DGAP-Adhoc: Schaltbau Holding AG: Schaltbau and Bombardier Transportation agree to continue PSD project in Brazil on modified basis

Munich, Germany, 18 July 2018. Pintsch Bamag Antriebs- und Verkehrstechnik GmbH ("Schaltbau Pintsch Bamag") - part of the Schaltbau Group (Schaltbau Holding AG, WKN: 717030, ISIN: DE0007170300) - and Bombardier Transportation have agreed on the modified continuation of the platform screen doors (PSD) project commenced in 2012 in Brazil with Companhia Do Metropolitano de São Paulo ("São Paulo Metro"). Both parties signed a corresponding memorandum of understanding. The agreement is still subject to final contractual documentation.

Previously, Schaltbau Pintsch Bamag itself had been responsible for installing the new platform screen doors in São Paulo Metro stations. In future, this work will be performed by another party to be commissioned by Bombardier Transportation. Schaltbau Pinsch Bamag will initially provide the materials and technical support required for installations at a reduced number of stations. The contractual terms and conditions for this work are also being modified.

The new arrangements significantly reduce the scale of project risks to which Schaltbau Pintsch Bamag is exposed. As a result of the reduced project scope and changes to contractual terms and conditions, the level of provisions for onerous contracts and write-downs on materials recognised in the Schaltbau Group balance sheet will need to be revised. These adjustments are expected to have a nearly double-digit million positive impact on earnings.
