Baader Bank AG:

Preliminary consolidated net profit for 2009 in accordance with IFRSs

Unterschleissheim, 25 February 2010

In spite of a difficult capital market environment, Baader Bank AG
significantly grew its profit in the 2009 financial year owing to its
broad-based business positioning.

Germany's leading specialist in securities trading doubled its profits from
ordinary activities (+103.6%) in the year under review from EUR 11.6
million in the previous year to EUR 23.7 million. Earnings after taxes
increased by 110.5% to EUR 18.1 million from EUR 8.6 million in the
previous year, which is equivalent to earnings per share in 2009 of EUR
0.40 (previous year: EUR 0.19). Payment to shareholders of a dividend of
EUR 0.13 (previous year: EUR 0.06) is to be proposed to the General
Meeting. This will be distributed from the tax contribution account and is
therefore not subject to income taxes.

Since net trading and net fee and commission income were increased by 14.2%
overall to EUR 111.9 million (previous year: EUR 98.0 million) and
administrative expenses only rose at a disproportionately low rate of 1.8%
to EUR 89.3 million (previous year: EUR 87.7 million), profit from
operations was increased almost sixfold from EUR 4.2 million in the
previous year to EUR 23.4 million.

At the end of last year, equity amounted to EUR 177.6 million (previous
year: EUR 160.2 million). On the balance sheet date, the Group had 343
employees (previous year: 333).
