bmp AG: 2.3 mill. EUR Consolidated Profit in the First Half of 2008
Achieved

Berlin, 14.08.2008

bmp AG (ISIN DE0003304200) finished the first half year 2008 with a
turnover in the amount of 1.9 mill. EUR (previous year 8.6 mill. EUR). This
decline mirrors the decrease in exit activities during the first half year
period of 2008.

At the same time consolidated profits of 2.3 mill. EUR have been
accomplished per June 30th, 2008, based upon a pleasant surplus from
revaluation and the partial selling of shares of the K2 Internet S.A..
Earnings per share amounted to 0.13 EUR (previous year 0.22 EUR). Therewith
these are below the consolidated profits of the same period of the previous
year in the amount of 3.9 mill. EUR, which however comprised extraordinary
returns from the termination of the bmp Venture Tech fund.

The marketable securities and cash equivalents amounted to 13.0 mill. EUR
per June 30th, 2008 (previous year 12.1 mill. EUR).

The Assets under Management (AUM) experienced a slight increase altogether
from 77.9 mill. EUR at the end of the same previous year term to 80.3 mill.
EUR per June 30th, 2008. In doing so, the Private Equity Advisory business
division contributed 61.5 mill. EUR, which comes up to an increase by
approx. 10% compared to the previous year, and the Direct Investments
business division contributed 18.8 mill. EUR (previous year 22.0 mill.
EUR). At the same time the volume of the shareholdings directly held by bmp
AG was continued to be systematically reduced by 7.2 mill. EUR, while the
volume of investments of the subsidiaries bmp Media Investors and bmp Eco
Investors increased by approx. 4.0 mill. EUR.

All together, the management board continues to anticipate positive
consolidated results for the business year 2008.

The half-year report will be published www.bmp.com on August 29th, 2008.
