Ahrensburg, July 13th, 2010 - The second quarter of 2010 went better 
than expected for Basler AG. According to preliminary figures, sales 
and pre-tax earnings were significantly above previous year's levels 
and beyond management board's expectations.

of EUR 8.1 mill. by 64.3 %. Earnings before taxes (EBT) for the group
were EUR 1.7 mill., up EUR 6.6 mill. against the previous year's 
value of EUR -4.9 mill.. The EBT-margin for the second quarter was 
12,8%.

Assuming continued market development we increase our guidance for 
the fiscal year 2010. We expect group sales to grow to a level 
between EUR 43 mill. and EUR 45 mill. (prev. guidance: EUR 39 - 41 
mill.; 2009 sales: EUR 33.7 mill.) at an EBT of no less than EUR 3.5 
mill. (prev. guidance: > EUR 1.5 mill.; 2009 EBT: EUR -8.0 mill.).
