adesso AG: Sales and earnings up year-on-year in the first quarter of 2013

Interim announcement of adesso AG in accordance with Section 37 of the Securities Trade Act (WpHG)

adesso AG closed the first quarter of 2013 with sales increase to EUR 32.3 million and improved EBITDA of EUR 1.5 million, thereby confirming the preliminary figures released in the ad hoc dated 13 May 2013. Lower license sales, a 5 % drop in working days as well as an unusually high sickness rate in January and February due to the wave of influenza in Germany all prevented EBITDA from rising even higher. However, the figures generated are on target when taking into account the distribution of working days in 2013 and the typical seasonality of license sales. The company maintains its own forecasts for full-year 2013.
