Ströer SE: Ströer resolves conversion into partnership limited by shares and confirms planned dividend increase for 2015 - Seite 2

registering ongoing strong momentum in revenue and are therefore able to
confirm our full-year guidance for 2015 and 2016. We also anticipate three
to four smaller acquisitions this year which should roughly contribute a
combined EUR 25 million to revenue in 2016."

The closing of the acquisitions of t-online.de and InteractiveMedia is
scheduled for November 2, 2015. A mid-range single-digit million
contribution is expected in the current fiscal year and Ströer expects to
see a boost for the Christmas business. Consolidated revenue in the portal
business of t-online.de and the online marketer InteractiveMedia will total
more than EUR 100 million in 2015. The expected consolidated contribution
of both companies to Ströer SE's operational EBITDA in fiscal year 2016
amounts to around EUR 35 million before synergies, which are expected to be
considerable. After the capital increase, earnings per share will already
increase by more than 5% before synergies in 2016. This creates additional
financial scope for higher dividends and value-generating investments.

In July 2015, Ströer paid out an increased dividend of EUR 0.40 per
dividend-bearing share for fiscal year 2014. Through this four-fold
dividend increase compared to fiscal year 2013, the company enabled
shareholders to perceivably participate in the company's success. As
announced in spring Ströer plans to continue its sustainable dividend
policy of paying out 25% to 50% of adjusted operating profit in fiscal year
2015. Udo Müller, CEO of Ströer SE, announced at today's Extraordinary
General Meeting in Cologne that the Supervisory Board and Board of
Management plan to implement this dividend policy based on the current
business development, by proposing a 50% increase in the dividend to EUR
0.60 per dividend-bearing share to the shareholders at next year's Ordinary
General Meeting.
