Tägerwilen/Switzerland, August 3, 2009. SAF AG, which is listed in 
the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (ISIN 
CH0024848738), expects - as already achieved in the first quarter 
2009 - also for the second quarter 2009 revenues of approx. EUR 4.5 
million (Q2/08: EUR 2.8 million), an increase in revenues of 
approximately 60 percent versus the same period of last year. During 
the past quarter, three licenses have been sold through the OEM 
partner, two more than during the second quarter of 2008. Thus, 
license revenues increased by approximately 150 percent compared to 
the previous year period.
In addition, maintenance business continues to develop into an 
important and stable revenue guarantor. For the second quarter 2009, 
maintenance revenues are expected to total about EUR 2.3 million 
(Q2/08: EUR 1.5 million) inclusive a one-time effect, and service 
revenues are expected to reach about EUR 0.4 million (Q2/08: EUR 0.5 
million).
"Also in the second quarter we were able to further expand our solid 
start into the 2009 fiscal year," comments Dr. Andreas von Beringe, 
CEO at SAF in reviewing expected second quarter 2009 revenues. "In 
addition to successes in our direct sales business with Douglas and a
further customer in the US, more licenses have been sold in the OEM 
business compared to the previous year period," adds von Beringe. The
Company is able to show an increase in revenues also in comparison 
with the half year revenues 2008, which generates satisfaction with 
regard to its initial performance in the 2009 fiscal year.
Entire Q2/09 results will be announced at the beginning of calendar 
week 35.
