Letter to the shareholdersLetter to the shareholdersDear shareholders,The Balda Group’s performance in the first quarter of 2011 was a slight improvement on the previous year, although we are notsatisfied with the performance of our operational business. However, other important projects are making very positive progress.In the first three months of the current financial year your company has achieved sales revenue slightly above the previousyear’s level of 26.7 million euros. The Group’s EBIT was also an improvement on the previous year’s figure at minus 1.9 mil-lion euros. These key figures were in line with our expectations. The EBT was plus 4.7 million euros thanks to the positivefinancial earnings.The Electronic Products and Medical segments achieved their goals in the first quarter. The MobileCom segment did notmeet our expectations though. After evaluating a report prepared by external experts on the mobile phone market and thestatus and prospects of the MobileCom segment, we are taking some firm measures. The Balda Group is looking for a stra-tegic partner for a joint venture for the two production plants in Beijing. The initial priority is to better utilise production capa-city and optimise the cost situation in Beijing. The segment now has a clear outlook.Just as clear is our position with regard to our interest in the touchscreen manufacturer TPK. The Board of Directors is plan-ning to sell the shares Balda holds in the touchscreen manufacturer TPK in a favourable market environment and to pay outas much of the proceeds as possible as dividends. The first lock-up, which was recently extended with the agreement of allof TPK’s major shareholders to the end of July in order to issue a convertible bond for without any disruptions, currentlyappears to be benefiting Balda’s shareholders. TPK’s share price has remained at a very high level. The lock-up for the saleof the second half of our 16.1 percent holding in TPK will end as originally planned at the end of October 2011. We will, aswe have stated on several occasions, do everything in order to pay a reasonable dividend.And you might ask yourself: “What will happen next? What would happen to Balda after the MobileCom segment has beennewly realigned and TPK shares have been sold? Will Balda be carved up and have its assets stripped?” No. As we havecommunicated on several occasions, we are planning to expand the Medical segment. This may involve taking over a compa-ny in a product area which is related or close to the Medical segment. The due diligence phase in the acquisition processwill soon be completed. The Board of Directors will in this half-year make a submission to the Supervisory Board for deci-sion. It remains the case that the Balda Group would be able to finance a takeover also without using funds from the pro-ceeds of any sale of shares in TPK. Balda AG has been free of bank debt since the autumn of 2009 following the successfulmeasures taken to financially restructure the company.What are the prospects for the operational business in 2011? We hereby confirm the forecast in the Annual Report 2010 ofMarch 2011. It concerns only the business of the four segments currently active in the Group. Electronic Products is makingprogress. We are closing in on the envisaged positive result. The Medical segment is performing profitably as planned. Mobile-Com is pursuing the options presented above. Central Services is supporting the operational segments. The Balda Group isexpecting sales revenue in the 2011 financial year to be at the previous year’s level and a slightly positive EBIT.I would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your confidence. I also take this opportunity on behalf of the Supervisory Boardto ensure you that we will do everything to secure the existence of your company and to increase the value of Balda AG.YoursRainer MohrSole Member of the Board of Directors 3

Since the sale of the shares in Balda Motherson Solution India Ltd. at the end of May 2010, the Group has reported the former India segment in discontinued operations. This report accordingly shows adjusted comparison figures where necessary. This interim report is based primarily on the results of the following operating companies: Balda Medical GmbH & Co. KG Balda Solutions Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. Balda Solutions Beijing Ltd. Balda Solutions USA Inc.4

Quarterly Report I/2011Interim management reportMacroeconomic developmentGlobal economy recoveringThe global economy has noticeably recovered from the crisis. Impetus from the expansive monetary policy of many industrialcountries and the growth in international trade have had a lasting positive effect on the global economy, in particular in Asia,other newly industrialising countries and parts of the European Union. The USA’s economy has also gathered momentum.On the other hand, the bailing out of the financial system, in particular in Europe in Greece, Ireland and Portugal as well asin the USA, has resulted in a further increase in national debt. Most recently political unrest in North Africa and the MiddleEast and the earthquake disaster in Japan have contributed towards an on the whole unstable economic environment. Theeconomists of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) are expecting growth in the G7 coun-tries of Germany, France, Great Britain, Italy, USA, Japan and Canada to be around 2.9 percent in the period under review.The newly industrialising countries remain the engine for global growth.EurozoneEurope is continuing to recover from the recession of 2009. According to Eurostat, gross domestic product rose by 0.3 per-cent in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the previous quarter. However, growth in the eurozone was not homogeneous.The debt crisis in some euro countries resulted in heterogeneous economic development in the European Union. While theeconomy continued to grow in particular in Germany and France, the rate of growth in southern European countries such asSpain, Italy, Portugal and Greece remained poor. For example, in 2010 Greece had at 10.6 percent a higher budget deficit inrelation to GDP than expected (9.4 percent).Eurostat estimated the rising annual inflation rate in EMU states in March 2011 to be 2.6 percent (February 2011: 2.4 per-cent). The unemployment rate in EMU states in February 2011 was 9.9 percent (January 2011: 10 percent).GermanyAccording to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Germany’s GDP grew by 3.7 percent inthe first quarter of 2011. Impetus was provided in particular by strong demand for exports. Private consumption also made apositive contribution to growth in terms of the pleasing development in the labour market. The unemployment rate was 7.6percent at the end of the period under review. In December 2010 the unemployment rate was 7.2 percent. According to initi-al calculations by the Federal Statistical Office, the inflation rate rose by 2.1 percent in March 2011 compared to the sameperiod in 2010. In spite of rising prices, three quarters of Germans described their economic situation in a recent survey bythe ARD broadcasting network as good or very good.USAThe economic upswing also continued in the USA. The USA is now producing just as much as before the crisis, but with lesspeople employed. This development has resulted in a rise in productivity and corporate profits. In the fourth quarter of 2010the US economy grew by 3.2 percent compared to the previous quarter. Private consumption and exports developed particu-larly strongly, while high stock levels slowed down the rate of growth. Economists are expecting that GDP growth will be bet-ween 2.5 and 3 percent in the first quarter of 2011. The USA’s trade balance deficit was around 46.3 billion US dollars inJanuary 2011. The unemployment rate in the USA fell to 8.8 percent in March 2011 from 8.9 percent in February 2011. 5

Quarterly Report I/2011 China China’s GDP grew by around 9.7 percent in the first quarter of 2011 (previous year: 10.3 percent). On average, analysts had expected growth of 9.5 percent compared to the previous year. Important early indicators have deteriorated in China in the last few months. While an economic slowdown has been observed in the industrial sector, consumption continues to develop strongly. In March the inflation rate was around 4 percent (previous year: 2.4 percent). China’s trade balance was negative in the first three months of 2011. According to the Chinese customs authorities, China recorded its first trade deficit in the period under review since the start of 2004. Sector situation MobileCom The global mobile phone market continues to grow. In particular multifunctional mobile phones (smartphones) recorded high growth rates in the first quarter of 2011. According to the market research institute Gartner, the number of mobile phones sold in the first three months of 2011 rose to around 372 million units. This equates to growth of about 20 percent compared to the first quarter of 2010. Nokia remains the market leader among mobile phone manufacturers despite a fall in its market share. The Finnish Group sold around 28.3 million smartphones in the fourth quarter of 2010 and had a market share of around 28 percent (first quarter of 2010: around 38.6 percent). The increasing popularity of the multifunctional mobile phones also had an impact in the first quarter of 2011 on sales of low-price phones. Low tariffs for internet use and new smartphone applications reinfor- ced this development. Google’s Android is continuing to gain market share among mobile phone software suppliers. Google’s operating system will continue to grow strongly according to market observers. Electronic Products In Germany the economic recovery is spreading increasingly to business and the domestic electronics industry. According to the trade association BITKOM, around 78 percent of high-tech companies in Germany recorded an increase in sales in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the same quarter of the previous year. The business climate index reached a new annual high in the electronics industry in the first three months of 2011. According to experts, in addition to the good economic situation, new user-friendly devices such as tablet PCs contributed towards the positive development. A recent survey by the trade association BITKOM also revealed that companies considered their prospects for the current financial year to be positive. Medical Following growth of 9.4 percent in 2010, Germany’s medical technology sector continued its upward trend in the first quarter of 2011. According to the trade association SPECTARIS, domestic manufacturers of medical equipment will generate sales growth of 8 percent compared to the previous year. Sentiment indicators among medical technology manufacturers rose according to a recent survey by SPECTARIS to a new record high. A rise in domestic demand and an increase in orders from abroad are responsible for this positive development. According to experts, the positive trend will continue in future due to the innovative strength of German medical technology manufacturers, which is recognised worldwide.6

Quarterly Report I/2011Business developmentSales situationThe Balda Group generated sales of 26.7 million euros (pre- Group sales January to Marchvious year: 26.0 million euros not including India) in the first (in mio. euros)three months of the 2011 financial year. This is a slight in- 2011 26.7crease of 0.7 million euros or 2.8 percent. Sales revenue 2010 26.0therefore developed in line with expectations in the firstquarter of 2011. The Medical segment slightly exceeded its 0 10 20 30sales target. In the period under review pressure on prices as a result of intense competition among suppliers of mobile phonemanufacturers and electronics producers resulted in stagnant sales and lower margins.Earnings situationIn particular the MobileCom and Electronic Products segments had a negative impact on the Group’s EBIT in the first quar-ter of 2011. Overall the Balda Group recorded an EBIT of minus 1.9 million euros in the period under review (same periodfor the previous year: minus 2.3 million euros).The Balda Group achieved positive financial earnings of 6.6 million euros in the first quarter of 2011 following 4.3 millioneuros in the previous year. An increase in interest income of around 0.8 million euros and currency gains of 6.8 millioneuros relating to internal financing are responsible for this. The item earnings of associated companies, which relates to theshareholding in TPK, is no longer reported after the loss of significant influence and after change in valuation method inOctober 2010 (previous year: 5.3 million euros).These financial earnings have more than compensated for Sales by segment January to Marchthe negative EBIT and resulted in an EBT of 4.7 million (in mio. euros) = 2011 = 2010euros. In the same period for the previous year the EBT was MobileCom 13.22.0 million euros. 14.2 Electronic 6.6The Balda Group recorded a consolidated profit after the Products 5.5first three months of the current financial year of 4.4 million Medical 6.8euros compared to 1.5 million euros in the same period of 6.2the previous year.

Sales revenue for the period under review included a higher share of purchased parts andtherefore a lower share of value-added. Although the segment further reduced its fixed costs, the low utilisation of capacitysqueezed margins in the first two months of the year. In March MobileCom achieved a positive EBIT. Overall the segmentrecorded an EBIT of minus 0.9 million euros in the first quarter following a slightly positive EBIT in the previous year.Electronic ProductsThe Electronic Products segment increased its sales revenue significantly in the first quarter by 19.8 percent to 6.6 millioneuros (previous year: 5.5 million euros). The measures taken to reduce costs had a positive impact in the 2010 financial 7

Quarterly Report I/2011 year. The segment’s EBIT was, at minus 0.8 million euros, 0.9 million euros less than the previous year’s loss of 1.7 million euros. In the period under review there was no improvement in the utilisation of capacity or fixed cost degression.

The segment recorded sales revenue of around 0.3 million euros in the period under review (previous year: 0.4 million euros) and an EBIT of minus 0.5 million euros (previous year: minus 1.0 million euros). In this segment currency gains relating to the operational business and optimised cost structures resulted in an improved EBIT. Asset situation The Balda Group recorded as of 31 March 2011 a balance sheet total of 875.6 million euros following 810.5 million euros as of 31 December 2010. Investment in the first quarter of 2011 was around the same Group balance sheet total level as depreciation. Noncurrent assets increased by 69.1 (in mio. euros) million euros to 780.8 million euros (2010 reference date: 31.3.2011 875.6 711.7 million euros). The increase related to financial assets and was the result of the subsequent valuation of the TPK 31.12.2010 810.5 shareholding at a higher stock exchange price as of 31 March 2011 at 809 Taiwanese dollars (price as of 31 De- 0 300 600 900 cember 2010: 670 Taiwanese dollars). Net working capital, i.e. current assets (not including liquid funds) less current liabilities (not including bank liabilities), was 7.5 million euros at the close of the first quarter of 2011 (2010 reference date: 14.8 million euros).

The Balda Group’s equity rose as of the end of the first quarter of 2011 to 816.0 million euros (2010 reference date: 749.7 million euros). The subsequent valuation of the TPK shares was responsible for this. The fall in currency conversion differences due to changes in euro exchange rates had an opposite effect. The equity ratio as of 31 March 2011 was 93.2 percent. The rise in the equity ratio to 92.5 percent as of the end of 2010 was primarily due to the revaluation of the TPK shares.8

The Balda Group employed as of 31 March 2011 a total of 1,675people in its continued operations. This represents a fall of 770 employees or around 31.5 percent compared to 31December 2010. The fall is largely attributable to the restructuring, which has taken place in the MobileCom segment. TheGroup’s staff costs ratio was 23.4 percent in the period under review.As of 31 March 2011 the MobileCom segment employed a Number of employeestotal of 635 people. At the end of the 2010 financial year 31.3.2011 1,6751,344 people were employed in the production plants inChina. Following further analyses of the production proces- 31.12.2010 2,445ses in the Chinese plants, the segment has further improvedits production processes. The reduction of 709 employees 0 1,000 2,000 3,000was the result of temporary employees being released.The Electronic Products segment also recorded a fall in the number of employees. As of 31 March 2011 the companyemployed 809 people in its production plant in Ipoh, Malaysia. As of the end of December 2010 it employed 874 people.The slight fall is attributable to improved production processes in the plant in Ipoh.The Medical segment employed 207 people in Germany in the period under review following 204 people as of the end of the2010 financial year.The number of people employed in the Central Services segment remained at the same level of the previous year at 24. 11

Quarterly Report I/2011 Events after the reference date The TPK Holding Co. Ltd., in which Balda AG holds an investment of 16.1 percent, has covered its Capex financing requirements with the successful and several times oversubscribed placement of a convertible bond at favourable terms for 400 million US dollars. According to TPK, the intended high growth rates, which will also continue to support the positive rating of the TPK share, can only be achieved with this volume of investment. In order to ensure that the capital measure is a success, all of TPKs major shareholders including Balda have promised the underwriters of the bond a customary 90-day lock-up from the closing of the convertible bond. Therefore from the end of July 2011 50 percent of the shares held by Balda in TPK will still be subject to a lock-up and, as before, from the end of October 2011 none of the shares will be subject to a lock-up. The CEO was at a roadshow in London for several days in April 2011. Presentations were given to and discussions were held with several Balda investors and other interested parties, and individual meetings also took place with major investors. The success of this roadshow could in all probability be deduced from the increase in the share price following it. The price of the TPK share increased again as of the end of April 2011 to 856 Taiwanese dollars (which equated as of 30 April to around 20 euros and an enterprise value for the Balda shareholding of 720 million euros). The interest in the Balda share remains at a high level. With a trade volume of 53,8 million euros, the Balda share was as well the best-selling title of the SDax in April. Baldas Investor Relations have expanded their social media activities. In April Facebook (to be used in future in particular as a forum for exchanging views), Flickr (photo gallery) and Stock Twits were added to the current Twitter (short message service with links to current news), YouTube (videos) and Slideshare (documentation of presentations) services. The Group also provides with “Forum” a direct link to frequently used discussion forum concerning Balda of the blog in Wallstreet Online. In addition to this, the company provides a RSS feed as a tool to advise interested parties of Balda news upon publication. The Group will gradually expand this service. No further events occurred after 31 March 2011 which are of major significance to the Balda Group and might result in a different assessment of the company. Forecast Global growth continues The global economy is likely to continue growing in 2011. Although early indicators indicate that growth will slow down due to the discontinuation of government economic stimulus programmes, economists are expecting growth to accelerate again during the course of 2011. The current events in Japan following the earthquake disaster should be considered when asses- sing general economic development. Even if the Balda Group does not consider itself to be directly affected by the disaster, the consequences for the global economy are not foreseeable. In a worstcase scenario, Japan would face a deep recession which would also have a noticeable impact on the global economy. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is expecting that the economy will continue to recover in 2011 and 2012 and that global growth will be around 4 percent. On the other hand there are also risks. The worsening conflicts in North Africa and the Middle East, the possible escalation of the debt crisis in Europe and the USA and a significant rise in inflation in China will affect economic development in the global financial markets in 2011.12

Quarterly Report I/2011Sentiment indicators have improved significantly in Europe in the last few months. The economic recovery will be supportedin particular by exports and the building-up of stock levels. The eurozone will remain economically divided for the time beingthough. The reason for this is the escalating debt of some countries in the eurozone. The IMF is expecting growth of around1.5 percent in the eurozone following 1.7 percent in the previous year. The inflation rate in the EMU states has risen againdue to higher energy prices. For the current year the experts of MM Warburg & Co. are forecasting an inflation rate of around2.4 percent following 1.6 percent in the previous year.Germany remains on its path of growth. Low interest rates, favourable financing conditions, strong demand for German pro-ducts from all over the world and improved price competitiveness due to the revaluation of the euro will ensure that the eco-nomic upswing in Germany continues in the next few quarters. Germanys economy will expand by 2.8 percent in 2011 ac-cording to forecasts by the Ifo Institute. Government experts are expecting the German labour market to continue to recoverand a further fall in the unemployment rate to 7.0 percent following 7.7 percent in the previous year.After real GDP rose in the USA by 2.8 percent in 2010, the IMF is expecting growth of between 3.5 and 4.0 percent for 2011.The property and labour markets continue to be affected by uncertainty. The USAs rising national debt represents an addi-tional risk factor. At around 11 percent of GDP, the USAs national deficit is on average twice as high as in the eurozone. Ifthere is no fiscal stabilisation in the worlds largest economy, this may, according to the IMF, significantly threaten the recove-ry of the global economy.The “traffic lights” for economic development in the leading newly industrialising countries will stay on green in 2011 and2012. With the recovery in industrial countries, exports from newly industrialising countries increased significantly. The mainimpetus for growth is provided primarily by exports and rising raw material prices. The experts of the IMF are expecting GDPgrowth to be around 9 percent in China following 10.3 percent in 2010. The reason for the moderate fall is the more restricti-ve monetary and financial policy of the government in light of the threat of the economy overheating. The inflation rate forChina will be between 3.3 and 5 percent in 2011.Sector situationMobileComSmartphones are continuing to gain in popularity. Mobile web, modern touchscreen technologies and a range of applications(apps) are encouraging consumers all over the world to spend. In spite of supply shortages in Japan and unrest in theMiddle East, the expectations of market observers are optimistic for 2011. According to the market research institute Gartner,the number of mobile phones sold in 2011 will continue to growth. The beneficiaries of this development will be mainlysmartphones. Market observers are also forecasting high growth rates in this segment for 2012. Pricing pressure among pro-ducers of low-price phones will intensify according to consistent forecasts made by experts. The increasing popularity ofmodern mobile phones and saturated markets will be the reasons for falling prices in 2011.Nokia will remain the market leader among mobile phone producers in 2011. Apple will further expand its market positionwith the launch of iPhone 5 in 2011. The company from Cupertino is exciting more and more consumers with its advancedtouchscreen expertise and the features and modern design of its phones.According to the market research company IDC, Android, Google’s operating system, will generate the greatest growthamong the suppliers of mobile phone software and achieve a market share of 24.6 percent in 2014 (2010: 16.3 percent).Electronic ProductsAround 80 percent of all companies are expecting significant growth rates in 2011. According to the trade association BIT-KOM, sentiment indicators in the electronics sector rose to a record high in the first three months of 2011. New attractive 13

Quarterly Report I/2011 devices such as the tablet PC will continue to generate demand in the coming months. Newly developed software programmes and applications will also have a positive impact on the development of sales. Experts are expecting intensive price competition among manufacturers of consumer electronics in future. The fierce competition in the electronics sector will, in the opinion of the experts, result in falling margins in spite of increased sales. Medical The demand for German medical technology will remain stable in 2011 according to current estimates. Following the positive development in sales in 2010, the upward trend will, in the opinion of experts, continue in the current year. A revival in domestic demand and additional momentum from developing and newly industrialising countries are contributing towards this development. The emerging markets will, according to market researchers, become more important as sales markets for medical technology in future. The innovative strength of German medical technology manufacturers and the aging population in Western Europe are further drivers of the forecasted growth. Future corporate situation The Balda Group will continue its course of gradual optimisation, particularly in the MobileCom and Electronic Products segments. The Medical segment is right on course. For the planning and further course of action in the MobileCom segment, as explained above, specific measures are being taken following the evaluation of an analysis by external experts. The initial goal is to improve the utilisation of production capacity and further optimise the cost situation. At the same time the Group is prepared to assign shares to a strategic investor as part of a joint venture. The Electronic Products segment has also impressively shown an improved performance in the first quarter of 2011. With sales having increased significantly, an improvement in cost efficiency is now required. With continued successful fixed cost degression and increased sales, the segment should at least manage to break even in the coming quarters. Balda Medical will, as previously forecasted, steadily increase sales and earnings in 2011. Based on the current operational Group segments, the Balda Group is sticking to the forecast for the current financial year provided in the Annual Report 2010, i.e. the Board of Directors is expecting sales revenue to be at the previous year’s level and a slightly positive EBIT. Not including income from the potential sale of TPK shares, the EBT is likely to be at the same level as the EBIT. This forecast does not include several variables and further factors need to be considered. Any reduction of the MobileCom segment would require a completely new basis for calculating the forecast. A successful acquisition might also result in fun- damentally different assumptions for the calculation of the forecast. Unfortunately the Board of Directors is currently unable to provide a firmer basis. However, the strategic direction should now be much clearer than at the end of 2010. The Balda Group is seeking to enter into a joint venture with a strategic partner. The Group is working hard and determined on the acquisition of a substantial share in a company in the Medical market segment or related to the Medical market segment. The Balda Group can finance this planned shareholding without using funds from the proceeds of the sale of TPK shares. Balda AG’s Board of Directors is convinced that the Balda Group will be much more stable, much stronger and with very good growth prospects at the end of the current financial year, particularly in the operational segments, than after the first quarter of 2011. The path towards this will be characterised by change. The Bad Oeynhausen company is expecting to open a new chapter in its company history in 2012.14

Quarterly Report I/2011Risks and opportunities reportThe Balda Group identifies and assesses its opportunities and risks on a continuous basis. The Group management reportfor the 2010 financial year describes the opportunities and risk for the Group in detail. In the first three months of the cur-rent financial year the Groups opportunities and risk situation has changed due to changes in the following factors.Financial risksThe financial markets were also affected by the turbulence surrounding national debt in several European countries in thefirst quarter of 2011. After Greece and Ireland, Portugal applied for a bailout from the European Union. The country had resi-sted external support in recent months. The unclear situation resulted in high risk premiums for bonds of peripheralEuropean countries in the first few months of 2011. Due to unclear situation, the occurrence of risks relating to the generaleconomic environment cannot be ruled out in 2011 in Spain and Italy either.The drastic increase in the amount of money in circulation in 2009 might also result in higher inflation rates worldwide.Rising material prices as a result of the economic recovery reduce the real purchasing power of consumers. The continuingrisk of overheating due to enormous inflows of capital in newly industrialising countries might represent an additional risk forthe Balda Group.Capital market and financing risksFluctuations in the price performance of the TPK shares could result in a risk to the assets of the Group.From the granted credit lines to the Group, especially in China, a re-payment risk could occur, if the banks do not extend cre-dit lines or terminate them prematurely. Balda is in constant contact with the banks.Currency risksFurther risks could arise if the standard rate of exchange between the euro and foreign currencies changes. A weakening offoreign currencies might have a negative impact on the Balda Groups sales invoiced in the respective currency. In addition,risks might arise for the Group with respect to the shareholding in TPK due to the fluctuations in the exchange rate with theTaiwanese dollar.Risks and opportunities in the market for suppliersThe development of demand in the global market for mobile phones represents a particular risk factor for the Balda Group.The market for suppliers of manufacturers in this sector remains intensely competitive. The increasing pressure on prices willalso continue in the current financial year. Both the sales and margins of the MobileCom segment remain under pressure.Customer risksDependence on individual customers and their order volumes, particularly in the MobileCom segment, represents a furtherrisk factor for Balda AG. The market success of customers determines the volume of order calloffs and therefore the numberof system units to be produced by Balda. Any loss of market share by these customers may result in a fall in the Group’sincoming orders.The Balda Group counters this risk by pursuing technological diversification. The Group reduces the risk of dependency onthe market success of existing customers with the development and marketing of products for new customers in the ElectronicProducts and Medical segments. With the planned acquisition in the Medical segment Balda AG is seeking to significantlyreduce its dependency on the mobile phone sector. 15

Quarterly Report I/2011 Macroeconomic risks The natural disaster in Japan might also have an impact on macroeconomic development. Even if the Balda Group does not consider itself to be directly affected by the disaster, the consequences for the global economy are currently not foreseeable. The potential impact of a nuclear meltdown and the resulting radioactive contamination of a whole economic region is unclear. The raising of the nuclear alert level at the Fukushima power plant has already had a very negative impact on sentiment indicators in capital markets. What is noticeable is an increasing trend towards energy sources other than nuclear power. This might be reflected in a rise in global energy prices. Overall risk Based on the present level of information, there are no further risks for the growth or existence of the Group that go beyond the risks described above. The Board of Directors currently has no further knowledge concerning the worsening or occurrence of any of the abovementioned risks. Opportunities The Groups risk can be summarised as follows. With its current level of liquid assets as of the end of the first quarter of 2011, the company has sufficient financial resources for further organic and strategic growth. Balda is well positioned for important projects, such as the implementation of planned investments and possibly an acquisition. Balda share Balda share outdoes the SDax The devastating impact of the earthquake in Japan, the unrest in Arab countries and the renewed concerns concerning the European debt crisis resulted in losses in share markets worldwide in the first quarter. Despite the enormous amount of bad news from Europe and Japan, share prices recovered towards the end of the first quarter at a breath-taking rate. Following a low of 6,483 points on 15 March, the leading German index managed to rise to over 7,000 points by 30 March. The Dax opened the trading year at 6,973 points; on 31 March trading closed at 7,041 points. This represents a rise of almost 1 percent in the first quarter. The German index for small and mid caps, the SDax, in which Balda AG’s shares are listed, perfor- med comparatively unfavourable. It lost 32 points in the first quarter and quoted 5,144 points at the end of the period under review, a fall of 0.6 percent. A much more positive performance was again recorded for the shares of Balda AG. The share certificates opened the 2011 trading year with a price of 6.81 euros on the Xetra trading platform of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. On 31 March a closing price of 8.49 euros was recorded. This equates to a rise of around 1.68 euros or 24.7 percent. The highest price recorded for the Balda share in the first quarter was 8.63 euros (closing price on 7 March). The lowest price was 6.65 euros (closing price on 5 January). The average daily turnover with Balda shares (Xetra) in the first three months of the current financial year was 502,638 shares (previous year: 297,081 shares). The Balda share had the highest turnover among SDax shares in the months of January, February and March 2011. Balda AG’s market capitalisation based on 58,890,636 million shares was 499.9 million euros (31 December 2010: 406.3 million euros). Balda has been active in various social media channels such as Facebook and YouTube since September 2010. The Group advises of its publications and provides compact information on current news in the short message service Twitter. The company will also attach great importance to communicating openly with investors, journalists and analysts in the 2011 financial year.16

Cash flow statement The cash flow statement (see table in the appendix) only reports the data of the continued operations under the individual items. The comparison figures for the first quarter of the previous year have been adjusted accordingly. Significant increase in operational cash flow The Balda Group’s cash inflow from operating activities increased in the first quarter of 2011 due to the reduction in working capital to 9.1 million euros (previous year: minus 1.6 million euros).18

Quarterly Report I/2011The Group spent 1.7 million euros on investment activity by the end of the first quarter of the current business year (pre-vious year: 4.3 million euros). In the same period for the previous year the Group received liquid funds from the sale of sha-res in TPK (9.6 million euros).Cash outflows from financing activities in the first three months of 2011 totalled 5.4 million euros and primarily related to therepayment of credit lines in the MobileCom segment.The Group’s liquid funds totalled as of the end of the first quarter 48.3 million euros following 48.9 million euros at the endof the previous year.Balance sheet structureThe Balda Group is reporting a balance sheet total of 875.6 million euros as of 31 March 2011. Compared to the figure of810.5 million euros as of the reference date 2010 (31 December 2010), the balance sheet total increased by 65.1 millioneuros.On the assets side, the value of fixed assets fell as of the end of the first quarter by 3.5 million euros to 58.1 million euros(2010 reference date: 61.6 million euros). This fall is primarily currency-related.Goodwill also fell due to currency effects to 14.9 million euros as of 31 March 2011 following 15.7 million euros as of the2010 reference date. Financial investments under the item financial assets recorded an increase of 74.0 million euros as ofthe end of the period under review. The reason for this is the subsequent valuation of the TPK shares at stock exchangeprice as of 31 March 2011 in the amount of 809 Taiwanese dollars.Overall, non-current assets increased by 69.1 million euros as of the end of the first quarter of 2011 to 780.8 million euros(2010 reference date: 711.7 million euros).In current assets, inventories increased as of the end of the Current and non-current assetsfirst quarter due to advance payments made by almost 2.0 (in mio. euros)million euros to 20.6 million euros (2010 reference date: 31.3.2011 875.618.6 million euros). Trade accounts receivable fell by 5.4million euros due to customer payments. 31.12.2010 810.5On the liabilities side, equity rose by 66.3 million euros to 0 250 500 750 1,000816.0 million euros (2010 reference date: 749.7 millioneuros). In addition to currency-related conversion differences,in particular the subsequent valuation of the TPK shares isresponsible for the increase.Current liabilities fell from 54.8 million euros as of the 2010 Current and non-current liabilitiesreference date to 53.4 million euros as of 31 March 2011. (in mio. euros)The fall is in particular the result of credit lines being repaid 31.3.2011 59.6in the MobileCom segment.

Quarterly Report I/2011 Income statement The Balda Group generated sales of 26.7 million euros in the first quarter of 2011 in continued operations compared to 26.0 million euros in the same period for the previous year. The revenue of the individual segments is presented in the interim management report. The Balda Group recorded a total output of 29.3 million euros in the period under review (same period for the previous year: 29.1 million euros). The cost of materials and services increased in the first quarter of 2011 by 3.2 million euros to 17.1 million euros (same period for the previous year: 13.9 million euros). Balda’s cost of materials ratio measured against total output was 58.4 percent compared to 47.9 percent in the first quarter of 2010. The reasons for the increase are increased start-up costs for a new pro- ject in the smartphone sector and the change in the product mix. Personnel expenses fell in the year under review by 1.3 million euros to 6.9 million euros. In the same period for the previous year they totalled 8.2 million euros. The reduction in personnel due to the restructuring in the MobileCom segment taken place in 2010 was the main reason for the fall. The reduced depreciation in the first quarter of 2011 of 1.8 million euros compared to 2.7 million euros in the same period for the previous year is a result of the restructuring of the MobileCom segment and the elimination of depreciation of customer relations at Balda Solutions Malaysia. Other operating expenses fell by 1.1 million euros to 5.4 million euros as of the end of the first quarter of 2011 (same period for the previous year: 6.5 million euros). Their share in total output fell to 18.5 percent compared to 22.5 percent in the previous year. Balda was able to reduce the fixed costs due to the restructuring in the MobileCom segment and process optimisations in 2010. Earnings development The Balda Group reports an EBIT of minus 1.9 million euros in the first quarter of 2011 (same period for the previous year: minus 2.3 million euros). The improved cost structures in the individual segments are starting to take effect. The Group’s financial earnings rose to 6.6 million euros (same period for the previous year: 4.3 million euros). The reasons for the increase are beside a fall in interest expenses due to the elimination of convertible participation rights especially currency gains from internal financing in the amount of 6.8 million euros. The earnings of associated companies relating to the shareholding in TPK are no longer reported as financial assets after the loss of significant influence and the change in the valuation method in October 2010. In the same period for the previous year a figure of 5.3 million euros was reported here. Tax expenses were calculated based on customary tax rates and totalled 0.4 million euros in the period under review (same period for the previous year: 0.2 million euros). Quarterly earnings for the first three months of 2011 were plus 4.4 million euros (previous year: plus 1.8 million euros). In the previous year the Group reported earnings from the discontinued division of minus 0.3 million euros. The Balda Group’s net profit in the first quarter of 2011 was 4.4 million euros following 1.5 million euros in the same period for the previous year. Based on 58,891 million shares (as of 31 March 2011), undiluted earnings per share of 7.4 cents are calculated from the profit for the period. In the previous year the earnings per share based on 54,157 million shares were 3.0 cents.20
