The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ad Hoc Disclosure Pursuant to § 15 WpHG from Adler Modemärkte AG Preliminary Figures for Financial Year 2013 - ADLER Exceeds Earnings Forecast Highlights for the 2013 financial year (preliminary, unaudited result): - Expected EBITDA EUR 42.9 million - Expected EBITDA margin 8.1% - Expected revenue for the year EUR 528.6 million - Expected like-for-like growth of 3.6% Haibach (near Aschaffenburg), 20 February 2014 - Based on preliminary and unaudited data, the Executive Board of Adler Modemärkte AG expects revenue to increase by approximately 4.4% from EUR 506.1 million to approximately EUR 528.6 million. The recorded growth results largely from existing stores, which translates into a like-for-like growth of 3.6%. Due to a non-recurring effect of approximately EUR 3.8 million resulting from an increase in the redemption of discounts granted to participants in the customer loyalty card programme, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased by approximately 20.5% from EUR 35.5 million to approximately EUR 42.9 million. However, even absent this non-recurring effect, EBITDA would have amounted to approximately EUR 39.1 million, representing a considerable increase of approximately 10.1% and an EBITDA margin of 7.5%. The final and audited figures for financial year 2013 will be announced at the presentation of the annual financial statements on 20 March 2013.
