Aumann AG, Beelen
the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically curtailed global economic activity in recent months. For Aumann's largest customer industry, the automotive sector, the pandemic came at a highly inopportune moment. Unsettled consumers, trade policy disputes, declining vehicle sales and high transformation costs towards E-mobility were already the defining features of a crisis in a globally networked industry. On top of this, COVID-19 brought isolation, consumption chagrin, the collapse of supply chains and plant closures. New car registrations in Europe are still around 30% below the prior-year level, while in the US they are down by approximately a fifth and in China by more than 10%. Of course this does not leave us without a trace. Our customers' agendas are dominated by cost-cutting programmes. Excess capacity must be managed and investments are scrutinised, stopped or postponed. Safeguarding business and enhancing efficiency have become the credo at a time when the transformation towards climate neutrality through electromobility should be gathering momentum.
Aumann did not match its prior-year figures at the end of the third quarter of 2020. The lingering uncertainty on the market environment is translating into pronounced restraint on investments in production lines. Thus, after the first nine months, our order intake fell short of the figure for the previous year at €122.7 million. While down significantly in the Classic segment, the E-mobility segment at least outperformed the figures for the first and second quarters of 2020 in the third quarter. By September 2020, our revenue fell significantly by 38.4% to €123.7 million. By contrast, the decline in the E-mobility segment was relatively moderate at 6.9% to €79.8 million. Adjusted for non-recurring effects, EBITDA was positive again in the third quarter of 2020 at €0.8 million. Cumulatively over the year to date, it amounted to €0.1 million despite the challenging market situation. This corresponds to an adjusted EBITDA margin of 0.1%. EBITDA was adjusted for non-recurring effects that predominantly relate to the closure of our plant in Hennigsdorf.
For now, our market environment will remain extremely demanding, and further restrictions due to a possible heightening of the COVID-19 pandemic are increasingly likely. Until the market situation normalises, we will continue to drive the variables that we can influence. To safeguard our business viability, we managed to increase our liquidity to €90.3 million as at 30 September 2020. Our equity ratio was a solid 67.1%. We have continued to adjust our capacity and structures in order to remain competitive. For example, capacity was already reduced by roughly one quarter as at the end of September 2020. These measures are improving Aumann's position for the time after the crisis.
Sincerely,
Rolf Beckhoff Chief Executive Officer
Sebastian Roll Chief Financial Officer

Aumann is a world-leading manufacturer of innovative speciality machinery and automated production lines with a focus on E-mobility, and maintains sites on the world's three most important automotive markets – Europe, the US and China. The company combines complex and innovative winding technology for the highly efficient production of electric motors with decades of automation experience, particularly in the automotive industry. Leading companies around the world rely on Aumann solutions for the series production of purely electric and hybrid vehicle drives and for production automation. Given the longterm growth potential in E-mobility, Aumann's products in the E-mobility segment focus on the development and production of automated production lines for electric powertrain components. The company has its own technologies, some of which unique, for the automated mass production of both electric engines and energy storage. Aumann's manufacturing solutions thus cover essential technologies for key electric powertrain components.
Following the slump in global production over the first half of 2020 due to the coronavirus, the end of the hard lockdown was, at first, followed by a significant economic recovery in individual economies. Nonetheless, the expectation of comprehensive economic normalisation for 2020 as a whole remained modest. In particular, potential setbacks in terms of how the pandemic might continue to unfold kept expectations in check, as did ongoing trade conflicts.
Thus, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is forecasting that global gross domestic product (GDP) will shrink by 4.4% in 2020. While GDP in the US is expected to decline by 4.3%, a more severe recession is anticipated in the euro area, with GDP set to contract by 8.3%. In particular, it is believed that the countries in the south of Europe will suffer significantly from the effects of the pandemic, with double-digit GDP declines predicted for Italy (down 10.6%) and Spain (down 12.8%). However, the IMF has projected a historically weak 2020 GDP performance in France (down 9.8%) and Germany (down 6.0%) as well. China, which was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic sooner and thus recovered from the related measures before other economies, is expected to end 2020 with positive GDP growth of 1.9%, still a historically low level.
Above all, the auto sector has suffered from the unprecedented economic slump and the global investment restraint that has resulted. In the first nine months of 2020, 7.8 million fewer new cars were sold overall on the three major markets – Europe, the US and China – than in the same period of the previous year. Over this period, new car registrations in Europe are still around 30% below the prior-year level, while in the US they are down by approximately a fifth and in China by more than 10%.
At least for European new car registrations, an increase was reported again for the first time in September 2020 – of 3.1% or 0.9 million more vehicles than in September 2019. Developments on the key European markets have varied considerably. In Spain and France, the declines in new registrations were still in the double digits. By contrast, they rose significantly by 9.5% and 8.4% respectively in Italy and Germany. The US vehicle market (cars and light commercial vehicles) grew by 6.2% to 1.3 million new vehicles in September. A prior-year month was therefore outperformed for the first time since February. Car sales on the Chinese market rose by 12.8% to around 2.6 million new cars in September. This was the sixth month of growth in a row. Despite these recent, more encouraging developments, the COVID-19 pandemic means that 2020 as a whole is not expected to see an increase in global new registrations.
The members of the German Mechanical Engineering Industry Association (VDMA) are also losing hope for a quick economic recovery. Only around a fifth of companies now expect a return to 2019 revenue volumes in 2021. Also, capacity utilisation within the sector has fallen to significantly less than 80%, putting it back at the low level of 2010 and unmistakeably below the long-term average of 86%. In net terms, the VDMA is projecting a drop in production of 17% for 2020 as a whole. It does not expect production to grow again, by around 2%, until 2021.
The consolidated revenue of the Aumann Group declined by 38.4% to €123.7 million (previous year: €200.8 million).
EBITDA came to €-3.8 million by September (previous year: €18.3 million). After depreciation and amortisation of €4.1 million, the Aumann Group's EBIT amounted to €-7.9 million (previous year: €14.8 million). The financial result for the first nine months was €-0.5 million with EBT of €-8.4 million (previous year: €14.3 million). Consolidated net profit totalled €-6.0 million (previous year: €9.6 million) or €-0.39 per share (based on an average of 15,250,000 shares outstanding) in the first nine months. This figure was adjusted for non-recurring expenses of €3.9 million, €3.5 million of which were incurred for the discontinuation of operations at the Hennigsdorf site, with a further €0.4 million relating to capacity reductions at other locations. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to €0.1 million. In addition to the adjustments described
above, there were impairment losses of €0.3 million on the assets of the Hennigsdorf location, bringing adjusted EBIT to €-3.6 million.
Order intake totalled €122.7 million as at the end of September. Orders of €7.2 million were cancelled over this period. The order backlog came to €126.4 million in the first nine months.
The Group's equity amounted to €197.7 million on 30 September 2020 (31 December 2019: €203.2 million). Based on total consolidated assets of €294.6 million, the equity ratio was 67.1%.
Working capital has fallen by €8.2 million since 31 December 2019.
Financial liabilities declined by €3.3 million to €18.0 million as at 30 September 2020 (31 December 2019: €21.3 million). Cash funds, including securities, totalled €90.3 million (31 December 2019: €95.3 million). Accordingly, net cash from the above liabilities and cash items amounted to €72.3 million as against €74.0 million on 31 December 2019.
Given their different market prospects, Aumann differentiates between the E-mobility and Classic segments, which are described in more detail below.
In its E-mobility segment, Aumann predominantly manufactures speciality machinery and automated production lines with a focus on the automotive industry. Aumann's offering enables customers to carry out the highly efficient and technologically advanced mass production of a wide range of electric power-train components and modules – from e-traction engines, drive and transmission components and power-ondemand units to various energy storage systems and electronic components. Aumann has a particular strategic focus on production lines for e-motor components and their assembly. Using highly specialised and, in some cases, unique winding and assembly technologies with which copper wire is introduced to electric components, these enable series production thanks to product solutions featuring innovative and efficient process flows. Another key strategic area is highly automated production lines for the production of energy storage systems. Aumann continued to realise high-end production and assembly solutions with its customers in this area in the current financial year. Major customers from the automotive industry use Aumann technology to manufacture the latest generation of electric motors and sophisticated, energy storage systems of the utmost quality. Aumann's product range also includes production solutions for electric auxiliary motors and product-related services such as maintenance, repair and spare parts delivery.
Revenue in the E-mobility segment contracted by 6.9% year-on-year to €79.8 million as at 30 September. The segment's EBITDA amounted to €-1.2 million after the first nine months (previous year: €8.1 million). Adjusted for non-recurring expenses, EBITDA totalled €2.4 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.0%. EBIT amounted to €-3.9 million (previous year: €6.4 million). Adjusted for non-recurring expenses, EBIT came to €-0.05 million with an EBIT margin of -0.1%. Order intake in E-mobility totalled €70.4 million.
In the Classic segment, Aumann mainly manufactures specialist machinery and automated production lines for the automotive, consumer electronics, appliances and industry sectors. For example, Aumann's solutions include systems for the production of drive components that reduce CO2 emissions from combustion engine vehicles. Aumann also offers highly automated manufacturing and assembly solutions for the consumer electronics and appliances industries in addition to specific solutions for other sectors.
Revenue in the Classic segment amounted to €43.9 million in the first three quarters (previous year: €115.1 million). Segment EBITDA amounted to €-2.8 million as against the prior-year figure of €9.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA came to €-2.5 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of -5.6%. EBIT totalled €-4.1 million (previous year: €8.2 million). Adjusted for non-recurring expenses, EBIT amounted to €-3.8 million with an EBIT margin of -8.6%. Order intake in the Classic segment amounted to €52.3 million.
Not including temporary employees or trainees, the number of employees was 1,014 as at 30 September 2020.
A detailed presentation of the company's risks and opportunities can be found in the 2019 annual report at www.aumann.com. There have been no fundamental changes in risks and opportunities since the publication of the 2019 annual report.
As for the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, depending on the duration, intensity and effectiveness of the containment measures taken, there could still be a severe negative impact on the financial position and financial performance of the Aumann Group in the fourth quarter of 2020 and beyond.
According to current assessments, neither individual risks nor a combination/correlation of multiple risks would pose a threat to the Aumann Group as a going concern.
Aumann's risk management system is suitable for identifying risks early on and taking immediate action.
Management expects that the current forecast of revenues in the range between €180 and €200 million and a positive EBITDA margin of up to 5%, prior to any one-of charges, will be reached at the lower end of each range. This is based on the expectation that the economy, after the economic low point in the second quarter of 2020, will slightly recover in the further course of the year and that the COVID-19 pandemic will not worsen further.

The interim financial report of the Aumann Group for the period 1 January to 30 September 2020 was prepared on the basis of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) published by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted in the EU. It was prepared in accordance with IAS 34.
The accounting policies adopted are the same as those applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2019. The preparation of the financial statements is influenced by accounting policies and assumptions and estimates affecting the amount and reporting of recognised assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities and income and expense items. Matters relating to revenue are deferred intra-year.
The carrying amount of goodwill is unchanged at €38,484 thousand (31 December 2019: €38,484 thousand). Goodwill was tested for impairment on account of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The impairment test as at 30 June 2020 confirmed the recoverability of all capitalised goodwill.
The Aumann Group's management classifies the segments as described in the interim Group management report.
