Karlsruhe/Germany, July 27, 2006 --- ComBOTS AG (FSE: CMBT) today
announced its half year results for fiscal 2006. H1/06 and
especially the second quarter were characterized by intensive
product development, setup of the organisation and infrastructure,
successful presentation of its new personal digital communication
service on July 13, and the start of the step-by-step market
rollout.

As part of investments across all functional areas, second quarter
research and development expenses increased to EUR 8.9 million
(Q1/06: EUR 6.3 million). The efforts focused on the completion of
the ComBOTS communication service launched on schedule as well as on
the built-up of an extremely powerful data center in order to
provide users with an entirely new communication experience.

The company was able to hire 54 new employees during the second
quarter, thus staffing most of the open positions planned for 2006.
This was a prerequisite in order to provide a solid and scalable
organization, which is prepared for worldwide success.
Consequently, the headcount increased to 153 by June 30, 2006.

Based on the investments into the new service as well as into the
organization and infrastructure, the consolidated pre-tax result
(EBT) in Q2/06 summed up to EUR -8.3 million (Q1/06: EUR -6.8
million). The EBT for H1/06 came out at EUR -15.1 million resulting
in a net loss for the period of EUR -13.9 million. As of June 30,
2006, the net liquid assets of ComBOTS AG of EUR 450 million
(Year-end 2005: EUR 439 million) break down into EUR 190 million in
cash and EUR 260 million for the 9.31 percent stake in United
Internet AG. The increased value of the United Internet investment
since the beginning of the fiscal year, amounting to EUR 72 million,
has not been recognized as income in the profit and loss statement.

Additional information:
Following the product premiere on July 13, the step-by-step market launch of
the ComBOTS communication service started. Thousands of initial users are now
being invited to test the product. Starting on the opening day of the
International Consumer Electronics Show (IFA) in Berlin, from September 1,
ComBOTS will be available to the general public at www.combots.com.
Trading still close to the value of its liquid assets, the management of ComBOTS
is convinced, that the current share price does not reflect the potential of the
company, i.e. the product, the three years of heavy investments, the
intellectual property, the worldwide markets, the experience of the team, the
fast distribution concept and the attractive business model.
For further information please visit www.combots.com where the detailed
quarterly and half year report is available, too, including a letter to the
shareholders from Chairman and Founder Michael Greve.
