PRESS RELEASE

Muehlhan AG publishes its results for the first quarter of 2020

- No relevant effects from the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020

- Revenues of €70.2 million, EBIT of €0.8 million

- Not possible to provide forecast on revenues and income

Hamburg, April 30, 2020-From January through March 2020, Muehlhan AG (Open Market;
ISIN DE000A0KD0F7) generated revenues of €70.2 million (previous year: €67.6 million) and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of €0.8 million (previous year: €1.3 million). The increase in revenues is mainly a result of extensive activity in the ship and wind service areas. The lower EBIT is in line with the usual fluctuations in project business. Muehlhan only started seeing any effects from the COVID-19 pandemic in the last couple weeks of March, and this hardly affected the first quarter, which had been good up until then. At €5.4 million, cash flow from operating activities improved significantly compared to the previous year due to the reduction in working capital and cautious investing activity (previous year: €-3.3 million).

A geographic review shows that revenues increased year-over-year in Europe. Revenues in this region rose by €6.3 million to €60.2 million due to positive earlier high levels of activity in the Renewables (wind power) and Oil & Gas segments. In the Middle East, revenues fell by €1.2 million to €4.9 million. In North America, revenues fell €1.8 million year-over-year to €2.9 million due to completed projects. In the Rest of the World, revenues were down €0.7 million at €2.3 million.

In the Ship business segment, revenues rose €4.3 million year-over-year to €21.1 million. Due to the exceptionally early start of offshore project activities in Denmark, revenues in the Oil & Gas segment rose by €0.9 million to €20.0 million. The Renewables business segment significantly increased its revenues by €3.7 million to €12.2 million due to the expansion of activities in both the production and service businesses. At €20.9 million, revenues in the Industry/Infrastructure business were €4.0 million lower than in the prior-year period.

The Executive Board expects the months from April to June to post significantly lower results than in the prior-year period due to the restrictions on public and business life. The continued development of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting restrictions will continue to have an impact on Muehlhan Group's operations in the coming months. However, demand for Muehlhan's services remains strong. In contrast to the services of industries such as gastronomy and tourism, most of Muehlhan's work will be caught up on later. As there is as yet no clear picture of how things will develop, it is still not possible to provide a forecast. It is clear that revenues and income in 2020 will be significantly lower than the previous year's figures.
