On Group revenues of EUR 217.9 m (up from EUR 200.9 m for 1-9/2002),
EBT for the first three quarters rose 21% to EUR 12.0 m (1-9/2002:
EUR 9.9 m).

This superb result may be attributed to stepped-up export shipments
by Rosenbauer International AG and to the excellent results posted in
the USA and Spain. At ThEUR 731, a higher EBIT figure (up 21 %) was
also achieved in Singapore.

Outlook
In view of the sustained positive trend in the Group's business,
Management expects year-2003 revenues to break the EUR 300 m barrier
(2002: EUR 286.5 m), with an EBT figure to match that achieved in the
record year 2002 (EUR 15.7 m).

Present order-book levels, and the volume of international project
business currently being worked on, together suggest that the
above-average level of capacity utilisation at the Group's main
production facilities may be expected to continue during 2004.
