aleo solar AG (ISIN: DE000A0JM634)
is raising its forecast for 2008: instead of the previous EUR 240 
million revenue target, the Company is now expecting organic growth 
to between EUR 250 million and EUR 270 million in revenue while its 
EBIT margin will remain solid. Revenue generated abroad is expected 
to amount to approximately 35%, and the goal of generating 50% of 
revenue until the end of 2010 abroad is being reiterated.
The raised forecast is based on the sustained high demand for solar 
modules and existing supply contracts for solar cells. Revenue 
generated from thin film modules is not included in the forecast. The
market launch of aleo´s T_50 module, which is based on an innovative 
thin film technology, is slated for 2008. However, plans to present a
prototype in September at the 22nd European Photovoltaic Solar Energy
Conference and Exhibition in Milan have been postponed. "The aleo 
premium brand stands for high power yields and excellent quality. We 
want to unveil a fully functional, highly efficient module - this 
requires time", explained Jakobus Smit, CEO of aleo solar AG.
The innovative thin film technology is being applied on an industrial
scale for the first time by aleo solar´s cooperation partner Johanna 
Solar Technology GmbH. Production and the production process are 
currently being optimised with the help of the South African inventor
of this technology, Professor Vivian Alberts, in Brandenburg/Havel. 
Jeroen Haberland, Johanna Solar Technology´s Managing Director: "This
is a unique and complex development process that does not always 
progress evenly, especially at the beginning."
aleo solar is Johanna Solar Technology´s distribution partner and 
will market the thin film module under the aleo brand name. This 
cooperation is set to last for at least five years.
