HALF-YEAR STATEMENT AS OF JUNE 30,
2020
Driving digital transformation SHAPING THE ENTIRE BUILDING LIFECYCLE

DR. AXEL KAUFMANN SPOKESMAN OF THE EXECUTIVE BOARD AND CHIEF FINANCIAL & OPERATIONS OFFICER (CFOO)
We closed the second quarter of 2020 with slight increases in revenue and earnings despite the global corona crisis. Overall, business development exceeded our own expectations.
After the corona crisis left its mark in the second quarter, especially in Europe, it is not yet possible to foresee the effects of the pandemic in the USA, where the crisis has spread much more strongly than in other parts of the world and at a later point in time. Nemetschek anticipates hurdles in this regard in the US market in the second half of the year.
The Nemetschek Group responded to the altered situation at an early stage and also maintained close customer contact during the corona crisis by means of virtual sales and support as well as online tutorials. In addition, executives worldwide were involved in intensifying cost management in the Group at an early stage.
Overall, the performance of the segments in the first half year was slightly above the levels expected, especially in view of the fact that the corona crisis spread to the US market with a time lag. In March, the Design segment was already feeling the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, which led to reduced customer demand and a decline in revenues. The Build and Manage segments were able to achieve low growth rates. The Media & Entertainment segment was considerably strengthened by the acquisition of Red Giant. The integration of the company, consolidated since January 2020, in the Maxon brand continues to proceed according to plan.
As a result of our broad solution portfolio, our high levels of diversification with regard to target industries and regions and the growing proportion of recurring revenue, we have weathered the corona crisis better than anticipated. The increase in service contracts and subscriptions in particular show the robustness of the Nemetschek business model, even and especially in today's uncertain market environment. At the same time, as a result of the fast deployment of countermeasures in relation to costs, we have been able to keep our profitability at a high level. However, we expect that the crisis will also have an impact on our business development in the second half of the year, especially in the USA. Thus, caution and vigilance remain our top priority. We continue to see great potential in our markets in the medium and long term. Nemetschek will keep on successfully driving the digital transformation in the construction industry forward.
The Nemetschek Group is always working on future-oriented solutions to further improve the workflow in the construction industry. Thus, for instance, in the Design segment with Integrated Design, a cross-brand workflow solution was presented for the first time which is revolutionizing collaboration between architects, structural engineers and civil engineers. With this integrated approach, it is possible for architects and engineers to work together on one model across disciplines for the first time, making unsynchronized work in silos and duplications a thing of the past.
As a result of the very solid first half year, growth trends in the relevant markets that remain intact in the long-term, ongoing increases in the proportion of plannable revenues and broad regional and market-related diversification of risk, the executive board confirms the revenue targets for the full year 2020, despite a still uncertain environment, and is optimistic to comfortably reach the targeted profitability. It also assumes that a certain reluctance on the part of customers will continue in the third quarter before business development should gradually improve again.
For the year 2020 as a whole, we are thus unchanged in its anticipation of development which is at least stable or a slight increase in Group revenue with an EBITDA margin of more than 26% of Group revenue.
Yours sincerely
Dr. Axel Kaufmann
In the first half of 2020, the corona pandemic determined the developments of the global economy as well as those of the financial and capital markets. While January and the beginning of February 2020 remained unaffected by the pandemic for the most part, its impact on the capital markets was clearly evident by the end of February. This subsequently led to significant declines on stock exchanges worldwide. Massive losses during the first quarter were followed by similarly large gains in the second quarter which, especially on the capital markets, resulted in the situation improving considerably.
Overall, practically all indexes on the German share markets, however, were unable to completely recoup the losses incurred in February and March, and mainly closed the first half of 2020 with negative growth: the DAX experienced a decline of about 7% and the MDAX even dropped about 9%. The TecDAX asserted itself with somewhat greater success, losing about 2% in the first half of the year. Stoxx Europe (Software & Computer Services) closed at just about the same level as at the beginning of the year.
On January 2, 2020, the Nemetschek share started the new year at a price of EUR 58.75. Right at the beginning of the year, the share continued to rise strongly once again until February 19, reaching EUR 67.95 before losing considerably in value with the spread of the pandemic and in the weak market environment. The Nemetschek share reached its all-time low of EUR 35.30 on March 18, 2020. This was followed by the share and the overall market making a significant recovery. The Nemetschek share reached its all-time high for 2020 of EUR 70.90 on May 29, 2020. By the end of the reporting period on June 30, 2020, it had again lost value – as had the overall market – and closed the first half of the year at EUR 61.20. This corresponds to a slight increase of 4% since the beginning of the year. In the subsequent weeks, the Nemetschek share stabilized at this level.
Accordingly, the market capitalization of Nemetschek SE increased slightly to around EUR 7.1 billion as of June 30, 2020.

As of June 30, 2020, the nominal capital of Nemetschek SE amounted to EUR 115,500,000 and was divided into 115,500,000 no-par value bearer shares.
SHAREHOLDER STRUCTURE*

* Direct shareholdings as of June 30, 2020.
For the first time, the Nemetschek Group held its regular annual general meeting completely virtually and postponed it to June 19, 2020. Originally, the plan had been to invite shareholders to physically attend the event in Munich on May 29, 2020. This change was the software company's response to ongoing restrictions applicable to public life as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, and made simultaneous use of the option provided for by legislators for an annual general meeting that is completely virtual.
Even after rescheduling, Nemetschek was able to remain within the term of six months after the end of the financial year, by which deadline European Companies (SEs) are required to hold their annual general meetings.
At the completely virtual annual general meeting, shareholders were informed about the past financial year 2019 and about the prospects for the current financial year 2020. In addition, the resolutions from the agenda were presented. The company's shareholders approved all agenda items with a large majority.
The agenda items also included the distribution of dividends. For the 2019 financial year, the supervisory board and executive board proposed a dividend in the amount of EUR 0.28 per share, a slight increase compared to the previous year (EUR 0.27 per share). The total dividends to be distributed amounted to EUR 32.3 million (previous year: EUR 31.2 million). The company thus continued with its sustainable and success-oriented dividend policy and paid out a dividend for the eleventh time in a row. Even though it was and remains to be expected that the current situation resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic will also affect the business developments of the Nemetschek Group, a favorable earnings level nevertheless continues to be anticipated for 2020. This and the familiarly high financial strength made the payment of dividends possible.
The free float as of June 30, 2020 was 47.8%.

* Presentation of previous year as of December 31, 2019.
The Nemetschek Group has recorded a solid first half of 2020 with continued high profitability. After a positive start to the year, however, the general conditions clouded over as a result of the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic. The company reacted quickly and, in particular, adapted its support and training activities to the changed conditions in order to maintain customer contact, which is important in this situation. For example, virtual support and sales opportunities as well as online tutorials were expanded. In addition, cost management in the Group was adjusted at an early stage with the involvement of the executives.
Consolidated revenue rose by 7.6% in the first six months to EUR 288.2 million (previous year: EUR 267.7 million). The revenue growth was the result of purely organic growth of 4.8% and the revenue contribution of the newly acquired Red Giant LLC, which has been integrated into the Maxon brand in the Media & Entertainment segment since January 2020. Adjusted for currency translation effects at constant exchange rates, revenue growth would have been 6.6% or 3.8% on a purely organic basis.
EBITDA increased by 7.7% to EUR 82.6 million (previous year: EUR 76.6 million). The EBITDA margin thus rose slightly from 28.6% in the previous year to 28.7%. The high EBITDA margin also reflects the disciplined cost management in connection with the effects of Covid-19. Due to the current and expected development of the business performance, there is no indication that assets, particulary goodwill may be impaired.
In the first half of 2020, the Nemetschek Group's revenues from software licenses were –10.8% lower than in the previous year at EUR 100.1 million (previous year: EUR 112.3 million). Adjusted for currency effects, the decline was –12.0%. In terms of licence revenues, the Covid-19 pandemic already led to restrained demand on the part of customers in the first six month. In contrast, recurring revenues increased significantly in the first half of 2020 by 24.2% to EUR 175.0 million (previous year: EUR 140.9 million). Adjusted for currency effects, recurring revenues rose by 23.0%. Software licenses accounted for 34.8% of total revenues (previous year: 42.0%), while the share of recurring revenues increased from 52.6% in the previous year to 60.7%. These more predictable revenues are of great importance for the robustness of the Nemetschek business model, especially in the current uncertain market environment.
A further growth driver is the Group's continuing global orientation. Domestic sales increased by 5.5% to EUR 71.2 million (previous year: EUR 67.5 million). In the foreign markets, the Nemetschek Group achieved revenues of EUR 217.0 million, an increase of 8.4% compared to the previous year. The share of revenues generated abroad rose to 75.3% (previous year: 74.8%).
Overall, the performance of the segments in the first half year was slightly above the levels expected, especially in view of the fact that the corona crisis spread to the US market with a time lag. The corona pandemic has affected all four segments with varying intensity. The Design segment felt the effects of the crisis very early. Revenues in this segment therefore decreased by –1.6% (adjusted for currency effects: –2.1%) to EUR 149.8 million compared to the prior year. EBITDA increased by 4.0% to EUR 46.2 million (previous year: EUR 44.5 million). This corresponds to an operating margin of 30.9% (previous year: 29.2%). In the Build segment, revenues increased significantly year-onyear by 13.5% (after adjustment for currency translation effects: 11.5%) to EUR 96.8 million (previous year: EUR 85.3 million). The EBITDA margin also increased significantly to 38.2% (previous year: 35.5%). The Manage segment also continued to grow, increasing revenues from EUR 17.5 million (adjusted for currency translation effects: 11.6%) year-on-year to EUR 19.6 million. The EBITDA margin was 13.8% and above the previous year, which was burdened by acquisition costs (previous year: 9.0%). The Media & Entertainment segment was significantly strengthened by the acquisition of Red Giant. The integration of the company, which has been consolidated since January 2020, into the Maxon brand is proceeding according to plan. Segment revenues increased by 55.1% to EUR 25.6 million in the first half of 2020, with organic growth of 8.7% (previous year: EUR 16.5 million). At 26.9%, the EBITDA margin fell year-on-year due to acquisition, integration and conversion costs for subscription models (previous year: 37.6%).
Operating expenses rose by 10.0% from EUR 214.1 million to EUR 235.4 million. The cost of materials included in this figure rose to EUR 11.0 million (previous year: EUR 9.3 million). Personnel expenses rose by 10.2% from EUR 117.5 million to EUR 129.6 million. Depreciation and amortization on long lived assets increased by 23.4% from EUR 20.2 million to EUR 25.0 million, mainly due to intangible assets acquired in the course of business combinations. Other operating expenses rose by 4.2% from EUR 67.0 million to EUR 69.8 million.
The net income (group shares) for the half year rose to EUR 42.5 million, exceeding the previous year's figure of EUR 41.4 million by 2.6%. Earnings per share amounted to EUR 0.37. Adjusted for depreciation and amortisation from the purchase price allocation after tax, net income rose by 9.7% to EUR 52.4 million (previous year: EUR 47.8 million), resulting in earnings per share of EUR 0.45.
The Group's tax rate at the end of the second quarter of 2020 was 24.3% (previous year: 25.5%).
The cash flow from operating activities was mainly used for the investments in fixed assets, dividends and repayment of loans. The company acquisitions were financed by liquid funds and borrowings.
The operating cash flow of the first six months in the amount of EUR 78.2 million increased significantly due to the higher operating performance (previous year: EUR 69.3 million).
Cash flow from investing activities was EUR –88.3 million (previous year: EUR –110.3 million) and included EUR 79.1 million for the acquisition of Red Giant in the Media & Entertainment segment. In contrast, EUR 73.4 million was paid out in the previous year for the acquisition of the Axxerion Group and EUR 24.2 million was paid out for the acquisition of Redshift. The cash flow from financing activities of EUR –67.4 million (previous year: EUR 39.6 million) mainly includes dividends paid out in the amount of EUR 32.3 million, repayment of bank loans of EUR 27.3 million and leasing liabilities of EUR 6.4 million. In the previous year, the cash flow from financing activities included the raising of bank loans in the amount of EUR 100.0 million with the Axxerion and Redshift acquisition.
On the quarterly closing date, the Nemetschek Group held cash and cash equivalents of EUR 130.2 million (December 31, 2019: EUR 209.1 million).
The balance sheet total increased from EUR 857.2 million to EUR 891.2 million compared to December 31, 2019. Equity amounted to EUR 386.1 million (December 31, 2019: EUR 348.6 million), resulting in an equity ratio of 43.3% compared to 40.7% as of December 31, 2019. This increase was driven by the total comprehensive income for the period (EUR 34.8 million), dividends paid (EUR 32.3 million) as well as due to the acquisition of Red Giant LLC and the associated financing and the recognition of non-controlling interests in the net amount of EUR 35.2 million.
Nemetschek Group has taken advantage of the current favorable financing level and increased its financial scope by adding lines of credit amounting to a total of EUR 200.0 million.
Other than that there were no significant events after the end of the interim reporting period.
As of June 30, 2020, the Nemetschek Group employed a staff of 3,014 (June 30, 2019: 2,776). The under-proportional increase of 8.6% compared to revenue growth also reflects the disciplined cost management in the first half of 2020 in connection with the effects of Covid-19. Nevertheless, there were hiring activities in some Group companies before the outbreak of Covid-19. In addition, the acquisition of Red Giant LLC on January 2020 contributed to the increase in headcount.
There are no material changes to the disclosures in the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019.
For the main opportunities and risks of the Nemetschek Group's anticipated development, we refer to the opportunities and risks described in the Group management report as of December 31, 2019. No significant changes have occurred in the meantime. With regard to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, we refer to the forecast report in the Group management report as of December 31, 2019, and to the comments in this quarterly report.
As a result of the very solid first half year, growth trends in the relevant markets that remain intact in the long-term, ongoing increases in the proportion of plannable revenues and broad regional and market-related diversification of risk, the executive board confirms the revenue targets for the full year 2020, despite a still uncertain environment, and is optimistic to comfortably reach the targeted profitability. It also assumes that a certain reluctance on the part of customers will continue in the third quarter before business development should gradually improve again.
For the year 2020 as a whole, the executive board is thus unchanged in its anticipation of development which is at least stable or a slight increase in Group revenue with an EBITDA margin of more than 26% of Group revenue.
These forecasts continue to be expressly subject to the reservation that international economic and industry-specific framework conditions do not significantly worsen especially as a result of the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic.
As the result of changes, it is possible that the individual figures in this quarterly report do not exactly add up to the totals given and that the percentage disclosures do not reflect the absolute values from which they are derived.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Nemetschek Group have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as required to be applied in the European Union, and the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) and of the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC). These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of IAS 34.
The interim financial statements as of June 30, 2020 have not been audited and have not undergone an audit. Significant changes to the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and the consolidated cash flow statement are detailed in the report on the earnings, financial and asset situation.
The accounting and valuation policies applied in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are generally based on the same accounting and valuation policies used as a basis for the consolidated financial statements for the 2019 financial year. The presentation of certain prior-year information has been reclassified to conform the current year presentation.
Accounting estimates and assumptions can affect the amounts and reporting of assets and liabilities, the reporting of contingent liabilities as at the balance sheet date, and the amounts of income and expenses reported for the period. Due to the still existing uncertainties of the development of the global pandemic, these accounting estimates and assumptions are subject to increased uncertainty. When updating the estimates and assumptions, available information on the expected economic developments has been included as of the reporting date.
The information was included in the analysis of the collectability of financial assets, especially of trade receivables. Due to the current and expected development of the business performance, there is no indication that assets, particulary goodwill may be impaired.
