Montabaur, August 4, 2012. Sedo Holding AG, a listed company in which
United Internet AG holds a 79.45% shareholding, announced on August 3, 2012
that the company had recognized non-cash-effective extraordinary impairment
charges for goodwill of EUR 60.3 million. These write-downs were
necessitated in particular by a significant change in expectations with
regard to the company's Domain Parking business.
Due to consolidation of the Sedo figures, United Internet will disclose
non-cash-effective extraordinary impairment of EUR 46.3 million in its
consolidated financial statements.
The other business divisions of United Internet AG are developing as
planned. The figures for the 1st half of 2012 will be published in the
course of financial reporting on August 14, 2012.
