the first quarter, service sales climbed substantially in the second quarter and rose by 6.3% in the first half of the year. As a result, they accounted for 21% of consolidated sales (H1 2012: 19%). Looking ahead over the next few quarters, the sales share of service business should continue to widen thanks to the sharp growth in our installed base.
The regional breakdown of consolidated sales exhibited the customary balance in the first half of the year, with Germany accounting for 18%, other European countries 24%, North and South America 19% and Asia and Africa 39%. The emerging markets contributed 55% (H1 2012: 61%).
Earnings improved despite slight decline in sales
The gross margin continued to widen in the second quarter of 2013 and, at 20.0%, was well up on the year-ago figure of 17.6%. In the first half of 2013, it expanded by 2.4 percentage points to 19.4%. This was mainly due to high capacity utilization, the quality of our order execution activities and the billing of more profitable orders.
The cost of sales dropped by 5.5% to € 911.8 million in the first half of 2013 and thus more quickly than sales revenues. Accordingly, gross profit increased by 11.0% to € 219.9 million. The greater volume of internally-sourced production helped us to lower the ratio of consolidated cost of materials to sales revenues to 45.5% (H1 2012: 48.8%). In absolute terms, the consolidated cost of materials, which is fully included in the cost of sales, dropped to € 514.8 million (H1 2012: € 567.4 million).

Further improvement in EBIT
Whereas the headcount climbed by 8.0% over June 30, 2012 to 7,899 employees, selling and administrative expenses rose by 5.7% to € 118.0 million in the first half of 2013. Research and development expenses were increased by 18.3% to € 19.4 million. In connection with the innovation initiative forming part of our "Dürr 2015" strategy, further increases are planned to safeguard our technological leadership and to expand in new areas of business such as energy efficiency systems.
Net other operating expense came to € -0.1 million and therefore did not exert any major influence on earnings. The most important individual items were currency translation expenses (€ -8.0 million) and income (€ 6.7 million). In the previous year, net other operating income of € 2.2 million had been recorded due to income of € 1.5 million from the release of provisions.
Despite the small decline in revenues, EBIT climbed by 14.0% to € 82.4 million. As a result, the EBIT margin widened substantially to 7.3% (H1 2012: 6.2%), thus already achieving the full-year target corridor of 7.0 - 7.5% in the first half of the year. The
The financial result developed positively in the first half of 2013 reaching € -10.2 million. The improvement of € 2.6 million over the previous year is due to more favourable financing agreements which we were able to enter in the third quarter of 2012. Moreover, pension obligation expenses and liabilities arising from long-term working hour accounts were down.
With tax expense coming to € 19.8 million (H1 2012: € 15.5 million), earnings after tax rose to € 52.4 million in the first half of 2013 (H1 2012: € 44.0 million). The tax rate came to 27.4% and should be slightly above 25% for 2013 as a whole as we will be continuing to utilize or capitalize our unused tax loss carry-forwards given the positive earnings performance.
Material events
There were no singular events in the first half of 2013 materially impacting the Dürr Group's results of operations, financial condition and net assets. The faltering growth of the global economy has recently been leaving traces on order intake from the general industry. On the other hand, we are experiencing continued high levels of demand in the automotive industry.
Actual performance vs. forecast:
business performance in line with expectations
up 12.6% in the first half of 2013, rising to € 95.9 million.
Despite the muted sales revenues, business performed in accordance with our expectations in the first half of 2013. Against this backdrop, we re-affirm our full-year forecast from today´s perspective, which provides for sales revenues of € 2.4 to 2.6 billion, order intake of € 2.3 to 2.5 billion and an EBIT margin of 7.0 to 7.5%. We have not published any guidance for the first half of 2013 as quarterly or half-yearly forecasts do not do justice to the medium to long-term nature of our business. Further information on our full-year forecasts can be found in the Outlook section on page 27.
Financial position
Sharp improvement in cash flow from operating activities in Q2
In the second quarter of 2013, we achieved a positive cash flow from operating activities of € 41.8 million, up from € -29.7 million in the first quarter. Consequently, at € 12.1 million, the cash flow from operating activities for the first half was clearly in positive territory (H1 2012: € -64.6 million). The good performance in the second quarter was materially due to higher income and earnings as well as a reduction of € 20.2 million in net working capital (NWC). By contrast, NWC had risen by € 91.6 million in the previous year. Our operational liquidity planning for the next few quarters provides for a further reduction in NWC and continued positive cash flow.

* Currency translation effects have been eliminated from the cash flow statement. As such, the cash flow statement does not fully reflect all changes in balance sheet positions as shown in the statement of financial position.
Forfaiting, factoring and negotiation transactions must be taken into account when comparing cash flow over different reporting periods, although their influence has declined considerably in the last few years. In the first half of 2013, the volume of these transactions grew marginally by € 0.7 million after contracting by € 7.7 million in the same period of the previous year. Allowing for these changes, an adjusted cash flow from operating activities of € -56.9 million arose in the first half of 2012 and of € 11.4 million in the period under review.

Cash flow from investing activities of € -36.7 million was recorded in the first half of 2013 compared with € 21.4 million in the same period of 2012. Whereas term deposits had been dissolved in the previous year, we invested funds in term deposits and other financial assets in the period under review. This was joined by cash outflows for expenditure on property, plant and equipment.
The cash flow from financing activities of € -54.8 million in the first six months of 2013 (H1 2012: € -22.0 million) reflects the dividend distribution, interest payments and a reduction in current financial liabilities.
Free cash flow, which indicates the resources that are available for paying dividends, buying back shares and repaying net debt, stood at a small negative amount of € -10.3 million in the first six months of 2013 (H1 2012: € -81.7 million).

As of June 30, 2013, total assets stood at € 1,840.6 billion. Accordingly, they were up a small 1.8% over the end of 2012 but down on March 31, 2013. On the assets side, trade receivables and inventories increased by a total of € 91.8 million. On the liabilities side, trade payables climbed by only € 53.4 million. Net working capital (NWC) has risen by € 53.6 million before currency conversion since the end of 2012. At € 575.2 million, non-current assets remained largely unchanged. The decline of € 79.7 million in cash and cash equivalents primarily reflects the increase in inventories and trade receivables.

The negative free cash flow (€ -10.3 million) and the dividend outflow (€ 38.9 million) caused the net financial status to drop from € 96.7 million at the end of 2012 to € 43.0 million. However, compared with the middle of 2012 (€ -48.3 million), it was up by a sharp € 91.3 million.

Equity rose by a further € 5.9 million over the end of 2012 to € 438.0 million. This means that we were able to more than make up for the dividend distribution of € 38.9 million thanks to our strong earnings performance in the first half of the year. With total assets slightly higher, the equity ratio remained virtually unchanged at 23.8%. We expect equity and the equity ratio to improve substantially as the year progresses and are striving for a medium-term target of 30%, which we want to achieve by retaining profits.

- ► Issued in 2010, our corporate bond has a volume of € 225 million and expires in September 2015. It has an effective coupon of 6.83%. An early redemption option may be exercised from September 28, 2014.
- ► The syndicated loan taken out in 2011 comprises a cash facility of € 50 million and a guarantee facility of € 180 million. It expires in June 2014. On the strength of our improved credit standing, we were able to negotiate better terms with the syndicate banks last year. Among other things, it is now possible for the loan to be renewed until June 2015 at no extra cost.
- ► In June 2011, the European Investment Bank (EIB) approved a purpose-tied loan of € 40 million. If we draw on the loan by the end of 2013, it will be repaid step by step by 2017.
- ► In connection with the purchase of the Dürr campus in Bietigheim-Bissingen at the end of 2011, we assumed the related financing of € 45.8 million. The fixed-rate and annuity loans continue until September 30, 2024, but may be discharged at an earlier date subject to payment of early repayment fees.
In addition, there are bilateral credit facilities of a smaller volume and liabilities from finance leases as well as liabilities to companies accounted for using the equity method. The loans can be used in different currencies. In addition to money and capital market instruments, we utilize a small volume of off-balance-sheet financing instruments such as factoring programs and operating leases.
Off-balance-sheet financing instruments and obligations
The volume of off-balance-sheet financing instruments and obligations has changed only marginally since the end of 2012. Future minimum payments under operating leases amounted to € 107.8 million as of June 30, 2013, which was slightly lower than on December 31, 2012 (€ 110.9 million). We make selective use of receivables financing (forfaiting, factoring, negotiation) to reduce or stabilize the capital employed. Since the end of 2012, the volume of these transactions has risen marginally by € 0.6 million to € 22.6 million. The off-balance-sheet obligations also include liabilities of € 17.3 million from other continuing obligations (December 31, 2012 : € 15.3 million). As of June 30, 2013, we utilized guarantees of € 312.9 million comprising bank guarantees of € 171.1 million and fidelity bonds of € 141.8 million. The guarantees chiefly take the form of credit guarantees and sureties and do not constitute off-balance-sheet finance instruments.

Research and development
In the first half of 2013, we increased our direct R&D spending by 18.3% to € 19.4 million (H1 2012: € 16.4 million). This resulted in an R&D ratio of 1.7%, up from 1.4% in the year-ago period. Further development expense attributable to individual customer projects was included in the cost of sales. In addition, we capitalized development costs of € 1.6 million as intangible assets (H1 2012: € 1.6 million). As of June 30, 2013, the Group's R&D departments had a total of 210 employees, an increase of 13.5% over the same date in the previous year.
The Application Technology division optimized its EcoScreen visualization software. Using this software, plant operators are able to control the processes in robot spray booths simply. Despite the growing complexity of the robot systems, the new version permits straight-forward and intuitive operation. In the event of any disruptions, the causes can be diagnosed quickly and all relevant information collected.
The Cleaning and Filtration Systems business unit has completed development of the EcoCCore C/P3, a highly flexible universal cleaning system for material lots of up to 200 kg. Compared with its predecessor, the Universal 81C, the new system offers a 30% increase in capacity and hence a greater throughput rate. Other advantages of the EcoCCore C/P3 include its smaller footprint, short global delivery periods, simple operation and maintenance-friendly design.
The Balancing and Assembly Products business unit has developed the innovative Ventuo tire inflation system for the wheel/tire assembly segment. The main new element is the automatic change of the tire inflating ring. The automatic inflating ring change makes it possible to produce wheels flexibly with different rim sizes. In addition, Ventuo offers a high degree of maintenance ease, simple integration in existing wheel production lines and significant energy savings due to reduced compressed air requirements.
Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure rose by 36% to € 21.8 million in the first half of 2013. This primarily reflects the extension spending previously announced and scheduled for completion this year. Since the beginning of the year, capital expenditure has been almost solely confined to property, plant and equipment as well as intangible assets, with equity investments accounting for only € 0.1 million. The price for the acquisition of the business of environmental technology specialist Luft- und Thermotechnik Bayreuth GmbH (LTB) was not paid until July 2013.
A sum of € 17.9 million was spent on property, plant and equipment (H1 2012: € 10.7 million), while licenses, software and other intangible assets accounted for € 3.9 million (H1 2012: € 5.4 million). Corporate Center capital expenditure (€ 2.2 million) mainly comprises the purchases made by globally active Dürr IT Service GmbH (software and licenses).

Employees
More moderate growth in employee numbers
As of June 30, 2013, Dürr had 7,899 employees and thus 585 more than at mid 2012 (+8.0%). The additional recruiting was mainly due to the large volume of business. However, at 132 in the first quarter and 115 in the second quarter of 2013, the number of new recruits was somewhat smaller. Most of the additional employees are based in the growth markets of China and Brazil. All told, the headcount in the emerging markets increased by 12.3% over mid 2012, rising to 2,668 employees and equivalent to 33.8% of the Group workforce. In Germany, we increased staff numbers by 9.0% to 3,536 in the same period. On the other hand, the headcount in North America was adjusted to match smaller business volumes in Cleaning and Filtration Systems.

/ / PAINT AND ASSEMBLY SYSTEMS /////////////////////////////////////////////
As expected, order intake in the Paint and Assembly Systems division fell 11% short of the previous year's high figure in the first half of 2013. We received major orders from Brazil, China, Italy and the United States, for example. At just under 60%, the share contributed by the emerging markets to Paint and Assembly Systems´ order intake remained at a high level.
Order intake substantially exceeded sales again despite the 5.3% increase in the latter in the first half of the year. Consequently, the division's order backlog continued to grow. EBIT climbed to € 43.5 million, accompanied by an EBIT margin of a good 7.8% (H1 2012: 5.7%). In addition to the increase in sales, this was due to a wider gross margin, our good order execution and moderate overhead costs.

Order intake in the Application Technology division rose by 7.5% over the first half of 2012 to € 325.9 million. In the second quarter, it was up 4.7% year over year. In addition to new business, modernization business also performed very satisfactorily. Major contracts for the delivery of painting robots and application technology were received from China, South Africa and Brazil, with demand set to remain strong over the rest of the year.
Sales dropped slightly in the first half of 2013 as several contracts were still in a phase in which only small contributions are made to the top line. However, it should be possible to fill the revenues shortfall in the course of the year. The book-to-bill ratio in the Application Technology division stood at 1.3.
Application Technology was able to further widen its gross margin in the first half of 2013 thanks to high capacity utilization and the improved margin quality of orders on hand. With fixed costs rising slightly, EBIT increased by 7.1% to € 27.3 million, accompanied by an EBIT margin of 10.7%. In order to accommodate the large volume of business, we have increased the workforce by 14.7% to 1,469 since mid June 2012.

/ / Measuring and Process Systems /////////////////////////////////////////
Order intake in the Measuring and Process Systems division contracted by 15% in the first half of the year particularly as a result of the more subdued demand registered in the Balancing and Assembly Products business unit on the part of customers in the general mechanical engineering industry. Order receipts for Cleaning and Filtration Systems held almost steady after the previous year's deliberate decision not to accept less profitable business. This resulted in a 15.5% drop in sales revenues in the Measuring and Process Systems division in the first half of 2013. Sales in the Balancing and Assembly Products business unit remained at the previous year's level.
Due to a loss in Cleaning and Filtration Systems, the EBIT margin in the Measuring and Process Systems division contracted to 6.0% (H1 2012: 7.0%). In the first half of 2013, Cleaning and Filtration Systems completed almost all of the measures which it had adopted to adjust capacities to match the lower business volumes. Depending on future operating performance, further measures cannot be ruled out. Cleaning and Filtrations Systems expects a substantial improvement in earnings in the second half of the year.

The figures for the Clean Technology Systems division chiefly comprise our exhaust-air purification technology activities. In the area of energy efficiency technologies Thermea and Dürr Cyplan were fully consolidated in October and November 2012, respectively, but made only a small contribution to sales revenues in the first half of 2013.
Order intake and revenues in the Clean Technology Systems division fell slightly short of the previous year's level. The order backlog continued to rise as order intake exceeded sales by 35.4%. Despite start-up costs in the energy efficiency business, the division posted a substantial improvement in EBIT, underpinned in particular by the stronger second quarter. Since June 30, 2012, the headcount has risen by 65, including 31 people employed at Thermea and Dürr Cyplan.
Corporate Center
A loss of € 5.0 million was registered at the EBIT level in the Corporate Center (Dürr AG and Dürr IT Service GmbH) in the first half of 2013 after a loss of € 6.0 million in the same period of the previous year. This figure includes consolidation effects of € -1.0 million (H1 2012: € -0.9 million).
Opportunities and risks
The opportunities and risks of our business as well as the opportunity and risk management system are discussed in detail from page 110 of our annual report for 2012.
Risks
There is currently no evidence of any risks which either independently or in conjunction with other risks are liable to exert any sustained pressure on our results of operations, financial condition and net assets. Nor are any risks to the Group's going-concern status discernible.
We continue to consider the Group's overall risk situation as well manageable despite the slightly greater risk potential compared with the end of 2012.
We have recently noted that some small to mid-size companies are finding it more difficult to raise the necessary credit funding, resulting in corresponding spending restraint. In China, the increase in interest rates on interbank loans has so far not had any impact on the major automotive OEMs' capital spending behaviour. Usually, these customers finance their capital spending from their cash flows; moreover, vehicle sales have been very strong in the year to date. However, it remains to be seen whether the current problems in China develop into a serious financial crisis. In this case, general capital spending plans could come under pressure.
The automotive industry is scaling back its capital spending budgets in Western Europe due to weak vehicle sales. As a result, order volumes in this region have declined appreciably. However, Western Europe (excluding Germany) only accounts for a relatively small portion of the Group's order intake (H1 2013: 16%).
The risk situation in the project execution/engineering area, our main risk sector, is unchanged. Given our high capacity utilization, we cannot exclude the possibility of failing to observe project schedules or other commitments in individual cases. To address this risk, we have adjusted our capacities to accommodate the increased business volumes. Moreover, depending on available capacities, we are able to distribute work packages across our global facilities thanks to standardized products, business processes and IT structures.
Opportunities
The large order backlog of € 2,457.5 million ensures good forward visibility with respect to sales in the current year as well as high capacity utilization beyond 2013. With our strong local presence, we hold a good position in contract award processes in the high-growth emerging markets. In addition to new business, we also see good opportunities for growth in service and modernization business thanks to our broad installed base and mounting interest on the part of our customers in modernization spending to boost the productivity and efficiency of existing facilities.
24
In our core business, the acquisitions of the past three years are offering us additional opportunities for growth. Our strategy is to buy small technology-heavy niche companies and to expand their business on a global basis. In this way, we have entered new fields of business such as glueing technology, ultrafine cleaning systems and balancing technology for turbo-chargers.
We are well positioned in South-East Asia, which is one of the automotive industry's key growth markets of the future. Established at the beginning of 2012, our facility in Thailand is to be expanded step by step. Via our 10% equity interest in the Japanese paint systems engineer Parker Engineering we have improved our access to the Japanese automotive industry, which is the dominant player in South-East Asia. Annual automobile production in this region is expected to increase by 45% to 6.1 million units by 2017.
Our energy efficiency business also offers good opportunities for growth. For this reason, we are assembling a broad range of technologies for the utilization of heat and waste heat - both via acquisitions and internal developments. Sales revenues from Clean Technology Systems are expected to come to € 200 million by 2015.
Personnel changes
On April 26, 2013, the Supervisory Board of Dürr AG elected Klaus Eberhardt as its new chairman. Mr. Eberhardt has been a member of the Supervisory Board since April 2012 and follows Heinz Dürr, who resigned as chairman and stepped down from the Supervisory Board after 23 years. Mr. Dürr will continue to serve Dürr AG as an anchor shareholder and honorary lifetime chairman of the Supervisory Board. Dr. Herbert Müller was elected as a new member of the Supervisory Board at the annual general meeting held on April 26. He was management chairman at accounting company Ernst & Young up until 2011.

Outlook
Operating environment
The forecasts for the global economy have recently been adjusted downwards. Currently, economists are expecting global GDP growth of 3.0% for 2013, i.e. only marginally higher than in the previous year (2.9%). However, a more substantial increase of 3.9% is forecast for 2014. This is summarized in the table on page 5.
Automobile sales and GDP growth should continue to more or less correlate in the individual regions of the world. In contrast to Western Europe, automotive markets are continuing to expand in the United States, China and Brazil. Market observers generally consider the outlook for the automotive industry to be favorable. Although PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) lowered its production estimate for the sector again slightly in July 2013, it continues to forecast solid average growth of 5% in output over the next few years, with China set to remain the driving force behind the automobile industry in the long term. The European automobile market is likely to bottom out this year, posting average growth of 4% p.a. through 2017 due to baseline effects.

SALES REVENUES, INCOMING ORDERS AND EARNINGS
With our business performance matching expectations in the first half of the year, we are able at this stage to re-affirm our full-year forecast for 2013. The table above summarizes our targets.
Full-year sales should come to between € 2.4 and 2.6 billion in 2013. A higher figure is not realistic given that we are already operating at full capacity utilization and the Cleaning and Filtration Systems business unit has deliberately rejected low margin business. At this stage, we expect to be able to easily eliminate the small shortfall in sales arising in the first half of 2013. Order intake is expected to come to € 2.3 to 2.5 billion in 2013. The order backlog should have a value of substantially over € 2.0 billion by the end of the year. We are seeking a full-year EBIT margin in a target corridor of between 7.0 and 7.5% for 2013. The basis for this is the high capacity utilization, improved margins on the orders on hand as well as the growth being sought in service business.
The financial result should continue to improve in 2013 as the non-recurring strain occurring in 2012 will not be repeated and the improved terms for our syndicated loan will make themselves felt. Tax expense should rise by roughly the same rate as earnings, with the tax rate coming to slightly over 25% due to the utilization of unused tax loss carry-forwards. Consequently, earnings after tax are likely to continue rising. In accordance with our dividend policy, the distribution for 2013 should be between 30 and 40% of consolidated net profit and will therefore also be higher.
DIVISIONS
Dürr forecasts top-line and bottom-line growth in most of its divisions in 2013. Paint and Assembly Systems is benefiting from the strong demand in the automobile industry and the high order backlog. The same thing applies to Application Technology, where economies of scale and growing service business will spur earnings. Assuming that Cleaning and Filtration Systems´ earnings improve as expected in the second half of the year, the Measuring and Process Systems division will be able to repeat the previous year's strong earnings performance. Clean Technology Systems expects rising demand from the chemical and pharmaceuticals industry again, particularly in the emerging markets. Earnings in this division should improve despite the start-up costs in energy efficiency technology.
CASH FLOW, CAPITAL EXPENDITURE, FINANCIAL POSITION
Cash flow from operating activities should rise substantially in 2013 as a whole as net working capital is likely to return to normal again after accumulating in the previous year. This should be accompanied by an appreciable increase in free cash flow. We assume that cash flow will be sufficient to comfortably cover operating funding requirements (capital spending, interest payments etc.) and the dividend distribution in 2013. Moreover, we are able to resort to cash and cash equivalents as well as unused credit facilities of € 90 million for any acquisition financing which may be necessary.
Our guidance for capital expenditure on property, plant and equipment and on intangible assets has been € 35 to 40 million (net of acquisitions) so far. We are raising this forecast to € 45 to 50 million, meaning that capital spending will be slightly higher in the second half of 2013 than it was in the first half. This increase is due to additional extension spending, including the construction of a testing center in Japan and facility expansions in Germany and Poland. Of the capital spending planned for 2013, replacement spending should account for roughly € 20 million and extension spending for around € 30 million. In this way, we are adjusting our capacities to accommodate the sustained increase in demand and continuing the strategic expansion of our position in the emerging markets. We assume that capital spending will return to a normal level of around € 25 million in 2014.
We plan further technology acquisitions in 2013 and 2014 to strengthen our core business and to broaden energy efficiency activities in the Clean Technology Systems division. It is not yet possible to state the volume of the planned acquisitions, although it should substantially exceed the average acquisition amounts of the past few years (€ 12 million).
29
From today´s perspective, the net financial status should substantially exceed € 100 million at the end of 2013, with cash and cash equivalents coming to more than € 250 million. We expect further increases in equity, resulting in an equity ratio of over 25% by the end of 2013.
We currently do not have any corporate actions planned for 2013. We will be able to prematurely call in the outstanding bond issued in 2010 from September 28, 2014. Whether we utilize this right depends on the prevailing circumstances. At most, we want to use the syndicated loan to bridge any temporary fluctuations in net working capital or to fund an unusually large acquisition.
EMPLOYEES
The headcount is expected to rise to around 8,000 by the end of 2013. In this respect, the focus will be on the emerging markets, which are likely to account for roughly 34% of our Group workforce by the end of 2013 (June 30, 2013: 33.8%). Employee numbers will rise only slightly at most in the established markets.
Treasury stock and capital changes
On May 27, 2013, Dürr AG issued bonus shares on a 1-for-1 basis. As a result, the total number of shares issued by Dürr AG doubled from 17,300,520 to 34,601,040. The issue of the bonus shares was tied to a two-fold increase in the company's subscribed capital from € 44,289 thousand to € 88,578 thousand by means of a capital increase from company funds. For this purpose, open reserves were converted into subscribed capital. The shareholders' relative share in the company's subscribed capital did not change. The new shares are dividend-entitled with retroactive effect from January 1, 2013. The purpose of the bonus shares was to enhance market liquidity and to attract private investors. The measures were approved at the annual general meeting on April 26, 2013.
Dürr AG does not hold any treasury stock.
Performance of Dürr share
After entering the year on an upbeat note, equities markets came under pressure at the end of May on fears of an imminent end to the accommodative monetary policies. This triggered sharp losses in the international equities and bond markets. However, encouraging signals from the US Fed and moderate economic data have allayed these concerns. Against this backdrop, equities markets are continuing to benefit from the copious liquidity which is available, relatively low valuations, low interest rates and the lack of appeal of other types of investments.
With gains of 42% since the beginning of the year, the Dürr share has substantially outperformed the DAX, SDAX and MDAX, which advanced by between 5 and 16% in the same period. The strong performance of our stock was underpinned by the figures for 2012, which exceeded expectations, as well as the upbeat outlook for 2013.
Market participants also welcomed the issue of bonus shares on May 27, 2013. The Dürr share hit a new all-time high of € 52.75 on May 28, 2013. The price of our bond, which expires in 2015, dropped slightly to € 108.60 as of the end of June (end of 2012: € 110.30) as investors are increasingly factoring in the declining residual period until maturity.
SHAREHOLDER STRUCTURE
In February 2013, the Dürr family reduced its share in Dürr AG from 29.9% to 28.9%. In a corresponding press statement, the family stressed that it would be retaining at least 25.1% of Dürr AG stock in the long term as the anchor shareholder. Dürr AG's Board of Management holds a total of 1% of the subscribed capital. Although the free float has risen slightly to 71%, average trading volumes of our shares in the German stock exchanges have dropped to 152,000 shares in the current year (H1 2012: around 249,000). On the other hand, there has been a substantial increase in over-the-counter trading on various platforms.
Events after the reporting period
On July 4, 2013, we acquired the assets of the insolvent environmental technology specialist Luft- und Thermotechnik Bayreuth GmbH. The corresponding contract dated June 6, 2013, was executed on July 4, 2013, following receipt of antitrust clearance and the discharge of further conditions precedent. The provisional purchase price stands at € 9.0 million, with the final price dependent on the contributions to earnings made by the contracts existing as of the date of acquisition. This acquisition strengthens our market position in exhaust-air purification technology, broadens the Clean Technology Systems portfolio and provides us with access to new market segments such as the carbon industry. Synergistic benefits are particularly expected in purchasing and development activities. LTB had filed for insolvency in March 2013 following cost overruns and delays on major projects. It generated sales of € 24 million in 2012 and has 120 employees at its facility in Goldkronach near Bayreuth.
No other exceptional or reportable events occurred between the end of the reporting period and the publication of this report.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements January 1 to June 30, 2013
- Summary of significant accounting policies
The Company
Dürr Aktiengesellschaft ("Dürr AG" or the "Company") has its registered offices in Stuttgart, Germany. Its headquarters for operations are located at Carl-Benz-Strasse 34 in 74321 Bietigheim-Bissingen, Germany. The Dürr Group ("Dürr" or the "Group") consists of Dürr AG and its subsidiaries. The Dürr Group specializes in mechanical and plant engineering and is one of the global market leaders in almost all of its fields of business. It generates a good 80 % of sales revenues with the automotive industry, but also acts as supplier of production technology for other industries including the aviation, mechanical engineering, energy as well as the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Dürr serves the market with four divisions: the Paint and Assembly Systems division offers production and paint finishing technology, mainly for automotive bodyshells, but also for aircraft. Application Technology realizes products and systems for automated painting applications as well as sealing and glueing technology. The machines and systems produced by the Measuring and Process Systems division are used in engine and drive construction as well as final assembly. The Clean Technology Systems division manufactures plant and equipment for purifying exhaust gases produced by industrial processes and develops technologies for improving the energy efficiency of production processes.
Accounting policies
The interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union (EU) at the balance sheet date, and the additional requirements of German commercial law pursuant to Sec. 315a (1) HGB ("Handelsgesetzbuch": German Commercial Code).
The consolidated statements of income for the second quarter of 2013 and 2012 and the first six months of 2013 and 2012 have been prepared for interim financial information. The same applies to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the second quarter and the first six months of 2013 and 2012, for the consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2013, December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, and also for the consolidated statements of changes in equity for the first six months of 2013 and 2012 and the explanatory notes to the consolidated financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements are condensed and prepared in compliance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".
The interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013 are not subject to any review pursuant to Sec. 37w (5) WpHG ("Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act) or audit pursuant to Sec. 317 HGB.
The accounting policies used generally correspond to the methods applied in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012; we refer to our 2012 annual report.
The changes in accounting policies result from the adoption of the following new or revised standards:
- ► Amendment to IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures": The amendment contains supplementary mandatory disclosures on all financial assets and financial liabilities which are offset pursuant to IAS 32 "Financial Instruments: Presentation". In addition, disclosures are required on all financial instruments which are subject to enforceable master netting agreements or similar agreements. The amended standard became effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and has no material effects on the consolidated financial statements. For further disclosures please refer to note 9.
- ► IFRS 13 "Fair Value Measurement": This standard establishes guidance on fair value measurement when this is required or permitted by another standard. The standard became effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and has no material effects on the consolidated financial statements, but mandatory disclosures are expanded. For further disclosures please refer to note 9.
- ► Amendment to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements": The changes relate to the presentation of other comprehensive income. The items of other comprehensive income are to be classified into two different categories depending on whether they can be reclassified to profit or loss in a later period or not. The standard became effective for reporting periods beginning on or after July 1, 2012.
- ► IAS 19 rev. (2011) "Employee benefits": The amendments to IAS 19 cancel the optional right to the use of the corridor method and govern the process of accounting for changes to pension obligations through profit or loss and in other comprehensive income. In measuring the value of pension obligations, the Dürr Group already applied the SORIE method in the past instead of the corridor method alternatively permissible prior to IAS 19 rev. (2011). The abolition of the corridor method therefore has no consequences for Dürr. Immaterial effects on accounting for defined benefit plans arise at Dürr from the mandatory application of the principle to apply the same interest rate in calculating the expected yield for plan assets as for calculating the present value of defined benefit obligations. In addition, IAS 19 rev. (2011) replaces interest expenditure and expected interest income on plan assets in reporting with a net interest amount. Accounting for termination benefits at the end of employment has likewise been changed. At Dürr, this new regulation also applies to the valuation of, and accounting for, increased contributions and severance payments in the case of phased retirement arrangements. A retrospective adjustment would have increased Dürr's earnings by € 153 thousand in 2012; total comprehensive income, net of tax would have been up by € 164 thousand.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements for interim reporting pursuant to IAS 34 requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the application of accounting policies in the Group as well as the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual figures may diverge from these estimates. The methods of estimation used generally correspond to the methods applied in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2012.
Expenses that incurred irregularly during the reporting period have been cut off in those cases where they would also be cut off at year-end. Dürr's operations are not subject to material seasonal influences.
The income taxes for the interim reporting periods are determined on the basis of an estimated annual effective income tax rate for each individual entity.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in euros; all amounts are presented in thousands of euro (€ thousand or € k), unless stated otherwise.
In the reporting period no unusual events occurred that had a material effect on the interim report as of June 30, 2013.
2. Consolidated group
Besides Dürr AG, the consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013 contain all German and foreign entities which Dürr AG can control directly or indirectly (control concept). The entities are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which the possibility of control was obtained. Joint ventures and associates are included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method from the date on which joint control or the possibility of significant influence existed.
The table below shows the number of entities included in the consolidated group besides Dürr AG as the parent.

Effective as of January 1, 2013, Dürr purchased the remaining 50% of shares in Dürr EDAG Aircraft Systems GmbH with registered offices in Fulda, Germany, and therefore includes the entity in the consolidated financial statements as a fully consolidated entity. Following excution of the purchase agreement, the entity was renamed Dürr Parata GmbH and its registered offices transferred to Stuttgart, Germany. Until December 31, 2012, the company had been included as a joint venture in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
Dürr GmbH & Co. Campus KG based in Bietigheim-Bissingen, Germany, ceased to exist at the end of May 31, 2013. Its assets, liabilities and equity passed over to Dürr Systems GmbH, based in Stuttgart, Germany.
The consolidated financial statements contain ten entities (Dec. 31, 2012: ten) which have non-controlling interests.

3. Earnings per share
Earnings per share is determined pursuant to IAS 33 "Earnings per Share". Earnings per share is calculated as the profit share of the shareholders of Dürr AG divided by the weighted average number of shares issued. The calculation is presented in the table below. There were no dilutive effects in the first six months of 2013 and 2012. The issue of bonus shares on May 27, 2013, doubled the number of shares specified (please refer to note 7). The previous year's figure has been adjusted accordingly.

- Acquisitions
Dürr EDAG Aircraft Systems GmbH / Dürr Parata GmbH
Effective as of January 1, 2013, Dürr purchased the remaining 50% of Dürr EDAG Aircraft Systems GmbH with registered offices in Fulda, Germany. Following excution of the purchase agreement, the entity was renamed Dürr Parata GmbH and its registered offices transferred to Stuttgart, Germany. The company had been established for distribution of plants within the scope of common projects with EDAG, among other purposes.
First-time full consolidation of Dürr Parata GmbH was performed pursuant to IFRS 3 "Business Combinations" using the purchased goodwill method as the acquisition method of accounting. The profit or loss of the acquired entity was included in the consolidated financial statements as of the date of first-time consolidation.
The purchase price for the shares in Dürr Parata GmbH came to € 50 thousand in previous reporting periods and was paid in cash.
Offsetting the net assets acquired with Dürr Parata GmbH against the fair value of the shares of € 51 thousand has resulted in a negative difference of € 1 thousand, posted immediately as gain in other income. The net assets comprise cash and cash equivalents of € 62 thousand and other assets of € 4 thousand less short-term payables of € 14 thousand. The carrying amounts after acquisition correspond to fair value as of the date of first-time consolidation. The gross contractual value of the acquired other assets approximates their fair value. No contingent liabilities were recognized in the purchase accounting.
The earnings contributed by Dürr Parata GmbH as of the date of first-time consolidation until June 30, 2013, amount to € 0 thousand. A comparison of the statement of financial position and the statement of income was not performed as the change in the consolidated group was not material.
7. Change in equity
The proposed issue of bonus shares was approved at the annual general meeting of Dürr AG on April 26, 2013. The bonus shares were issued on May 27, 2013, doubling the total number of shares in Dürr AG from 17,300,520 to 34,601,040. A prerequisite for the issue of bonus shares was the doubling of subscribed capital from € 44,289 thousand to € 88,578 thousand by way of a capital increase from company funds. In the process, open reserves were converted into subscribed capital. The participation ratio of each shareholder has remained unchanged. The new shares are entitled to a dividend with retrospective effect as of January 1, 2013.
8. Other comprehensive income
The table below presents the changes in other comprehensive income and the associated tax effects from components of other comprehensive income, taking into account the changes in the item "Non-controlling interests".

The decrease in currency-related components of other comprehensive income is essentially attributable to the fluctuation of the euro against the Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Indian rupee and pound Sterling. The fluctuation of the euro against US dollar and the Chinese renminbi had the opposite effect.
- Other notes on financial instruments
In order to make the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities comparable, a fair value hierarchy has been designated in IFRSs with the following three levels:
- ► Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1)
- ► Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (level 2)
- ► Inputs that are not based on observable market data (level 3)
The financial instruments measured at fair value by Dürr break down as follows according to the fair value hierarchy:
| Fair value hierarchy | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| € k | June 30, 2013 |
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 |
| Assets at fair value – not through profit or loss | ||||
| Available-for-sale financial assets | 356 | 356 | - | - |
| Derivatives used for hedging | 913 | - | 913 | - |
| Assets at fair value – through profit or loss | ||||
| Derivatives not used for hedging | 69 | - | 69 | - |
| Derivatives used for hedging | 235 | - | 235 | - |
| Held-for-trading financial assets | 12,198 | 12,198 | - | - |
| Liabilities at fair value – not through profit or loss | ||||
| Obligations from put options | 33,645 | - | - | 33,645 |
| Derivatives used for hedging | 4,570 | - | 4,570 | - |
| Liabilities at fair value – through profit or loss | ||||
| Derivatives not used for hedging | 306 | - | 306 | - |
| Derivatives used for hedging | 98 | - | 98 | - |
| Contingent purchase price installments | 2,050 | - | - | 2,050 |
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy developed as follows:
| € k | 2013 |
|---|---|
| As of January 1 | 35,305 |
| Additions | - |
| Disposals | - |
| Change in fair value | 390 |
| As of June 30 | 35,695 |
The change in the fair values of the liabilities reported in level 3 has been recognized through profit or loss in net interest or directly in equity. No reclassifications were made between the fair value hierarchies in the first six months of fiscal year 2013.
Valuation techniques
The fair value of the derivative financial assets and liabilities classified at level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is based on exchange rates and yield curves observable daily. In addition, since January 1, 2013, both the counterparty and own default risk have been taken into account in connection with IFRS 13 for valuation purposes. Input factors for taking account of the counterparty default risk are Credit Default Swaps (CDS) observable on the markets of the credit institutions engaged in the relevant transactions. If no CDS exists for an individual credit institution, a synthetic CDS is derived from other observable market data (such as rating information, for instance). The counterparty risk is mitigated by means of diversification and a careful selection of counterparties. To calculate the own risk of default, information received by Dürr from credit institutions and insurers is resorted to so as to derive a synthetic CDS for Dürr.
The measurement of fair value of the put options and contingent purchase price installments classified at level 3 of the fair value hierarchy is based on internal corporate planning data. This includes the results expected for each individual company and expected sales figures for specific products on which the extent of the financial liability depends. An adjustment to the planning data is made if there are indications that warrant such a measure. If applicable, compounding effects resulting from an approaching maturity are also included in the valuation.
Sensitivity level 3
Assuming that the parameters (equity, cumulative earnings before income tax and free cash flow) were 10% higher (lower) on the soonest possible exercise date, the gain/loss on the put options for CPM S.p.A. and for Agramkow Fluid Systems A/S and their respective subsidiaries, classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, would have been € 2,874 thousand lower (higher).
The level 3 contingent purchase price obligation arising from the acquisition of Dürr Systems Wolfsburg GmbH would have been € 31 thousand higher (lower) in the event of deviation of the individual goals of +10% (-10%).
The contingent purchase price installments associated with the acquisition of Dürr Cyplan Ltd. classified to level 3 of the fair value hierarchy would be € 109 thousand higher if the terms of the contract were met one year earlier than expected. If the terms of the contract would be fulfilled one year later than expected, the contingent purchase price installment would be reduced by € 101 thousand.
The put option in connection with the acquisition of Thermea Energiesysteme GmbH would not change if the planned EBIT of the entity increases (falls) by 10% over the next three years. In such circumstances, the call option (currently € 0 thousand) would also remain unchanged as the proportionate business value of Thermea Energiesysteme GmbH does not exceed the capped exercise price on account of a 10% variation in EBIT.
Fair values of financial instruments carried at amortized cost
The table below shows the fair value of the financial assets and liabilities carried at cost or amortized cost. The fair value of financial instruments not carried at amortized cost approximates their carrying amount (with the exception of available-forsale financial assets measured at cost because their fair value cannot be determined reliably).

| Finance lease liabilities | 5,248 | 3,978 | 5,526 | 4,210 |
Cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, trade payables, sundry non-derivative financial liabilities and overdraft facilities mostly fall due within the short term. Consequently, their carrying amounts at the end of the reporting period approximate their fair value.
The fair value of the held-to-maturity investments is equal to the nominal value multiplied by the quoted price of the respective financial instrument.
It was not possible to determine the fair values of equity interests measured at cost of € 2,456 thousand because market prices were not available as no active markets exist. These are interests in four non-listed entities where the estimated future cash flows were not discounted because they could not be determined reliably. It was assumed that their fair value approximates their carrying amount. At present Dürr does not have any plans to sell these equity interests.
The fair value of non-current liabilities is based on the current interest rate for borrowing at similar terms and conditions with comparable due date and credit rating. With the exception of the bond and a Campus financing loan, the fair value of liabilities approximates the carrying amount. The fair value of the bond is equal to the nominal value multiplied by the quoted price at the end of the reporting period. As of June 30, 2013, the bond was quoted at € 108.60 which is equal to a market value of € 244,350 thousand. The fair value of the Campus loan is determined by discounting the cash flows from the fixed interest loan with the current market interest rate for a comparable mortgage.
Financial assets subject to a legally enforceable general netting or similar agreements
Forward exchange transactions entered into with banks are subject to contractual netting agreements which, in the event of insolvency of a credit institution, enable Dürr to net or off-set certain financial assets with certain financial liabilities.
Derivative financial assets subject to offsetting, enforceable master netting arrangements and similar agreements:

10. Segment reporting
The segment reporting was prepared according to IFRS 8 "Operating Segments". Based on the internal reporting and organizational structure of the Group, the data contained in the consolidated financial statements is presented by division. The presentation of segments provides details on the results of operations, net assets and financial position of individual activities.
The reporting is based on the divisions of the Group. As of June 30, 2013, the Dürr Group consisted of the Corporate Center and four divisions differentiated by product and service range, each with global responsibility for their products and results. The Corporate Center comprises Dürr AG, as the management holding company and Dürr IT Service GmbH, which performs IT services throughout the Group. The result and carrying amounts of Dürr GmbH & Co. Campus KG, which leased real estate to group entities at the location in Bietigheim-Bissingen until May 31, 2013 and has been part of the Corporate Center in the previous reporting period, have been allocated to the divisions. The prior-year figures were adjusted accordingly. Transactions between the divisions are carried out at arm's length.
Management monitors the EBIT (earnings before investment income, interest and income taxes) of its four divisions separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and evaluating operating segment performance. As the basis for segment reporting in accordance with IFRS 8 is the same as is used internally (management approach), the level of EBIT determined may differ from the consolidated financial statements. Group financing (including finance costs and finance income) and income taxes are managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.

Pursuant to IAS 23 "Borrowing Costs", borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalized as part of the cost of the asset. In Dürr's financial statements this means that finance costs that are attributable to customer-specific construction contracts in accordance with IAS 11 "Construction Contracts" are recognized in cost of sales. Since the EBIT is the basis used internally for management purposes without taking into account finance costs, borrowing costs are not included in segment profit or loss.
11. Related party transactions
Related parties comprise members of the Supervisory Board and the Board of Management.
Dr.-Ing. E. h. Heinz Dürr was chairman of the Supervisory Board of Dürr AG until April 26, 2013. The remuneration paid for this activity amounted to € 64 thousand (prior period: € 93 thousand). In the first six months of fiscal year 2013, expenses of € 67 thousand (prior period: € 111 thousand) were payable to Heinz Dürr GmbH, Berlin, of which Dr.-Ing. E. h. Heinz Dürr is general manager, for reimbursement of office and travel expenses relating to supervisory board activities and for cost reimbursements for the Dürr office in the German capital, Berlin. For his former activity as general manager, Dr.-Ing. E. h. Heinz Dürr received pension benefits from the pension commitment (of April 2, 1978, supplemented December 21, 1988) of € 120 thousand (prior period: € 120 thousand).
Some members of the Supervisory Board of Dürr AG hold high-ranking positions in other entities. Transactions between these entities and Dürr are carried out at arm's length.
Related parties also comprise joint ventures and associates of the Dürr Group.
In the first six months of fiscal year 2013, there were intercompany transactions between Dürr and its joint ventures and associates of € 988 thousand (prior period: € 1,011 thousand). As of June 30, 2013, outstanding receivables from joint ventures and associates totaled € 249 thousand (Dec. 31, 2012: € 162 thousand) and were current.
The Board of Management confirms that all the related party transactions described above were carried out at arm's length conditions.

13. Subsequent events
On June 6, 2013, an agreement was signed for the acquisition of assets of the insolvent environmental technology specialist Luft- und Thermotechnik Bayreuth GmbH. Following anti-trust clearance and the fulfilment of further suspensory conditions, the acquisition took place with effect from July 4, 2013. It enables Dürr to strengthen its market position in exhaust-air purification technology and broaden its technology portfolio in the Clean Technology Systems division. The preliminary purchase price is € 9,000 thousand. The final amount will depend on the earnings contributions from the existing contracts at the time of the acquisition. The purchase price mainly relates to technological know-how, brand name, customer base, a site including building as well as goodwill. The purchase price has not yet been assigned to the acquired assets. The assets were contributed to the previously non-consolidated Dürr EES GmbH based in Stuttgart, Germany. The company has changed its name to Luft- und Thermotechnik Bayreuth GmbH as a result of the acquisition and has been reported as a fully consolidated entity since July 4, 2013.
No further material events occurred between the reporting date and the publication of the interim report as of June 30, 2013.

This interim report is the English translation of the German original. The German version shall prevail.
This interim report includes forward-looking statements about future developments. As is the case for any business activity conducted in a global environment, such forward-looking statements are always subject to uncertainty. Our information is based on the conviction and assumptions of the Board of Management of Dürr AG, as developed from the information currently available. However, the following factors may affect the success of our strategic and operating measures: geopolitical risks, changes in general economic conditions (especially a prolonged recession), exchange rate fluctuations and changes in interest rates, new products launched by competitors, and a lack of customer acceptance for new Dürr products or services, including growing competitive pressure. Should any of these factors or other imponderable circumstances arise, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual results may differ from those projected. Dürr AG undertakes no obligation to provide continuous updates of forward-looking statements and information. Such statements and information are based upon the circumstances as of the date of their publication.
