Bechtle AG: Revenue and EBT Rise Again in Q3

Neckarsulm, 23.10.2014 - Bechtle AG continued to grow profitably in the
third quarter of the current year. Preliminary figures show that revenue
generated from July to September reached EUR618 million, a 10% increase
compared to the previous year's EUR558.9 million. Earnings before taxes in
the third quarter are at around EUR29.5 million, up approx. 20% from the
previous year (EUR24.7 million). As was the case in the first two quarters
of the year, the increases in revenue and earnings were driven by continued
customer willingness to invest in the IT System House and IT E-commerce
segments, both in and outside of Germany. As expected, however, both
revenue and earnings developed at a more moderate pace than in the first
half-year 2014.

Bechtle AG will publish final figures in its Q3 interim report on 12
No-vember 2014.
