Company Information/Preliminary revenues

Subtitle: - Preliminary revenues in the first quarter 2010 EUR 74
million (+45%) - +50% revenue growth in E-Commerce division

Hanover (euro adhoc) - Hanover, 20 April 2010 - Delticom AG (German
Securities Code (WKN) 514680, ISIN DE0005146807, stock exchange
symbol DEX), Europe's leading online tyre retailer, has published
preliminary figures for the first quarter of 2010. Revenues have
increased by approximately 45% to EUR 74 million, compared with EUR
51.0 million for the same period in the previous year. E-Commerce
revenues for the first quarter totalled EUR 70 million (Q109: EUR
46.7 million, up 50%).

Traditionally, the first three months of the year are the weakest
quarter in the tyre trade. The cold and snowy winter extended until
well into the quarter just ended. This provided Delticom with
continued good sales opportunities for winter tyres at the beginning
of the year. The company is also highly satisfied with the onset of
this year´s summer tyre business. With the rising temperatures and
spring-like weather conditions in March, many drivers across Europe
have already switched to summer tyres in the first quarter. Frank
Schuhardt, CFO: "For both winter and summer tyres our revenues in the
first quarter markedly exceed our expectations."

In the meantime, the majority of economic experts hold the opinion
that European consumers have been less impacted by the effects of the
recession than originally feared. Moreover, Delticom is benefiting
from the rising trend towards E-Commerce. According to a current
Forsa survey of German drivers commissioned by Delticom AG, some 40%
of the respondents in the age bracket between 18 and 39 years could
well envisage buying their tyres on the Internet in future.

The full report for the first quarter of 2010 will be published by
Delticom AG on 10 May 2010 on its website www.delti.com in the
section entitled "Investor Relations".
