2009-10 Revenues               40.41       40.06       + 1%

Aedian announced FY2009-10 revenues of EUR 40.4m, up 1% year-onyear.

* Trading
Organic growth accelerated in the fourth quarter (April-June 2010),
compared to the fourth quarter of the previous year (April-June 2009), to 10%.

This strong performance resulted from the combination of :
  -   Improving business indicators: the rate of inter-contract downtime came 
      to 5% in Q4 (against 6% in the same quarter of the previous year) and the
      average headcount rose by 3%;
  -   A positive calendar effect, as the number of working days was 3% higher
      than in the same quarter of the previous year.
  
Looking at the full-year picture, the 1% growth, despite a still negative rate
effect and an ongoing recession, was the first tangible evidence of the 
benefits generated by simplification of the organisation last year. The 
progress was particularly notable in the consultancy business, which was 
nevertheless strongly affected by the economic downturn: AEDIAN derived 41% of 
its total FY2009-10 revenues and won market share in this business.

* Outlook
In view of the company's performance, we expect to reach our target of 
improving the operating margin in the second half and in the year ending on 
30 June 2010. We will release our financial results on 28 September 2010.
