Hanover, April 30, 2008 - Delticom AG (German
Securities Code (WKN) 514680, ISIN DE0005146807, ticker symbol DEX), 
Europe´s leading Internet tyre dealer, recorded revenues totaling EUR
42.6 million in the first three months of fiscal year 2008 - 
according to preliminary figures. In addition, non-domestic revenues 
were up from EUR 24.8 million to EUR 27.7 million. The first three 
months of the year are traditionally the weakest for tyre retailers.
As a result of the long period of cold temperatures at the start of 
the year, business with summer tyres in many European countries only 
really got started in April. In spite of this, Delticom was able to 
lift its revenues in the first three months of 2008 by 9.4% compared 
to Q1 2007. This increase in revenues is also linked to a significant
increase in the customer base from 1.9 million to 2.1 million.
Co-CEO Rainer Binder is very pleased with the developments: "Revenues
grew year-on-year, although the comparison base was high due to the 
strong Q1 2007. We have been able to decouple our business from the 
German home market and continue to expand our international business.
This will make us even more independent of regional developments in 
the future." Delticom forecasts revenues of EUR 240 - EUR 260 million
for the year as a whole, with revenues thus up by up to 20% yoy.
According to the recently published "ADAC Reifenmonitor 2008", the 
group of 18-39 year olds are particularly open to the Internet. 
Accordingly, an average of 28.1% of those surveyed said that they 
could imagine buying their tyres online. Of this group, just 6.1% 
have actually bought tyres in the Internet. This means that there is 
still sufficient growth potential for the coming years.
The www.reifendirekt.de portal was redesigned in April. The 
TÜV-certified shop was revamped to make it more transparent and 
customer friendly, allowing consumers to find the right tyres even 
more quickly, and to then conclude their purchase.
Delticom AG will publish its full three-month report for 2008 on May 
14, 2008.

depending on the customer's instructions, either directly to the

cooperates and which allows tyres to be delivered directly to their 
address to be mounted on the customer's vehicle, or to a different 
delivery address. In addition, Delticom's Wholesale division also 
sells tyres to wholesalers in Germany and abroad.
