PSI Group Data as per 30 June 2007 at a Glance (IFRS)

Interim Management Report

Business Development

Earnings

The PSI Group had sales revenues of 60.5 million euros (first six months of 2006: 56.5 million euros) in the first six months of 2007. The EBIT increased to 1.8 million euros (first six months of 2006: $-0.4$ million euros), the Group profit to 0.7 million euros (first six months of $2006: -1.0$ million euros). There were 72 million euros (first six months of 2006: 72 million euros) in new orders in the first six months, once again above revenues, so that the volume of orders on 30 June 2007 had continued to increase to 85 million euros (30 June 2006: 83 million euros).

The Energy Management segment (Electricity, Gas, Oil, Heat, Water) had sales revenues of 26.3 million euros (first six months of 2006: 25.9 million euros) in the first six months. The EBIT improved to 1.3 million euros (first six months of 2006: 1.2 million euros). This contains expenses for the new energy control system for high and supergrid voltage networks and the integration of the product portfolio for gas and electricity trading.

In the Production Management segment (Industry, Logistics), sales revenues in the first six months increased to 25.1 million euros (first six months of 2006: 22.9 million euros). The EBIT improved to 0.5 million euros (first six months of 2006: -0.04 million euros) despite investments for the expansion of the international business.

Infrastructure Management (Traffic, Security, Telecommunications) increased sales revenues in the first six months by 19% to 9.2 million euros (first six months of 2006: 7.7 million euros), the EBIT which had been clearly negative in the previous year improved to 0.1 million euros (first six months of $2006: -1.3$ million euros). In this segment an unusual percentage of the sales revenues were attained in the first quarter, due to the fact that the relevant hardware sales were contained here. In the second quarter, important new contracts were won in the traffic segment, establishing the conditions for further growth in that segment.

Financial Position

As a result of the continued expansion of the working capital (export, projects) liquid funds per 30 June 2007 decreased to 12.1 million euros (30 June 2006: 13.8 million euros).

Assets

Compared to 31 December 2006, there have not been any material changes in the Group's assets.

Personnel Development

The number of employees increased slightly to 1,058 (30 June 2006: 1,049), with the expansions primarily in the sites in China and Poland.

PSI-Shares

The PSI stock developed very positively in the $2nd$ quarter with a final price of 5.54, 24% above the final 2006 price of 4.46. In the same period, the Prime Software Index, which includes all the software stocks in the Prime Standard of the German Stock Exchange, had a decrease of 0.2%.

Special Events in the First Six Months

Effective 30 June 2007 the PSI Group has sold its partial business operation RISER (European registration service) to a group of investors.

Special Events since the Balance Sheet Day

On 5 July 2007, the PSI AG sold its subsidiary European IT Consultancy EITCO GmbH to a German investor group and therefore completed its concentration on the core business.

Risk Report

The estimate of the corporate risk has not changed since the Annual Report for 31 December 2006.

Outlook

For the second half of the year the management expects a continuation of the positive trend and important export orders in the core fields of business, Energy and Heavy Industry.

Notes on the consolidated financial statements as of 30 June 2007

The Company

1. Business Activities and Legal Background

The business activities of PSI AG and its subsidiaries relate to the development and sale of software systems and products fulfilling the specific needs and requirements of its customers, particularly in the following industries and service lines: utilities, manufacturing, logistics, telecommunications, safety, transport and government authorities. In addition, the Group provides services of all kinds in the field of data processing, sells electronic devices and operates data processing systems. The PSI Group is divided into the three core business segments energy management, production management and infrastructure management.

The Company is exposed to a wide range of risks that are similar to other companies active in the dynamic technology sector. Major risks for the development of the PSI Group lie in the success with which it markets its software systems and products, competition from larger companies, the ability to generate sufficient cash flows for future business development as well as in individual risks regarding the integration of subsidiaries, organizational changes and the cooperation with strategic partners.

Main customers are utilities and manufacturing companies in Germany, Europe and Asia. Main locations with business activities are located in Berlin, Aschaffenburg, Barsinghausen, Essen, Dortmund, Duesseldorf, Karlsruhe, Hamburg, Munich and Stuttgart. The Company is listed in the Prime Standard segment of the Frankfurt stock exchange.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2007 to 30 June 2007 were released for publication by a decision of the management on 27 July 2007.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from 1 January 2007 to 30 June 2007 were produced in compliance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all the data and notes prescribed for the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for 31 December 2006.

2. Accounting and Valuation Principles

With regard to the principles of accounting and valuation and especially the application of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) see the group consolidated financial statements for the financial year 2006.

PSI AG applied the new standards IFRS 7 and IFRS 8 for the first time in the first quarter of 2007. No additional information resulted for the quarterly financial statements in connection with the first application of IFRS 7. PSI AG assumes that, for the end of the year, extended information on the financial instruments and financial debt will be included in the consolidated notes.

In the framework of the initial application of IFRS 8, PSI AG adapted the segment reporting. This also took into account the new strategic orientation of the individual operative areas of the PSI Group. For purposes of comparison with the previous year, an adaptation to the newly structured segments was also performed. Within the context of the new business segments, the restructuring was examined to determine if the new classification of the operative areas would result in an adjustment of assets. This examination determined that there was no adjustment of the assets shown in the operative areas.

Seasonal Influences on the Business Activities $3.$

Seasonal effects resulted in the PSI Group operations with regards to the receipt of maintenance revenues in the first quarter of the financial year (deferment of the influences on the result of corresponding incoming payments throughout the year) and significantly greater demand and project accounting in the fourth quarter of the financial year.

Changes in the Consolidation Group $4.$

The PSI Business Technology for Industries GmbH was merged into PSI Information Management GmbH on 20 April 2007 and renamed PSI Business Technology for Industries GmbH.

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts

Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts arise when revenues have been recorded but the amounts cannot be billed under the terms of the contracts. Such amounts are recoverable from customers upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units or completion of the contract. Costs and estimated earnings contain directly allocable costs (labor cost and cost of services provided by third parties) as well as the appropriate portion of overheads including pro rata administrative expenses.

Segment Reporting

The PSI AG segment reporting was adapted in the course of the initial application of the IFRS 8 and in the context of the restructured strategic orientation of the PSI Group, and now occurs on a basis which deviates from the consolidated financial statements of 31 December 2006. The allocation to segments has changed as follows:

Segments in the Consolidated Financial Statements for 31 December 2006:

  • Network Management: Intelligent systems for controlling and monitoring complex $\bullet$ networks for energy supply, mobile telephones and the control of public transportation systems.
  • Production Management: Software products and individual solutions for production planning, special tasks in production control and efficient logistics. Focuses are the optimisation of the use of resources and the increase of quality and profitability.
  • Information Management: IT solutions for enhanced community and customer relations by providing secure and efficient support for the business processes of public authorities and service providers.

Segments after the Restructuring:

  • Energy Management: Intelligent solutions for energy suppliers from the electricity, gas, oil and water markets. Focal points are reliable and economically sound solutions for the network management and trade and sales management in the liberalised energy market.
  • Production Management: Software products and individual solutions for production planning, special tasks in production control and efficient logistics. Focuses are the optimisation of the use of resources and the increase of quality and profitability.

Infrastructure Management: High-availability control system solutions designed for $\bullet$ monitoring and economically sound operation of infrastructures in the telecommunications, transportation, public safety, environmental protection and disaster prevention areas.

In the course of the reallocation of the segments, individual operative areas were assigned to the segments in accordance with their strategic orientation. The following changes from the former segment allocation resulted:

  • The activities in the fields of telecommunication and transport were taken out of Network Management and assigned to the segments Production Management (transport logistics from the transport business) and Infrastructure Management (telecommunications and other activities of the transport business). The segment was renamed Energy Management.
  • The former segment Production Management was assigned the activities transport logistics and electronic registration information.
  • The activities in the area of electronic registration information were taken out of Information Management and assigned to the segment Production Management. Furthermore, the activities in the field of telecommunications and the activities in the field of transport (without transport logistics) were also assigned to the segment. The segment was renamed Infrastructure Management.

The management board of PSI AG assumes that the newly structured segment reporting will, along with the new strategic orientation of the PSI Group, allow for an improved insight into the assets, finances and earnings situation of the Group.

Responsibility Statement

To the best of our knowledge, the interim consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the group, and the interim management report of the group includes a fair review of the group's development and performance of its position, together with a description of the principal opportunities and risks associated with the expected development of the group in the remaining months of the financial year, in accordance with German proper accounting principles of interim consolidated reporting.
