The MAUSER Group achieved pro forma revenues of EUR 955m in 2007, which correspond to an increase of approx. 3% compared to 2006 on a like-for-like basis. The increase is negatively distorted due to the devaluation of the US-Dollar compared to the Euro. Adjusted for this devaluation, MAUSER achieved an increase of pro forma revenues by around 7%, which was especially driven by significant revenue increases in Asia, South-America and Europe.

The Group was successful in achieving volume growth in all divisions.

These results are pro forma for all acquisitions.
