Alphaform AG / Key word(s): Preliminary Results 26.02.2015 17:12 Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted by DGAP - a service of EQS Group AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ad hoc Announcement Alphaform AG: Preliminary figures 2014 - revenue improvement and minor loss Feldkirchen, 26. February 2015. According to preliminary calculations, Alphaform AG, Europe's leading 3D printing service provider, increased its revenue by 11,6 percent to Euro 29 million in 2014. The growth was primarily based on positive performance in the two business segments Additive Manufacturing Metal and Rapid Tooling and Precision Casting at the Eschenlohe and Stade sites. As planned, the Alphaform Excellence programme launched in early 2014 took full effect here. Alphaform is ensuring its success in the third business segment, Additive Manufacturing Plastic at the Feldkirchen site, with an 11-point plan issued in October 2014. The remaining process and structural defects impeded the attainment of the Euro 30 million mark originally intended for 2014. As expected, the implementation of the 11-point plan necessitated additional expenses in the fourth quarter of 2014. After winning the biggest order in the company's history amounting to Euro 10 million at the end of 2014, there were also already considerable expenses for production preparations. According to preliminary calculations, EBITDA subsequently reached Euro -1.4 million in 2014, but this was significantly higher than the previous year's figure of Euro -3.5 million. The consolidated net result also improved to Euro -3.2 million according to preliminary calculations after Euro -6.2 million in the previous year. Further information is included in the Corporate News information, which was published today. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information and Explaination of the Issuer to this News: About Alphaform Founded in 1996 and headquartered in Feldkirchen near Munich, Alphaform AG is a leading European handler for the renovation of industrial development and production with innovative 3D printing and rapid technologies.
