The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- bmp Holding AG: new business generates revenue for the first time Berlin, 27.08.2015 - bmp Holding AG (ISIN DE0003304200) today announced its preliminary figures in accordance with IFRS for the first half of 2015. Following classification of the former venture capital business as a "discontinued operation" in the first quarter of 2015 and the successful majority takeover of online trader sleepz GmbH on 1 May 2015, in the second quarter the new e-commerce Sleep business generated revenue for the first time. This amounted to approximately EUR 1 million for the first two months of full consolidation of sleepz GmbH (previous year: EUR 0 million). The first half of 2015 closed with a profit of EUR 0.5 million (previous year: loss of EUR 0.1 million). Due to the fact, that minus EUR 0.2 million is attributable to non-controlling shareholders (of sleepz GmbH), the income, which was attributable to bmp Holding's shareholders, amounted to EUR 0.7 million. It was primarily attributable to the positive contribution of EUR 0.9 million from the discontinued operation. bmp Holding AG also founded the subsidiary Grafenfels Manufaktur GmbH at the end of June 2015. As of the fourth quarter of 2015, this company intends to sell its own "Grafenfels" mattress brand which it developed in-house, thereby developing into a second revenue mainstay for bmp Holding AG. Depending on further acquisitions, we anticipate revenue of EUR 5-7 million and a net loss of EUR 0.5-1 million from operating business for the second half of 2015. The overall result in 2015 will continue to depend on the earnings contributed by the discontinued operation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information and Explaination of the Issuer to this News: For further information Corinna Riewe Tel.: +49 30 2030 5567 criewe@bmp.com This ad hoc report represents neither an offer nor a request for an offer for the purchase of securities to be submitted - especially not in the USA and not in countries or jurisdictions in which an offer, a request for an offer for the purchase of securities to be submitted or the sale of securities would not be permitted under the prevailing Securities Law without prior registration or listing.
