Press Release

Collaboration between ElringKlinger and Gebrüder Kufferath AG in the field of exhaust gas purification technology

DGAP-News: ElringKlinger AG / Key word(s): Product Launch19.02.2014 / 13:19---------------------------------------------------------------------Dettingen/Erms/Düren, February 19, 2014 +++ Automotive supplierElringKlinger AG, Dettingen/Erms, has teamed up with technical weavingspecialist Gebrüder Kufferath AG (GKD), Düren, to work on integratedsealing and filtration solutions in the field of exhaust gas recirculation.The two companies have already concluded a strategic cooperation agreementto pursue this project. While GKD, as a manufacturer of industrial mesh products, will be applyingits expertise in the field of filtration media and sieving devices made ofmetal mesh, ElringKlinger will be contributing its specialist knowledge inthe manufacture of sealing solutions and their integration within complexexhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems. Customers will benefit from thecollaborative efforts of both companies through end-to-end access to theirknow-how, fully harmonized processes and large-scale serial production. Asa development partner to the majority of international engine and vehiclemanufacturers, ElringKlinger will be responsible for the overall module andwill incorporate the high-performance low-pressure EGR filters made of 3Dmetal wire mesh within its own specialty exhaust gas sealing systems. Thiswill pave the way for efficient integration of filtration sieves, withintegral gaskets/seals, within the exhaust flow system. Exhaust gas recirculation: core technology for lower emissions In response to stricter emission standards in Europe, the automobileindustry has been forced to press ahead with innovative solutions aimed atfurther reducing CO2 emissions and fuel consumption without impairingengine performance. By 2021, the fleet average has to be reduced from 130g/km to 95 g/km. Increasingly, manufacturers are introducing downsizedengines with turbochargers to achieve this goal. The use of turbochargersand exhaust gas recirculation is of central importance to these downsizingconcepts. At a global level, around 40% of new vehicles are to be equippedwith turbochargers by 2018. At the same time, the Euro 6 standard sets out even stricter requirementsfor the reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust tract. In orderto meet the more stringent limits prescribed for passenger cars as from2014, high-performance systems comprising exhaust gas recirculationtechnologies, diesel oxidation catalysts (DOC), selective catalyticreduction (SCR) units and diesel particulate filters (DPF) will berequired. Low-pressure exhaust gas recirculation in conjunction with highengine loads will play a pivotal role when it comes to achieving future NOxlimits. EGR filters prevent particles produced during the combustion process ororiginating from upstream ceramic exhaust gas filters from entering theturbocharger and damaging components. In combination with the specialtygaskets and seals supplied by ElringKlinger, they protect the engine andturbocharger, in addition to scaling back CO2 emissions as a result of thereduced loss of pressure in the exhaust gas recirculation system. Asregards sales potential, the integrated assemblies are also expected to beparticularly interesting for petrol engines featuring low-pressure exhaustgas recirculation. Customers have already been supplied with the first prototypes. Viabilitytesting for serial production readiness is currently underway. Productionof the first jointly developed components is expected to commence in 2015.ElringKlinger has thus further extended its product range centered aroundturbocharger technology. Initially, the Group is expecting to see a revenuecontribution of EUR 2 to 3 million per annum. Owing to the increasingtechnical importance of exhaust gas recirculation worldwide and thesignificant rise in the number of turbochargers being installed, thecompany believes that its revenue potential in the medium term could be atthe higher end of the single-digit million range.ElringKlinger AG ElringKlinger AG is a development partner and supplier to the internationalautomotive industry.

ElringKlinger AG: Preliminary financial results for FY 2013 characterized - Adverse foreign exchange effects

ElringKlinger AG  / Key word(s): Preliminary Results20.01.2014 18:40Dissemination of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmittedby DGAP - a company of EQS Group AG.The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.---------------------------------------------------------------------------ElringKlinger AG: Preliminary financial results for FY 2013 characterizedby one-time effects - Adverse foreign exchange effects  - Projected one-time gain of EUR 16-18 million following assumption of    control of Japanese joint venture  - Revenue for 2013 up 4.3%; organic growth of 6.1%  - EBIT estimated at EUR 160-162 million; adjusted EBIT expected to be    around EUR 146 million  - Outlook 2014: Revenue growth of 7-9% (5-7% organically),    adjusted EBIT expected to rise to EUR 160-165 millionDettingen/Erms (Germany), January 20, 2014 +++ Automotive supplierElringKlinger will generate a one-time gain of an estimated EUR 16-18million having assumed control of the 50:50 joint venture ElringKlingerMarusan Corporation effective from December 31, 2013. This item will beincluded in its operating result for the 2013 financial year.Based on preliminary key financials, the ElringKlinger Group achieved salesrevenue of EUR 1,176.2 (1,127.2) million. Revenue growth was impacted bythe strength of the euro and came in at 4.3%. Organically, i.e. taking intoaccount the effects of foreign currency translation, revenue increased by6.1% despite the extreme weakness of European vehicle markets and adownturn in new car registrations in Russia, Brazil and India.The marked appreciation of the euro, especially in the second half of 2013,also had an impact on earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), which inthe case of ElringKlinger's business include foreign exchange effects. Theautomotive supplier anticipates that EBIT will amount to EUR 160-162(136.0) million in total. This figure includes the estimated one-time gainof EUR 16-18 million mentioned above. Adjusted for non-recurring items,EBIT rose by around 7% to approx. EUR 146 (136.0) million in 2013, based onpreliminary figures. This was roughly 3% below the original target of atleast EUR 150 million.In 2013, one-off restructuring charges attributable to the French site inNantiat (EUR 1.8 million) as well as exceptional expenses associated withefforts to further penetrate the aftermarket sector (EUR 1.5 million)exerted some downward pressure on earnings. By contrast, the one-off gainfrom the step acquisition of Korean joint venture ElringKlinger Korea Co.,Ltd. (EUR 1.4 million) and, as outlined above, the effects associated withthe assumption of control of ElringKlinger Marusan Corporation (EUR 16-18million) had a positive impact.The adjusted EBIT margin thus improved slightly, up from 12.1% in theprevious year. The company's operating result, which unlike EBIT containsno foreign exchange effects, will be visibly higher.Control obtained over ElringKlinger Marusan as part of expansion in AsiaElringKlinger concluded a contractual agreement with its joint venturepartner as regards the exercise of control over the 50:50 joint ventureElringKlinger Marusan Corporation. As of December 31, 2013, ElringKlingerAG thus has economic control over the Marusan Group. Under IFRS, theassumption of control necessitates full inclusion of the entity within thescope of consolidation of the ElringKlinger Group. As outlined above, thistransition will produce a one-time gain of an estimated EUR 16-18 millionfor 2013. There was no effect on sales in 2013.Having previously been included in the Group's scope of consolidation at aproportionate rate of 50%, the joint venture is to be fully consolidated asfrom 2014. As a result, Group sales revenue will increase by around EUR 25million in 2014 compared to the preceding financial year, while earningsbefore taxes will expand by approx. EUR 1.5 million year on year.Write-downs of intangible assets resulting from purchase price allocationand amounting to an estimated figure of around EUR 1.5 million will have acontrary effect in 2014.The Japanese joint venture is of particular importance to the Asianstrategy adopted by the ElringKlinger Group, especially in the rapidlyexpanding ASEAN region. Including exports, the ElringKlinger Group alreadygenerates more than 20% of its revenue within the Original Equipmentsegment in Asia, a trend that is rising. The Group saw another significantincrease in the number of ongoing development contracts with Asianmanufacturers in 2013.Further revenue and earnings growth expected for 2014 Based on the assumption that global car production will expand by 2 to 3%,the ElringKlinger Group anticipates that its revenue will grow by 5 to 7%organically in 2014, thus outpacing the market as a whole. Fullconsolidation of ElringKlinger Marusan Corporation will additionallycontribute around EUR 25 million in sales. The Group's EBIT margin isexpected to improve slightly compared to 2013. Adjusted for non-recurringitems, EBIT is to rise for the fifth consecutive year, reaching a level ofEUR 160 to 165 (around 146) million.The full announcement of the final, audited results for fiscal 2013 isscheduled for March 28, 2014.20.01.2014 DGAP's Distribution Services include Regulatory Announcements,Financial/Corporate News and Press Releases.Media archive at www.dgap-medientreff.de and www.dgap.de--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Language:     EnglishCompany:      ElringKlinger AG              Max-Eyth-Straße 2              72581 Dettingen/Erms              GermanyPhone:        071 23 / 724-0Fax:          071 23 / 724-9006E-mail:       stephan.haas@elringklinger.deInternet:     www.elringklinger.deISIN:         DE0007856023WKN:          785602Indices:      MDAXListed:       Regulierter Markt in Frankfurt (Prime Standard), Stuttgart;              Freiverkehr in Berlin, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Hannover, München End of Announcement                             DGAP News-Service ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
