Karlsruhe/Germany, March 27,  2007  -  ComBOTS  AG  (ISIN:  
DE000CMBT111)  today released its Consolidated Financial Statements 
for fiscal year 2006.
Fiscal year 2006 was characterized by the premiere of ComBOTS' next 
generation communication tool mid-year and the intensive 
forward-looking investments in both business and product development 
as well as performing the public beta phase. These upfront 
investments have been effected for the step-by-step market launch of 
the service as well as the company's organization and infrastructure.
ComBOTS now turned to normal operation. With its newly launched 1.0 
version of its communication service including a broad portfolio of 
new features and contents the company now enters the next phase of 
market introduction.
Following the extraordinary efforts in Q2 and Q3 to deliver the new 
service, ComBOTS AG had projected a normalization of the cost base in
Q4 of 2006. Indeed, the net loss decreased quarter-to-quarter by 36% 
to 7.9 million Euro. For the full year 2006, the investments into the
product, the completion of the network and server infrastructure, as 
well as the setup of the organization resulted in earnings before tax
of -35 million Euro, including fully expensed R&D-investments of 31 
million Euro.
This result compares to an unrealized gain in the market value of its
United Internet shareholding by 102 million Euro or 54% during the 
same period, further strengthening the substance of the company. 
Liquid assets for the year ended December 31, 2006, amounted to 463 
million Euro (Year-end 2005: 439 million Euro). These funds break 
down into 173 million Euro in cash and equivalents as well as 290 
million Euro for the 9.3% share in United Internet AG. See the table 
below for further details on the key financial figures for fiscal 
year 2006.
Taking into account the upcoming challenges relating to the broad 
distribution of the ComBOTS product and, in addition, the currently 
unforeseeable financing requirements for the planned international 
expansion, the Executive Board and the Supervisory Board propose to 
the Annual Shareholder Meeting the balance sheet profits to be 
carried forward completely on new accounts to provide a solid base 
for consistent utilization of the market opportunities resulting from
the development of our product.
