Hamburg, November 14, 2011 - UMS United Medical Systems International AG
(UMS/ ISIN DE0005493654) is reporting noticeable improvement for the third
quarter of 2011 compared to the previous quarter. Total revenues came to
EUR 9.7 million, following EUR 9.4 million in the second quarter of this
year. Compared to the same quarter a year ago, like-for-like sales climbed
EUR 0.5 million, or 5%.
Earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter of the current year came to

Company reported EPS of EUR 0.16 in the third quarter of 2010. Adjusted for
exchange rate differences, earnings in the prior-year period were EUR 0.15
per share.
'After a difficult second quarter, we succeeded in meeting our revenue and
earnings targets in the third quarter. We made excellent progress in the
integration of our acquired competitor Mobile Biopsy. We are close to
operating at full capacity in our mobile radiology services business,'
explains Jorgen Madsen, Chairman of the Management Board of UMS AG. Work is
being done on a host of other strategic initiatives to strengthen the UMS
Group in 2012. These include the development of new medical applications
for the company's mobile service offering and expansion into other regional
markets in South America.
For the full year 2011, the company is confirming its revised earnings
target of between EUR 0.45 and EUR 0.55 per share. UMS AG intends to
maintain its dividend policy for fiscal year 2011, provided that the
USD/EUR exchange rate does not substantially deteriorate from its current
level.
