Bechtle AG: Bechtle Earnings Surge

Neckarsulm, 25.4.14 - Bechtle AG's preliminary figures show that the group
earned over EUR20 m before taxes in the first quarter of 2014, an increase
of approximately 45% over the previous year (EUR14.1 m). Revenue from
January to March rose about 14% compared to the previous year (EUR514.0 m),
reaching some EUR586 m. Driven by both business segments, this revenue
increase was spread throughout the group's German and foreign subsidiaries.
The surge in earnings was spurred mainly by domestic system houses.

The final figures will be available in Bechtle AG's interim report for the
first quarter, scheduled for publication on 14 May 2014.
