Economic forecasts are currently burdened by considerable insecurity; delays or reductions in investment during 2009 cannot be ruled out. Such a development could well affect Jetter AG and in the short run slow down the expected growth of sales and profit. Based on existing long-term contracts however, management keeps up the medium term growth targets.
The complete quarterly report will be published on 10 November 2008 and will be available at the websites of Jetter (http://www.jetter.de) and Deutsche Börse (http://deutsche-boerse.com).
