secunet Security Networks AG: Forecast for the 2016 Financial Year raised
[Essen, 19 July 2016] According to preliminary calculations, secunet
Security Networks AG (ISIN DE0007276503, WKN 727650) achieved revenues of
43 million Euros in the first six months of 2016 (previous year: 35.3
million Euros), and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of over 2
million Euros (previous year: 0.3 million Euros). Within the figures for

company's Executive Board is increasing its forecast for the 2016 fiscal
year to revenues of around 94 million Euros and an EBIT of around 9 million
Euros.
