Hanover, 29 April 2014 - SDAX-listed Delticom AG (German Securities Code
WKN 514680, ISIN DE0005146807, stock market symbol DEX), Europe's leading
Internet tyre retailer, is distributing a dividend of EUR 0.50 per share
for the 2013 financial year (previous year: EUR 1.90).
77.6 % of the share capital was present at the General Meeting of Europe's
leading Internet tyre retailer. Shareholders approved all the items on the
agenda with a large majority. Mr Rainer Binder was confirmed in his
supervisory board position. For the fiscal year 2013 the shareholders will
receive a dividend payment of EUR 0.50 per share. The remainder will be
used in the financial year to reduce companies' financial debt to banks
that were raised for the financing of the Tirendo acquisition.
In the first quarter, more than 200,000 new customers - an increase of 15 %
compared to Q1 13 - benefited from the comprehensive product and service
offering in the Delticom shops, among them ReifenDirekt.de and Tirendo.de.
"Thanks to rising temperatures and spring-like weather conditions, the one
or the other car driver already switched to summer tyres before Easter
holidays", commented Co-CEO Andreas Prüfer the start of the current
season, and adds: "Weather-dependent fluctuations are not unusual in the
tyre trade. Only over the coming months will it become clear whether the
replacement demand in Europe is showing first signs of a slight recovery.
Even if market and weather conditions do not turn out better than in the
previous year, we anticipate a revenues increase of 10 % for the current
financial year."
The full report for the first quarter 2014 will be published on 15 May 2014
within the "Investor Relations" section of the website www.delti.com.
