Effective January 6, 2005. SGL Carbon concluded the sale of its investment in
SGL ACOTEC GmbH, which included SGL's Surface Protection business. The effects
resulting from this transaction were already recognised in the annual financial
statements for 2004. The Process Technology (PT) business remaining in the Group
was integrated within the Specialties (S) Business Area together with the
Graphite Specialties (GS) business. Only the comparable results of continuing
operations are presented in this interim report.

According to IFRS 2, share-based payments such as stock option plans and share
bonus programs for employees and members of senior management are included under
staff costs, effective January 1, 2005. Based on current calculation, this
change burdens the result of the segments and corporate costs by a total of
approximately EUR2 million each quarter in 2005.

As already discussed at the year-end press conference in March 2005, the
extraordinary restructuring measures have now been largely completed. Therefore,
profit from operations (EBIT) no longer includes a separate presentation of
restructuring expenses.

(1)  Comparable EBIT for 9M/2004 is calculated as follows: reported EBIT after
     restructuring expenses amounted to EUR39.4 million in 9M/2004. Taking into
     consideration the EUR12.6 million operating loss from the divested Surface
     Protection business, the discontinuation of the EUR4.7 million scheduled
     goodwill amortization in accordance with IFRS 3,and the reclassification of
     the interest on the North American pension provisions of EUR3.7 million,
     which are now unified and shown in the net financing costs, the comparable
     EBIT of EUR60.4 million results.

(2)  In 9M/2005, approximately 56.4 million shares were outstanding on average.



Despite the seasonally weaker third quarter, consolidated sales after 9M/2005
increased 13.1% to EUR778.1 million due to the strong development of demand
in all three business areas. Adjusted for foreign currency changes, sales grew
by 14.4%. EBIT rose by a disproportionately higher rate than sales from
comparable EUR60.4 million the previous year to EUR86.4 million,
corresponding to an increase of 43.0%. The principal reasons for the strong
growth in earnings were the ongoing favourable developments in CG, the profit
contributions from GS and PT as well as the positive results from SGL T which
benefited from the earnings contribution out of the Audi cooperation agreement.
In addition, cost savings of about EUR14 million supported the earnings
growth in 9M/2005.

First nine months 2005 net financing costs of EUR45.4 million were burdened
with EUR4.2 million of one-time and non-cash measures in Q3/2005. These were

-    the reduction of the US-Dollar credit facility from $112 million to $80
     million in September 2005, which led to the write-off of previously
     amortised refinancing expenses in Q3/2005 (EUR1.5 million).

-    the early repayment of the remaining North American antitrust fines of
     around EUR54 million, which had a final effect from the accrued interest
     (EUR1.7 million) in Q3/2005 and

-    a lower market value of interest derivatives (EUR1.0 million) based on the
     mark-to-market valuation on September 30, 2005

Profit before and after tax
Profit before income taxes amounted to EUR41.0 million after nine months 2005
compared to EUR15.0 million in the same year earlier period. With a tax rate
of approximately 42%, consolidated net profit in 9M/2005 more than tripled to
EUR23.6 million (9M/2004: EUR7.5 million). Taking into consideration the
loss from the divested Surface Protection business, profit after tax rose from
EUR-1.2 million in the first nine months of 2004 to EUR23.6 million in the
reported period. Earnings per share thus amounted to EUR0.42 compared to the
comparable figure of EUR-0.02 after 9M/2004.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Compared to December 31, 2004 (EUR1,315 million), total assets as of
September 30, 2005, were substantially reduced to EUR1,156 million due to

-    the complete redemption of the convertible bond out of the existing cash
     escrow (EUR50 million),

-    the early repayment of the North American antitrust fines and the
     redemption of the associated currency hedging instruments out of the
     existing cash escrow in Q3/2005 (EUR54 million),

-    the scheduled payments of EUR15 million to the U.S. antitrust authorities
     in H1/2005,

-    the reduction of the US-Dollar credit facility by around EUR23 million in
     September 2005 by utilising cash on the balance sheet and

-    the sale of the Surface Protection business on January 6, 2005 (EUR64
     million).

Currency movements (mainly the US-Dollar, the Canadian Dollar, and the Polish
Zloty) have had an expansive effect on the balance sheet of EUR49 million.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The increase in working capital by EUR58 million over the year-end 2004
resulted from higher business activities in all segments. especially at CG and
SGL T. Excluding currency effects of EUR15 million, an operational increase
in working capital of EUR43 million remains. Despite the higher level, we
were able to reduce the average days working capital from 151 at September 30,
2004. to 140 at September 30, 2005. For Q4/2005, we expect a seasonally lower
level of working capital compared to the level at September 30, 2005.
Nevertheless, working capital at the end of 2005 will be higher than at the end
of 2004 due to the substantially higher sales development this year.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Net debt at September 30, 2005, decreased to EUR300 million from EUR321
million at the end of 2004 mainly due to the operational free cash flow
generation of EUR20.8 million in the first nine months 2005. Gearing improved
to 0.9, achieving a value below 1 for the first time in years (31.12.2004: 1.1).
We continue to expect net debt at the end of 2005 to be below EUR300 million.

(1) adjusted by currency effects





SGL Carbon achieved a positive operating cash flow of EUR92.8 million in the
first nine months of 2005 compared to EUR75.6 million in the year earlier
period. Higher profit contributions from operating activities were again
partially offset by a temporary build up of working capital, which was largely
attributable to servicing higher than expected demand. Other operating cash uses
increased to EUR55.3 million in the reporting period from EUR39.6 million
in the first nine months 2004. The main reason for this was the corporate bond,
which was issued in February 2004. Two semi-annual interest payments for this
bond were made in February and August 2005, while in 2004, only one interest
payment was made in August. Further causes were higher tax payments and bonus
payments in 2005, since the Board of Management and 156 members of senior
management waived their bonuses in 2004 as part of the refinancing and capital
increase efforts of the Company. As a result, net cash provided by operating
activities before antitrust payments amounted to EUR37.5 million in the first
nine months 2005 compared to EUR36.0 million in the same year earlier period.

Payments made in connection with antitrust proceedings consisted of the
scheduled payments to the North American antitrust authorities of EUR15.1
million in H1/2005 as well as the premature and complete payment of the
remaining North American antitrust liabilities and the closing of the associated
currency hedging instruments in Q3/2005 out of the restricted cash account for
antitrust payments (around EUR54 million).

Capital expenditures of EUR27.5 million slightly exceeded the previous year's
figure of EUR25.9 million, and was EUR23.3 million below depreciation of
EUR50.8 million during the reporting period, compared to EUR46.4 million
in the first nine months 2004. This resulted in free cash flow for the first
nine months 2005 of EUR20.8 million compared to EUR7.7 million in the
comparable 2004 period.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Sales increased by 13.4% to EUR468.0 million in the first nine months 2005.
Adjusted for foreign currency changes, sales growth was 15.4%. Due to the
continuing good demand for graphite electrodes, higher prices and ongoing cost
reduction measures, EBIT in the reporting period increased by 26.9% to
EUR90.0 million. The slightly lower return on sales compared to H1/2005
(19.4%) is a result of the seasonally typical lower production volumes in the
third quarter. The average price for graphite electrodes increased by 13% in
US-Dollar and by 5% in Euro compared to the first nine months of the previous
year. Total shipments amounted to 165.000 metric tons in the first nine months
of this year, 7.8% higher than in the comparable period last year (153.000
metric tons). As expected, raw material and energy costs increased by around
10%.

For the full year 2005 we are expecting a sales increase comparable to the
growth in the first nine months 2005 and an EBIT, which will again show a more
than proportionate growth by up to 30% over the full year 2004.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Due to a good development in demand particularly from the industrial and
automotive industries, sales in the reporting period increased by 6.8% to
EUR188.1 million. Currency movements had no impact on the sales growth. EBIT
in Q3/2005 increased by a strong 42.9% to EUR6.0 million compared with
Q3/2004, with the improvement coming from both GS and PT. Due to the weak
Q1/2005, the Specialties EBIT in the first nine months 2005 remained marginally
below the strong year earlier period, whereby PT's result was already
significantly above the comparable 2004 result, but GS's still slightly below.

For the full year 2005 we expect Specialties to achieve a sales increase of
about 5% and a more than proportionate growth n EBIT of slightly above 10% over
the full year 2004.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Due to the continued good demand for Fibres, Composites and Brakes, sales rose
by 22.8% to EUR120.2 million. After adjusting for foreign currency changes,
growth amounted to 23.8%. The EBIT in the first nine months 2005 of EUR3.1
million benefited from a low single digit million profit contribution from the
AUDI cooperation agreement in Q3/2005, as already announced in our H1/2005
report.

For the full year 2005, we continue to expect a break even in EBIT compared to a
loss of EUR10 million in the year 2004.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Corporate costs increased from EUR18.9 million in the first nine months 2004
to EUR20.6 million in the reporting period. This was primarily attributable
to expenses in connection to the implementation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as
well as the first time inclusion of share-based remuneration components under
the provisions of IRFS 2 from January 1, 2005, onwards and higher bonus accruals
compared to 2004.



Employees

The number of employees in the Group remained virtually unchanged at 5,096 as of
September 30, 2005, compared to a total of 5,097 as of June 30, 2005, thereby
remaining below the level of 5,109 as of December 31, 2004.



Outlook

Group EBIT in Q4/2005 is expected to be lower than in Q3/2005 due to the
shortfall of the profit contribution from the AUDI cooperation agreement as well
as a traditionally weak December in GS. Nevertheless, EBIT in Q4/2005 will
likely be more than four times as high as the result of Q4/2004 (EUR5.2
million).

For the full year 2005 we anticipate group sales to increase a little above 10%
and group EBIT to rise more than proportionately to above 60% as well as a
positive after tax result.

SGL Carbon: First Nine Months of 2005

o    Sales in Q3/2005 plus 11% to EUR261.7 million

o    EBIT plus 75% to EUR32.6 million compared to Q3/2004

o    After tax profit of EUR23.6 million in 9M/2005 after EUR7.5 million in year
     earlier period

o    Net debt reduction to EUR300 million as of Sept. 30, 2005 (compared to
     EUR342 million as of June 30, 2005)

o    Equity ratio 28% as of Sept. 30, 2005 (compared to 24% as of June 30, 2005)

o    Ongoing favourable development anticipated in Q4/2005

Wiesbaden, November 09, 2005. Despite the seasonally weaker third quarter,
consolidated sales of SGL Carbon after 9M/2005 increased 13.1% to EUR778.1
million due to the strong development of demand in all three business areas.
Adjusted for foreign currency changes, sales grew by 14.4%. EBIT rose by a
disproportionately higher rate than sales from comparable EUR60.4 million the
previous year to EUR86.4 million, corresponding to an increase of 43.0%. The
principal reasons for the strong growth in earnings were the ongoing favourable
developments in CG, the profit contributions from GS and PT as well as the
positive results from SGL T which benefited from the earnings contribution out
of the AUDI cooperation agreement. In addition, cost savings of about EUR14
million supported the earnings growth in 9M/2005.

Net financing costs
First nine months 2005 net financing costs of EUR45.4 million were burdened
with EUR4.2 million of one-time and non-cash measures in Q3/2005. These were

-    the reduction of the US-Dollar credit facility from $112 million to $80
     million in September 2005, which led to the write-off of previously
     amortised refinancing expenses in Q3/2005 (EUR1.5 million).

-    the early repayment of the remaining North American antitrust fines of
     around EUR54 million, which had a final effect from the accrued interest
     (EUR1.7 million) in Q3/2005 and

-    a lower market value of interest derivatives (EUR1.0 million) based on the
     mark-to-market valuation on September 30, 2005.


Profit before and after tax
Profit before income taxes amounted to EUR41.0 million after nine months 2005
compared to EUR15.0 million in the same year earlier period. With a tax rate
of approximately 42%, consolidated net profit in 9M/2005 more than tripled to
EUR23.6 million (9M/2004: EUR7.5 million). Taking into consideration the
loss from the divested Surface Protection business, profit after tax rose from
EUR-1.2 million in the first nine months of 2004 to EUR23.6 million in the
reported period. Earnings per share thus amounted to EUR0.42 compared to the
comparable figure of EUR -0.02 after 9M/2004.

Statement of Changes in Consolidated Equity
The equity ratio substantially improved to 28.2% at September 30, 2005, compared
to 21.4% at the beginning of this year due to the measures detailed in the
chapter Consolidated Balance Sheet of the shareholder letter as well as the net
profit of EUR23.6 million in the first nine months 2005.

Net Debt
Net debt at September 30, 2005, decreased to EUR300 million from EUR321
million at the end of 2004 mainly due to the operational free cash flow
generation of EUR20.8 million in the first nine months 2005. Gearing improved
to 0.9, achieving a value below 1 for the first time in years (31.12.2004: 1.1).
SGL Carbon continues to expect net debt at the end of 2005 to be below EUR300
million.

Corporate Costs
Corporate costs increased from EUR18.9 million in the first nine months 2004
to EUR20.6 million in the reporting period. This was primarily attributable
to expenses in connection to the implementation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as
well as the first time inclusion of share-based remuneration components under
the provisions of IRFS 2 from January 1, 2005, onwards and higher bonus accruals
compared to 2004.


                                      2/6


Employees
The number of employees in the Group remained virtually unchanged at 5,096 as of
September 30, 2005, compared to a total of 5,097 as of June 30, 2005, thereby
remaining below the level of 5,109 as of December 31, 2004.


Segment Reporting

Carbon and Graphite (CG)
Sales increased by 13.4% to EUR468.0 million in the first nine months 2005.
Adjusted for foreign currency changes, sales growth was 15.4%. Due to the
continuing good demand for graphite electrodes, higher prices and ongoing cost
reduction measures, EBIT in the reporting period increased by 26.9% to
EUR90.0 million. The slightly lower return on sales compared to H1/2005
(19.4%) is a result of the seasonally typical lower production volumes in the
third quarter. The average price for graphite electrodes increased by 13% in
US-Dollar and by 5% in Euro compared to the first nine months of the previous
year. Total shipments amounted to 165.000 metric tons in the first nine months
of this year, 7.8% higher than in the comparable period last year (153.000
metric tons). As expected, raw material and energy costs increased by around
10%. For the full year 2005 SGL Carbon is expecting a sales increase comparable
to the growth in the first nine months 2005 and an EBIT, which will again show a
more than proportionate growth by up to 30% over the full year 2004.

Specialties (S)
Due to a good development in demand particularly from the industrial and
automotive industries, sales in the reporting period increased by 6.8% to
EUR188.1 million. Currency movements had no impact on the sales growth. EBIT
in Q3/2005 increased by a strong 42.9% to EUR6.0 million compared with
Q3/2004, with the improvement coming from both GS and PT. Due to the weak
Q1/2005, the Specialties EBIT in the first nine months 2005 remained marginally
below the strong year earlier period, whereby PT's result was already

                                      3/6


significantly above the comparable 2004 result, but GS's still slightly below.
For the full year 2005 the Company expects Specialties to achieve a sales
increase of about 5% and a more than proportionate growth in EBIT of slightly
above 10% over the full year 2004.

SGL Technologies (SGL T)
Due to the continued good demand for Fibres, Composites and Brakes, sales rose
by 22.8% to EUR120.2 million. After adjusting for foreign currency changes,
growth amounted to 23.8%. The EBIT in the first nine months 2005 of EUR3.1
million benefited from a low single digit million profit contribution from the
AUDI cooperation agreement in Q3/2005, as already announced in our H1/2005
report. For the full year 2005, SGL Carbon continues to expect a break even in
EBIT compared to a loss of EUR10 million in the year 2004.

Outlook
Group EBIT in Q4/2005 is expected to be lower than in Q3/2005 due to the
shortfall of the profit contribution from the AUDI cooperation agreement as well
as a traditionally weak December in GS. Nevertheless, EBIT in Q4/2005 will
likely be more than four times as high as the result of Q4/2004 (EUR5.2
million). For the full year 2005 SGL Carbon anticipates group sales to increase
a little above 10% and group EBIT to rise more than proportionately to above 60%
as well as a positive after tax result.

Remark
------
Effective January 6, 2005. SGL Carbon concluded the sale of its investment in
SGL ACOTEC GmbH, which included SGL's Surface Protection business. The effects
resulting from this transaction were already recognised in the annual financial
statements for 2004. The Process Technology (PT) business remaining in the Group

                                      5/6


was integrated within the Specialties (S) Business Area together with the
Graphite Specialties (GS) business. Only the comparable results of continuing
operations are presented in this interim report.

According to IFRS 2, share-based payments such as stock option plans and share
bonus programs for employees and members of senior management are included under
staff costs, effective January 1, 2005. Based on current calculation, this
change burdens the result of the segments and corporate costs by a total of
approximately EUR2 million each quarter in 2005.

As already discussed at the year-end press conference in March 2005, the
extraordinary restructuring measures have now been largely completed. Therefore,
profit from operations (EBIT) no longer includes a separate presentation of
restructuring expenses.
