HIGHLIGHTS

* Year on year (YoY) sales growth of 4 per cent. (YoY revenue growth of 3 per   
  cent.), margins remain solid

  Sales per division
      * Digital YoY sales growth 6%
      * CtP YoY sales growth 0%

  Sales per region
      * EMEA YoY sales growth  16%
      * Americas YoY sales growth -21%
      * Asia-Pacific YoY sales growth -2%

A weakening of the US dollar had a negative effect on sales in 'dollar
countries' (8 per cent. currency translation impact). Sales in the USA also
slowed down due to the restructuring of the USA sales office. As from the second
half of 2007, this restructuring is expected to have a positive effect.

* Cost efficiency improved

Salaries and other operating charges increased by two per cent. compared to the
first half of 2006, but decreased by 14 per cent. compared to the second half of
2006. Taking into account the fact that the other operating charges include
approximately Euro3 million of non-recurring costs related to restructuring
following the takeover by Punch International nv ('Punch International') and
related transaction costs, the decrease is even more substantial, amounting to
approximately 20 per cent.

* Working capital management improved

      * Inventories down Euro6.3 million
      * Trade receivables down Euro7.9 million
      * Trade payables down Euro2.0 million
      * Net Other & Tax liabilities down Euro7.1 million

      Net improvement Working Capital Euro5.1 million

Improved matching between production and orders allowed a Euro6 million reduction
in inventories. An improved follow-up of trade receivables has lead to an
improvement in working capital of almost Euro8 million.

* Necessary investments completed

Year-on-year investment is down by 35 per cent.All major investments in tangible
assets required to implement the Company's organic growth strategy have now been
made. Investments in R&D remained at the same level in order to maintain the
Company's technological leadership and market position.

* Offer by Punch International- Relation with Punch Graphix nv (formerly Punch 
  Technix nv)

On 8 January 2007 Punch International launched a mandatory offer of 128p per
share for the shares in Punch Graphix plc that it did not already own. When the
offer closed on 13 February 2007 Punch International had increased its
shareholding in Punch Graphix from 49.0 per cent. to 92.6 per cent. As at 18
July 2007, its holding had risen to 97.29 per cent.

On 18 July 2007 Punch Technix nv ('Punch Technix'), a member of the Punch
International group specialising in machine construction for various industries,
acquired 97.29 per cent. of the outstanding shares in the capital of Punch
Graphix plc from parent company Punch International. 36.0 per cent. of the Punch
Graphix plc shares were acquired as contribution in kind in exchange for the
issuance of new Punch Technix shares to Punch International. The balance (i.e.
61.3 per cent. of the Punch Graphix plc shares) was acquired for a cash
consideration of Euro119.6 million (financed by Punch International).

Following completion of the transaction, Punch Technix changed its company name
to Punch Graphix nv with effect from 23 July 2007 to reflect the fact that the
acquired graphics business will dominate the combined group's activities. In
addition it was decided to change the supervisory board and management board to
reflect the change in composition of the group's activities. Certain members of
the Board and management team of Punch Graphix plc have been appointed to the
Board and management team of Punch Graphix nv. Punch Graphix nv is listed on
Euronext Amsterdam under ISIN NL 0006007247 and Mnemo PGX.

In the light of the outcome of the Punch International offer and subsequent
transaction with Punch Technix, the Company intends to apply for the
cancellation of the admission to trading of its shares on AIM. Such cancellation
is expected to be effective before the end of 2007.

BUSINESS REVIEW

Sales & revenues

Digital printing solutions (Xeikon)

In the six months to 30 June 2007 sales of Xeikon were up by 6 per cent. to
Euro59.2 million (H1 2006: Euro55.7million).

Following the successful launch of the Xeikon 6000 in September 2006, Xeikon
introduced two new digital colour printing systems in February 2007; the Xeikon
4000 and the Xeikon 5000plus. The combination of these printing systems,
Xeikon's FA (form adapted) toner range and the updated X-800 digital front-end
continues to set new standards in digital colour printing for speed,
productivity, image quality, substrate range and extended applications. These
features, combined with favourable printing costs, put Punch Graphix ahead of
the competition in its target market segment of high-end full colour digital
printing presses. According to independent studies, this market segment is
growing at approximately 11 per cent. per annum.

Sales growth during the first half of 2007 fell short of market growth rates
mainly due to the reorganisation of the USA sales office which resulted in a
sales drop of 21 per cent. in the USA. The adverse movement of the EUR/USD
exchange rate had a negative impact on sales, causing an 8 per cent. currency
translation difference. Asian sales remained more or less stable while EMEA
sales growth outperformed the market.

Prepress solutions

Overall sales of Euro24.2 million at the Prepress solutions division were
comparable to that of the six months ended 30 June 2006.

basysPrint sales weakened slightly in the Asia Pacific region but this was more
than compensated for by growing sales in South America.

Sales under the terms of the OEM agreement with Agfa for the newspaper segment
remained at a level similar to the first half of 2006.

Other operating income

Other operating income totalled Euro3.5 million and consisted mainly of re-invoiced
costs relating to R&D, rental income and government grants received. The
decrease compared to the first six months of 2006 (Euro3.9 million) is principally
due to a reduction in government grants received.

EBITDA

EBITDA is defined by Punch Graphix as earnings before interest and taxes, plus
depreciation amortisation and provisions booked, minus any potential reductions
of those items. EBITDA over the six months to 30 June 2007 amounted to Euro21.6
million (H1 2006: Euro21.0 million) and has grown in line with revenue. The EBITDA
margin was 25 per cent., on a par with last year's first six months, but
represents a significant improvement compared to the second half of 2006.
Improved margins were primarily due to the implementation of a cost-efficiency
and restructuring program following completion of the takeover offer by Punch
International. Salaries and other operating charges have been reduced by an
annualised Euro4.9 million, resulting in an improvement of the EBITDA margin from
23 per cent. to 25 per cent. Other operating charges include Euro3 million in
non-recurring costs related to the restructuring following the take-over by
Punch International and related transaction costs.

Operating profit (EBIT)

The investments of last year have lead to a 21 per cent. or Euro1.3 million
increase in depreciation charges compared to the first half of 2006. Operating
profit thus amounts to Euro13.2 million, a decrease of 1 per cent. compared to the
first six months of last year (Euro13.3 million).

Profit before taxation

Profit before taxation over the first six months was Euro11.9 million, a decrease
of 11 per cent. compared to the same period last year.

Net profit - earnings per share

Net profit increased by two per cent. from Euro8.2 million to Euro8.4 million. As a
result, earnings per share (basic) increased from 8.04 euro cents for the first
half of 2006 to 8.17 euro cents for the reporting period. The number of shares
in issue used for the calculation of earnings per share was 102.9 million.

Balance sheet & cash flow

As at 30 June 2007, shareholders' equity totalled Euro117.8 million. The increase
of Euro10 million compared to 31 December 2006 is driven mainly by retained
earnings and translation differences. Minority interests were Euro0.5 million.
Total equity as at 30 June 2007 therefore amounted to Euro118.4 million.
Considering a balance sheet total of Euro223 million, solvency improved from 49 per
cent. (31 December 2006) to 53 per cent. (30 June 2007).

Over the first six months of 2007 the level of net financial debt increased from
Euro14.2 million to Euro32.7 million.

Improved matching between production and orders allowed a Euro6m reduction in
inventories. An improved follow-up of trade receivables has lead to an
improvement in working capital of almost Euro8 million.

Net cash used in operating activities for the first half of 2007 was Euro14.0
million (2006: Euro0.8 million). Punch Graphix International nv has granted a loan
to Punch International for a maximum amount of Euro40.0 million. On 30 June 2007,
Euro34.6 million of this loan had been drawn down (current account receivable). The
directors believe that this loan provides Punch Graphix with a better return on
its excess cash than other current market offerings.

Offer by Punch International - Relation with Punch Graphix nv (formerly Punch
Technix nv)

On 8 January 2007 Punch International launched a mandatory offer of 128p per
share for the shares in Punch Graphix that it did not already own. When the
offer closed on 13 February 2007 Punch International had increased its
shareholding in Punch Graphix from 49 per cent. to 92.6 per cent.

On 18 July 2007 Punch Technix nv, a member of the Punch group specialising in
machine construction for various industries, acquired 97.29 per cent. of the
outstanding shares in the capital of Punch Graphix plc from parent company Punch
International. 36.0 per cent. of the Punch Graphix plc shares were acquired as
contribution in kind in exchange for the issuance of new Punch Technix nv shares
to Punch International. The balance (i.e. 61.3 per cent. of the Punch Graphix
plc shares) was acquired for a cash consideration of Euro119.6 million (financed by
Punch International).

Following completion of the transaction, Punch Technix nv changed its company
name to Punch Graphix nv with effect from 23 July 2007 to reflect the fact that
the acquired activities in the graphics industry will dominate the combined
group's activities. In addition it was decided to change the supervisory board
and management board to reflect the change in composition of the group's
activities. Certain members of the Board and management team of Punch Graphix
plc have been appointed to the Board and management team of Punch Graphix nv.

Strategy and prospects

Following the Punch International offer and subsequent transactions with Punch
Technix nv, the Company intends to apply for the cancellation of the admission
of its shares to trading on AIM. The cancellation of admission is expected to
become effective before the end of 2007. Accordingly, it is expected that this
will be the last results statement issued by Punch Graphix plc. For guidance on
the strategy of the newly formed Punch Graphix nv group going forward, we refer
to the preliminary results statement published by Punch Graphix nv, listed on
Euronext Amsterdam.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of accounting

The unaudited interim financial information has been prepared on the basis of
the accounting policies that will be applied in the 2007 annual report.

The interim financial information for both six months ended 30 June 2007 and 30
June 2006 is unaudited.

In the opinion of the directors, the interim financial information for these
periods fairly presents the financial position, results of operations and cash
flows for these periods and conforms with the accounting policies that will be
applied in the 2007 annual report.

The interim financial information included in this announcement does not
comprise statutory accounts within the meaning of S240 of the Companies Act
1985.

The figures for the year ended 31 December 2006 have been extracted from the
statutory accounts which have been filed with the Registrar of Companies.'The
auditors' report on those accounts was unqualified, did not include reference to
any matters to which the auditor drew attention by way of a matter of emphasis
without qualifying their report and did not contain any statement under S237 of
the Companies Act 1985.
