ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct.

1, 2006--Viasystems, Inc., a global provider of printed circuit boards and electro-mechanical components and assemblies announced today that as a result of significant ongoing increases in raw material costs, it is increasing prices to its printed circuit board customers.

This price increase is the second interim price increase implemented this year, as a result of these continuing increases on its cost base.

"We have seen the prices of raw copper, crude oil, gold and silver hit record highs.

This unprecedented increase in commodity costs has driven our material suppliers to increase their prices to us, specifically laminate, copper foil and resin costs.

These material cost increases, together with ongoing labor rate and currency exchange rate inflation, have adversely impacted our cost base, where we have experienced increases as high as 20-30 per cent.
