DGAP-News: DATA MODUL AG / Key word(s): Quarter Results DATA MODUL AG with moderate start in the 1st quarter of 2013 as expected 15.05.2013 / 16:30 --------------------------------------------------------------------- - 1st quarter of 2013 adversely affected by delayed revenues - Revenues 33.4 million euros, - 6.7 % - EBIT 0.4 million euros (previous year: 2.1 million euros) - Further rise in order intake, order backlog at record level As mentioned in the press release on February 20, 2013, DATA MODUL's first quarter of 2013 was characterized by delays in customer call orders as a result of the uncertain economic environment. Accordingly, revenues declined 6.7 % to 33.4 million euros. The lack of contribution margin from the delayed call orders and the slight decline in margins due to increased competitive pressure resulted in a reduction in EBIT to 0.4 million euros (previous year: 2.1 million euros). The Systems business was particularly impacted by the delay in call orders. In recent years, the Systems business has experienced especially strong growth in the course of DATA MODUL's transition in the business model to a higher portion of value added through customer-specific solutions and proprietary products. In the first quarter of 2013, net income for the period amounted to 0.0 million euros (previous year: 1.5 million euros). On the positive side, order intake exceeded the very strong level of the previous year by 1.7 % and amounted to 46.6 million euros despite the difficult economic environment. This confirms DATA MODUL's successful business model. Consequently, the order backlog increased 20.7 % to 94.6 million euros.This marked a new record in the Company's history.

DATA MODUL expects customer uncertainty to dissipate in the course of the year however the precise timing of this is difficult to foresee. On the cost side, higher upfront investments are expected in the course of the year for the relocation of production, the warehouse, and logistics from Munich to Weikersheim, and the transformation of the business model. In addition, we will forge ahead with our internationalization. This may lead to a decline in profits in 2013 in comparison to the previous year. Therefore, fiscal year 2013 - as already stated on several other occasions - is a year of transition. Through these upfront investments, DATA MODUL is paving the way for a very successful future.
