Sales (TEUR)                            36,481         25,499      + 43 %
EBITDA (TEUR)                            7,382          4,770      + 55 %
EBIT (TEUR)                              4,384          2,396      + 83 %
EBT (TEUR)                               3,821          1,292     + 196 %
Net Result (TEUR)                        2,675            609     + 339 %

</pre>

The new record numbers for the first half year of 2011 also confirmed the
excellent results of the first quarter. With 20.2 % EBITDA and 12.0 % EBIT
Impreglon reached resp. exceeded the ambitious corporate earning goals
despite the seasonal low number of production days in the second quarter.
Also to mention is the strong increase for earnings per share from 0.10 to
0.34 Euro in comparison to 2010. On the basis of identical numbers of
shares the earnings for 2011 would have risen to 0.44 Euro. Therefore the
dividend increase for 2011 proposed by management should become reality.

The strong increase in sales in combination with convincing earnings is
mainly due to continuous demand in the two business sections OEM and
Automotive. The Aftermarket (maintenance and repair for production
companies) is also developing slowly but steady as a result of sales to the
OEM section. The improved utilization of production capacities, the
start-up of new technologies and the latest acquisition of a new production
site in the USA should help the strong performance to continue in the
second half of 2011.
