9-month report
08.05.2008
Ad hoc release according to § 15 WpHG Berlin 8th May 2008. 
Marseille-Kliniken AG (Prime Standard, ISIN DE  0007783003, MKA) was 
able to further increase its operating turnover by 5.7% to EUR 170.6 
m in the first three quarters of the financial year 2007/2008 
(previous  year  EUR 161.4 m). The EBIT improved from EUR 10.2 m to 
EUR 12.6 m. The EBITDAR  expanded from EUR 44.7 m to EUR 51.0 m. The 
unadjusted annual surplus increased from  EUR 3.1 m to currently EUR 
10.4 m. For the profit per share this corresponds to  EUR 0.86, 
following EUR 0.26 in the comparison period  of  the  previous  year.
The balanced equity is EUR 82.2 m (previous year:  EUR  66.3  m).  
Thus  the  equity ratio could be expanded once more and is now at 
32.6%. Due to the  latest  sale- and-lease-back transaction, the net 
debt of EUR 111.6 m  in  the  previous  year was reduced to currently
EUR 69.8 m.
The return according to DVFA/SG, adjusted by the starting costs  of  
care  costs and costs of idleness of rehabilitation facilities, 
decreased from EUR 9.2 m  to currently EUR 7.4 m. Although 
Rehabilitation was able to significantly  increase its return from 
EUR -1.1 m to EUR 0.8 m, the return in  Care  dropped  from  EUR 10.3
m to EUR 6.6 m. Therefore,  the  profit  per  share  according  to  
DVFA/SG achieved EUR 0.60, following EUR 0.75 in the comparison 
period of  the  previous year. The adjusted EBITDAR was at EUR  45.9 
m  at  the  end  of  the  reporting period, following EUR 49.9 m in 
the previous year.  The  adjusted  EBIT  reduced from EUR 16.7 m to 
currently EUR 12.5 m. The occupancy rate in the  consolidated group 
was increased from 89.9% to 92.5%.
The core segment  Care,  in  which  Marseille-Kliniken  represents  
86%  of  the group's bed capacity, was able to continue gaining in 
turnover. With  EUR  132.7 m Marseille-Kliniken achieved an increase 
in turnover of EUR 8.9  m  during  the reporting period in this 
segment, as opposed to EUR  123.8  m  turnover  in  the period of the
previous year. The occupancy rate was further  improved  with  the 
development of 92.8% in  the  previous  year  to  currently  93.4%.  
The  return according to DVFA/SG reduced from EUR 10.3 m to currently
EUR  6.6  m.  This  is essentially accounted for by high, unadjusted 
one-time investments in a  leading quality management system in 
Germany that incurred corresponding  expenses,  and the  related  
roll-out  costs  for  the  broad  introduction  of  eLearning.  In 
addition, increased energy costs, higher advertising expenditures  
and  advanced maintenance costs were a burden.
The positive development continued in Rehabilitation in  the  3rd  
quarter.  The segment  has  completed  the  turnaround  and  is  no  
longer   burdening   the consolidated operating  profits  this  
financial  year  anymore.  This  way  the occupancy rate in the 
segment was able to be increased significantly from  76.8% in the 
previous year to 89.2%, with 1,283 beds. With EUR  37.9  m,  turnover
in Rehabilitation was with the reduced capacity EUR 0.3 m over the 
previous  year's value of EUR 37.6 m  in  the  reporting  period.  In
the  result  according  to DVFA/SG, with EUR 0.8 m once again  a  
positive  contribution  was  able  to  be booked, after the value of 
the  previous  year's  EUR  -1.1  m.  Based  on  the division's 
successful renovation, the company maintains its intent to  sell  off
Rehabilitation by selling the operating businesses as soon  as  the  
uncertainty on the financial markets has calmed down.
The number of beds was increased to a total of 8,899 beds (+134) in 
the  current financial year. There are a further 4 locations with 600
beds  currently  under construction, and further bed capacities will 
be created in the Care segment  in the development of assisted 
living. In relation to this locations  have  already been secured in 
seven eastern  German  cities  for  the  purchase  of  operating 
companies for an additional 3000  flats  for  assisted  living,  
which  will  be gradually taken over into the company in the coming 
financial years.
The company has corrected its forecast turnover by EUR 7.0 m to EUR 
233.0 m  for the entire financial year 2007/2008. The main reason for
this  is  the  delayed occupancy of expansion facilities in Care. In 
contrast,  the  EBIT  forecast  of EUR 24.0 and the results after tax
of EUR 18.0 m remain  unchanged.  The  profit per share will 
therefore increase to EUR/share 1.48 in comparison  to  EUR/share 
0.75 in the previous year.
