MS ‘Deutschland’ Beteiligungs GmbH / Key word(s): Miscellaneous PRESS RELEASE MS “DEUTSCHLAND” Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH again receives Rating for its Bond – Rating agency Feri EuroRating issues bond rating – Listing of the bond in the Entry Standard Segment further secured – Growth strategy opens a positive perspective Neustadt in Holstein, 17 April 2014. MS “Deutschland” Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH (MS Deutschland GmbH) has received a new rating for its bond (ISIN DE000A1RE7V0) from the renowned rating agency Feri EuroRating Service AG (Feri). The rating is based on extensive data provided by the company and follows an intensive multi-week rating process. The resulting rating of the bond stands at BB-. MS Deutschland GmbH did not have a rating since December 2013, after the former rating agency Scope withdrew the rating. This happened only 12 months after issuing an initial rating with a grade of A. With the issuing of the rating – which is provided by Feri for the first time – the company now fully complies with the criteria for the listing of the bond at the Entry Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The rating mirrors the opinion of the rating agency regarding the issued bond and is in line with management expectations. Christopher Nolde, managing director of MS Deutschland GmbH, states: “We are relieved that the company is again compliant with the regulation of the Entry Standard. Due to our focussed quality and growth strategy, the prospects of the company develop positively. We thus expect further growth of booking figures for the original “Traumschiff”. Regarding the first half of the year 2014 we are extremely confident to fully meet our sales growth targets.” For further information please contact: Investors Financial & Business Press Corporate Information MS “Deutschland” Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH, headquartered in Neustadt in Holstein (Germany), operates cruises worldwide throughout the year as the owner of the ocean cruise liner MS DEUTSCHLAND, also known as the “Traumschiff” from the television series of the same name.
