25.11.2005

The Rosenbauer Group’s business continued to develop very
satisfactorily in the third quarter of 2005. This year has been
characterised by comparatively high capacity utilisation, the dynamic
development of the Group’s US companies, and rising demand in
international export business.

Ground-breaking ceremony for the new logistics centre A result of the
past few years’ international sales successes, the huge growth in
production volumes at the Leonding site has led to an increasingly
strained space situation, particularly in the production field. At
the beginning of 2005, work commenced on implementing a new zoning
plan for the Leonding site.

The ground-breaking ceremony for the new building took place in
August 2005, and completion is scheduled for early in 2006.
Relocation of all warehousing, and rearrangement of the new
production space thereby freed up, will be carried out by the end of
the 3rd quarter of 2006.

REVENUE AND RESULTS TRENDS The Group posted revenues of EUR 211.8 m
in the first three quarters of 2005 (1-9/2004: EUR 216.5 m). Revenues
in the US segment climbed by around 40% to EUR 71.6 m (1-9/2004: EUR
51.1 m) on the back of stepped-up shipments under the US Army order
for a total of 170 vehicles. At EUR 119.6 m (1-9/2004: EUR 126.5 m),
the Austrian companies’ revenues fell short of planned levels, owing
to the deferral of certain shipments.

Despite this slightly reduced Group revenue figure, the profit from
operations (EBIT) rose from EUR 8.0 m (1-9/2004) to EUR 9.7 m, on
account of the improved margins achieved in international export
business, and thanks to positive developments at the Group’s American
companies. EBT increased correspondingly, from EUR 6.0 m (1-9/2004)
to EUR 7.8 m.

OUTLOOK Despite the outlays for the restructuring of Metz Aerials in
Karlsruhe, Management expects that the positive results trend now
being experienced in international export orders, and the dynamic
development of the US companies, will take Group revenues above the
EUR 299.4 m achieved in 2004, and that last year’s EBT of EUR 10.5 m
will be exceeded by more than 10%.
