Nuremberg, August 8, 2008 - In the course of the first six months of
its financial year 2008, TA Triumph-Adler AG increased Group sales to
more than EUR207 million. The share of second-quarter sales amounted
to almost EUR105 million - markedly above the EUR100.4 million
achieved in the second quarter of 2007. First-half pretax earnings of
more than EUR8 million were up by almost one third compared with the
EUR6.2 million generated in the first half of 2007. This, however,
includes the release of a provision in the amount of EUR2.4 million.
Net profit for the period will amount to almost EUR7 million
(following EUR5.0 million in the first six months of 2007). The
Management Board can not exclude the possibility that a marked
decline in macroeconomic factors could hinder the ability to reach
the objectives. The second quarter, however, reflects a renewed
positive trend. The Board, therefore, essentially maintains the
current targets for the full year: The Group is aiming for sales of
around EUR440 million for 2008, and pretax earnings of almost EUR20
million. In order to achieve these goals sales and earnings will have
to be increased markedly in the course of the second half of the
year. TA Triumph-Adler AG will publicize the complete interim
financial statements on Wednesday August 13, 2008.
