findings. The complete annual report will be published on March 28, 2008.

Supervisory Board and Board of Directors will decide on a dividend for 2007
by end of March 2008.In 2008 the group will continue its growth path. Sales will increase from
37 million Euros (31.12.2007) to approximately 38 million Euros. Silicon
Sensor Group will focus on the completion of the new sensor fabrication
building in Berlin. Due to this one-time-effects caused by the construction
of the new sensor production site, and the time lag for orders in the
packaging business, the board of directors expect an EBIT, which is nearly
the same as in year 2007. To reach company´s goals in 2008, actions are
initiated to intesify sales and decrease costs. Starting with business year
2009 growth rate will increase further.
