bmp AG: negative results for the first quarter of 2009 in line with
expectations

Berlin, 19 May 2009

The private equity asset manager bmp AG (ISIN DE0003304200) today released
its figures for the first quarter of 2009.

As no sales of investments were concluded, no revenue was generated in the
first quarter of 2009 (previous year: EUR 0.04 million).

Furthermore, with EUR 0.2 million marginal income from revaluations was
posted (previous year: around EUR 2.6 million) and earnings were
significantly impacted by losses in the value of listed investments. The
Company thus closed the first quarter with a consolidated net loss of EUR
-1.2 million (previous year: consolidated net profit of EUR 1.1 million).

As at 31 March 2009, marketable securities and cash and cash equivalents
amounted to EUR 6.9 million (previous year: EUR 11.0 million).

In the period ended 31 March 2009, Assets under Management (AUM) in the
Direct Investments and Private Equity Advisory business segments increased
slightly from EUR 68.2 million to EUR 71.4 million, representing a rise of
5% compared to the first quarter of 2008.

Owing to the uncertainty on the market, it is currently not possible to
foresee whether companies in the investment portfolio can be sold under
suitable and profitable terms in 2009. For this reason, at present it is
not possible to assess whether bmp will generate positive earnings in 2009.

The quarterly report will be published at www.bmp.com on 29 May 2009.
