Disclosure announcement transmitted by euro adhoc. The issuer is responsible for the content of this announcement.
Ludwigsburg, 13 February 2003 - Jetter AG (Neuer Markt: JTT) today reports its third business quarter ended 31 December, registering further results of its cost cutting measures. Although the traditionally weak third quarter brought no significant change in sales, operating loss was 8 % less than in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Jetter expects another distinct improvement for the last quarter of the business year, because the cost cutting measures taken in the late summer of 2002 will yield their full potential as from January 2003. In January 2003, the contracts finalising the co-operation with Lumberg Automation Components GmbH & Co. KG, announced in December, have already been signed, including the acquisition by Lumberg of a share in Jetter. The co-operation, which foresees among others a pooling of the respective sales organisations, will provide Jetter with a broadened global market access through a completed product portfolio, especially for JetWeb products, which are meanwhile proven in various projects. In the first nine months of the business year, Jetter registered sales of KEUR 9,897. EBIT for the nine months was a loss of KEUR -5,566, after one-time restructuring costs of KEUR 850. The complete interim report in electronic form is available at the websites of Jetter (http://www.jetter.de) and Deutsche Börse (http://deutsche-boerse.com).
