euro adhoc: init innovation in traffic systems AG
quarterly or semiannual financial statement
init continues on record course - sales and earnings above plan

  Disclosure announcement transmitted by euro adhoc. The issuer is responsible
  for the content of this announcement.
6-month report
07.08.2007
init innovation in traffic systems AG continued its growth trend in 
the second quarter to finish above plan in both sales and earnings at
the end of the first six months.
From April to June 2007 the Karlsruhe-based telematics specialist 
generated revenues of 11.7 mio. EUR (2006: 10.6 mio. EUR) topping the
prior-year record level. At the end of the first half of 2007, init 
sales totaled 19.4 mio. EUR, which corresponds to an increase of 16.2
percent on the previous year (16.7 mio. EUR). The gross operating 
result as at the end of June thus also increased and stood at 6.7 
mio. EUR (2006: 6.3 mio. EUR).
Due to a significant increase in engineering services, for a number 
of large-scale projects which are due to affect income in the latter 
half of the year, and the currency losses resulting from falling US 
dollar prices, the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) amounted
to 1.2 mio. EUR (2006: 2.3 mio. EUR). The group´s period surplus 
aggregated 0.8 mio. EUR (2006: 1.6 mio. EUR), which corresponds to 
earnings per share of 0.09 EUR (2006: 0.17 EUR).
Traditionally, group sales at init spread unevenly throughout the 
fiscal year. While the first two quarters usually prove weakest in 
terms of revenues, the lion share is generated in the fourth quarter.
Consequently, the operating result after the first six months 
generally tends to be relatively low. In the current fiscal year, 
however, sales developed above plan to finish yet again with a 
positive result.
In the latter half of the year, init anticipates a spurt in growth 
with above-average earnings due to the commencement of deliveries for
two major projects. The order situation at init also continues to be 
highly satisfactory. As at the end of June, the order volume totaled 
69.1 mio. EUR (2006: 57.1 mio. EUR). In the third quarter, the group 
expects further large-scale projects to materialize. Against this 
background, the Managing Board has confirmed its growth forecast for 
2007 with revenues of some 45 mio. EUR (2006: 36.3 mio. EUR) and 
earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of 6.5 mio. EUR (2006: 5.6 
mio. EUR).
