30.07.2009

Karlsruhe, July 30, 2009. Kizoo AG (ISIN: DE000CMBT111), Karlsruhe, published
its results for the first half-year 2009 today. The second quarter and the
first half-year 2009 developed as planned in operating terms on a significantly
lower cost level compared to prior year. The result was considerably impacted
by a court settlement with a former asset manager of the company who has
undertaken to pay damages in a total amount of EUR 3.3 million under litigation
which had been pending since 2003. This resulted in other operating income
which will be available as liquid assets during the third quarter.

When including this income unrelated to the accounting period, earnings before
interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted on a Group level during the reporting period
Q2/2009 to EUR 2.3 million (Q2/2008: EUR -1.3 million). For Q2/09 the earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) amounted to EUR
2.4 million (Q2/08: EUR -1.1 million) with scheduled depreciations and
amortizations in the amount of EUR 0.1 million.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2009 the investment of cash and cash
equivalents and other securities generated a positive financial result of EUR
0.4 million (Q2/08: EUR 12.1 million including profit from share sales during
that quarter). The result from continued business lines totaled EUR 2.7 million
(Q2/08: EUR 10.8 million). Furthermore, the result from the discontinued
business lines "Real Estate" and "Data Center" in the amount of EUR -0.4
million (Q2/2008: EUR -0.4 million) needs to be taken into account.
Consequently, the result for the period of the second quarter 2009 amounts to
EUR 2.3 million (Q2/2008: EUR 10.4 million). The comprehensive income of the
Group to be reported in accordance with IAS 1 since this quarter, which
includes changes in the fair value of financial assets held, amounts for the
second quarter to EUR 50.4 million (Q2/2008: EUR -21.5 million).

At the end of June the shareholders' equity of the company amounted to EUR 255.0
million and was significantly above the level of March 31, 2009 (EUR 204.5
million). On the reporting date June 30, 2009 the equity ratio was hence 95.7%.
