    Not to be released until: August 6, 2009, 10:00 a.m. / Start statement René Obermann – Check against delivery – Statement delivered at the press conference on Deutsche Telekom’s first half-year results 2009 August 6, 2009 in Bonn René Obermann Chairman of the Board of Management Deutsche Telekom AG Ladies and Gentlemen, Nice to have you with us. You will see the figures in a moment. They show that our business has stabi- lized despite the economic crisis. We have responded decisively to the nega- tive trend of the first quarter. This approach will continue to bear fruit in the second half of the year. Some positive effects can be seen even now. This shows we are moving in the right direction. First of all, I would like to present the key results of the second quarter: - 2 - • We increased Group revenue and Group EBITDA substantially. Thanks especially to the consolidation of OTE, revenue increased by 7.4 percent and EBITDA by 8.4 percent year-on-year. • Our adjusted net profit of EUR 0.8 billion was almost 20 percent higher than the figure for the same period last year. • The measures initiated in April to safeguard earnings are beginning to take effect. • Free cash flow in the second quarter came in at EUR 1.4 billion, up from EUR 0.4 billion in the first quarter, and will rise significantly again in the second half of the year. • In the United Kingdom, the United States, and Poland – in other words, the markets in which we have seen a need for action – we have already improved our margins, in some cases substantially, compared with the first quarter.
