Ad-hoc

Bad Homburg, Germany - Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA ('the
Company'), the world's largest provider of dialysis products and services,
today announced revised outlook for revenue to be approximately 1.0% to
2.0% below the US-Dollar 13 billion benchmark. The impact on the revenue is
predominately due to significant weakening of the Euro and other currencies
against the US-Dollar in the fourth quarter of 2011. Nevertheless, the
Company continues to confirm its earnings after tax target in US-Dollar
although expectations are that the net income attributable to the Company
will be at the low end of the target range of US-Dollar 1,070-1,090 m,
principally due to the additional one-time costs incurred in 2011 related
to acquisitions.
