5 EX-99.1 3 f00271ex99-1.txt PRESS RELEASE 1 EXHIBIT 99.1 SAP CONCLUDES ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT IN COMMERCE ONE WALLDORF, Germany - August 24, 2001 - SAP AG (NYSE: SAP), the leading provider of e-business software solutions, today announced it has received all necessary approvals from U.S. antitrust authorities for its additional investment in Commerce One and the acquisition has been closed. Through the additional investment, SAP has expanded its alliance with Commerce One and now owns slightly more than 20 percent of Commerce One outstanding common stock. As stated in the July 19th second quarter earnings release, SAP will be required as a result of surpassing the 20% ownership threshold in Commerce One to use the equity method of accounting to record, in finance income, a portion of Commerce One's net income or loss based upon SAP's investment percentage. Under U.S. GAAP, the equity method must also be applied retroactively to improve comparability. Finance income will thus be restated to include 2.6% and 4.4% of Commerce One's first and second quarter loss, respectively as well as other acquisition related adjustments. Accordingly, SAP will reduce its reported finance income for the first and second quarter of 2001 by approximately Euro 8 million and Euro 85 million, respectively. The impact is on financial income only. This is a purely accounting measure that neither effects SAP's cash position, nor its operating results. The 2001 second quarter impact is largely due to the one-time charges resulting from the write-off of intangible assets at Commerce One. SAP will release full retroactively adjusted Income Statements and Balance Sheets for its 2001 first and second quarters on October 18th. Also on that day, SAP will report its third quarter results.
