Munich, February 09, 2009. At the AGM on April 30, 2009 the Management and
Supervisory Boards of ATOSS Software AG intend to propose a dividend of EUR
0.44 per share, representing a dividend yield of around 6 percent for the
highly successful financial year 2008. In taking this step, ATOSS is
remaining true to its dividend policy first declared at the start of 2003
by allowing shareholders to continue to share in large measure in the
profits the company has generated. This follows on from previous dividends
of EUR 0.31 for 2007 and EUR 0.24 for 2006.
Development in business remains highly positive; order situation excellent
Following the excellent development in financial year 2008 as a whole and
indeed in the fourth quarter of 2008, recent weeks have seen a further
substantial improvement in the order situation. The excellent order book
reinforces the forecast made on January 30, 2008 for the current financial
year. The Manage-ment Board expects sales and results to continue at the
record level achieved last year.
