Deutsche Börse AG Reports Stable Results In Q2/2012 - Stable Net Revenue Of €507 Million Despite The Difficult Capital Market Environment - Full Acquisition Of Eurex Pays Off - Adjusted Earnings Per Share Of €1.01

Date 26/07/2012

Deutsche Börse AG published its figures for the second quarter of 2012 on Thursday. The Company’s sales revenue rose to €555.0 million. This corresponds to a 5 percent increase compared with the second quarter of 2011 (€528.6 million), now that
100 percent of Eurex’s sales revenue is attributable to Deutsche Börse following its full acquisition. Despite an overall weak financial market environment, the Company’s net revenue remained stable at €506.7 million. This is mainly the result of the considerable increase of trading volumes in index derivative products as well as the Eurex acquisition. The Group’s operating costs declined by 2 percent year-on-year to €228.9 million and include exceptional items of around €5 million mainly for efficiency measures. Adjusted for special factors, earnings per share amounted to €1.01 in the second quarter of 2012.
