The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------* Consolidated sales revenues of EUR 98.9 million (previous year: EUR 120.8 million)* EBIT of EUR 11.1 million (previous year: EUR 9.7 million)* Order backlog of EUR 90.0 million (previous year: EUR 181.2 million)* Forecast: sales revenues for 2009 of around EUR 145 million, operating EBIT at EUR 15 - 17 million(Wettenberg, November 6, 2009) PVA TePla AG, Wettenberg, manufacturerof vacuum and high-temperature systems, generated sales revenues ofEUR 98.9 million in the first nine months of 2009 (previous year: EUR120.8 million). Operating EBIT improved significantly year-on-yearfrom EUR 9.7 million to EUR 11.1 million.Consolidated sales revenues declined on the same period of theprevious year due current orders being rescheduled to the next twoquarters. The Industrial Systems division noted sales revenues of EUR30.8 million, below the level for the previous year (EUR37.0 million). Following the scheduled completion of a major orderwith Siltronic Samsung to supply crystal growing systems, theSemiconductor Systems division posted sales revenues of EUR25.1 million (previous year: EUR 55.3 million). At EUR 43.1 million(previous year: EUR 28.6 million), the Solar Systems division was theGroup's strongest in terms of sales revenues.In spite of the drop in sales revenues, operating EBIT improvedsignificantly year-on-year to EUR 11.1 million (previous year: EUR9.7 million). The EBIT margin is therefore 11.2%. Consolidated netprofit amounted to EUR 7.3 million (previous year: EUR 6.5 million)In the first three quarters of 2009, the order situation of the PVATePla Group was substantially weaker than in the same period of 2008- as was also the case for its main competitors - on account of thegeneral market developments. Owing to various factors, thisdevelopment is due to the investment restraint among customers on ourkey markets. Incoming orders came to EUR 39.6 million (previous year:EUR 169.0 million). Broken down by division, incoming orders inIndustrial Systems in the reporting period were significantly lowerthan the previous year's high figure of EUR 36.9 million at EUR14.5 million. The current economic crisis is particularly affectingthe willingness to make investments in the hard metal market withinthis division. The Semiconductor Systems division generated incomingorders of EUR 15.2 million (previous year: EUR 32.1 million). Demandfor float-zone systems from the PVA TePla branch in Denmark played amajor role in this at the start of the fiscal year. Incoming ordersfor the Solar Systems division amounted to EUR 9.9 million (previousyear: EUR 100.0 million). Negotiations with customers in this area inparticular have reached such an advanced stage that significantorders can now be expected in the next few months.At EUR 21.8 million, the operating cash flow in the first threequarters was significantly higher than the previous year's figure ofEUR 16.1 million. Cash and cash equivalents also increasedconsiderably year-on-year from EUR 15.7 million to EUR 21.6 million.Given the shifts in sales revenues mentioned above from the currentfiscal year to 2010, PVA TePla is assuming consolidated salesrevenues for fiscal 2009 as a whole of EUR 145 million. In line withthis, part of the result will be shifted to the following year andtherefore the operating result (EBIT) in 2009 is expected to liebetween EUR 15 million and EUR 17 million.For further information, please contact:Dr. Gert FisahnInvestor RelationsPVA TePla AGPhone: +49(0)641/68690-400gert.fisahn(at)pvatepla.comwww.pvatepla.comhttp://hugin.info/130372/R/1353121/327705.pdf --- End of Message ---PVA TePla AGIm Westpark 10 - 12 Wettenberg GermanyWKN: 746100; ISIN: DE0007461006; Index: CDAX, GEX, Prime All Share;Listed: Prime Standard in Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse, Freiverkehr in Börse Stuttgart, Freiverkehr in Niedersächsische Börse zu Hannover, Freiverkehr in Börse Berlin, Freiverkehr in Hanseatische Wertpapierbörse zu Hamburg, Freiverkehr in Börse Düsseldorf, Regulierter Markt in Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse;
