RENK:  Financial statements as of Dec. 31, 2008

RENK rises to half a billion euros

The RENK Group closed fiscal 2008 with the best performance in its history.
Operating profit climbed 18 percent to a record EUR80 million. The sales
uptrend of previous years continued in 2008, too. RENK recorded another
sales boost, from EUR430 million to EUR527 million, to which all four
divisions contributed. Despite the weaker market already evident in late
2008, order intake at EUR443 million again mounted slightly.

In view of flagging market momentum we expect 2009 to show a decline in new
orders that, anticipating a slight drop in sales, will also weigh on
operating profit.
