UET United Electronic Technology AG (ISIN: DE000A0LBKW6), Eschborn,
releases selected financial figures for the operating business units
SYSTEMS, MANUFACTURING and SERVICE for the second quarter of 2015, from
April 1st to June 30th 2015.

In the period from April to June of the fiscal year 2015, the operating
companies and business areas in the core business of the UET Group
generated consolidated revenues of 17.283 mn EUR.
This represents a revenue increase of 4.880 mn EUR respectively +39% in
comparison to the previous year. The newly consolidated company ALBIS
Technologies AG provides a significant contribution to the growth.

The business areas MANUFACTURING and SERVICE achieved positive results in
the second quarter, even if the business unit MANUFACTURING could not
improve the operating profit based on the corresponding quarter in the
previous year.
Not including consolidation effects, the financial figures are presented as
follows:

The business area SYSTEMS generated revenues of 13.910 mn EUR, ELCON
Systemtechnik accounted for revenues of 8.043 mn EUR (previous year 8.872
mn EUR) and ALBIS Technologies AG of 5.866 mn EUR. Overall, this represents
a growth of 57%.

In consequence of continuing high quarterly investment in research and
development ELCON's EBITDA decreased by 0.666 mn EUR to +0.451 mn EUR. EBIT
amounted to +0.025 mn EUR (previous year 0.814 mn EUR).
ALBIS Technologies AG generated an EBITDA of -1.073 mn EUR and an EBIT of
-1.110 mn EUR. The development of ALBIS' earnings is in line with
expectations, and already considered with respect to terms of pricing, as
well as, structure. ELCON's development and performance is slightly below
expectations.

With regard to the integration of ALBIS in the business area SYSTEMS - with
the objective to generate increasing revenues and earnings - a substantial
part of the planned structural measures have already been implemented. The
significant development expenditure on R&D will be reduced and adjusted in
the business unit SYSTEMS.

The business unit MANUFACTURING reported total revenues of 5.056 mn EUR, 4%
lower compared to last year. LETRON electronic accounted for 2.232 mn EUR
and NewTal 2.824 mn EUR.
EBITDA totaled at 0.084 mn EUR (previous year 0.115 mn EUR), total EBIT was
0.060 mn EUR and decreased by 0.030 mn EUR compared to the last year.
For the third quarter, we expect an earnings increase within the business
unit.

SUCONI Service in the business unit SERVICE reported revenues of 0.443 mn
EUR in the second quarter, which represented a decrease of 25% compared to
the same period last year and is a result of customer and project focus.
Despite lower revenues, both EBITDA and EBIT could be improved by 0.013 mn
EUR over the previous year and amounted to 0.019 mn EUR.

In the third quarter, the investment and expenditure on facilities, product
and market development remain at a high level, but will be reduced and
adjusted beginning at the end of the quarter.
At the end of the third quarter, we expect the first time at ALBIS will
break even.
Overall, we expect the earnings situation is less than in the same period
last year.

The reported financial figures do not include consolidation effects of
existing non operating UET Holding companies. Extended full consolidated
financials will be reported within the half-year report 2015, which will be
released on September 17th.
