Q3/2010: YOC-Group is developing positively - Significant increase in
EBITDA in a year-on-year comparison

Berlin, 10th November 2010 - Compared to the previous year, the YOC Group
saw an increase in sales and result as of 30th September 2010. YOC's sales
amounts to EUR 22.7 million by the end of the third quarter, which is an
increase of 22% in a year-on-year comparison (30th September 2009: EUR 18.5
million). EBITDA is EUR 2.1 million and has thus increased by 136% compared
to the previous year (30th September 2010: EUR 0.9 million). The strategic
focus in the third quarter has been dedicated to the development and
improvement of YOC's innovative product portfolio.

The main achievements for the third quarter include the development and
successful launch of the YOC Ad Plus, an innovative advertising format that
gives a new dimension to mobile advertising. The YOC Ad Plus is Europe's
first rich media advertising format that was developed especially for the
use within applications. This product integrates e.g. videos, picture
galleries and 360 views and can be configured for all operating systems.
The YOC Ad Plus was sold to many customers in Europe, such as Wilkinson,
Vodafone and BlackBerry.

In the third quarter of 2010, the YOC Group did not only develop the YOC Ad
Plus but also added features to the Ad Server, which is the world's leading
technology to optimise the delivery of mobile advertising material.
Publishers in particular have benefited from various new tools provided by
the launch of version 3.2 at the start of the current quarter. These tools
contribute to a better overall performance.

'We will keep focusing on the continuous development of our product
portfolio based on our high-performance technology platform', says Dirk
Kraus, CEO of the YOC Group. 'Our aim is to use innovative products, such
as the YOC Ad plus, to expand our lead in the market and thus to
continuously develop the market.'

Having this goal in mind, the Group will continue to benefit from strong
market growth in the future. The growing popularity of internet-ready
mobile devices, faster transfer rates due to the rising use of UMTS, the
launch of new mobile operating systems and end-devices are still the most
important market drivers.

In the third quarter of the current financial year, the YOC Group was again
able to add new renowned companies and brands to its broad customer
portfolio. These new customers include Central, ADAC, Procter & Gamble,
Baur Versand, Datev, Público, Waitrose or Schlecker. YOC also succeeded in
extending existing relations with customers such as Deutsche Post,
wetter.com, Coca-Cola and Kraft Foods.
