The Jungheinrich Group closed the 2016 financial year
successfully, posting significant increases in all key performance
indicators. The main growth drivers were new truck business and the
'Logistics Systems' Division. New record highs were achieved in terms
of incoming orders, net sales, production and all earnings figures.
The key performance indicators were improved considerably in the
first two months of the year underway as well.

Hans-Georg Frey, Chairman of the Board of Management of
Jungheinrich AG: "We stayed our strong course for growth in 2016. For
the first time, we surpassed the EUR 3 billion mark in terms of both
net sales and incoming orders. We outgrew our peer group and expanded
our share of the global market. Jungheinrich is right on track
towards achieving its strategic goal for 2020.

In 2016, the Group's earnings were boosted to EUR 154 million.
Jungheinrich has steadily increased its earnings for the benefit of
its shareholders in recent years. The good level of incoming orders
by the end of last year has been maintained this year and gives us a
positive outlook on the first six months underway. Based on the good
figures posted in the first two months of the current year, if the
developments witnessed in 2017 thus far continue, we should be able
to achieve incoming orders of between EUR 3.4 and EUR 3.5 billion and
consolidated net sales in the range of EUR 3.3 to EUR 3.4 billion.
Based on our assessments, EBIT for the current fiscal year should
total between EUR 250 and EUR 260 million."
