Selected notes

1. Company and general information

3. Alternative performance measures

In addition to the information provided as part of these financial statements, management uses additional performance indicators to manage the Group. These include the pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income and other alternative performance measures.

Pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income

In the prior-year period, income and expenses of IHSE are not recorded in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income due to the date that control was obtained was only in December 2019. As the informative value of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, particularly its suitability for comparing the periods, is limited, the Executive Board analyses the earnings figures on a pro forma basis. In the following table, the Q1 2019 figures are presented as if IHSE had already been acquired as of 1 January 2019.

In € k Q1 2020 Q1 2019
Revenue 12,563 10,462

Expected credit loss allowance on trade receivables (6) -
Other operating income 196 97

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets (375) (347)

To calculate prior-year period's pro forma income and expenses, management assumed that preliminary fair value adjustments conducted at date of acquisition of IHSE, would also have applied at an acquisition on 1 January 2019, that the financing structure post-acquisition would have existed at beginning of the year and that costs of the acquisition would not have occurred prior to the assumed acquisition, i.e. prior to 1 January 2019. However, no acquisition costs occurred in the period from 1 January 2019 to 31 March 2019.

Other alternative performance measures

The Group provides information on adjusted earnings before interest and tax (adjusted EBIT) and adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA). The percentage that these figures amount to in terms of revenue is determined as the respective margin (adjusted EBITDA margin and adjusted EBIT margin). In addition, information is provided on the adjusted earnings per share. Alongside revenue and gross profit, management uses these performance indicators to manage the Company and regards them as significant for the understanding of the Group's financial performance. The alternative performance indicators are not defined in the IFRS and the definitions of the Group are potentially not comparable with similarly designated performance indicators of other companies.

Management eliminates expenses from share-based payment according to IFRS 2.51 (a) from the performance indicators relevant for management of the Company. The reason for this is that these are not financially incurred by the Company but by its shareholders. The issuance of options and shares does not represent an outflow of resources for the Group. Consequently, management eliminates the relevant expenses from share-based payment for the analysis of the financial performance of the Group.

As non-controlling interests are not shown owing to the application of the anticipated acquisition method, financial liabilities and provisions for the remaining 30% of shares in Palas are recorded in the Group's statement of financial position. The increase of such liabilities and provisions is recorded partially in personnel expenses as share-based compensation and the remainder in the financial result. Therefore, the Group eliminates financial result from NCI put arising from this issue when calculating adjusted earnings figures.

The earnings figures for the analysis of the Group's performance are also adjusted for the costs of completed M&A transactions according to IFRS 3.53. Such costs are initially incurred only for purchases of companies. Owing to the business model of BCM AG, these costs do have a recurring character but respectively amount to zero when assuming an unchanged consolidated group. Further, in the opinion of group management, such expenses were to be recorded as acquisition costs, which conventionally would need to be capitalized for acquisitions and should thus not represent an expense.

Amortization expenses and impairment losses on intangible assets identified as part of purchase price allocations for acquisitions (PPA amortization expenses) are deducted from the basis for figures according to IFRS for the purposes of value-enhancing corporate management. These amortization expenses relate to accounting entries at the capital consolidation level, that is independent of the business figures of the separate group companies. These amortization expenses are not found in any of the individual annual financial statements of the group companies. Expenses are recorded solely at the level of consolidation. The expense has no impact on liquidity, has no relevance for the Group's capacity to distribute dividends and no such replacement investment spending is incurred for this in the future in cash flows. Considerably lower earnings due to PPA amortization according to IFRS result solely from the fact that an M&A transaction has taken place. A considerably poorer presentation of the financial performance arises solely due to capital consolidation. Also, in result it is possible that a subsidiary develops considerably more favourably than budgeted but it is nevertheless still necessary to recognize substantial amortization expenses in the consolidated financial statements due to the purchase price allocation. As income from the reversal of deferred tax liabilities on the PPA amortization is accrued in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, this is consequently also eliminated in the commensurate amount for the determination of the post-tax performance indicators.

At closing of an IPO, which comprises issuance of new shares, a part of the costs incurred must be accounted for as a deduction from equity and thus is not expensed in profit or loss. Conditions for recording in equity are defined in IAS 32.37. In the reporting period, the Group has launched preparations for a stock market listing of its shares (IPO). For such preparatory work, costs incurred, which are expensed in profit or loss. Due to the extraordinary nature of such costs, the Group eliminates expensed cost of equity capital measures from the adjusted earnings figures.

Pursuant to IFRS, full consolidation is undertaken, that is the collective presentation of all income and expenses of all majority interests from the date that control is obtained. As a consequence, for acquisitions completed during the fiscal year, only a part of the business volume is presented in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. In order to provide users of these financial statements with more information content, the performance indicators are presented pro forma as supplement. Under the pro forma approach, expenses and income from subsidiaries acquired in the reporting period are consolidated from the beginning of the reporting period in which the respective acquisition took place. Thus, IHSE was included in the pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income of the prior-year period from 1 January 2019.

As part of financing the acquisition of IHSE, a cash contribution capital increase and a contribution in kind capital increase were conducted in December 2019. As a result of the issuance of shares of BCM AG, own shares from the share loan were retransferred. The effects of these transactions on the number of shares outstanding was taken into account in the prior-year period pro forma perspective.

4. Business segments

The operating segment Environmental Technologies comprises businesses in the field of development, production and distribution of fine dust and nano particle measurement devices, aerosol spectrometers and generators as well as filter test rigs.

The operating segment Security Technologies comprises businesses in the field of development, production and distribution of high-performance devices for the switching and extension of computer signals. Since this segment is IHSE, which was acquired only in December 2019, the figures for the prior-year period amount to zero.

Segment financial information is reported according to management accounting, which essentially concurs to IFRS. Long-term assets are located almost exclusively in Germany.

Altered geographic revenue split

In the reporting period, the Group changed the allocation of revenue by country to regions from a Germany- and Europe-centred view to a more global perspective. If the region definition had not changed, revenue split would have been shown as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents as well as financial liabilities of IHSE, i.e. the Security Technologies business segment, were substantially affected by the acquisition of IHSE by the Group in December 2019. As a result, reporting their values as per 31 March 2019 would not be a meaningful basis for comparison. Therefore, those values as well as totals that would comprise those values are stated as not applicable (N/A) in the table above.
