Taucha, 14 August 2003: LINTEC Information Technologies AG
(Securities Code Number 648600, ISIN DE0006486004) achieved a group
surplus in Q2 2003 of EUR703,000, thus continuing the upwards trend
of the past few quarters. Despite the mainly seasonal drop in
turnover, the LINTEC Group scored positive earnings at all levels for
the first time since restructuring began. The progress made through
restructuring is apparent when comparing the last four six-monthly
periods:

This persistent growth in income despite turnover declining by
two-thirds over the past two years results from increasingly
concentrating on the more profitable own-brand business and lower
costs brought about by more efficient Group structures. The figures
also benefited from writing back provisions no longer necessary in
subsidiaries and valuation adjustments in the investment segment. 
Operating cash flow in the first six months of 2003 remained positive
at EUR7.4m (compared to EUR14.3m year-on-year). It was mainly used to
help pay off bank loans. Current bank liabilities were reduced from
EUR32.3m to EUR26.2m, while liquid funds remained more or less
constant at EUR6.4m (up from EUR6.1m). Personnel expenditure was
reduced in the first six months of 2003 by 25.3% year-on-year. The
number of employees in the LINTEC Group dropped from 460 at the end
of June 2002 and 388 at the end of the year to 306.
