6-month report
SinnerSchrader continued its positive business
development in the first half of the 2009/2010 financial year 
(1 September 2009 to 28 February 2010). Net revenues rose by a good 
8.4 per cent to around EUR 11.3 million. After a growth rate of 
6.4 per cent in the first financial quarter, SinnerSchrader achieved 
double-digit growth of 10.8 per cent in the second quarter of 
2009/2010. This positive development was driven by the Interactive 
Marketing segment, which saw revenue growth of 9 per cent in the 
first half-year. Incoming orders in the first half of the financial 
year were nearly 16 per cent higher than in the year before.
Business with new customers accounted for nearly 12 per cent of the 
net revenues; this figure was a good 7 per cent last year. Among 
other things, SinnerSchrader won and completed an order from the Otto
Group to design and implement the new online shoe shop mirapodo.de. 
SinnerSchrader also received first orders from REWE, Heine Versand, 
and Radio Hamburg. spot-media won a contract with the Hamburg 
duty-free shop operator Gebr. Heinemann.
SinnerSchrader was able to double its operating result (EBITA) to 
EUR 0.8 million in the first half-year compared to the year before. 
SinnerSchrader also continued to invest in the expansion of the new 
business fields of e-commerce outsourcing and ad serving, the 
start-up costs for which amounted to EUR 0.7 million in the half-year
covered by the report. The operating margin was 7.1 per cent.
SinnerSchrader has therefore confirmed its targets for the 2009/2010 
financial year and expects net revenue growth of over 14 per cent as 
well as a disproportionate rise in the operating result (EBITA).
The net income improved in the first half-year by nearly 
EUR 0.4 million to reach a good EUR 0.4 million. The earnings per 
share amounted to 4 cents. Thanks to a strong operating cash flow 
since 31 August 2009, the liquidity reserve grew by around 
EUR 1.0 million to reach EUR 9.0 million as of 28 February 2010, 
despite the dividend payment in December 2009. The equity ratio was 
60.7 per cent. On 28 February 2010, the SinnerSchrader Group had 294 
employees.

In one of its regular meetings, the Supervisory Board approved the 
proposal of the Management Board to begin buying back treasury stock 
again on the basis of the authorisation granted by the Annual General
Meeting on 16 December 2009. The buy-back programme is initially 
scheduled to end on 31 August 2010, but at the latest it will end 
when the share of treasury stock has reached a threshold of 10 per 
cent of the share capital. SinnerSchrader AG currently holds treasury
stock which represents 2.34 per cent of the share capital.
