Notes on the quarterly results: 

Sales and performance fell short of expectations in the first three months. This
is mainly attributed by the management to clients postponing their investment
decisions.

Sales declined in the StencilLaser and PCB Laser Cutting segments. The
continuing weakness of the dollar is impacting business in Asia and depressing
the amount of investment by clients. 

Business in the 3D-MID segment was positive. The LDS method for the production
of three dimensional circuit carriers successfully made the transition into mass
production. Rapid PCB Prototyping generated a strong growth of 14,9%. The Laser
Plastic-Welding segment was also very successful but was not able to improve
significantly in Q1 2007 on the unusually strong performance in the same quarter
last year. 

Outlook

Management forecast much better sales figures in the second quarter on the
strength of the very high level of orders received in April and May and adhere
to the sales forecast of 45 million EUR for the ongoing financial year. The
continuing shift in sales within the Laser segment towards 3D-MID,
Plastic-Welding and Solar highlights the planned development of the company
towards systems that can be used in mass production. The management consider
these products to have the best potential for growth in the future.
