quarterly report
Subtitle: Group revenue for Hypoport AG remained stable in the first 
quarter of the year. However, a combination of negative factors 
resulted in a net loss for the period. Recent developments point 
towards a further stabilisation of the market and also to positive 
results from previous investments.
In the first quarter of 2010,
Hypoport was able to maintain a steady level of revenue at EUR12.08 
million (Q1 2009: EUR12.66 million). The general economic situation 
and the increased risk awareness and attention to credit ratings 
throughout the industry meant that markets remained very cautious 
once again during the quarter. The Berlin-based financial services 
group is continuing to invest in ground-breaking platform technology.
It also continued to implement its strategy of building up a 
comprehensive nationwide distribution network, successfully 
increasing both the number of branches and the number of advisers 
acting as sales agents or working in branch-based sales at the start 
of the year. As a result of this investment, with revenue remaining 
constant, EBITDA fell by 101 per cent to minus EUR28 thousand in the 
first quarter of 2010 (Q1 2009: EUR2.08 million).  "At the beginning 
of the year, a variety of factors came together to create a market 
environment that no-one had wished for," commented Ronald Slabke, 
Co-CEO of Hypoport AG. As far as the Hypoport Group is concerned, 
Slabke emphasised, "it is our conviction that by making these 
investments we have laid the foundations for the future success of 
our company. We are sticking to our strategy for growth, but 
constantly adapting our activities to changing market conditions. 
Following a very poor start to the year, recent weeks have provided 
indications of a recovery in the market."
