Siemens in the third quarter (April 1 to June 30) of fiscal 2005

Earlier today, the shareholders of BenQ Group of Taiwan approved the mobile
phone business sale agreement. The transaction is expected to close in the
fourth quarter.

Mobile phone activities, reported as discontinued operations following a sale
agreement, are excluded from reported results for continuing operations in both
the current and prior-year periods, including Group profit, sales, orders and
cash flows.

Income from continuing operations was EUR 625 million compared to EUR 871
million a year earlier. Net income in the third quarter, which includes
discontinued operations, was EUR 389 million.

Basic earnings per share from continuing operations were EUR 0.70 compared to
EUR 0.97 a year earlier.

Group profit from Operations was EUR980 million on a continuing basis, compared
to EUR 1.333 billion in the third quarter a year ago.

On a continuing basis, Operations provided net cash of EUR 66 million from
operating and investing activities. Investing activities included significant
cash used in acquisitions.

Third-quarter orders increased 9% on a continuing basis, to EUR 19.935 billion,
and sales rose 7% year-over-year, to EUR 18.750 billion.

After the close of the third quarter, Siemens completed its acquisitions of
Flender Holding GmbH and VA Technologie AG.

The aim is a full-year result roughly in line with the comparable level of
income from continuing operations in the prior year.
