Winnweiler-Langmeil, Germany, May 15, 2013. MOBOTIX AG (ISIN DE0005218309)

announced its consolidated financial results (IFRS) for the second quarter
and the first half of the fiscal year 2012/13 (October 1, 2012 to March 31,
2013).
In the second quarter of the current fiscal year 2012/13 the MOBOTIX Group
raised its sales revenue by 9 percent year on year to EUR 21.3 million.

totaled EUR 2.7 million, while earnings per share came to EUR 0.21. The
export ratio was 79 percent. The high proportion of exports to countries
outside Europe (44 percent) underlines the increasingly international
dimension of the Company, creates further growth opportunities for the
future, and makes MOBOTIX less dependent on overall economic developments
in individual sales regions.
The first half of the current fiscal year saw sales revenue grow by 3
percent to EUR 41.4 million, while EBIT amounted to EUR 7.4 million. The
MOBOTIX Group's first-half EBIT margin stood at 17.9 percent, its profit
