  Disclosure announcement transmitted by euro adhoc.
  The issuer is responsible for the content of this announcement.
09.02.2006
- Beta Systems closes FY 2005 with higher sales and earnings
Berlin, February 9, 2006 - Based on an assessment of its Q4 2005
performance figures, the Management Board of Beta Systems Software AG
(BSS, ISIN DE0005224406) is of the opinion that revenue from
continuing operations under IFRS amounted to approx. Euro 95.6
million in the 2005 financial year (FY 2004: Euro 90.0 million). This
opinion is subject to the examination by the Company's auditors.
Preliminary net profit for the period was approx. Euro 1.0 million
(FY 2004: Euro 0.1million). This figure includes an extraordinary
gain of Euro 5.8 million on disposal of one of the Company's business
units, as announced on a previous occasion, and exceptional charges
of Euro 5.5 million attributable to integration, restructuring and
cost-reduction measures. As part of the planning processes for the
year 2006, the Management Board, together with the heads of the
respective business lines, has identified further significant
potential for cost reduction that can be realized irrespective of the
planned increase in revenue. The new corporate structure is conducive
to streamlined processes, accelerated workflow and improved
organizational configurations. As part of efforts to realize this
potential, the 2006 financial year is once again expected to produce
exceptional expenses similar in scope to those recorded in the 2005
financial year; these expense items have been accounted for in the
Company's plans. The Supervisory Board has approved the
above-mentioned corporate plans and has assured the Management Board
of its full support in implementation. Beyond this information, the
Management Board has indicated that it shall be making no FY 2006
forecasts at this moment in time. Management will report in a timely
manner about the success, progress as well as revenue and earnings
effects achieved on the basis of restructuring.
