3-month report
28.04.2008
Sales Q1 2008: EUR116.6m (+12%)
EBIT Q1 2008: EUR2.2m (+40%)
EBITDA Q1 2008: EUR4.1m (+30%)
April 29, 2008. The S&T Group achieved remarkable results in Q1 2008:
Overall sales rose 12% to EUR116.6m, and sales in the Business 
Solutions area rocketed an outstanding +55%. EBIT increased to 
EUR2.2m. EBITDA also rose by +30% to EUR4.1m. S&T stock performed 
well despite challenging market conditions - in March the share price
rose +7.4% to outperform all other shares of the ATX Prime Index.
The success of the S&T Group´s strategy has been confirmed by the IT 
consulting and solution provider´s Q1 2008 results. The company has 
been pushing its consulting, solutions and service operations as they
are less affected by seasonal influences than the IT infrastructure 
business. During the traditionally weak business period at the start 
of the year, S&T recorded growth in sales of 12% and EBIT growth of 
40%. As expected, after record results in the 4th Quarter of 2007 and
for the 2007 financial year as a whole, S&T´s growth is set to 
continue. S&T has won new and strategically important business. At 
the same time other contracts were successfully completed and solid 
foundations were laid for another successful year in 2008.
A boom in IT consulting and solutions The IT consulting and solutions
area of the business recorded particularly outstanding results in the
1st Quarter of 2008 - rising 55% to EUR34.6m. By 2010, the company 
plans to generate more than 60% of its sales from both this and the 
Managed Services business areas. Particularly in the DACH region S&T 
has achieved in the managed services business area a good market 
position by assuming responsibility for the servicing of entire IT 
areas. Numerous large contracts in this area in Q1 led to an organic 
sales growth of 18% to EUR23m. One contract alone was worth EUR1.8m: 
The S&T Group was contracted by ISS Facility Services to manage the 
planning, implementation and servicing of a data center, as well as 
the IT setup for 450 workstations and 140 printers at 51 ISS 
locations. In addition, January saw S&T begin work on the 
implementation of a multi-million euro Managed Desktop Service 
contract in 14 countries for OMV. As expected, Q1 also saw the 
Enterprise Systems business area with sales of EUR59m demonstrating 
robust and profitable performance.
Outlook 2008 The outlook for the 2008 financial year remains 
unchanged: S&T anticipates sales of between EUR560m and EUR580m, and 
EBIT of between EUR15m and EUR17m.
