Release of an Ad hoc announcement according to § 15 WpHG, transmitted

The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

Order intake in the second quarter of 2009 was flat as against the
first quarter of 2009, at EUR2.3 billion (previous year: EUR4.1
billion). Total order intake for the first six months of the year
amounted to EUR4.6 billion, an ongoing clear decline of 49% compared
with the prior-year period (previous year: EUR9.0 billion).

The MAN Group generated revenue of EUR3.1 billion (previous year:
EUR3.9 billion) in the second quarter of 2009, compared with EUR2.6
billion in Q1.
Revenue was down by 23% in the first six months to EUR5.7 billion,
compared with EUR7.4 billion in the prior-year period.

The MAN Group recorded an operating profit of EUR144 million in the
second quarter of 2009 (previous year: EUR526 Mio), as against EUR100
million in the first quarter. In the first half of 2009 MAN generated
an operating profit of EUR244 million, down 74% on the prior-year
period (previous year: EUR949 million). The return on sales for the
first half of 2009 was 4.3% (previous year: 12.9%).

The MAN Group's earnings before tax fell to EUR118 million in the
first half of the year (previous year: EUR1,011 million). This
includes losses from nonrecurring items totaling EUR71 million. Net
income amounted to EUR208 million, compared with EUR768 million in the
previous year. This includes net income from discontinued operations
of EUR125 million (previous year: EUR43 million). Earnings per share
from continuing operations were EUR0.52 as against EUR4.89 in the
prior-year period.

We do not currently see any signs of the economic situation improving.
Cutbacks in investment are now not only impacting the Commercial
Vehicles business area but are also leading to a clear decline in
order intake in the other areas. The order backlog at Diesel, Turbo,
and Renk will continue to support us in 2009. The Group's financial
stability and the corporate bond placed also provide a good basis for
these times.
