Accu Holding AG: Preliminary Financial Results 2015(unaudited)

-Sales of 158,5m with an EBITDA of 17,7m and net income of 3,1m

-Request for extension of deadline for publication of annual report submitted to
SIX

Emmenbrücke, April 21st 2016 - Based on preliminary and unaudited results, Accu
Holding AG (Accu) closed its financial year 2015 with a consolidated turnover of
CHF 158,5 million which is an increase of 19% versus previous year's sales of
CHF 133,2 million. Operating result on EBITDA-level increased to CHF 17,7
million (2014: EBITDA 7,8 million) resulting in an EBITDA margin of 11,1% (2014:
5,8%). Net income reached CHF 3,1 million (2014: 2,1 million). Further details
can be found in the attached overview of the unaudited financial statements.

Due to the impact on Accu of the ongoing investigation against the former
Chairman of the Board of Accu by the public prosecutor office of the Canton of
Zurich on the basis of possible offences against property (see press release
April 11th 2016), supporting documents requested during the audit process cannot
be presented. Accu has therefore submitted to SIX Exchange Regulation a request
for extension of the deadline to publish its annual report by the end of April.
The decision on the request is still pending.

*The badwill from the previous year was a result of the acquisition of the Nexis
Group. The badwill in 2014 arose as a result of the purchase price adjustment
for RCT. CHF 264,000 of the total of CHF 569,000 was recognized in the income
statement with the remaining goodwill amount and the difference was charged to
equity.
