Information and Explanation of the Issuer to this News:
'The strong fourth quarter exceeded our own expectations. Throughout the year, we had to deal with many uncertainties
and restrictions in the implementation of customer projects due to the COVID 19 pandemic,' says Alfred Schopf,
Co-Chairman of the PVA TePla Group. 'We have been very focused in working with our customers and both sides have shown
maximum flexibility. This has now paid off and we were able to achieve an excellent full-year result. We are equally
pleased with the good order intake we achieved under these difficult conditions. For this, we would like to express our
gratitude to our customers and employees.
'Manfred Bender, Co-CEO of the PVA TePla Group since January 2021, adds: 'Our project pipeline looks very promising.
The ever-increasing and now even faster pace of digitalisation inevitably leads to capacity expansions for
manufacturers of semiconductor components. With our unique technology, we are very well positioned as a system supplier
to participate in this growth.
