Ad-hoc Announcement of TRIPLAN AG pursuant to §15 Securities Trading Act

2005 half-year report

Bad Soden, 23.08.2005
TRIPLAN AG has presented its half-year report for 2005.

EBIT improved in the first half of 2005 as a result of further cost savings, by - 492 EUR, from - 818 TEUR in the same period the previous year to - 326 TEUR in the reporting period although total output fell by 10.1% to 10,913 TEUR (previous year 12,142 TEUR). In the first half year of 2005 the results for the period came to -384 TEUR (+358 TEUR) compared to -742 TEUR in the same period the previous year. Results per share likewise significantly improved to -0.06 EUR (previous year -0.11 EUR). Our equity ratio is 44.0%.

Because of the positive outlook for the second half of 2005 it is assumed that the TRIPLAN group could slightly improve its total output in this period. At today’s planning time this means a sales level lower than that of last year. EBIT and the results for the period will therefore be considerably more positive than in the previous year. Break-even is expected for 2006.
