Dear Leica friends,

__Leica Camera Group does not catch up in the months of October and November

In a difficult market environment, the Leica Camera Group, Solms, in the
months of October and November 2004 has not reached the targeted sales
increases as compared to the previous months. The Company also does not
expect a short-term improvement in the following months. The Solms-based
camera and optics specialist therefore expects to close fiscal year
2004/2005 (FY end March 31) with an operating result in the euro -10
 million range. 

The current negative earnings situation does not impact the ongoing
improvements in distribution and the further development of the product
range in sports optics as well as in analogue and digital photo products.

Details concerning the 3rd quarter (October through December 2004) will
be published at the beginning of 2005.

  
With best regards,
Leica Camera AG
