EANS-Adhoc: Preliminary Results: Delticom Beats FY2009 Forecast

  ad-hoc disclosure pursuant to section 15 of the WpHG transmitted by euro
  adhoc with the aim of a Europe-wide distribution. The issuer is solely
  responsible for the content of this announcement.
18.01.2010
- Revenues: EUR 310 million, +20% year-on-year
- EBIT: EUR 28 million (2008: EUR 16.4 million, +70%)
- EBIT margin exceeds 9%
- 2010 guidance: up to 10% revenue growth, 8% EBIT margin
Hanover, 18 January 2009 - Delticom AG (German Securities Code (WKN) 
514680, ISIN DE0005146807, stock market symbol DEX), Europe's leading
online tyre dealer, has released preliminary figures for the fiscal 
year 2009.
Since mid of 2009, the consumer climate has been deteriorating, 
dragged down late-cyclically by the recession. This placed European 
retail business under mounting pressure over the course of the last 
year. Against this backdrop, E-Commerce fared relatively well. 
Delticom's new customer growth reflects this resilience: Last year, 
800.000 customers purchased tyres for the first time in one of the 
company's many online shops. Group revenues in 2009 totalled EUR 310 
million, after prior-year revenues of EUR 259 million. Compared to 
the original guidance of +10%, the realized growth of +20% came in 
twice as strong as expected.
The extreme snowy weather in many European countries translated into 
the highest tyre sales in Delticom's history. In Germany new car 
registrations resulting from the scrappage scheme created further 
selling opportunities for winter tyres. As a result, revenues in the 
closing quarter were EUR 108 million, up 29% from last year.
Delticom had stocked up early in order to be able to deliver the 
tyres reliably during the peak of the winter tyre season. This 
allowed superior margins to be achieved, particularly towards the end
of the year. The Group generated an EBIT margin of 12% in Q4. On a 
full-year view, EBIT grew by 70%, from EUR 16.4 million to EUR 28 
million. This equates to an EBIT margin of above 9%, significantly 
outperforming the 7% forecast.
For 2010 a comparable concurrence of favourable top- and bottom line 
effects is unlikely. Moreover, economists are still undecided on how 
the weakening consumer sentiment will impact European online shopping
this year. Nevertheless, the Management Board remains confident that 
Delticom will continue on its growth path, with a planned revenue 
increase of up to 10% year-on-year. Assuming a supportive course of 
business, an EBIT margin of 8% is attainable.
Delticom will publish its 2009 financial statements on 23 March 2010 
on its Website www.delti.com in the Investor Relations section.
