Following a record first quarter, JoWooD achieved again another 
record during the 2nd quarter of 2007 compared with the period in the
previous year
"With that result we are not only well ahead of our own expectations,
but also those of analysts - and all that in the traditional weakest 
quarter of the industry -", comments CEO Dr. Albert Seidl and is 
highly satisfied with the "sensational result."
The integration of DreamCatcher into the JoWooD Group went faster as 
intended, and new games could be placed successfully in the market. 
"The figures speak for themselves", notes Seidl and sees the JoWood 
Group optimally positioned in the world market.
"We have done our home work, the company is excellently placed, and 
we look forward with pleasure to the result of the 2nd quarter."
With six quarter records in a row, and the successful expansion in 
the US market - JoWooD expects that the 3rd and 4th quarter results 
will be well beyond those of the previous year - the JoWooD Group 
presents itself as a completely restructured and new player in the 
games and console market.
The following titles were published during the 2nd quarter:
Pirates of the European Seas: the add on to "The Guild 2" which was 
published during the 3rd quarter of 2006. SpaceForce: an economic 
simulation game situated in outer space and therefore the second 
title in the outer space genre. Project Anderson: a shooter made by 
and for fans, which has been supported and published by JoWood and 
plays in the extraordinary world of author H.P. Lovecraft. Panzer 
Elite Action Gold Edition: product bundle consisting of Panzer Elite 
Action and the add on Dunes of War. Secrets of Atlantis: another 
adventure game published by The Adventure Company. Dead Reefs: a 
fascinating and mysterious adventure taking place in the 18th century
published by The Adventure Company. SpellForce 2 Gold Edition: 
product bundle consisting of SpellForce 2 and the add on Dragon 
Storm.
