The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

SURTECO SE, leading international manufacturer of surface technologies based on plastics and papers for the international construction and furnishing industry, generated sales of EUR 291.7 million in the first three quarters of 2010. This was an improvement of 15 % above the sales volume in the equivalent year-earlier period. The German market grew by 4 %, foreign sales rose by 21 %. The percentage of foreign sales went up by three percentage points to 67 %.
The Strategic Business Unit Plastics closed the first nine months of the reporting year with sales of EUR 171.9 million (+9 %). The paper segment generated EUR 119.8 million (+26 %). Growth was primarily powered by foreign markets.
During the first three quarters of 2010, the operating result (EBITDA) of the SURTECO Group amounted to EUR 48.9 million (+14 %). Earnings before tax (EBT) increased by +95 % from EUR 13.6 million to EUR 26.4 million. This was due to a number of factors including a significant improvement in the financial result from EUR -14.4 million to EUR -6.7 million. In the first quarter of 2009, an impairment of EUR 6.0 million was necessary on account of the unfavourable development in price for the package of shares in Pfleiderer AG, Neumarkt, held by SURTECO.
Consolidated net profit amounted to EUR 19.4 million (2009: EUR 7.7 million) during the first six months of the year. 11,075,522 no-par shares yield earnings per share of EUR 1.75 (2009: EUR 0.69).
