JoWooD Productions Software AG increased its revenues of the first 9 
months by 8,7% to EUR 18,6 million.
EBIT for the first 9 months of FY 2008 amounts to EUR 1,8 million. 
Because of the focus on distribution titles on console and PC in the 
third quarter (75% of the Q3 lineup consists of distribution titles),
an increase of distribution costs has been registered. In the third 
quarter, no titles in the scope of core brands (= publishing titles) 
have been released.
With significantly reduced investment risk (as per September 30th 
2008, 13,6% of the total equity have been invested, previous 
reference period: 18,1%), the turnover of investments in revenues 
have been increased to 493%, i.e. the total investment volume has 
been turned over approximately 5 times, whereas investments of the 
previous year´s reference period turned over approx. 3,7 times. The 
cost-conscious investment policy combined with the strong 
distribution network enables an increase in revenues with a lower 
investment volume.
Additionally, the invested funds have been spread on a significantly 
higher amount of titles and multiple, widespread and established 
console platforms (Nintendo® Wii™, Nintendo® DS™).
