6-month report

Ad hoc release According to § 15 WpHG
Berlin, 8th February 2008. During the first half of the 2007/2008 
fiscal year, Marseille-Kliniken AG (Prime Standard, ISIN DE 
0007783003, MKA) further enhanced its turnover figures, reporting 
growth of EUR 4,2 m to EUR 112.1 m (previous year´s figure: EUR 107.9
m). The group annual result by minority interests improved from EUR 
2.6 m during the previous year to EUR 12.1 m in the period under 
review. This represents a result per share in the amount of EUR 1.00,
compared with EUR 0.22 the previous year. EBIT improved from EUR 8.2 
m to EUR 12.5 m. EBITDAR increased from EUR 31.4 m to EUR 36.9 m. 
Shareholder equity as per balance sheet rose to EUR 84.5 m, up from 
EUR 66.5 m in the previous reporting period. This made it possible to
increase the equity ratio once again, to 33.8%. The last 
sale-and-leaseback transaction made it possible to reduce net debt, 
from EUR 108.4 m in the same period last year to the current figure 
of EUR 66.4 m.
The capacity utilisation rate for the consolidated group rose from 
89.7% to 92.5%.
Adjusted for start-up losses for the costs of care and the costs of 
rehabilitation-facility downtime, the result according to DVFA/SG 
fell slightly, down EUR 0.4 m from EUR 7.0 m to its current level of 
EUR 6.6 m. While the rehabilitation area was able to improve its 
result by EUR 0.6 m for a balanced result, the result in the care 
area was EUR 1.0 m lower. This was due to planned expenditures in the
quality management area, with the aim of further improvements in bed 
occupancy, coupled with early servicing measures totalling EUR 0.7 m.
In addition to this, the increase in energy prices, EUR 0.5 m, was 
for the most part of temporary effect as approx. 60% of the 
additional energy costs were the consequence of lower average 
temperatures during the reporting period and the resultant increase 
in energy consumption. According to DVFA/SG, the result per share 
reached EUR 0.55, compared with EUR 0.63 during the comparable period
a year before. At the close of the reporting period, EBITDAR was EUR 
31.5 m, after EUR 33.1 m on the previous year. EBIT fell from EUR 
12.3 m to its current level, EUR 10.0 m.
The core segment of care is growing and was able to register growth 
of EUR 5.0 m in turnover, for a total of EUR 86.8 m, compared with 
EUR 81.8 m on the previous year. In terms of the result according to 
DVFA/SG, the care segment attained a result of EUR 6.6 m (previous 
year: EUR 7.6 m). Capacity utilisation improved over the previous 
year, to 93.6% (previous year´s figure: 92.6%).
In the rehabilitation area, the positive trend of the first quarter 
continued. As a result of capacity reductions, turnover fell to EUR 
25.3 m (previous year: EUR 26.1 m). Capacity utilisation had a 
positive effect, with a market 11.7% rise from 77.4% during the 
previous year to 89.9% for the period under review. The result 
according to DVFA/SG is balanced, representing a EUR 0.6 m 
improvement over the previous year (previous year´s figure: EUR -0.6 
m). The company continues to pursue the objective of finding a 
partner or buyer for its rehabilitation area.
During the fiscal year in progress, three new facilities were opened 
with a total of 310 beds (in Potsdam, Schömberg and Düsseldorf). 
Additional locations are in the construction stage; bed capacity will
also be added as the company develops its assisted living offerings 
in the care segment. In the reporting period under review, 
Marseille-Kliniken AG was able to expand its total number of beds to 
8,899 (+287), of which more than 85% are to be found in the care 
area.
For the entire 2007/2008 fiscal year, the company remains committed 
to reaching its forecast turnover figure of EUR 240 m, EBIT of EUR 24
m and pre-tax earnings of EUR 18 m. The positive trend in occupancy 
of the company´s care facilities will continue: the specialisation 
already successfully completed, together with the company´s 
verifiable quality management, offers advantages over the 
competition. Specifically, here speedier occupancy of existing 
expansion facilities, compared with the both first half-year and the 
same period in the previous year, will result in marked growth in 
turnover and falling start-up losses. Rehabilitation has successfully
weathered the turn of the tide and has been trimmed to a sustainable 
core level in terms of capacities. Following the first half-year, it 
can be anticipated that the results in the rehabilitation area will 
no longer place the group under a strain during the fiscal year in 
progress. Under its concept for Assisted Living, the company plans a 
distinct expansion of capacities and the opening of additional 
facilities during the current calendar year. In the area of 
in-patient care, three additional facilities with a total of 430 beds
are currently under construction.
Effective immediately, the complete Letter to Shareholders for the 
first half of the 2007/2008 fiscal year can be found online, at
