Operating revenue            134,717    132,352     +1.8%

Information on the current business year 2009 Winter-sport: Guest 
admissions whole region (Jan-Feb)  648,000       -7.2% Excursion 
traffic: Visitors to Jungfraujoch (Jan. Feb.) 31,606      -30.2%
At the end of February, Jungfrau Railways recorded a total reduction 
of 13,700 visitors (-30.2%) in the Jungfraujoch business segment. 
Visitor numbers are thus similar to those of 2005 and 2006. However, 
only about 5% of the total annual number of visitors is transported 
in these two months. The two peak-season months of July and August 
2009 will have a significant effect on the overall result.

conference in Zurich, Prof. Dr. Thomas Bieger, Executive Board 
Chairman, Urs Kessler, CEO and Christoph Seiler, Director of Finance 
and Controlling, will comment on the annual financial statement.
