Letter from the Chairman of the Executive Board

Dear Shareholders,

Following the difficult first months of 2020 caused by the COVID-19 crisis, the elumeo Group managed to recover significantly in the following second quarter of 2020.

In order to take account of the poorer product supply due to the coronavirus, we shortened the daily live broadcasting time from 18 hours to 12 hours from 1 April 2020 and introduced short-time working throughout the Group in line with this. The cost reductions contributed significantly to the considerably improved earnings in the second quarter of 2020.

In addition, we were able to significantly improve the margin in the second quarter of 2020 as planned. We were thus able to close the quarter with a positive result. This means that we have been able to improve our results significantly compared to both the previous year and the previous quarter.

The web shop also contributed to the significant improvement in earnings by posting high growth rates. In the future as well, we will continue to launch initiatives aimed at boosting our revenue and r This includes being able to broadcast more show programmes at the same time in different languages and expanding our activities in the areas of social media and mobile commerce.

We would like to thank you for placing your trust in our company and look forward to working with you on the path to a successful future.

In August 2020

Wolfgang Boyé (Chairman of the Executive Board)

Principles

The principles of the elumeo Group described in the Annual Report for financial year 2019 that ended .

Economic Report

Macroeconomic environment in the first half of 2020

The elumeo Group is active in seven countries of the euro region as well as in Switzerland and the United King-dom.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are reflected in the overall economic development. Based on information from Eurostat, the gross domestic product (GDP) in the euro zone fell by 3.6% in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the previous quarter. The decline was 2.2% in Germany, which accounts for a significant share of sales revenues.

The government COVID-19 measures imposed worldwide lead to far-reaching restrictions in most areas of life and economic activity. The effects on trade must be considered in a differentiated manner. The elumeo Group was able to stabilise its business despite supply chain interruptions, particularly in the second quarter.

Industry-specific conditions

The elumeo Group most important direct sales channels include TV home shopping channels and online shops and apps for smartphones. A study conducted by the Society for the Promotion of Consumer Electronics in Germany (gfu) shows that smart TVs are becoming increasingly popular. According to the gfu, nearly half of German households now own an Internet-capable TV set. (2018: 46% and 2017: 42%). The use of smart functions is also increasing. After 56% in 2017 and 61% in 2018, around 67% of those surveyed said they would use smart functions in 2019. At 80%, the figure for the younger generation of 16 to 39-year-olds is significantly higher than the figure for those over 60 (56%).

Overall, the economic environment can be classified as at least volatile due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

We also refer to the disclosures in the 2019 Annual Report.

Business development in the first half of 2020

For the elumeo Group, the first

In the first half of 2020, the economic development of the elumeo Group was characterised by the following significant events:

While product supply from China initially came to a standstill, supplies from India have also become difficult in the meantime. This led to the firs -inchain, especially in the first quarter of 2020. To take account of the poorer product supply, the daily live broadcasting time was shortened from 18 hours to 12 hours as of 1 April 2020 as a precautionary measure and, in line with this, short-time working was introduced throughout the Group.

Adjusted for the revenue from the closed site in Rome, there was a slight increase in revenue of 0.4%. The classic web shop is the main driver here, with sales in the second quarter of 2020 rising by a total of 53.2% to EUR 2.4 million. Gross profit increased by 70.2% to EUR 1.3 million (based on merchandise data). This strong growth is due to the measures already implemented in 2019, which include the provision of video material as well as optimisations in SEA and SEO marketing.

Adjusted again for the gross profits from the site in Rome that was closed, the margin increased by 20.0% QoQ in the second quarter of 2020. The rapid changeover of the supply chain due to the Coronavirus was a key success factor.

Selling expenses in the second quarter of 2020 fell by 8.3% compared to the previous year. Administrative expenses also decreased QoQ by 10.0%. The reductions are mainly due to the closure of the site in Rome, as well as the reduced airtime and the resulting cost reductions.

Overall, a total Group loss of EUR -1.3 million was achieved in the first half of 2020 after a loss of EUR -2.2 million in the first half of 2019. For the second quarter of 2020, the consolidated net result was positive at EUR 0.1 million.

The key financial indicator, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation adjusted for non-operating segment reconciliation items (total segment EBITDA), improved to EUR -0,4 million in the second quarter of 2020 after EUR -0.5 million in the second quarter of 2019 (first half of 2020: EUR -0.7 million, first half of 2019: EUR -1.8 million).

Selling expenses decreased considerably to EUR 0.9 million in the first half of 2020 compared to the first half of 2019. While range costs increased slightly year-on-year, other selling expenses were significantly lower. On the one hand, this is due to the discontinuation of the site in Rome. On the other hand, due to the reduction in airtime and the associated cost reductions and short-time working, in the second quarter of 2020 in particular.

Administrative expenses mainly consist of personnel expenses and other material costs. Administrative expenses fell slightly compared to the previous year partly due to reduced expenses for legal and consulting fees.

Due to the specific development of the exchange rates for foreign currencies on the balance sheet date, the income contained in other operating income is reversed in full or in part in the second quarter, resulting in negative amounts for net income from currency translation in the second quarters of 2020 and 2019.

Other operating expenses in the first half of 2020 mainly include net losses from currency translation. In addition, income of EUR 0.7 million from the derecognition of assets and liabilities of the UK subsidiaries is included in the first half of 2019.

Overall, the result from operating activities (EBIT) improved to EUR +0.1 million in the second half of 2020 compared to EUR -1.1 million in the second half of 2019. (first half of 2020: EUR -1.2 million; first half of 2019: EUR -2.0 million).

Earnings per share were EUR +0.23 in the first half of 2020 (first half of 2019: EUR -0.39). Total consolidated income improved in the first half of 2020 to EUR -1.3 million after EUR -2.2 million in the first half of 2019.

On the liabilities side of the balance sheet, equity decreased as of 30 June 2020 due to the negative result after income taxes. The equity ratio as of 30 June 2020 was around 14.1% of total assets, compared to 19.1% as of 31 December 2019.

Non-current liabilities essentially remained unchanged.

Current liabilities have not changed significantly overall. Compared to 31 December 2019, however, financial liabilities declined due to the repayment of loan liabilities. The lower provisions mainly relate to those in connection with the closure of the site in Rome. Trade payables increased due to higher merchandise purchases in the second quarter of 2020. Other liabilities include deferred social security contributions, among other things, and were also higher as a result of this compared to 31 December 2019. In accordance with the agreement, social security contributions are repaid in approx. 12 instalments of approx. EUR 34 thousand each.

Financial position

Net cash flow from operating activities in the first half of 2020 totalled EUR +1.1 million (first half of 2019: EUR -0.2 million). In addition to an improved result, improved working capital also contributed significantly to this result.

Net cash flow from investing activities showed only a low cash outflow due to the low level of investment activities.

Net cash flow from financing activities amounted to around EUR -0.6 million in the first half of 2020 (first half of 2019: EUR -1.5 million) and mainly relates to the agreed repayment of Berliner

As of 30 June 2020, the elumeo Group had cash and cash equivalents (cash in hand and sight deposits with banks) of EUR 1.2 million (31 December 2019: EUR 0.9 million).

Segment Reporting

With regard to internal management and external communication of current and future earnings trends, portance. Therefore, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (segment EBITDA) adjusted for non-operating special factors serves as the key financial indicator for the presentation and control of the operating earnings situation. To calculate segment EBITDA before special items, EBITDA before special items is adjusted for non-recurring and/or non-operating (special) items by type and amount. Non-operating items are deferred for each item in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Segment reporting follows the internal reporting structures and internal control criteria and complies with IFRS accounting principles.

Segment Continuing Operations

The segment Continuing operations consists of the sales division and Group functions & eliminations.

While sales revenues of the sales division were still declining by quarterly comparison (-14.6% QoQ), the gross profit margin has already developed positively (first quarter of 2020: 56.9%, first quarter of 2019: 45.4%).

As a result of the extensive cost reduction measures and the improved margin, total segment EBITDA already showed a clearly positive development in both the second quarter of 2020 and the first half of 2020. Total segment EBITDA improved by EUR +1.1 million to EUR -0.7 million in the first half of 2020 and by EUR +0.8 million to EUR +0.4 million in the second quarter of 2020.

The elumeo Group presents its risk management system in detail in its 2019 Annual Report. The Executive Board is not currently aware of any significant changes to the risks and opportunities for the elumeo Group that are described in detail in the Annual Report.

Forecast Report

The effects of the COVID-19 crisis have prevented elumeo from achieving its original targets for the first half of 2020. This was due in particular to delays in delivery in the supply chain managed by elumeo on a just-in-time basis.

As a result, elumeo took extensive countermeasures at the beginning of March. The supply chains were reorganised, home offices were introduced where possible and from 1 April 2020 and the daily live broadcasting time was reduced from 18 to 12 hours. We also introduced short-time working throughout the Group.

This has led to significant cost savings since April. The reduction in airtime was well received by our customers. In the second quarter of 2020, elumeo was able to significantly reduce operating costs and significantly improve its margin, both compared to the previous quarter and to the previous year, thanks to the far-reaching measures taken. The web shop in particular developed well above expectations and made a significant contribution to improving operating performance.

With regard to the forecast compared to the previous year, we refer to the segments Sales Germany and Other as well as Group Functions & Eliminations, excluding the closed site in Rome.

elumeo had refined the outlook for the full year in the quarterly announcement for the first quarter of 2020 and had already slightly raised the forecast from the 2019 annual financial statements. Based on the development in the second quarter of 2020, elumeo continues to assume that revenue will grow in the low single-digit percentage range compared to the previous year. At the same time, gross profit is still expected to grow in the low double-digit % range. Despite the positive development in the second quarter of 2020, elumeo is sticking to its previous forecast that earnings will only improve slightly compared to the previous year (total segment EBITDA in 2019: EUR -2.1 million). The targeted break-even result is subject to great forecast uncertainty due to the still volatile economic situation caused by the COVID-19 crisis. In p -in-

With regard to operating costs, elumeo does not expect any significant change in costs. In total, elumeo now expects that the result will improve significantly compared to the previous year (total segment EBITDA 2019: EUR -2.1 million) and will be around break-even.

This forecast is based on the following assumptions: Firstly, elumeo assumes that the measures taken by the Federal Government to overcome the COVID-19 crisis, in particular those relating to shorttime working, will be maintained in the form currently adopted. Secondly, it is of great importance that elumeo is able to successfully manage its reconfigured supply chain in its current form and that no further deterioration occurs. Thirdly, the forecast is based on the assumption that the good demand from customers will remain stable. We cannot rule out the possibility that the ongoing COVID-19 crisis could lead to further massive bottlenecks in product supply, which would jeopardise a balanced result (total segment EBITDA).

In order to be able to guarantee the solvency of the Group at all times, it will be necessary to reduce the inventories owned by the elumeo Group in 2020, depending on the course of business. With the corresponding options for reducing inventories, the elumeo Group can react flexibly and at short notice to further economic developments. In this context, the Executive Board of the elumeo Group has drawn up various scenarios and has sufficient liquidity in all scenarios to service due liabilities in the financial years 2020 and 2021.

(1) Principles and methods

Information on the company

sted company in the legal form of a European Company (Societas Europaea) and the parent company of the elumeo Group. The Company is registered in section B of the Commercial Register of Berlin-Charlottenburg under no. 157 001 B and has its headquarters at Erkelenzdamm 59/61, 10999 Berlin, Germany.

Continuing operations of the elumeo Group

The elumeo Group is active in designing, producing and selling jewelry, jewelry articles, precious gemstones and related products via television and other, primarily electronic distribution channels means of distribution are live interactive offerings that enable customers to bid against each other to compete for the pieces of jewelry presented and set the price.

In financial year 2019, the Executive Board of elumeo SE had decided to close the office in Rome and to serve the Italian market from its headquarters in Berlin in the future, analogous to how the elumeo Group serves its other European markets.

Discontinued operations of the elumeo Group

In financial year 2018, it was decided to discontinue the business activities of the production oduction company in an orderly manner under its own management by selling the existing assets discontinued by the end of 2018.

As a result of several developments in financial year 2019, it is almost certain that an orderly liquidation of PWK under its own management is no longer realisable. PWK was therefore deconsolidated retroactively as of 31 December 2018 in the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ending December 31, 2019.

General information

The unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements comprise the period from 1 January to 30 s the period from 1 April to 30 second quarter of ). The presentation of selected prior-year figures in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements differs from the presentation in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements published on 30 September 2019 for the reporting period from 1 January to 30 to the correction of prior-year figures. The comparative figures for the previous year have been restated in the period comparison are referred to as half-year to half-

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in euros accordance with commercial rounding. For computational reasons, rounding differences may occur in tables and text references to the mathematically exact values (monetary units, percentages, etc.).

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared under the premise of continuing operations. The preparation of the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements is in principle based on the recognition of assets and liabilities at amortized cost. The Consolidated Statement of Income has been prepared using the cost of sales method. The Consolidated Statement of Financial Position classifies assets and liabilities to current or non-current according to their maturities. The Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income is prepared to reconcile the earnings for the period in the Consolidated Statement of Income to total comprehensive income. As part of the consolidation of intra-group receivables and liabilities and intra-group expenses and income, all intra-group balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements contain all information necessary for a fair presentation and assessment of the assets, financial and earnings position of the Group. The results presented in interim reporting periods are not necessarily indicative of the results in future reporting periods or the full financial year.

The Interim Consolidated Financial Statements were not subjected to either an audit or an audit review.

The Executive Board approved the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements on 12 August 2020.

Adjustment of the

Deconsolidation of subsidiaries of discontinued operations

activities in the United Kingdom and Thailand were allocated to discontinued operations and discontinued operation PWK ). They were deconsolidated, with the exception of the transfer of the foreign currency translation reserve from equity to the result of the discontinued operations as the legal entities of the subsidiaries concerned still existed. The management of the elumeo Group decided, particularly in light of the developments in the discontinued operation PWK in financial year 2019, in which a controlled winding up of the business is no longer possible, to adjust the accounting principle used for deconsolidation in financial year 2018 and to carry out a complete deconsolidation in the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2019, including the recycling of the currency translation reserve, with retrospective effect from 31 December 2018.

The adjustment reduced the foreign currency translation reserve reported in Group equity as of 31 December 2018 by EUR 3,477 thousand from EUR 5,653 thousand to EUR 2,175 thousand. Correspondingly, the cumulative losses reported for financial year 2018 decreased by EUR 3,477 thousand from EUR -38,856 thousand to EUR -35,379 thousand, so that there was no change in Group equity overall.

In the Consolidated Statement of Income for financial year 2018, the result from discontinued operations after income taxes improved by EUR 3,477 thousand from EUR -6,913 thousand to EUR -3,436 thousand.

In addition, the assets (assets held for sale) and liabilities (liabilities in connection with the sales of assets held) as well as expenses and income (result of the discontinued operation UK after income taxes) still allocated to the subsidiaries of the discontinued UK operation in the previous Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for financial year 2019 were thus also adjusted during the course of the year so that they were no longer recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as of 1 January 2019. This also resulted in a reduction in cash and cash equivalents of EUR 121 thousand due to the scope of consolidation.

The prior-year comparative figures presented in these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements restated solidated Financial Statements H1 2019 no longer include any discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.

In the Consolidated Statement of Income, the result after income taxes in the second quarter of 2020 improved by EUR 165 thousand from EUR -1,300 thousand to EUR -1,135 thousand. The improvement in earnings resulted from:

• an improvement in earnings of EUR 195 thousand from effects in connection with the deconsolidation of the discontinued operation PWK (mainly net losses from currency translation and interest expenses) (earnings for the period from discontinued operations).

  • deterioration in earnings of EUR -182 thousand from value adjustments of receivables of the continuing operations from deconsolidated subsidiaries of the discontinued operation UK (other operating expenses).
  • deterioration in earnings of EUR -13 thousand for interest expenses of the continuing operations resulting from the compounding of long-term provisions for uncertain liabilities in terms of type, amount and utilisation in connection with the discontinued operation PWK. These were previously reported in the result from discontinued operations after income taxes.
  • an improvement in earnings of EUR 101 thousand from the correction of the currency translation of intercompany liabilities and receivables in connection with the discontinued operation (other operating income). Instead of net losses from currency translation (other operating expenses), net income is now reported in the result.
  • an improvement in results of EUR 64 thousand from various other corrections in connection with the discontinued operation UK (result from discontinued operations after income taxes)

In the Consolidated Statement of Income, the result after income taxes in the first half of 2019 improved by EUR 1,903 thousand from EUR -4,057 thousand to EUR -2,153 thousand. The improvement in earnings mainly consists of:

  • an improvement in earnings of EUR 1,351 thousand from effects in connection with the deconsolidation of the discontinued operation PWK (mainly net losses from currency translation and interest expenses) (earnings from discontinued operations after taxes)
  • an improvement in earnings of EUR 722 thousand from effects in connection with the deconsolidation of the discontinued operation UK (other operating income)
  • deterioration in earnings of EUR -185 thousand from value adjustments of receivables of the continuing operations from deconsolidated subsidiaries of the discontinued operation UK (other operating expenses),
  • deterioration in earnings of EUR -25 thousand for interest expenses of the continuing operations from the compounding of long-term provisions for obligations uncertain in terms of type, amount and utilisation in connection with the discontinued operation PWK. These were previously reported in the result from discontinued operations after income taxes.
  • an improvement in earnings of EUR 42 thousand from the correction of the currency translation of intercompany liabilities and receivables in connection with the discontinued operations (other operating income). Instead of net losses from currency translation (other operating expenses), net income is now reported in the result.
  • deterioration in earnings of EUR -3 thousand from various other corrections in connection with the discontinued operation UK (earnings for the period from discontinued operations)

As a result of the correction as of 31 December 2018, the currency translation reserve reported in Group equity as of 30 June 2019 decreased by EUR 4,840 thousand from EUR 7,011 thousand to EUR 2,171 thousand, of which EUR 3,477 thousand is attributable to recycling in 2018 and EUR 1,363 thousand to the changes in the currency translation reserve previously recognised in other comprehensive income from discontinued operations in the first half of 2019.

As a result, the cumulative losses reported for the first half of 2019 decreased by EUR 5,381 thousand from EUR -42,913 thousand to EUR -37,532 thousand. Of this amount, EUR 3,477 thousand is attributable to the result carried forward from 2018 and EUR 1,903 thousand to the above-mentioned effects on the result after taxes in the first half of 2019.

Due to the deconsolidation of the discontinued operation UK, assets held for sale (previously: EUR 38 thousand) and liabilities in connection with assets held for sale (previously: EUR 579 thousand) are no longer shown in the adjusted Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of 30 June 2019. The presentation of an adjusted Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of 30 June 2019 has been waived.

In addition, there were effects on the presentation of the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and segment reporting. The prior-year comparative information has been adjusted accordingly.

Change in disclosure of rights of use in accordance with IFRS 16 as of 1 January 2019

In accordance with IFRS 16, the elumeo Group is reporting the rights of use (leasing) under property, plant and equipment retrospectively as of 1 January 2019 in line with the audited 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements. In the previous consolidated interim reporting for financial year 2019, they were reported under intangible assets.

As of 30 June 2019, rights of use in the amount of EUR 3,800 thousand are therefore reported under property, plant and equipment. The development of fixed assets presented in these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements was adjusted accordingly. The presentation of the Consolidated Statement of Income remains unaffected.

Material discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions

Preparing the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with IFRSs requires that the Executive Board and extended management team make certain discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions that have an impact on the accounting and valuation methods applied and the asset, financial and earnings position presented as well as the related disclosures. Although these discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions are made to the best knowledge of the Executive Board and extended management based on current events and measures, actual results may differ from these discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions. All discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions are therefore reviewed continuously.

Significant discretionary decisions were made in particular with regard to the following material matters:

  • Recognition and measurement of provisions for future obligations of uncertain nature, amount and utilisation in connection with the discontinued operation PWK,
  • Recognition and measurement of provisions for future obligations in connection with legal disputes that are uncertain in terms of nature, amount and utilisation.

There have been no material changes compared to the figures as of 31 December 2019. For further information, please refer to section [F. Significant discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions] of the Notes to the 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements.

(2) Scope of consolidation

Comparability of disclosures

The parent company elumeo SE and its directly or indirectly controlled subsidiaries (collectively

gures have been corrected. This led to the following retrospective change in the group of consolidated companies of the elumeo Group in the first half of 2019 (restated*):

  • The production company PWK Jewelry Company Limited was deconsolidated retroactively as of 31 December 2018, including the recycling of the currency translation reserve (discontinued operation PWK).
  • The subsidiaries Rocks and Co Productions Ltd., Leamington Spa, United Kingdom, and Rocks & Co UK Limited, Leamington Spa, United Kingdom, were deconsolidated retroactively as of 31 December 2018/1 January 2019, including the recycling of the currency translation reserve (discontinued operation UK).

Compared to the first half of 2019, the number of consolidated companies in the elumeo Group also changed as follows:

• The assets and liabilities of Juwelo France SAS, Paris, France, were transferred to Juwelo Deutschland GmbH, Berlin, Germany, by way of universal succession on 20 November 2019.

The scope of consolidation thus comprised seven companies (restated*) as of 30 June 2019 (previously: ten companies) and a total of six companies as of 30 June 2020.

Deconsolidation of associated companies

The consolidation of an associated company ends when elumeo SE loses control over the investee. The assets, liabilities, income and expenses of an investee sold in the course of a financial year are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements until the date on which elumeo SE ceases to exercise control over the investee.

If elumeo SE loses control of an associated company, the respective assets (including goodwill), liabilities, minority interests and other equity components are deconsolidated and any resulting gain or loss is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income. The disposal value must be adjusted for the assets and liabilities from the relationship with the associated company neutralised in the course of debt consolidation. Any minority interest remaining with the elumeo Group is re-measured at fair value.

(3) Foreign currency translation

The significant exchange rates for foreign currencies with an impact on the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are as follows:

(4) Revenue

The elumeo Group was unable to increase its revenues in the first half of 2020 compared to the previous year. This was mainly due to significantly lower revenues in the Italian market, which has been managed exclusively from the Berlin headquarters since financial year 2020.

While eCommerce revenues in total rose slightly by 0.8% (QoQ) in the second quarter of 2020, the revenues from the European web shop business included in this figure increased significantly. The TV business as well as the other eCommerce sales channels declined significantly by more than 25.0% by both quarterly (QoQ) and half-yearly (HoH) comparison, also due to the decline in revenues in the Italian market.

In response to the spread of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and the related effects on the economy and the labour market, the German federal government adopted the Regulation on Facilitating Short-Time Work on 25 March 2020, which came into force retroactively as of 1 March 2020, providing for certain temporary facilitations for access to short-time work benefits and, upon application, for reimbursement by the Federal Labour Agency of social security contributions to be borne by the employer.

In the second quarter of 2020, the elumeo Group applied for short-time working for some of the employees of a subsidiary and applied for reimbursement of social security contributions.

The short-time working allowance paid by the subsidiary in the second quarter of 2020 amounted to EUR 161 thousand (sales: EUR 110 thousand, administrative area: EUR 51 thousand) and was recorded as a transitory item with no effect on income. The claim for reimbursement of the shorttime working allowance was capitalised on the assumption that the personal and operational requirements were met. In addition, income from the reimbursement of social security contributions of EUR 128 thousand (sales: EUR 83 thousand, administrative area: EUR 45 thousand) was recognized in profit and loss as a deduction from personnel expenses. As of 30 June 2020, the elumeo Group reported refund claims against the Federal Employment Agency totalling EUR 114 thousand under the item Other non-financial assets.

(12) Earnings per share

Basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows:

In the financial years 2015 to 2019, the Executive Board issued option rights to purchase shares of the reporting date, in total 116,160 option rights were exercisable as the service period criterion is met. An additional 102,942 option rights will become exercisable on 18 July 2020. However, the exercise of the option rights of each tranche after the vesting period is linked to capital market-based performance targets.

The performance targets of all tranches issued were not met as of 30 June 2020 and 2019. The potential shares are therefore not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share, regardless of whether they have already been fully or proportionately vested. Irrespectively, according to IAS 33 Earnings per Share, potential shares are only to be considered dilutive if their conversion into shares reduces earnings per share or increases the loss per share (IAS 33.41). If, however, the conversion into shares results in an increase in earnings per share or a reduction in the loss per share, dilution protection is applied and the diluted earnings per share are to be adjusted to the amount of basic earnings per share (IAS 33.43). In conclusion, the diluted earnings per share correspond to the basic earnings per share.

All authorisations expired on 6 April 2020 due to the expiry of time.

Share-based remuneration

The number of outstanding option rights under the SOP 2015 amounted to 272,602 option rights on 30 June 2020 (30 June 2019: 249,507 option rights) and did not change compared to 31 December 2019:

Provisions developed as follows in the first half of 2020:

Expected customer returns

The elumeo Group records obligations resulting from the right of its customers to return delivered products within a period of 14 days after receipt of the delivery. The amount of the provision was estimated as of 30 June 2020, taking into account an extended right of return for the months April to June 2020.

Obligations of the Italian subsidiary from non-cancellable contracts and severance payments as well as other obligations in connection with the closure of the sales site

In November 2019, the Executive Board decided to close the sales office in Rome. In connection with this move, provisions for obligations arising from non-cancellable contracts and severance payments as well as other obligations totalling EUR 792 thousand were recognised as of 31 December 2019. Of this amount, a total of EUR 560 thousand was cash-effective in the first half of 2020. All provisions have a term of less than one year. The Italian subsidiary no longer had any operating business of its own as of the balance sheet date. The elumeo Group therefore assumes that the financial resources required to meet the obligations will continue to be provided by other companies in the elumeo Group.

Obligations uncertain in terms of nature, amount and utilisation in connection with the discontinued operation PWK

As of 31 December 2019, the elumeo Group reports long-term provisions amounting to EUR 4.5 million for the risk of future payments by Group companies of the elumeo Group to PWK or third parties. With the exception of the accrual of interest on provisions, there have been no changes to the assessment of the amount and timing of the estimated maximum pay-outs compared to the figures as of 31 December 2019.

EUR 54 thousand of the current provisions of EUR 175 thousand recognised as of 31 December 2019 for legal consulting and litigation costs were utilised in the first half of 2020.

For further information, please refer to sections [A.: Discontinued operations of the elumeo Group] and [F. Significant discretionary decisions, estimates and assumptions] of the 2019 Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(21) Tax liabilities

Since 31 December 2017, the elumeo Group has reported deferred tax liabilities for potential income tax risks relating to the financial years 2014 and 2015 in connection with an external tax audit at the subsidiary in Italy. A dispute settlement procedure (EU Arbitration Convention) was initiated on the results of the external audit. The elumeo Group assumes that the tax liabilities will continue to be due within one year.

(22) Other non-financial liabilities

Other non-financial liabilities as of the respective reporting date are as follows:

In connection with the potential impact of the coronavirus on the elumeo Group, individual repayment agreements with terms of up to 12 months have been concluded with the relevant health insurance companies for the main amounts as a precautionary measure.

(23) Notes to the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows

General information

The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows was prepared in accordance with IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and shows the change in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the elumeo Group through cash inflows and outflows in the course of the reporting period.

In accordance with IAS 7, cash flows are reported separately according to their origin and use from operating, investing and financing activities. Cash inflows and outflows from operating activities are derived indirectly from earnings before taxes (EBT). Cash inflows and outflows from investing and financing activities are determined directly. Cash and cash equivalents comprise freely available cash on hand, cheques and bank balances.

The positive cash flow from operating activities in the first half of 2020 includes an outflow of funds due to improved but still negative earnings before taxes (EBT) (H1 2020: EUR -1,270 thousand, H1 2019: EUR -2,153 thousand), which was caused by a reduction in inventories (H1 2020: EUR +1,352 thousand, H1 2019: EUR +4,721 thousand) or a balance sheet date related increase in other liabilities (H1 2020: EUR +1,409 thousand, H1 2019: decrease of EUR -2,498 thousand) (mainly trade payables and other liabilities). The cash inflow was offset by a decrease in provisions (H1 2020: EUR -731 thousand, H1 2019: EUR -415 thousand). Overall, the cash flow from operating activities in the first half of 2020 was EUR +1,049 thousand compared to EUR -160 thousand in the first half of 2019.

In the first half of 2019, the cash outflow was only compensated for by a significant reduction in inventories due to the significantly lower earnings before taxes (EBT), the decrease in provisions and the decrease in other liabilities. In the first half of 2019, earnings before taxes (EBT) also included significant non-cash income (EUR -727 thousand, mainly income from deconsolidations).

Cash flow from operating activities thus improved significantly compared to the same period of the previous year.

Cash flow from investing activities in the first half of 2020 totalled EUR -114 thousand (H1 2019: EUR -106 thousand).

Cash flow from financing activities comprises payments for the repayment of financial liabilities of EUR -446 thousand (H1 2019: EUR -1,200 thousand) (working capital loans) and other financial liabilities of EUR -158 thousand (H1 2019: EUR -341 thousand) (mainly leasing liabilities). Of the lease payments, EUR -156 thousand (H1 2019: EUR -203 thousand, including the site in Rome) relates to lease obligations from rights of use under real estate agreements and EUR 0 thousand (previous year: EUR -137 thousand) to lease obligations for technical equipment.

The change in cash and cash equivalents of EUR -121 thousand in the first half of 2019 due to changes in the consolidated Group relates exclusively to the subsidiaries of the discontinued operations UK.

Cash and cash equivalents as of 30 June 2020 result from the active inventory items of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. As of the balance sheet date, there are no negative components such as short-term overdrafts.

(24) Further disclosures on financial instruments

Disclosure of the fair values of financial instruments in accordance with IFRS 9

All financial assets and financial liabilities are alloc carrying amounts correspond to the fair values.

Measurement hierarchy in accordance with IFRS 13

With regard to the determination of the fair values of the financial instruments of the elumeo Group that are not measured at fair value in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position but whose fair value is disclosed in the Notes, there were no reclassifications between the measurement hierarchies in accordance with IFRS 13 in the first half of 2020.

(25) Segment reporting

Presentation of segments

Segment reporting is in accordance with internal reporting and control criteria.

In the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2019, the complete deconsolidation of PWK (discontinued operation PWK) took place as of 31 December 2018 by way of adjustment of prior-year figures. The segment Discontinued operation Manufactory was also deconsolidated retroactively as of 31 December 2018. The segment Continuing operations represented the only remaining operating segment.

As of 30 June 2020, the segment information exclusively includes the Sales division and Group functions & eliminations of the Continuing operationssegment.

The segment Discontinued operations Manufactory was still reported in the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the first half of the previous year 2019. It was no longer operationally active, but the costs of under-utilisation and opportunity costs of sales were allocated to it. Due to later developments in financial year 2019, the retrospective deconsolidation of the segment was only carried out in the 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements. The prior-year comparative information presented in these Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the first half of 2020 was therefore adjusted accordingly.

Furthermore, starting in financial year 2020, the (historical) costs of the under-utilisation of PWK and the opportunity costs of sales are no longer determined, as these are no longer considered to be material. For the purposes of comparison, these costs were likewise not included in the comparative information for the previous year.

Definition of the segment result

The Executive Board assesses the success of a segment and establishes performance targets for the future based on the revenue, gross profit and segment EBITDA (adjusted earnings figure). The adjusted earnings figure Segment EBITDA is basically defined as earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) after adjustment for segment reconciliation items.

In assessing operating performance, the segment reconciliation items presented in section [I.: Segment reporting │ Primary decision-maker and definition of the segment result] of the Notes to the 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements are generally identified as non-operating items.

For internal information purposes, the Executive Board had decided, as a result of the first-time application of IFRS 16 as of 1 January 2019, to supplement the internal reporting in such a way that the amount of lease payments made in each reporting period (as the sum of principal and interest) is to be disclosed as a separate financial indicator.

Segment reconciliation to Group earnings

Due to the deconsolidation of the discontinued operations, a detailed reconciliation of results is not necessary from financial year 2019 onwards, as the elumeo Group only has one operating segment with the Sales division as the main component. An adjustment of effects in connection with the discontinued operations is no longer necessary.

Segment reconciliation for the period from 1 April to 30 June 2020 (Q2 2020) and for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2020

Segment EBITDA can be reconciled to EBITDA derived from the Consolidated Statement of Income by taking the segment reconciliation items presented in the Notes to the 2019 Consolidated Financial Statements into account.

The segment EBITDA in the second quarter of 2020 amounted to EUR +374 thousand and can be reconciled to the EBITDA by adding:

  • net losses from currency translation totalling EUR -52 thousand (EUR 48 thousand reported under other operating income (reversal to expense items in the second quarter of 2020) and EUR 4 thousand under other operating expenses) and
  • share-based payments with compensation through equity instruments of EUR -5 thousand (administrative costs)

to the EBITDA of EUR +316 thousand derived from the Consolidated Statement of Income.

The segment EBITDA in the first half of 2020 was EUR -708 thousand and can be calculated by adding:

  • net losses from currency translation of EUR -4 thousand (other operating expenses) and
  • share-based payments with compensation through equity instruments of EUR -13 thousand (administrative costs)

to the EBITDA of EUR -725 thousand derived from the Consolidated Statement of Income.

All other reconciliations of EBITDA or EBIT to the consolidated result are derived from the Consolidated Statement of Income or the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Segment reconciliation for the period from 1 April to 30 June 2019 (Q2 2019) and for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2019

The segment EBITDA in the second quarter of 2019 amounted to EUR -440 thousand and can be calculated by adding:

  • net losses from currency translation of EUR -52 thousand in total (reported under other operating income of EUR -52 thousand (reversal in the second quarter of 2020))
  • share-based payments with compensation through equity instruments of EUR -15 thousand (administrative costs),
  • reconciliation effects of EUR -182 thousand from value adjustments on intragroup receivables from deconsolidated companies due to the scope of consolidation, and
  • turing facility PWK of EUR -69 thousand

to the EBITDA of EUR -758 thousand derived from the Consolidated Statement of Income.
