Fresenius Medical Care Reports First Quarter 2011 Results and Raises
Outlook for 2011

Net revenue of Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA increased by 5% to
$3,036 million (+5% at constant currency) in the first quarter of 2011.
Operating income (EBIT) increased by 5% to $445 million. Net income for the
first quarter of 2011 was $221 million, an increase of 5%.

Based on the strong financial results in the first quarter of 2011 and the
elimination of the so-called 'transition adjustment' imposed on dialysis
facilities as part of the new Medicare end-stage renal disease prospective
payment system in the United States, the company raises its outlook for the
full year 2011.

The company now expects to achieve revenue of more than $13 billion.
Previously, the company expected revenue to grow to between $12.8 billion
and $13.0 billion.

Net income attributable to Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA is now
expected to be between $1.070 billion to $1.090 billion in 2011.
Previously, the company expected net income to be between $1.035 billion
and $1.055 billion.

For 2011, the company still expects to spend around 5% of revenue on
capital expenditures and approximately $1.2 billion on acquisitions. The
debt/EBITDA ratio is expected to be below or equal to 2.8 by the end of
2011, likewise unchanged from the previous guidance.
