annual result/Fiscal Year 2011

München (euro adhoc) - Munich-based Data Modul AG, the European
market leader in the field of display technology, ended 2011 with
substantial improvements in revenue and profit over 2010. This is
based also on the consequent implementation of the innovation-
and internationalization strategy with strengthened focus on display
solutions and embedded computer.

The revenues in 2011 increased by 18.3 % to 140.9 million euros
(2010: 119.1 million euros). The significant increase is
generated in both business segments. The export ratio reached
36.0 % (2010: 33.8 %). The EBIT increased by 53.0 % to 10.1 million
euros. The annual net income jumped 100 % to 7.6 million euros

1.11 euros). At the Annual Shareholders' Meeting on May 9, 2012, the
Executive Board and Supervisory Board will propose to distribute a
cash dividend of 0.60 euros.

*To be proposed at the Annual Shareholders' Meeting on May 09, 2012

We are convinced, that the future course of business will be
sustainable positive. To match the demands of our customers for
customer specific system solutions and value added, we increased our
research and development costs by 25 % compared to the previous year.
The main target course of our activities is further focusing on the
display and system business.

For the current year we have, due to the recently weaker economic
environment, a conservative planning and therefore expect only a
slight increase in revenues.
