PRESS RELEASE

COMPUTERLINKS earnings forecast for 2007 -
earnings per share: 1.60 Euro

Munich, 12.11.2007 - The COMPUTERLINKS Group continues on its growth path
after 9 months. Against this background the Management Board expects turnover
of at least 465 million Euro for the whole year 2007. The EBITDA target stands
at 19 million Euro. This will result in earnings per share of at least 1.60
Euro for the whole year 2007.

Group turnover increased by 17.6% to 313.4 million Euro in the first 9 months
of the current financial year (same period last year: 266.5 million Euro).
EBITDA rose in the first 3 quarters of 2007 from 9.5 million Euro in the same
period last year to 11.0 million Euro (+ 15.9%). Net income for the period
increased by 12,6 % to 6.2 million Euro in the first 9 months of 2007 (same
period last year: 5.5 million Euro) and earnings per share rose from 0.82 Euro
to 0.92 Euro (+ 12.5%).

Group turnover for the 3rd quarter of 2007 rose by 21.7% to 108.3 million Euro
(3rd quarter of 2006: 88.9 million Euro). Gross margins stood at 14.1% in the
3rd quarter of 2007. The sustained stabilisation of gross margins over the
last 2 years at the level of 14% means that turnover and profitability have
grown almost in tandem. EBITDA improved in the 3rd quarter of 2007 by 16.7%
to 3.7 million Euro (3rd quarter of 2006: 3.2 million Euro). Net income for
the period for the 3rd quarter of 2007 was 2.1 million Euro compared to 1.8
million Euro in the 3rd quarter of 2006 (+ 15.4%). This resulted in an
increase in the earnings per share of 15.3% to 0.31 Euro (3rd quarter of 2006:
0.27 Euro).

The COMPUTERLINKS Group feels it is well positioned for business at the end of
the year. The strong 4th quarter as experienced in previous years should again
make an enhanced contribution to the already positive trend this year.
