3-month report
14.05.2010
Solar-Fabrik AG (ISIN: DE0006614712) has increased sales in the 1st 
quarter 2010 by ca. 56% to 33.565 million euros (Q1-09: 21.572 
million euros). Concurrently, Q1 EBIT improved by 4.890 million 
euros, from -1.877 million euros to 3.013 million euros. The 
quarterly profit amounts to 2.481 million euros (Q1-09: -0.5 million 
euros) representing ca. 0.21 EUR per share.
The first quarter (external) sales for "Solar Power Systems" was 
33.559 million euros (Q1-09: 21.572 million euros). The corresponding
EBIT of 2.972 million euros (Q1-09: -1.901 million euros) represents 
the best Q1 EBIT ever for Solar-Fabrik AG.
The first quarter EBIT of business segment "Solar Cell Production" 
reached 59,000 euros (Q1-09: 303,000 euros). Solar-Fabrik-AG 
anticipates a slightly positive full year EBIT for this segment in 
2010.
Financial return for PV investors remains at an attractive level also
in 2010, driven by the continued cost reduction. The anticipated 
feed-in-tariff reduction in Germany generates increased demand for PV
systems in Germany. In combination with a solid market growth driven 
by a lot of other European countries this has led to an unusually 
high sales volume in Q1 2010, despite a long German winter. Based on 
this Q1 volume Solar-Fabrik is on track towards a high double digit 
percentage growth for the full year and thus gaining market share in 
Europe. This goal is supported by increased marketing and sales 
effort as well as an optimized utilization of the installed capacity 
through extra shifts. Solar-Fabrik AG is leveraging the volume growth
towards further productivity improvements and economy of scale 
effects in sourcing, logistics and production towards better 
competitiveness also in 2nd half 2010. Solar- Fabrik´s further growth
will be driven by beyond average demand for Premium products 
`made-in-Germany´ and by leveraging its local presence towards a 
sustainable competitive advantage. Based on the current booking level
Solar- Fakrik AG anticipates a solid 2010 profit for its Solar Power 
Systems business.
