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

Placing of the convertible bond ended
Quarterly report for the first quarter of 2005

Bad Soden, 15.06.2005

The management board of TRIPLAN AG (DE0007499303) has decided to end the placing of the convertible bond. The issue of up to 2,600 TEUR, which was managed by VEM Aktienbank AG, was only lightly subscribed. The subscription volume was 300 TEUR and was more than 50% raised by a member of the management board.

With the ending of the convertible bond issue the management board of TRIPLAN AG decided on other measures. The TRIPLAN group aims to continue optimising the organisational structure and carry out additional savings measures to reduce the break-even threshold even further.

TRIPLAN AG has presented its first quarter report for 2005. Total output was reduced by 15.2% to 5,345 TEUR (previous year 6,300 TEUR). Despite the drop in total output EBIT improved in the first quarter of 2005 because of a strict cost management from -219 TEUR in the previous quarter by 61 TEUR to -158 TEUR in the reporting period. In the first quarter of 2005 earnings for the period came to -187 TEUR (+47 TEUR) compared to -234 TEUR in the same period the previous year. Earnings per share likewise improved slightly to - 0.03 EUR compared to - 0.04 EUR in 1Q 2004. The equity ratio was 46.7%.
