In the first three quarters of 2009, total revenue amounted to EUR 
146.9 million (previous year: EUR 159.5 million). Due to declining 
raw material costs, productivity improvements and an improvement in 
the financial result earnings before tax were at a good level, 
totalling EUR 14.5 million (previous year: EUR 14.5 million). Higher 
minority interests led to a decrease in the consolidated net profit 
for the period to EUR 7.8 million (previous year: EUR 10.5 million).
Performance of the divisions
The Sempermed division reported a 18.9% increase in revenue in the 
first quarter 2009, to EUR 67.4 million, expanding even more strongly
than the overall market. Earnings before tax (EBT) of the Sempermed 
division improved to EUR 7.8 million (previous year: EUR 3.6 
million), which can be attributed to a series of successfully 
implemented measures designed to raise efficiency.
Total revenue of the Semperflex division declined by 33.6% in the 
first three months of 2009, to EUR 28.5 million, based on weak demand
in all segments and in all sales markets. Accordingly, earnings 
before tax fell to EUR 1.5 million (previous year: EUR 5.2 million).
Total revenue of the Semperform division amounted to EUR 22.8 million
in the first quarter of 2009, a decline of 18.1%. All segments were 
negatively impacted by the economic crisis, though to varying 
extents. Earnings before tax fell by 56.2% year-on-year, to EUR 1.6 
million.
The Sempertrans division registered a revenue decrease of 11.8% to 
EUR 28.2 million. Earnings before tax were above the preceding year's
level, totalling EUR 4.1 million (previous year: EUR 4.0 million).
Outlook
Due to the difficult economic conditions, business in all segments in
which Semperit operates is expected to decline, with the exception of
the Sempermed division. Nevertheless, Semperit aims to cushion the 
revenue decrease by increasing its market shares. On the earnings 
side, Semperit is working to achieve further process optimisation and
cost saving. Investments in existing facilities as a means of 
furthering increasing efficiency are designed to strengthen 
Semperit's overall competitive position.
