itelligence AG presents preliminary figures for Q1 2009

Revenue and earnings growth despite difficult environment
Revenues up 12.7% to MEUR 54.0
EBIT rises 31.3% year-on-year to MEUR 2.1 
Orders on hand increase by 11.2% year-on-year to MEUR 166.2

Bielefeld, April 23, 2009 - itelligence AG has made a largely satisfactory
start to the financial year 2009, recording revenue growth of 12.7% from
MEUR 47.9 in the first quarter of the previous year to MEUR 54.0 in Q1 2009
despite the weak macroeconomic environment. Orders on hand increased by
MEUR 16.8 year-on-year to MEUR 166.2 at the end of the first quarter 2009
(Q1 2008: MEUR 149.4), thereby approaching the high level recorded at
year-end 2008 (MEUR 168.5).

EBIT also improved significantly in the first quarter of 2009 compared with
the same period of the previous year, rising by 31.3% to MEUR 2.1 (Q1 2008:
MEUR 1.6). The EBIT margin increased from 3.3% in the first quarter of 2008
to 3.8% in the period under review.

As the global economic outlook remains extremely uncertain, itelligence has
opted currently not to issue concrete revenue and earnings forecasts for
2009 as a whole.

Further figures and details can be found in the Quarterly Report 1/2009,
which will be published on April 28, 2009.
