Ad-hoc Announcement as per § 15 WpHG

VIVACON AG increases EBIT from EUR -0.7 mn to EUR 6.9 mn

Cologne, August 22nd 2005. VIVACON AG (ISIN DE0006048911) increased
in the first halfyear 2005 net income to EUR 3.7 mn from EUR -1.3 mn
in 2004. Earnings per share for the first halfyear 2005 amount to EUR
0.22 vs. EUR -0.09 in the last year.

Given the concentration on institutional transactions and the boosted
trade with hereditary building rights, fewer new properties were put
up for sale on a retail basis in the first half of 2005 and thus
VIVACON AG’s turnover up to 30.06.2005 was thus reduced from EUR 20.9
mn to EUR 12.7mn, in comparison to the same period in the previous
year. However, the substantially increased profitability of the
widened business meant that EBIT was significantly increased to EUR
6.9 mn from EUR -0.7mn at the end of the first half of 2004.

Total output rose to EUR 23.3 mn compared to EUR 19.4 mn in 2004.
Pre-order volume, which will lead to revenues in the coming quarters
has risen to EUR 31.3 mn against EUR 21.0 mn in 2004.

Due to its project oriented business model VIVACON AG historically
had very volatile quaterly results, whereas the bulk of the annual
business volume usually is recorded in the second half-year.
