Munich, October 20, 2015 – The Munich fashion group LUDWIG BECK (ISIN DE 0005199905) generated gross sales in the amount of € 100.9m in the first nine months of the 2015 fiscal year (previous year: € 69.2m).

Munich, July 21, 2015 – The Munich fashion group LUDWIG BECK (ISIN DE 0005199905) has closed the first half-year of 2015 very satisfactorily. The dominant event in the second quarter was the acquisition of 100% of the shares in WORMLAND, a men’s fashion retailer based in Hanover. This strategically significant step has already been reflected in the financial figures of the Group, whose comparability with those of the same period last year is thus strongly reduced. The integration of WORMLAND is therefore essentially completed. Since not all information required for the conclusive recognition of the business combination in the balance sheet is currently available, a preliminary purchase price allocation has been undertaken.
