Provisional figures show sales in the first half-year up 14% at EUR 13.3 million (previous year EUR 11.7 million). Sales in Q2 rose by 17% to EUR 6.9 million (previous year EUR 5.9 million). The principal factor behind these excellent sales developments was once again the gratifyingly strong upward trend in software licensing and consulting. Sales of software licenses were 12 % higher at EUR 2.8 million (previous year EUR 2.5 million), while turnover from consulting services expanded by 23% to stand at EUR 3.7 million (previous year EUR 3.0 million). Due in particular to the strong order intake in the second quarter, orders on hand for software licenses were up 32% at EUR 2.0 million (previous year EUR 1.5 million). The continuing stable development in the companys business is therefore secure. The key figures again show significant improvements, with EBIT coming in at EUR 2.7 million (previous year EUR 1.9 million), net profit at EUR 1.7 million (previous year EUR 1.2 million) and earnings per share at EUR 0.43 (previous year EUR 0.31). Against the backdrop of this excellent development in sales and the continuing stable order situation, over the year as a whole the company expects to clearly exceed its forecast for EBIT of over EUR 4 million (previous year EUR 3.7 million) and remain on course for further profitable growth. ATOSS Software AG will publish its full provisional figures for the first quarter of the year on July 25, 2008. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information and Explaination of the Issuer to this News: About ATOSS For more than 20 years ATOSS Software AG has specialized in flexible, demand-oriented workforce scheduling and deployment, offering integrated solutions which encompass consulting, software and professional services.
