Despite general economic trends, business in the fourth quarter of 2008
remained particularly strong. In fact, during this period alone, Integralis
generated EBIT of EUR 3.1 million, more than half the amount achieved in
the
entire previous year.
Main figures at a glance: Revenues by region<pre>
Revenues in M EUR 2008 2007 Change (%)
United Kingdom 68.1 66.1 3.0

UA Emirates 6.2 4.6 35.1
Total 158.3 158.3 6.7</pre>
With revenues up 6.7%, Integralis achieved solid growth. In absolute terms,
the largest top-line contribution was provided by the UK, followed by
Germany/Austria/Switzerland, which grew substantially over the previous
year. Acquired one year earlier, ProtechT, which is based in the
high-growth UA Emirates region, reported the greatest relative growth in
revenues.
Main figures at a glance: EBIT by region<pre>
EBIT in M EUR 2008 2007 Change (%)
United Kingdom 2.0 2.7 -26.0

Not allocated 0.9 -1.5 n.a.
Total 6.0 5.0 20.5</pre>
For the first time, Germany/Austria/Switzerland made the greatest
contribution to consolidated earnings. EBIT from the UK was down primarily
as a result of the weak pound. As with revenues, the UA Emirates proved to
be the most dynamic region for Integralis.

Technology sales 85.3 50.5 83.0 52.4 2.7

All defined business segments expanded in the year under review. On an
encouraging note, the proportion of recurring revenues (Support Services
and Managed Security Services) grew at a substantially greater rate than
non-recurring revenues.
'The current economic conditions are helping to speed up the transformation
process which we are seeking in favour of a greater share of revenues from
IT services. As a straight IT security specialist, we help our customers
cut their costs and concentrate on their core skills,' says CEO Georg Magg,
commenting on the strong growth in these high-margin segments.
'With total order volumes reaching a new record at the end of the year, we
are additionally able to react from a position of relative strength.'
