quarterly report
With revenues of almost 300 million euros
(294.2)and earnings before taxes, depreciation and amortization 
(EBITDA) of almost 60 million euros (59.1), the Koblenz-based 
CompuGROUP Holding AG, who specializes in the healthcare information 
technology sector (HIT), again achieved record results, despite the 
worldwide economic crisis in 2009.
"I am proud of the progress of our company and the performance of our
employees," said Frank Gotthardt, Founder and Chief Executive 
Officer. "The progress we have made, in particular during the past 
two quarters, demonstrates that we are successfully managing and 
continuing our growth by focusing on our core business. This inspires
all of us for 2010." With approximately 2,800 employees in 18 
different countries, CompuGROUP develops intelligent software for 
private practice physicians, dentists, hospitals and consumers, as 
well as the most effective and most secure connectivity solutions for
all participants in the healthcare system.
In Germany alone, approximately one out of two private practice 
physicians uses CompuGROUP systems and there are approximately 
326,000 users worldwide. In addition, intelligent CompuGROUP products
utilize this extensive coverage to support physicians and treatment 
teams in finding even better diagnostic and treatment options for 
their patients during their daily clinical routine. This is an 
innovative product and solution spectrum with enormous potential for 
further development. In the fourth quarter of 2009, this amounted to 
revenue of 84.4 million euros. This is an increase of 19% compared to
the same period last year. Christian Teig, CompuGROUP CFO, could also
announce an increase of 46% to 17.9 million euros in fourth quarter 
operating profit. "We were able to expand our position as a market 
leader in many sectors, in a difficult economic environment. For our 
shareholders, this translates to a cash net income of 0.74 euros per 
share for 2009. Not many companies are able to present such a result 
to their shareholders during these tough economic times. We take 
great pride in that."
CompuGROUP expects revenue between 315 and 330 million euros for 2010
and operating profit (EBITDA) between 67 and 73 million euros. Aside 
from the company´s ambitious growth goals, Frank Gotthardt sees a 
particular potential for savings in the healthcare system, which 
could be achieved through increased efficiency with the use of 
CompuGROUP products. "We are going on the assumption that "more 
health" and "more efficiency" can be achieved in this area with the 
use of our software solutions. These effects could be in the range of
as much as 15% of all healthcare spending. Since the patients feel 
better as a result, one could also argue: More health - fewer 
expenses. We are working toward this goal so we can participate in 
these improvements, achieved through our solutions for medical 
workflow and decision support. That is my vision - and not just for 
2010."
Conference Call for Journalists, Investors and Analysts: The 
management board of CompuGROUP Holding AG will go through the Q4 
results at a conference for analysts and investors today at 15:00
