9-month report
09.11.2009
Given the 9-month figures and a current outlook based on the October 
figures stock listed medical device manufacturer W.O.M. WORLD OF 
MEDICINE AG anticipates that this year`s development after the first 
nine months will also be carried forward in the fourth quarter 2009. 
This implies a reduction in sales for the year 2009 as a whole of 
approximately 15%, with a return on sales before taxes of 3%. This 
takes into account the weakening of the US dollar. The previous 
outlook expected sales at the level as 2008 and a return on sales 
before taxes of 6%.
Especially US sales were lower than expected. In the end of the 3rd 
quarter 2009, a slight increase in the volume of orders booked 
indicates tentative signs of recovery in the region. However, the 
sustainability of these signs and the pace at which a potential shift
in trends is established by WORLD OF MEDICINE`s sales are still 
placed in question.
The complete 9-Month Report 2009 is available on November 10, 2009,
