Interim Group Management Report

1. Group revenues and earnings development

Currency-adjusted revenue growth of more than 10%

As a consequence of the – as expected – strong third quarter 2015 (€ 85.2m; prior year € 74.2m) revenues totaled € 245.8m and were € 29.6m (13.7%) higher than the prior year period (€ 216.2m). This amount includes positive currency eff ects of € 6.8m which will not continue to the same degree in Q4.

Revenue growth was achieved in all segments. EBIT almost doubled increasing to € 23.3m (prior year: € 11.8m) primarily due to higher revenues.

The order backlog being high since the beginning of the year continued to develop positively in the third quarter. At the end of the third quarter order backlog exceeded the prior year level. As revenues of the fourth quarter last year were very good, the Company is expecting that revenues in Q4 2015 will only be slightly higher than the same quarter of the prior year.

2. Economic report

2.1 General conditions and competitive conditions

In the important markets of Core Europe and North America, the investment conditions in our industry have improved compared to the situation described in the 2014 annual report. After negotiations of several major customer contracts were concluded, orders from these customers are expected to rise slightly as they are typically reduced prior to negotiations.

Otherwise, the general conditions were in line with the situation described in the 2014 Group Management Report. The same applies to the competitive conditions. There have been no signifi cant changes in technology, and none are foreseeable.

The positive revenue development was reported by all regions, but particularly by Europe and North America. In North America, revenues in US dollars amounted to USD 44.5m (prior year: USD 42.5 m). Group revenues in the quarter increased by 14.8% (Q3 2015: € 85.2m; Q3 2014: € 74.2m) compared to the prior year quarter – which was weaker than average – and were therefore, as expected, slightly higher than the 13.7% half-year growth rate.

* Revenue plus change in inventory minus cost of materials

Comparable to the half-year reporting 2015, the gross profi t margin remained at a level slightly above 60% and being slightly better than in the prior years.

Personnel expenses increased only moderately by € 2.2m to € 83.6m (prior year: € 81.4m), primarily due to currency eff ects included equaling roughly € 2.0m. As of the end of the year, the increase will become even less. This growth, which is not in proportion to the revenue growth, is attributable to, among other things, human resource measures implemented in 2014 and refl ects signifi cantly our improved effi ciency.

Other operating expenses (including other taxes) increased by € 3.1m to € 37.7m (prior year: € 34.6m). The main reasons for this

Disproportionately low personnel expenses development

development were currency eff ects and eff ects from the valuation of assets and liabilities held in foreign currency in the amount of € 2.2m, as well as higher expenses for temporary employees due to the increased revenues.

EBITDA rose by € 11.2m to € 30.5m (prior year: € 19.3m). As of Q3 2015, depreciation and amortization were 5% below the prior year value.

EBIT almost doubled

EBIT increased by 97.5% to € 23.3m (prior year: € 11.8m).

year period in Q2 2015, have improved again and reported a positive result. Due to the organizational consolidation of all European export markets, this segment will be reported separately for the last time in the annual report.

The negative results in North America in this quarter are a consequence of the changes caused by the loss of a major client eff ective July 1, 2015. In Q4, this eff ect will not continue because of expected higher revenues in the United States.

The exchange rate development between the US dollar and the euro had an impact on revenues, but it had no material eff ect on the operating income. The balance sheet date valuation used for the assets and liabilities reported in a foreign currency on the balance sheet had an infl uence on earnings of € –0.5 (other operating income: € 1.4m; other operating expenses: € 1.9m) (prior year: € 0.2m).

The consolidated net profi t after taxes increased to € 15.5m (prior year: € 7.6m). Earnings per share (diluted = undiluted) therefore rose to € 1.11 (prior year: € 0.55).

Based on the high order backlog and revenues, the net current assets (short-term trade receivables + inventories – short-term trade payables) rose signifi cantly. The receivables increased due to higher revenues primarily in the month of September.

Equity capital fell to € 70.9m as of September 30, 2015 (December 31, 2014: € 90.9m) due to the dividend payment and share buyback. As a result of income and expenses recognized directly in equity capital according to IFRS, the change in equity capital does not match up with the results for the period. The equity ratio decreased relative to the end of 2014 from 48.9% to 37.0%.

Despite a special dividend and the share buyback program, equity capital ratio solid at 37%

Net bank debt (long-term and short-term bank debt less bank credit balances) was € 8.9m (December 31, 2014: net liquidity of € 15.4m) because of the dividend payment and the share buyback. Net fi nance debt (net bank debt plus long-term and short-term fi nance leasing) increased to € 13.7m (December 31, 2014: net fi nancial liquidity: € 9.8m).

Other liabilities and provisions increased to € 94.1m because of higher prepayments received as well as higher tax liabilities (December 31, 2014: € 83.5m).

2.4 Financial Position

Cash infl ow from operating activities (net cash fl ow) increased only slightly to € 17.6m (prior year: € 17.0m). The increase in net cash fl ow was below the earnings development. This is attributable to the corporate tax payment made in connection with the dividend payment and the increase in working capital in Q3.

Cash outfl ow from investing activities increased slightly to € 3.7m (prior year: € 3.0m).

The free cash fl ow (net cash fl ow less cash outfl ow from investing activities) thereby equaled € 14.0m (prior year: € 14.0m).

Overall, cash and cash equivalents declined by € 24.3m to € – 8.9m compared to December 31, 2014, mostly due to the dividend payment and share buyback.

2.5 Employees

WashTec Group will invest more in employees Compared to September 30, 2014, the number of employees increased slightly by 5. Compared to December 31, 2014, the number of employees rose by 17 to 1,681. The employee number will increase slightly mid-term based on continued investments in HR development, sales and production.

3. Forecast, Opportunities and Risk Report

3.1 Forecast

After nine months currency-adjusted revenue growth equals 10.5%. This growth will not continue in Q4 due to the fact that the same quarter last year was strong. Based on this background, the Company is aiming for a revenue growth of about 10% (at least 7% after adjustments for currency eff ects) for the full year 2015.

The current EBIT margin as of the third quarter of 2015 is 9.5% and will only slightly increase for the full year.

In this respect, the following development is expected in the individual segments:

  • Core Europe: revenues and earning increasing signifi cantly and thus the forecast is being adjusted upward compared to the 2014 annual report
  • Eastern Europe: revenues and earnings increasing signifi cantly
  • North America: revenues and earnings increasing signifi cantly
  • Asia/Pacifi c: revenues and earnings increasing signifi cantly.

This forecast is uncertain. A key factor for the mid-term forecast will be how the business in Core Europe develops and to what extent the growth potential in the other markets will be used. Likewise, the exchange rate trend between the US dollar and the euro is almost impossible to forecast.

3.2 Opportunities and risks for group development

The 2014 annual report includes a description of the WashTec Group's risk management. There have been no material changes in the opportunities and risks described therein. As previously communicated and due to the completion of negotiations, only the risk of losing major customer contracts has been reduced. The Group is currently completely updating all risks and opportunities and will communicate them in the 2015 annual report. According to current information, the balance between opportunities and risks will continue to improve.

4. Miscellaneous information

4.1 Information about dealings with related companies and persons

No signifi cant transactions were conducted with related companies and persons during the reporting period.

4.2 Events after the end of the reporting period

No signifi cant events occurred after the end of the reporting period.

5. Share and investor relations

5.1 Share price development

High dividend yield at 13% (2014)

Despite a turbulent phase on the international stock markets, the WashTec share price performed favorably in the third quarter and closed at € 21.76 on September 30, 2015. This corresponds to a 66.1% share price increase compared to the € 13.10 closing price posted on the last trading day of the prior year (December 30, 2014). The WashTec share was thereby able to signifi cantly outperform the SDAX index, which rose by 13.7% in the same period. Moreover, a dividend of € 0.70 and a special dividend of € 0.95 was paid out.

WashTec is currently covered by Hauck & Aufhäuser, HSBC Trinkaus & Burkhardt and MM Warburg. Analysts see the share price target ranging from € 25.0 to € 28.00 (as of September 2015).

Based on notifi cations made pursuant to the WpHG

In the third quarter of 2015, WashTec AG received the following voting rights notifi cations in accordance with the Securities Trading Act: On July 24, 2015, Nmás1 Dinamia, S.A. (Madrid, Spain) notifi ed us that its voting share had climbed above the 3%, 5% and 10% thresholds on July 20, 2015 and equaled 10.80% on that date (previously: Nmás Asset Management, SGII, S.A. (Madrid, Spain: 14.9%). On September 17, 2015, Nmás1 Dinamia, S.A. (Madrid, Spain) informed us that its voting share had fallen below the 10% threshold on September 16, 2015 and equaled 9.78% on that date. In both cases, the voting share was attributed to EQMC Europe Development Capital Fund plc. (Dublin, Ireland).

On September 30, 2015, Kempen Oranje Participaties N.V. (Amsterdam, Netherlands) informed us that its voting share had climbed above the 3%, 5% and 10% thresholds on September 28, 2015 and equaled 10.73% on that date. The notifi cation was made because of a merger between Kempen European Participations N. V. and Kempen Oranje Participaties N. V.

As a result of the share buyback, WashTec AG reported that it was holding 4.25% of its own shares (treasury stock).

The management board also acquired shares of the Group

In September 2015, the Company received a notifi cation pursuant to the WpHG that its CEO, Dr. Volker Zimmermann, purchased 12,500 shares at a per share price of € 22.00. By virtue of this purchase, the operational management now has a vested stake in the Company, as the majority of the supervisory board members do.

In the fi rst three quarters of 2015, the management constantly cultivated the dialogue with shareholders and journalists as well as with the fi nancial community. WashTec took part in the Baader Investment Conference, and numerous investors paid a visit to Augsburg.

The fi nancial press has on numerous occasions reported favorably about WashTec's outlook.

5.3 Share buyback

In the third quarter, WashTec AG carried out a public buyback off er to reacquire its own outstanding shares.

In connection with the voluntary share buyback off er, which WashTec AG made in order to repurchase its own outstanding shares and which WashTec AG published on August 18, 2015 in the Federal Gazette [Bundesanzeiger] and on its website (www.washtec.de), a total of 5,871,173 shares were tendered to WashTec AG on or before the expiration of the acceptance deadline on September 9, 2015.

The WashTec AG off er related to a total of up to 550,000 shares of WashTec AG.

Upon factoring in both the preferential acceptance from shareholders who had submitted up to a maximum of 100 shares and an allotment rate of 9.2220%, WashTec AG thereby acquired a total of 549,988 shares (refl ecting approximately 3.93% of the registered share capital) pursuant to the share buyback off er and upon applying the recognized rules of commercial rounding-off .

After the completion of the buyback off er and taking into account the shares it already held, WashTec AG is now holding a total of 594,646 of its own shares.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of WashTec AG (IFRS) for the period January 1 to September 30, 2015

General Disclosures

1. Information on the Company

The ultimate parent company of the WashTec Group is WashTec AG, which is entered in the commercial register for the City of Augsburg under registration number HRB 81.

The Company's registered offi ce is located at Argonstrasse 7 in 86153 Augsburg, Germany.

The Company's shares are publicly traded.

The purpose of the WashTec Group also comprises the development, manufacture, sale and servicing of car wash products, as well as leasing and all services and fi nancing solutions that are related thereto and required in order to operate car wash equipment.

The consolidated fi nancial statements are prepared in euro. Amounts are rounded-off to the nearest euro or are shown in millions of euro (€m) or thousands of euro (€k).

2. Accounting and valuation policies

Principles in preparing the fi nancial statements

The accounting and valuation methods, which were applied when preparing the interim condensed consolidated fi nancial statements, comply with the methods that were used when preparing the consolidated fi nancial statements for the fi scal year ending December 31, 2014, except for the tax calculation. The tax calculation for condensed interim fi nancial statements is done by multiplying the result with the anticipated applicable annual tax rate.

The interim condensed consolidated fi nancial statements for the period January 1 through September 30, 2015 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, »Interim Financial Reporting«.

The interim condensed consolidated fi nancial statements do not include all explanations and information required for the fi nancial statements for the fi scal year and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated fi nancial statements for the period ending December 31, 2014.

Signifi cant accounting and valuation methods

In the reporting period, the Group applied the following new and revised IFRS Standards and Interpretations.

4. Equity capital

The subscribed capital of WashTec AG on September 30, 2015 equaled € 40,000k. This capital is divided into 13,976,970 no-par value bearer shares and has been fully paid-in.

On the basis of the resolution adopted at the annual general meeting held on May 15, 2013, the management board of Washtec AG, with the consent of the Company's supervisory board, decided to purchase up to 550,000 of its own shares (corresponding to a 3.94% share of the registered share capital) under a voluntary share buyback off er made to the general public. The term of the buyback off er began on August 19, 2015 and ended on September 9, 2015.

In the current fi scal year, the Company purchased 549,988 shares at a value of € 12,760k. The purchases thereby reduced the number of issued and outstanding shares to 13,382,324.

As of September 30, 2015 the average number of issued and outstanding shares is 13,904,813.

The annual general meeting of WashTec AG, which was held on May 13, 2015, resolved to use the non-appropriated distributable profi t of € 24,415,905.24, which was reported in the Company's annual fi nancial statements for fi scal year 2014, as follows: by paying a dividend in the amount of € 1.65 for each no-par value share entitled to receive a dividend (participating no-par shares), thereby totaling € 22,988,314.80, and by carrying forward the remaining non-appropriated distributable profi t of € 1,427,590.44 to a new account. The dividend of € 1.65 per participating no-par share includes a dividend in the amount of € 0.70 per participating no-par share as well as a special dividend payment in the amount of € 0.95 per participating no-par share.

the fi nancial instruments.

The fair value of the trade receivables and trade payables, of cash and cash equivalents, and of other fi nancial liabilities matches the relevant book (carrying) value because of the short maturities. The fair value of the liabilities under fi nancial leases and loans was calculated by discounting to present value of their expected future cash fl ows based on customary market yields.

These foreign exchange forwards are measured at fair value using the anticipated foreign exchange rates that are quoted on a regulated market. Interest rate swaps are measured at fair value using the anticipated interest rates under recognizable yield curves.

The fair value of the fi nancial instruments is classifi ed according to maturities as follows:
