In the first half of 2012 Dyckerhoff's cement volumes remained on previous
year's level. The recovery in Ukraine, Russia and USA counterbalanced the
declines in the other regions. Concrete as well as sand and gravel volumes
continued to lie below the previous year. Group sales remained constant.
Sales increases in the Eastern Europe and USA divisions counterbalanced the
decrease in the Germany/Western Europe division.

Group EBITDA declined by EUR 5 million. Thereof, one-time effects totaled
EUR 5 million as in the previous year. Depreciation and amortization
decreased by EUR 4 million, therefore, EBIT dropped by EUR 1 million. The
result before income taxes fell by EUR 3 million. In consideration of
income taxes, this added up to a result of EUR 20 million.

For fiscal year 2012, Dyckerhoff continues to expect the level of Group
sales and results to remain stable compared to 2011.

The complete Interim Report will be released on August 2, 2012 at noon.
