Ad hoc release in compliance with § 15 WpHG

Karlsruhe, 8 March 2012.

In view of its record profit in 2011, init innovation in traffic systems AG (ISIN DE 0005759807) plans to increase the dividend to EUR 0.80 (2010: a total of EUR 0.60). Today, the Managing Board decided to submit a proposal for appropriation of profits to the Annual General Meeting on 16 May 2012 and submitted this proposal to the Supervisory Board.

In 2011, init innovation in traffic systems AG generated consolidated earnings of EUR 15.1 million (2010: EUR 10 million). This means earnings per share of EUR 1.51 Euro (2010: EUR 1.00). As the company disposes of an excellent cash position, the Managing Board considers a higher dividend to be appropriate.
