bmp media investors AG / Key word(s): Half Year Results 14.08.2013 15:00 Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted by DGAP - a company of EQS Group AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Net loss of EUR 469 thousand (EUR -0.02 /share) - One new investment in the second quarter of 2013 - Further new investments and profit forecast for 2013 bmp media investors AG (ISIN DE0003304200) is today announcing its IFRS figures for the first half of 2013. The first half of 2013 closed with a net loss of EUR 469 thousand (previous year: EUR -2.2 million). This is almost exclusively attributable to the negative share price development of the listed Polish investment K2 Internet S.A., which resulted in a loss of around EUR 640 thousand in the second quarter. K2's share price has since recovered slightly. Revenue amounted to just under EUR 0.4 million (previous year: EUR 0.05 million) and was primarily due to a partial exit from the investment in Heliocentris as part of a block trade. Net asset value, which corresponds to IFRS shareholders' equity, amounted to EUR 16.5 million as of 30 June 2013 (previous year: EUR 16.5 million) or EUR 0.88/share (previous year: EUR 0.88/share). The equity ratio improved significantly to over 99% at the end of the reporting period (previous year: 92%). There are no liabilities to banks. Due to investment activities and the reduction in liabilities from refinancing activities, cash and cash equivalents amounted to EUR 1.7 million at the end of the first half of 2013 compared with EUR 4.0 million in the same period of the previous year. Listed securities increased from EUR 3.2 million in the previous year to EUR 4.0 million in the period under review. Following a new investment in ferret go GmbH, bmp media investors AG had a total of 18 investments in its core sector of media and marketing services at the end of the period under review. Two to three new investments are planned for the current financial year. In light of the good development of the portfolio and the strong growth momentum of our investments, we are still forecasting one or two exits, a net profit for the year and a significant improvement in net asset value. The half-yearly report will be published on 30 August 2013 at www.mediainvestors.com.
