Tipp24 AG / Quarter Results



Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG transmitted by DGAP - a company of EquityStory AG.
The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

• EBIT January–September up 21.2 percent to EUR 5.1 million (prior year:
4.2)
• Leap in earnings and revenues due to record jackpot in third quarter

In the first nine months of fiscal 2006, earnings before interest and taxes
(EBIT) improved to EUR 5.1 million (prior year: 4.2), representing an
increase of 21.2 percent. Due to a non-recurring tax effect, there was a
disproportionately strong increase in net profit of almost 150 percent to
EUR 5.7 million (prior year: 2.3).

In the third quarter alone, EBIT reached EUR 2.1 million (prior year: 1.5)
– an increase of 45.0 percent. This is the highest quarterly EBIT result in
the company’s history. Over the same period, net profit improved by as much
as 85.3 percent to EUR 1.5 million (prior year: 0.8).

On the assumption that the current legal conditions remain unchanged,
Tipp24 AG expects to attract 300,000 to 400,000 new customers per year and
raise billings and revenues by 30 to 40% p.a. in each of the next two
years.

Tipp24 also expects EBIT for fiscal 2006 to slightly exceed the prior-year
EBIT figure of EUR 6.0 million.
