Expansion of BEKO HOLDING AG’s strategic stake

Bad Soden, 26 September 2006
TRIPLAN AG (WKN 749930), Bad Soden, an engineering services provider that designs, optimises and manages complex plants and a provider of user-oriented software solutions in plant construction and building technology, announces an increase in BEKO HOLDING AG’s share capital stake.

The implementation of TRIPLAN’s strategic goals of growth in future-oriented markets and specialised engineering services is supported by the build-up announced today in BEKO HOLDING AG’s stake. The structure of both groups of companies in the fields of engineering and IT and their market listing forms the basis of a unique future perspective and sets them apart from other companies in the sector.

Both companies are successfully positioned in their markets. The TRIPLAN management expects extra benefits for both companies from the expansion of the sector spectrum and an enhanced regional presence. TRIPLAN focuses on the areas of chemicals, petrochemicals, refinery, alternative energies - pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, life science, food – and on-site customer advice and operational management.

As a holding company with core engineering and IT expertise, BEKO GOLDING AG offers its subsidiaries, on the basis of its holdings, the chance to generate operational synergies. BEKO sees TRIPLAN AG helping to provide considerable engineering potential with special focus on the expansion of eastern markets.
