for the period from July 6, 2007 to March 31, 2008
Following a robust price performance in the fourth quarter of 2007, the ZhongDe share followed a general share price downturn at the beginning of FY 2008 due to the volatility of global markets in January. However, the Company showed a solid performance compared to its peer group and outperformed other stocks in this market segment.
In the subsequent period, the ZhongDe share performance stabilised and showed a steady lateral movement in line with the market. This was reinforced by the announcement that the Company signed general contracts for the Datong project, a further milestone in ZhongDe Group's development, along with the strong preliminary results for FY 2007 published in March.
Supported by a positive outlook for the rest of FY 2008, the ZhongDe share continues to move in line with the market, thus putting company shares in a solid position to profit from future market recovery.
At the National People's Congress on 11 March 2008, the Chinese government confirmed its commitment to environmental protection by granting the State Environmental Protection Administration (SEPA) new status as a ministry. With environmental protection emphasised as a fundamental policy crucial to the development of the PRC, this move is seen as a positive step in the Chinese government's continued efforts to create a cleaner environment.
As a result of environmental protection policies, Chinese government plans encouraging the building of incineration plants continue to gather momentum. The ZhongDe Group is in a prime position to benefit from the government's long term commitment to environmental protection, enabling the Company to build on the growing reputation of its incinerator business. This is reflected in the fact that the Company continues to handle an increasing number of enquiries relating to incineration projects.
The Chinese government has clearly reiterated its long term commitment to the development of new and renewable energy sources. This, together with a push to adhere to international environmental guidelines, has seen more than 180 cities and municipalities throughout China apply to the central government to approve infrastructures that will enable them to develop solid waste incineration with power generation. As demand for large incinerators and projects rapidly grows, ZhongDe Group is successfully steering the business towards large scale incineration projects, a move underscored by signing the first general contracts for the Datong waste disposal and electricity generation project.

Sales rose by 52% to ¤ 11.2 million in Q1 2008 (previous year: ¤ 7.4 million). Municipal waste incinerator sales represented 96% of the Company's total sales in Q1 2008 compared to 47% in Q1 2007. This increase is in line with the corporate strategy to allocate more resources to the development of the municipal incinerator segment. The overall margin improved at 69% in Q1 2008 versus 65% in Q1 2007. The slight increase is mainly due to a promotional discount offered to an old customer in Q1 2007 for a newly launched 300 ton incinerator, which affected the average margin of sales during that period.
As a result of the growth in municipal solid waste incinerator sales, gross profits increased from ¤ 4.8 million in Q1 2007 to ¤ 7.7 million in Q1 2008. Selling and distribution expenses saw an increase of 96% from k¤ 242 in Q1 2007 to k¤ 477 in Q1 2008. The increase in these expenses in Q1 2008 compared to the same period in the previous year reflects the growth in sales revenues as sales commission is paid, the higher salary costs incurred as the Company recruits new employees to expand its international sales and marketing areas, and the rise in travel and entertainment expenses associated with the increased level of activity.
Compared to Q1 2007, administrative expenses increased by 61% from k¤ 289 to k¤ 465 in Q1 2008. This increase was mainly caused by the additional costs generated in connection with ZhongDe Group's status as a listed company. Furthermore, the company has employed more administrative staff for the expansion of the Beijing plant and the preparation of BOT projects.
The Company's net cash position as at 31 March 2008 was ¤ 86.6 million compared to ¤ 83.8 million on 31 December 2007. The Company retained most of the funding from IPO proceeds and is planning to use these funds to establish the Beijing plant and various BOT projects starting in the second half of 2008.
In Q1 2008 the net profit increased from ¤ 4.1 million in Q1 2007 to ¤ 7.0 million in Q1 2008, an increase of 71% as a result of surging sales in the municipal waste incinerator segment.
The number of employees increased from 178 in Q1 2007 to 273 in Q1 2008. This reflects the additional recruitment undertaken to expand the sales and marketing team and project management staff in order to meet the demand within the expanding municipal waste sector.
Order intake and backlog saw sustained strong development compared to the same period in the previous year. Specifically, following the IPO, the company successfully built on the strength of its brand image in incineration technology and proven financial capabilities, which has allowed it to profit from the demand for municipal solid waste incinerators, particularly larger scale incinerators.
Orders continue to rise, particularly in the municipal incinerator segment. As at Q1 2008, the main increase in order intake was derived from six incinerators with an average daily capacity of 1,618 tons and a total contract value of ¤ 44 million.

Sales of medical waste incinerators declined during the period under review as part of a shift in the Company's focus to municipal solid waste incinerators. Gradual withdrawal from the medical waste incinerator segment is in keeping with the long term strategy of the Company. The Company anticipates market saturation in this segment in China as existing technology continues to absorb demand, reducing the expectation of long term strategic growth. Although market demand remains stable, the Company has no plans to grow its market share in this segment. As a result, Q1 2008 segment revenues were lower at k¤ 462 compared to ¤ 3.9 million in Q1 2007.
The Company witnessed substantial growth in municipal solid waste incinerator sales enhanced by a rise in demand in the market. As a result, the number of incinerators sold increased to four units compared to two units in the same period last year. Revenues in Q1 2008 rose by 208% to ¤ 10.7 million versus ¤ 3.5 million in Q1 2007. During the same period, gross profits increased from ¤ 1.8 million to ¤ 7.4 million, up 304%.

| Balance sheet total | 110,805 | 104,536 |
The balance sheet total on 31 March 2008 amounted to ¤ 110.8 million. Fixed assets of ¤ 3.6 million remained almost unchanged compared to FY 2007. Current assets rose by ¤ 6 million to ¤ 107 million mainly due to an increase in trade and other receivables as well as an increase of nearly ¤ 3 million in cash and cash equivalents. The latter amounts to ¤ 86.6 million representing approximately 81% of the current assets. The equity increased by ¤ 5.3 million to ¤ 104 million. Thus, the Company has a very strong equity ratio of approx. 94%.
The increase in working capital of 20% was derived from the rise in sales, along with the Company's accounts receivable policy of retaining 10% of receivables from customers for one year as a quality warranty.
The increase of inventories, particularly finished goods, by k¤ 504 (19%) and of trade receivables by k¤ 921 (7%) primarily relate to the expansion of the business.

Due to the investment activities in short term deposits, the first quarter of 2008 saw a negative free cash flow at k¤ 803. The cash flow from operating activities amounted to ¤ 4.7 million in the first quarter of 2008 (previous year: k¤ 965). Based on a pre tax profit of ¤ 6.9 million, in particular relating to the increase in inventories (k¤ 505), trade receivables (k¤ 990) and other receivables (¤ 1.8 million) the cash flow was reduced.
In the first quarter, investments amounted to ¤ 5.5 million and were mainly focused on short term cash investments (¤ 5.2 million). The remaining sum was comprised of expenditures for machinery and equipment in the Fujian and Beijing plants.
ZhongDe Group has completed negotiations to work in partnership with Nankai University to look into dioxin emission reduction. Both partners will establish teams tasked with researching the subject.
The Company has applied to the provincial personnel department to establish a postdoctorate position within the ZhongDe Group. Establishing such a position will play a key part in helping to attract more talent to the Company.
Other developments include: Japanese experts, employed by the Company and supported by skilled technicians, refining the design and scaling-up the development of the double-loop municipal waste incinerators, and the construction of a physics and chemistry lab going ahead as planned.
The strong increase in the company's sound reputation in this market segment has been instrumental in attracting well-qualified staff to the ZhongDe Group. The Company has steadily increased its headcount by recruiting new talent, resulting in 13 more employees as at 31 March 2008 than 31 December 2007. Some 12 skilled production workers, each with more than 10 years of relevant experience have joined, allowing the company to deliver high-quality products to its customers in a timely manner.
Government reforms have helped turn China into the world's fourth largest economy based on GDP. With industries across the board seeing a rise in productivity in 2007 and the first quarter of 2008, the Chinese economy continues to be buoyant.
The Chinese government is placing an emphasis on developing waste incineration that also has the ability to generate electricity and supply heat, along with ways to utilise landfill gas to generate electricity. Preferential tax policies for companies working on new energy resources and renewable energy will be introduced to actively encourage research and development in these areas. And corporate income tax credits for companies investing in energy conservation and environmental protection projects will also be created. The potential for the ZhongDe Group is enormous.
The Company's plans for long term development include strengthening the R&D division in order to: develop and support technology, recruit and train skilled, experienced staff, establish partnerships and collaborations with other leading institutions and develop competitive strengths. This will help to replace current products and finalise new designs according to international standards.
Understanding the challenges ahead enables the Company to be flexible enough to adapt to a rapidly changing business environment. Though the ZhongDe Group has yet to establish a solid brand in the Chinese market, it sees plenty of opportunities to become a major player in the waste incineration sector with a strategy focusing on larger scale incinerators such as BOT projects.
This strategy is already reaping rewards for the Company as it signed another large scale BOT project contract in April 2008 with the city of Xinjiang in Shanxi province. The site will have a waste disposal capacity of 100 tonnes and the city will pay a monthly waste disposal fee of RMB 70 per tonne, adjusted annually to inflation, with a concession period of 30 years. Xinjiang, a city with a population of 400,000, will take over the plant after the contracted operating time.

The interim consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as adopted by the EU at the balance sheet date, and the additional requirements of German commercial law pursuant to sec. 315a (1) of the German Commercial Code (HGB). The interim consolidated financial statements comply with all IFRSs that had to be adopted by the balance sheet date.
With regard to the preparation of the interim consolidated financial statements, in accordance with IAS 34 »Interim Financial Reporting«, the Management Board is required to make estimates and judgements which influence the application of accounting policies within the Company, and the reporting of assets and liabilities as well as income and expenses. Actual amounts can differ from these estimates.
The accounting policies applied by the ZhongDe Group in the interim consolidated financial statements generally correspond to the methods applied by ZhongDe Waste Technology AG in its consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2007. Further details are provided in the consolidated financial statements available on the Company's website: www.zhongdetech.com.
Income that may have been recorded during the reporting period for seasonal reasons, whether due to cyclical or occasional developments, is not cut off in the interim consolidated financial statements. Expenses that are incurred irregularly during the reporting period have been cut off in those cases where they would also be cut off at year-end.
The interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in euros.
A. Business segments
ZhongDe Group's operating businesses are organised into two main business segments: urban municipal waste incinerators and medical waste incinerators.
B. Geographical business
ZhongDe Group is principally engaged in the design and manufacture of various incinerators in the People's Republic of China (PRC), and all of its customers are based there. In addition, all identifiable assets of ZhongDe Group are principally located in the PRC. Therefore, no geographical segment analysis is presented.
Revenue and cost of sales are directly attributable to the segments. Operating expenses and income are allocated to the segments on a reasonable basis.
Inter-segment sales are eliminated on consolidation.
