msg life publishes provisional figures for 2014

Turnover and results fully in line with expectations - planned figures for
2015 forecast turnover of 105.0 million euros and EBITDA of 8.0 million
euros

(Leinfelden-Echterdingen, 2 April 2015) - msg life ag (ISIN DE0005130108)
published its provisional figures for the 2014 financial year today. The
report reveals that the company generated aggregate turnover of 104.3
million euros (2013: 131.3 million euros) and earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA) of 11.4 million euros (2013:
-1.6 million euros). This EBITDA figure contains a seven-figure
non-recurring effect from the sale of the banking segment.

This means that both turnover and EBITDA are entirely in line with the
previous forecast - although neither figure can be compared with the
corresponding period last year. This is because the reporting period last
year still included the now-discontinued Banking segment and the
consolidation of the participating interest in plenum AG, which in the
meantime has also been disposed of. All of the figures are provisional and
have not undergone a final check by the auditor. The detailed final audited
results of the 2014 financial year will be published as part of the
consolidated financial statements on 28 April 2015.

Thanks to the company's corporate name change in October 2014, the sale of
the banking subsidiary and the disposal of the former participating
interests in plenum AG and B+S Banksysteme Aktiengesellschaft, msg life ag
has completed the most important previously outstanding measures for the
msg life Group's strategic realignment in the course of the 2014 financial
year.

Furthermore, the provisional figures for 2014 underline that the company
has successfully completed its economic turnaround. This is also reflected
in the planned figures for the 2015 financial year, which msg life ag also
released today: the company expects its aggregate turnover to increase -
compared to 2014 - to 105.0 million euros and a purely operative EBITDA of
approximately 8.0 million euros.
