The research is aimed to analyze text presentations of companies profiles and their products information. The topic is included under Wirtschaftsdeutsch, or “German for Business and Economics.” The analysis of sentences and the elements contained in the text presentation of 14 companies draws upon the theories of speech act analysis by various experts in linguistics, such as Austin, Searle, and Engel. The functions of sentence elements are studied based on the theory of dependency grammar put forward by Engel. There are 85 sentences as the data. The speech act dominating the text presentation of the companies' profiles under study is notification in a narrow sense, that is, exercitation, and it refers to the interlocutor as hearer. The dominating elements in the sentences of the companies' profiles under research are subjects and Akkusativergänzungen (indirect object). Meanwhile, product presentations are dominated by nominal phrases.
