Garbsen/Germany, 19. November 2007. The cumulative sales for the Group in the
first three quarters 2007 are slightly up at 27.7 million EUR. In Q3 the growth
rate was 5%. The especially dynamic development in the three growth segments of
Solar, MID and Plastic Welding is reflected in a 15% improvement to orders
received. Within the LPKF Group, orders received and orders in hand continue at
record levels. Nonetheless, the development of sales is below the management's
expectations after the first nine months. Since the start of the year a number
of influences, including the restrictive import policy of the Chinese
government, has resulted in a substantial lengthening of the gap between
receipt of order and delivery. In addition, shifts in sales have taken place
due to delayed delivery call-offs by customers hoping for a more favourable
Euro exchange rate. The good order situation, with orders in hand up by 31% at
9.9 million EUR, is the basis for a strong fourth quarter 2007. Therefore, the
Board of Managing Directors expects an overall turnover of 42 million EUR for
the ongoing financial year.

The shifts in turnover are also  apparent  when  comparing  results,  since  the
majority of performance has been rendered and  a  substantial  volume  of  costs
incurred without corresponding sales. As  a  consequence,  operating  profit  is
down slightly year-on-year  at  3.9  million  EUR.  Thanks  to  a  substantially
reduced tax load ratio and reduced minority  shareholdings,  profits  after  tax
rose by 20% to 2.7 million EUR. Profits  per  share  rose  correspondingly  from
0.21 EUR to 0.25 EUR.

In the Rapid Prototyping segment, business developed very satisfactorily with a
growth of 25%. In contrast, the segments of PCB Processing and Stencil
underwent weak sales development. In StencilLasers the Group is looking forward
to new impetus following the introduction in early November of a new high
performance model. A number of orders for the new high-end StencilLaser are
already in hand.

LPKF SolarQuipment GmbH reports the conclusion of a contract for laser
equipment for structuring thin layer solar cells with a new customer. The order
volume is of approx. 2 million EUR. The equipment is to be delivered during
2008. During financial year 2007 sales in this segment will account for approx.
2 million EUR.

Outlook

The strong growth in the segments MID, Plastic Welding and Solar in conjunction
with continued internationalisation means the LPKF Group is looking forward to
excellent development opportunities. Together with stable developments in the
established segments of Rapid Prototyping, Stencil and PCB Processing, the
Board wants to achieve overall sales of 50 million EUR in 2008. LPKF Laser &
Electronics AG intends to raise sales to 68 million EUR by 2010 with an EBIT
margin of 13 - 16%. The share of growth segments is to account for 50 %.
