UMS AG: 2010 earnings per share increase to EUR0.61 - Forecasts clearly
confirmed

Hamburg, 18.03.2011 - UMS United Medical Systems International AG (UMS/
ISIN DE0005493654) today released its preliminary figures for the 2010
fiscal year. Earnings per share improved significantly to EUR0.61 (2009:
EUR0.48) and is thus in the upper half of the forecast earnings range of
EUR0.55 to EUR0.65.

According to preliminary IFRS figures, the UMS Group's revenues increased
in fiscal 2010 to EUR38.9 million, from EUR35.7 million in the previous
year. This represents a 3% increase in revenues at constant exchange rates.
In the UMS Group's largest business segment, Urology, revenues grew by 6%.

According to preliminary figures, Group EBIT for 2010 increased by 5% at
constant exchange rates, to EUR12.8 million, as compared to EUR11.5 million
in the previous year. Consolidated net income for 2010 amounted to EUR10.0
million, of which EUR3.1 million was attributable to the Group's
shareholders (2009: EUR2.6 million). Earnings per share amounted to EUR0.61
and thus improved- at constant exchange rates- by approximately 20% over
the previous year.

UMS expects revenue growth to continue in fiscal year 2011 and thus expects
consolidated revenues between EUR40 million and EUR42 million. UMS expects
earnings per share to increase again in 2011, to EUR0.60 to EUR0.70.

UMS expects to publish the complete audited financial statements for fiscal
year 2010 on April 4, 2011.
