(JULY 27, 2001) -- Brokat AG (Nasdaq: BROA; Neuer Market: BRJ) today announced that it expects to report revenues of approximately 28 million Euro for the second quarter of 2001. The Company expects to report pro-forma results (EBITDASO, Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Stock Options) of (40) million Euro or (1.09) Euro per share. Gross earnings are expected to be 8.5 million Euro resulting in a gross margin of 30 per cent. The expected results are due largely to a negative overall economic climate and slower investment cycles by potential customers. Additionally, with the adjustment of technology valuations and the uncertain market outlook, Brokat also expects to recognize special charges in compliance with US-GAAP in the total amount of approximately 735 million Euro. These non-cash charges include goodwill depreciations relating to the acquisitions of Blaze Software and GemStone Systems. Including the write-downs, Brokat expects to report net loss of approximately (825) million Euro or (22.31) Euro per share for the second quarter. The company expects its cash position at the end of 30 June 2001 to be in excess of 41 million Euro. Pursuant to the reorganization of the company into three business units as announced at the shareholders' meeting on 21 June 2001, Angelo Maestrini, the Company's current Chief Operating Officer (COO), will leave the company on his own request effective 31 August 2001. The COO position will be eliminated in the new organizational structure, and the Brokat management board will now comprise four members. Maestrini will continue to assist the company as a consultant in the mobile business area and the ongoing restructuring process. Until the restructuring of the Company has been completed and market visibility has improved, Brokat is not in a position to provide meaningful guidance for the Company's financial performance for the third quarter or full fiscal year. Brokat is scheduled to report complete financial results for the second quarter on 7 August 2001.
