The ElringKlinger Group achieved a clear growth in sales and earnings
in the second quarter of 2005. The half-yearly figures in sales and
earnings are on target.  Sales rose in the second quarter by 7.0
percent to EUR 123.0 million (EUR 114.9 million for the previous
year). In the first half of the year net sales were EUR 240.0
million, an increase of 3.2 percent over the first half of 2004 (EUR
232.5 million).  Earnings before interest and taxes for the second
quarter rose from EUR 19.2 million for the previous year to EUR 21.0
million (plus 9.4 percent). Earnings before interest and taxes for
the first half of the year rose from EUR 38.8 million to EUR 41.0
million (plus 5.7 percent). ElringKlinger increased its pre-tax
earnings in the second quarter by 10.8 percent to 19.5 million (EUR
17.6 million for the same period in the previous year). In the period
January to June 2005 this was EUR 38.0 million, against EUR 35.6
million for the comparable period of the previous year (plus 6.7
percent). Net income in the second quarter was increased by 11.2
percent to EUR 11.9 million (EUR 10.7 million for the second quarter
2004). Earnings for the half year of EUR 23.5 million were up 6.8
percent on the comparable period of the previous year (EUR 22.0
million).  ElringKlinger does not expect any significant trend for
economic growth during the rest of the year. Sales and earnings of
the ElringKlinger Group will continue to grow in 2005, in spite of
ongoing economic weakness in the automotive industry. Provided that
no essential external events will occur to deflate the worldwide
economy, ElringKlinger continues to believe that the planned growth
in sales and earnings will be achieved for 2005 as a whole.
