6-month report

23.12.2008

In the first half of the current financial year, sales at feratel
media technologies increased by eight percent over the same period of
the previous year. The Austrian company, which is listed on the
Vienna Stock Exchange and has its headquarters in Innsbruck, reports
sales totaling TEUR 9,493.3 (compared with TEUR 8,788.3).

For the first half of the business year, feratel announced EBITDA at
minus TEUR 432.5 and, after depreciation totaling EUR 1.7 million,
EBIT (operating result) at minus TEUR 2,101.2 (compared with minus
TEUR 2,048.8). Earnings before taxes (EBT) stood at TEUR minus
2,155.8 after TEUR minus 2,170.1 in the same period of the previous
year.

The company's results traditionally have a strong seasonal bias.
Sales in the Telecommunications Division, for example, are
concentrated in the second half of the financial year, while
overheads are distributed equally over the full twelve-month period.
And in a number of major markets the period from May to October, i.e.
the first half of the business year, accounts for a mere five percent
of income from advertising and related expenditures, while the third
and fourth quarters generate the remaining 95 percent

feratel is a leading international developer and provider of tourism
information systems. In the period under report, the company was
again successful in all three divisions. Further additions were made
to feratel's Europe-wide network of camera locations
(Telecommunications), with new sites in Austria, Germany, Italy,
Switzerland and Slovakia. Demand remained buoyant for the company's
outdoor information facilities (Information and Reservation Systems),
with a total of thirty terminals delivered in the first half of the
year to Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, the Netherlands
and Slovakia. And the positive developments in the Media Division
include the fact that, following the August addition of feratel WebTV
to the company's product portfolio, two channels were implemented in
the second quarter already, for Ski amadé and Sölden. Moreover, the
company managed to move onto the Norwegian market with its trail
marker system thanks to an order placed by the famous winter resort
Hemsedal.

Outlook

Given today's general mood of uncertainty with regard to future
economic developments and fears of a global recession, it is an open
question whether and to what extent capital spending will be curbed
in both the tourism and advertising industries, with consequences for
feratel's business activities in the medium term. "At times of crisis
especially, the quality of products and services becomes even more
significant. With our product portfolio, we at feratel media
technologies AG are strongly positioned on a broad base. We are
present in a large number of countries and with a wide range of
products and services. We must therefore wait and see to what degree
the current economic situation will impact capital spending in the
relevant industries," says CEO Dr. Markus Schröcksnadel.
