SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner AG Raises its Revenue Forecast with Generally Balanced Operating Result (EBIT) for the 2017 Fiscal Year

Heidelberg, Germany, October 24, 2017 - SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner AG (WKN: 720370, ISIN: DE0007203705) is updating its forecasts for the development of the Group's revenue and financial performance for the 2017 fiscal year that were first announced in the Annual Report for the 2016 fiscal year and were recently confirmed in the Half-year Financial Report 2017.

Due to the unchanged positive situation for orders and projects, as well as Group revenue of EUR 81.0 million at the end of the first nine months of the current fiscal year, the Executive Board is increasing the forecast for Group revenue to around EUR 120 million for the current fiscal year (previous revenue forecast: EUR 110 million). In addition, the Executive Board is forecasting a generally balanced operating result (EBIT) for the 2017 fiscal year (previous earnings forecast: EBIT margin of 7% to 12% for the 2017 fiscal year). This is due to the earnings performance in the first nine months of the 2017 fiscal year that was heavily impacted by one-time extraordinary expenses and investments in growth, as well as lower than expected revenue from software licensing.

There are already signs of significantly increasing demand for the coming years for the SNP Group's services and software solutions. The company is therefore currently making investments in order to prepare for the foreseeable worldwide boom resulting from digital transformation, and thereby to be counted among the notable winners from this development.

An unchanged goal of the SNP Group is to establish the global standard for software-based data transformation. The Executive Board is therefore pursuing the principle goal of consistent revenue growth for the Group as a whole.

The interim Q3 2017 report of the SNP Group will be published on October 27, 2017.
