Slump in automobile markets worldwide
Sharp drop in deliveries to customers
Sales of electrified vehicles grow against trend
In the first half of 2020, international automobile markets were generally in a very weak state, primarily due to the lockdowns imposed to tackle the corona pandemic, which were kept in place for several weeks. Despite vehicle markets in Europe and the USA staging a mild recovery from their previous lows, they are still significantly down on pre-crisis levels. The only exception is China, where more vehicles have been sold since May than in the previous year.
On a worldwide basis, new registrations recorded from January to June were significantly down year-on-year (30.9 million vehicles; –26%). Key automobile markets developed as follows compared with the previous year:

Interim Group Management Report
Report on Economic Position General Economic Environment
The global spread of coronavirus had a severe impact on deliveries of BMW Group vehicles to customers, both in the second quarter of 2020 and on a six-month basis. In total, 485,4641 units were sold during the period from April to June 2020, significantly lower than one year earlier (2019: 649,856 units 1,2 ; – 25.3%). During the first six months of 2020, 962,5753 BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce brand cars were delivered to customers (2019: 1,250,4702, 3 units; – 23.0%). Sales of electrified vehicles of the BMW Group showed a positive development against the overall trend, with an increase of 3.4% in the first half-year. Plug-in hybrid variants are now available across the BMW brand's model portfolio.
A total of 354,765 new lease and credit financing contracts were concluded with retail customers during the period from April to June 2020 (2019: 501,663 contracts; – 29.3 %). The figure for the sixmonth period fell to 804,452 contracts (2019: 971,287 contracts: – 17.2 %). As at 30 June 2020, the portfolio of credit financing and leasing contracts with retail customers totalled 5,502,786 contracts and was therefore similar to the level recorded at the end of the previous financial year (31 December 2019: 5,486,319 contracts; + 0.3 %).
In the first six months of the year, the BMW Group's net assets, financial position and results of operations were negatively impacted by the spread of the corona pandemic and the accompanying regulations introduced to contain it. While the slump in the Chinese market and the closure of dealerships in other markets from mid-March onwards had a significantly dampening effect on first-quarter results, the escalation of COVID-19 to pandemic proportions and the related containment measures had an impact on all the BMW Group's other key sales markets in the second quarter. Exacerbated by lockdowns, dealership closures and the accompanying production interruptions, the drop-off in customer demand took its toll on Group earnings. Nevertheless, the Chinese market staged a slight recovery in the second quarter, sending a positive signal.
Group revenues totalled € 43,225 million for the first half of the year (2019: € 48,177 million; – 10.3 %), and € 19,973 million for the second quarter (April – June 2019: € 25,715 million; – 22.3 %). The Automotive segment's revenue performance during the first two quarters of the year reflected the lower number of vehicles sold as well as a drop in spare-parts revenues caused by the closure of dealerships and stay-at-home restrictions imposed to combat the corona pandemic. Favourable product mix effects due to the less pronounced decrease in the sale of high-revenue models and better selling prices on the back of the rejuvenated product portfolio partially offset the effect of lower volumes. Increased revenues generated with the Chinese joint venture BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd., Shenyang, also had a positive impact in the second quarter.
Over the six-month period, a portfolio-related increase in leasing revenues was more than cancelled out by the lower level of revenues generated from the sale of returned lease vehicles.
The lower volume of new leasing business in the first half-year, as well as lower expected new leasing business, resulted in a year-on-year decrease in the amount of revenues eliminated on consolidation 4 .
Compared to the corresponding periods in the previous year, Group cost of sales decreased by € 1,176 million (– 3.0 %) in the first half of the year and by € 2,488 million (– 11.8 %) in the second quarter. Reduced manufacturing costs due to lower sales volumes – particularly in the second quarter – were partially offset by increased expenses recognised for risk provisioning, including the reassessment of residual value and credit risks. Furthermore, the elimination of revenues described above had an equal and opposite effect on cost of sales, whereby the lower volume and lower expected volume of new leasing business resulted in a year-on-year decrease in the amount of cost of sales eliminated on consolidation.

Group Overview
Group research and development expenses remained at a high level and totalled € 2,734 million for the sixmonth period (2019: € 2,796 million; –2.2%), reflecting expenditure on continuing product portfolio development as well as on the ongoing electrification of vehicles (such as the BMW iNext and the iX3 1 ). Gross profit for the six-month period and for the second quarter amounted to € 4,825 million and € 1,291 million respectively, in both cases significantly down on figures reported one year earlier (January – June 2019: € 8,601 million; – 43.9%; April – June 2019: € 4,545 million; – 71.6%).

4 Capitalised development costs as a percentage of research and development expenditure.
5 Research and development expenditure comprises the sum of research and non-capitalised development cost and capitalised development cost (not including the associated scheduled amortisation).
Selling and administrative expenses fell moderately by 6.0 % to € 4,159 million for the six-month period (2019: € 4,423 million), mainly attributable to lower personnel expenses (partly due to flexible working time arrangements and scaled down performancerelated remuneration components) as well as to demand-related lower expenses for communication and marketing.
The net amount of other operating income and expenses recorded for the six-month period improved by € 1,431 million, reflecting the fact that a provision of approximately € 1.4 billion had been recognised in the first quarter of 2019 in connection with ongoing antitrust proceedings. Further information is provided in note 6 to the Interim Group Financial Statements. The net amount reported for the period also benefited from reversals of valuation allowances and higher income from currency transactions.
In light of the above developments, Group profit before financial result fell sharply to a positive amount
of € 709 million for the six-month period (2019: positive € 2,790 million; –74.6%), and to a negative amount of € 666 million for the second quarter (2019: positive € 2,201 million).
The financial result in the second quarter improved by € 514 million to a positive € 366 million (2019: negative € 148 million). The second-quarter performance benefited in particular from the increase in at-equity earnings from the Chinese joint venture BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd., Shenyang, to € 367 million (2019: € 191 million) and from the gain recorded by THERE Holding B. V. on the sale of shares in the mapping service provider HERE International B. V. to Mitsubishi Corporation and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, see note 2 to the Interim

Group Financial Statements. Losses recorded by the YOUR NOW companies had an offsetting effect. Positive changes in the market value of marketable securities contributed to an improved other financial result in the second quarter.

Group Overview
Similarly, while the improved result from equityaccounted investments described above had a positive impact on six-month earnings, it was not sufficient to offset the negative effects from interest rate hedges. In addition, the previous year's first-quarter other financial result included a positive revaluation effect arising from the pooling of mobility services with the Daimler Group. The financial result for the first half of the year was a net negative amount of € 211 million (2019: positive € 25 million).
Overall, Group net profit for the six-month period fell to € 498 million (2019: € 2,815 million), due to the effects described above.
The BMW Group issued bonds for a total amount of € 7.6 billion in the first half of the year, including a Euro benchmark bond, a further Panda bond on the Chinese capital market and a US-dollar bond on the US capital market.
In addition, ABS transactions were issued in Germany, the USA, China, Japan, the UK and Canada totalling approximately € 8 billion.
Despite the spread of the corona pandemic, the BMW Group continues to have excellent access to the world's major capital markets. Liquidity-related measures have been put in place to enable the Group to react flexibly to ongoing uncertainties caused by the corona pandemic and to manage operations on a sustainable basis in the event of renewed containment measures. Accordingly, Group liquidity rose to € 21.7 billion (31 December 2019: € 17.4 billion) and remains at a solid level.

Report on Economic Position General Economic
Environment Automotive Segment
Dominated by the corona pandemic, the first half of the current year was marked by restrictions on both public and private life worldwide, which also had a massive impact on the BMW Group's dealership organisation. As a result, despite stable supply chains, production had to be interrupted in most plants, including those of the Group's production network. In China, for example, production at the BMW Brilliance Automotive Ltd. joint venture in Shenyang was suspended from the end of January to mid-February. Not only the BMW Group's European plants, but also its manufacturing facility in Spartanburg, USA, were compelled to follow suit with a time lag on account of the global spread of coronavirus, closing their doors from mid-March to mid-May.
As a result of these developments, the BMW Group delivered significantly fewer vehicles to customers during the second quarter, namely 430,3441 BMW (2019: 560,1891, 2 units; – 23.2 %), 54,413 MINI (2019: 88,3372 units; – 38.4 %) and 707 Rolls-Royce (2019: 1,3302 units; – 46.8 %) brand vehicles.
Combined with the negative impact of coronavirus on the first quarter of 2020, the outcome for the
six month-period was a significant decrease in deliveries of BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce brand vehicles to 962,5753 units (2019: 1,250,4702, 3 units; – 23.0 %). The BMW brand achieved a worldwide sales volume figure of 842,1533 units (2019: 1,075,4862, 3 units; – 21.7 %). At 118,862 units, MINI deliveries were also well down on the previous year (2019: 172,4822 units; – 31.1 %). Similarly, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' sales volume figure of 1,560 units was significantly lower than one year earlier (2019: 2,5022 units; – 37.6 %).
In the first quarter, it was Asia that was hardest hit by the spread of coronavirus. However, signs of a positive trend began to emerge during the second quarter. In the period from April to June, deliveries of the Group's three brands rose by 7.4 % year-on-year to 253,9421 units (2019: 236,4611, 2 units). Despite the favourable tailwind, sales in the Asia region nevertheless fell by 8.2 % to 416,8823 for the six-month period (2019: 453,8762, 3 units). Developments in China, the BMW Group's largest single market worldwide, followed a similar pattern with second-quarter volumes up by 17.0 % to 212,8701 units year-on-year (2019: 181,9271, 2 units). During the first six months of the year, the BMW Group sold 329,4473 BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce brand vehicles in the region (2019: 350,5772, 3 units; – 6.0 %).

The percentage of total deliveries accounted for by electrified vehicles rose by 3.4 % during the first six months of the year. Between January and June, 61,652 all-electric and plug-in hybrid models were delivered to customers (2019: 59,6501 units). This upward trend can also be explained by the new models, as plug-in hybrid versions are now available across the BMW brand's model portfolio. The X22 will be added to the popular range of electrified X models over the course of the year, while the BMW 3 and 5 Series will be supplemented
by additional drivetrain and engine-capacity variants as well as Touring models. The all-electric BMW iX32 will be launched on the Chinese automobile market before the end of the year. The MINI brand's youthful range of electrified vehicles is also having a positive effect, with both the plug-in hybrid MINI Cooper SE Countryman ALL42 and the all-electric MINI Cooper SE2 contributing to the 4.1 % rise in deliveries of these future-oriented models. Driven by the broader model range, continued growth in demand for electrified vehicles is expected in the second half of the year.

In the Automotive segment, gross profit amounted to € 2,073 million for the six-month period (2019: € 6,275 million; – 67.0 %) and € 55 million for the second quarter (2019: € 3,455 million). Earnings were significantly impacted by negative volume effects caused by the corona pandemic and the related containment measures, such as lockdown restrictions and dealership closures in key sales markets. Favourable product mix effects due to the less pronounced decrease in the sale of high-revenue models in the first half of the year partially offset the volume-related drop in revenues. The reduction in manufacturing costs due to lower volumes was cancelled out by higher expenses for residual value risks, increased depreciation and amortisation and – as a consequence of the lower level of inventories – negative reversal effects arising in connection with inventory valuation. Moreover, manufacturing costs continued to be burdened by
fixed-cost components that could only be reduced at a less pronounced rate than actual capacity utilisation, particularly in the second quarter. Research and development expenses remained at a high level as planned.
Selling and administrative expenses went down year-on-year, especially in the second quarter, mainly due to lower personnel expenses as well as reduced expenses for communication and marketing.
The net amount of other operating income and expenses recorded for the six-month period improved by € 1,456 million to a positive € 16 million (2019: negative € 1,440 million), mainly due to the provision referred to above that was recognised in 2019 – within other operating expenses – in connection with ongoing antitrust proceedings; see note 6 to the Interim

Reflecting the various effects described above, segment EBIT for the six-month period deteriorated to a loss of € 1,325 million (2019: profit of € 1,159 million), while second-quarter EBIT came in at a loss of € 1,554 million (2019: profit of € 1,469 million).
At € 232 million, the six-month segment financial result was significantly down on the previous year (2019: € 297 million). In the second quarter, the segment financial result improved by € 367 million to € 381 million
(2019: € 14 million), mainly on the back of a far better result from equity-accounted investments, as described above. Moreover, the financial result benefited from fair value measurement gains recognised on marketable securities in the second quarter.
The segment recorded a loss before tax of € 1,093 million (2019: profit of € 1,456 million) for the six-month period and a loss of € 1,173 million (2019: profit of € 1,483 million) for the second quarter.

*At the beginning of the financial year 2020, the starting point for determining cash flow was changed to profit before tax; the previous year's figures have been adjusted accordingly.
Free cash flow generated by the Automotive segment for the period from January to June 2020 was a negative amount of € 2,513 million. The main factor was the deterioration in pre-tax earnings from operating activities, which were held down by the containment measures undertaken to stem the tide of the corona pandemic as well by the related dealership closures. Decreases in liabilities for bonuses and sales promotions, for buyback obligations arising in connection with car rental business and for service business also had a negative impact. Within cash flows from operating activities, the reduction in inventories had a significant positive offsetting effect on working capital.
Cash flows from investing activities reported in the previous year were impacted in particular by cash outflows relating to the acquisition of the YOUR NOW companies and by investments in the production network.

Financial Services Segment
While revenues generated by the Financial Services segment were moderately down on the previous year due to volume-related factors caused by the slump in demand in the wake of the corona pandemic and the closure of dealerships in key sales markets, pretax profit for the second quarter of 2020 fell sharply compared to one year earlier. As in the first quarter, higher expenditure required to mitigate the credit and residual value risks caused by the corona pandemic placed additional downward pressure on earnings.
The initial and ongoing assessment of customer creditworthiness is one of the key pillars of the BMW Group's credit risk management strategy. A review of the Financial Services segment's credit portfolio conducted during the second quarter highlighted significant changes in the credit risk situation, caused by a further deterioration in economic conditions. Against this backdrop, in specific markets, additional allowances for expected credit losses were again recognised in the second quarter of 2020 in order to take account of local market conditions and reflect the negative impact of the corona pandemic on retail customer and dealership business for accounting purposes. The amounts recognised were based on appropriate and well-founded information and estimates available at the end of the reporting period.
In the areas of dealership and customer financing, the credit risk management measures already implemented during the first quarter were systematically continued, including country-specific measures such as moratoriums or temporary increases in credit lines for dealerships. In some markets, these measures were scaled back at least partially in the second quarter.
Compared to the previous three-month period, the extent of the impact of the corona pandemic on the marketing of returned leasing vehicles deepened in the second quarter of 2020. Further measures were taken in terms of the level of risk provisioning expense recognised for the portfolio subject to residual value risks. Accordingly, valuation allowances were further increased on a market-by-market basis to take account of various risks, including expected losses in the market value of vehicles as well as the impact of restrictions in the remarketing process still remaining in some locations. The economic consequences of the pandemic, particularly for the development of pre-owned vehicle markets across the world within the premium segment, continue to be more uncertain than usual.

Financial Services Segment
The Financial Services segment monitors and provides for core business risks on an ongoing and comprehensive basis. In light of the continued volatility caused by the corona pandemic on the one hand and the lack of any historical comparability on the other, it cannot be ruled out that further unfavourable developments, such as additional increases in credit risk due to a second wave of infection, may exacerbate the Financial Services segment's risk situation in subsequent quarters. Based on current assessments, however, the Financial Services segment has recognised appropriate levels of provisions / allowances to cover residual value and credit risks.
Due to the effects of the corona pandemic, business volumes with retail customers and dealerships in balance sheet terms declined moderately compared to the end of 2019.
In total, 804,452 new credit financing and leasing contracts were signed with retail customers during the first half of the current year. Compared to the same period one year earlier, this represents a significant drop of 17.2% (2019: 971,287 contracts), affecting both new financing business (– 16.3%) and new leasing business (– 19.0 %). Overall, leasing accounted for 33.1% and credit financing for 66.9% of new business in the first half of 2020.
The decline in the number of new contracts for preowned vehicles was less pronounced due to increased customer demand in a number of sales markets. New contracts signed during the period under report included 186,804 credit financing and leasing contracts relating to pre-owned BMW and MINI brand vehicles (2019: 192,954 contracts; – 3.2%).
New business from credit financing and leasing contracts concluded with retail customers during the first half of the year fell sharply by 14.1% to € 25,057 million (2019: € 29,169 million). In the period from January to June, 51.3%1 of new BMW Group vehicles were either leased or financed by the Financial Services segment (2019: 50.6%; + 0.7 percentage points).
At 30 June 2020, a total of 5,502,786 credit financing and leasing contracts were in place with retail customers, similar to the level recorded at the end of 2019 (31 December 2019: 5,486,319 contracts; + 0.3%). The Europe / Middle East / Africa region recorded a slight year-on-year increase (+ 2.2%), while the China (+ 0.1%) and EU Bank2 (– 0.1%) regions remained at a similar level to the previous year. By contrast, the contract portfolios in the Americas and Asia / Pacific regions fell slightly by 1.2% and 1.7% respectively.
In the fleet management business, the BMW Group – operating under the brand name Alphabet – offers leasing and financing arrangements as well as other specific services to commercial customers. A portfolio of 712,427 contracts was in place at 30 June 2020 (31 December 2019: 717,353 contracts; – 0.7 %).
The total volume of dealership financing fell by 18.2% to € 17,367 million over the six-month period (31 December 2019: € 21,227 million).
The pre-tax effect of eliminations for the six-month period was a positive amount of € 1,354 million (2019: positive € 127 million). The main drivers for the yearon-year increase were the volume-related decline in new leasing business, positive reversal effects from the leased product portfolio and the lower expected new leasing business volume. Eliminations also include the impact of adjusting risk provisions for residual values in the Financial Services segment to the lower Group amounts arising on consolidation.
Within the Other Entities segment, other financial result in particular was affected by the negative fair value measurement impact of interest rate hedges entered into to refinance the Financial Services business on the basis of matching maturities.

Automobile markets are expected to contract significantly in 2020 as a result of global lockdowns put in place to contain the spread of the corona pandemic. In light of weaker consumption and higher savings rates, the IMF currently expects global economic output to decline by 4.9%. The scale of the downturn will largely depend on the economic stimulus programmes implemented in various countries.

At the time the Annual Report 2019 was published in March 2020, the BMW Group's assessment was still based on the assumption that the sales situation across all key markets would return to normal after a few weeks. Measures to contain the spread of the corona pandemic, such as lockdowns and restrictions on business, particularly in Europe and America, have since been extended and so far only very gradually eased. To some extent, the easing of lockdown measures has already been reversed. The prolonged restrictions put in place to curb the pandemic are weighing heavily on global growth and continue to cloud the economic outlook for 2020.
In its forecasts for the rest of the year, the BMW Group now assumes that economic conditions will only begin to stabilise over the course of the third quarter. A prolonged, deep recession in key sales markets, a cyclical downturn in the Chinese economy caused by recessions in other economic regions, major supply disruptions in the wake of even greater competition, and the possible effects of local lockdowns or rising infection rates in key sales markets are not included in this outlook.
The prevailing high level of uncertainty makes accurate forecasting difficult and has resulted in a combination of scenarios being incorporated in the forecast. This approach is reflected in the broader range of EBIT now being forecast for the Automotive segment for 2020.
Interim Group Management Report Report on Outlook,
Within a volatile economic environment, dominated by the global spread of coronavirus, the BMW Group expects reported figures to be significantly down for the financial year 2020. Under normal circumstances, business would benefit from the numerous new automobile and motorcycle models as well as the individual mobility-related services on offer. However, this positive momentum is currently being outweighed by the impact of the negative developments currently affecting the global economy described above. Research and development expenses will remain at a high level in view of ongoing future-oriented projects. Driven by the global impact of the corona crisis, the BMW Group's pre-tax earnings for the current financial year are likely to decline sharply year-on-year.
Due to the proliferation of the virus, sales volumes in the Automotive segment are expected to be significantly down on the previous year. In light of the adverse factors described above, the Automotive segment EBIT margin is expected to lie within a range between 0 and 3 % in 2020, as already communicated in the Quarterly Statement to 31 March 2020. The segment RoCE1 is also predicted to be well below the previous year's level. At the same time, fleet carbon dioxide emissions 2 are forecast to drop significantly, through which the emissions targets will be achieved.
The Financial Services segment is expected to be affected by an even steeper decline in new business as well as a volatile risk environment, mainly due to the unfavourable economic outlook. Accordingly, as previously reported, a moderate year-on-year drop in segment RoE3 is forecast.
Motorcycles segment deliveries to customers are expected to decrease significantly over the year as a whole. The EBIT margin is currently forecast to lie within a range between 3 and 5%, with RoCE significantly below the previous year's level.
The targets are to be achieved with a workforce size which – based on the new method of calculation described in the Annual Report 2019 – will be slightly below the level recorded one year earlier. The planned reduction will be achieved through a combination of natural fluctuation and voluntary agreements. Vocational training, however, will be continued at the same high level as in the previous year.
The prevailing extreme level of uncertainty – exacerbated in particular by the further spread of coronavirus and driven by economic and political developments such as the outcome of the negotiations between the EU and the UK on a trade agreement by 31 December 2020 as well as international trade and customs policies – may cause economic developments in many regions to differ markedly from even the most recently expected trends and outcomes. Any such deviations could have a further significant impact on the business performance of the BMW Group.
Furthermore, the actual business performance of the BMW Group may also differ from current expectations as a result of the risks and opportunities described in the Report on Risk and Opportunities (pp. 88) of the Annual Report 2019.
3 RoE in the Financial Services segment is calculated as segment profit before taxes, divided by the average amount of equity capital attributable to the Financial Services segment balance sheet.
1 RoCE in the Automotive and Motorcycles segments is measured on the basis of relevant segment profit before financial result and the average amount of capital employed in the segment concerned. Capital employed corresponds to the sum of all current and non-current operational assets, less liabilities that generally do not incur interest. 2 EU-28.

Interim Group Management Report
Risks and Opportunities
As a globally operating enterprise, the BMW Group is exposed to a broad range of risks and opportunities. The Group's corporate success is based on leveraging perceived opportunities as they present themselves. In order to drive growth, boost profitability, bolster efficiency and operate sustainably going forward, the BMW Group also needs to take calculated risks.
As a result of the corona pandemic, risks associated with macroeconomic and financial conditions have increased significantly – in both the short and the medium term – compared with the assessment presented in the Annual Report 2019. The level of risk due to the negative impact of the pandemic on the BMW Group's supply chains, production and sales volumes is still assessed as high. Economic conditions are currently expected to begin stabilising in the course of the third quarter. Nevertheless, in light of the containment measures required as well as the economic impact, a high level of uncertainty remains. Moreover, the pandemic has affected markets to widely differing degrees. For this reason, demand for automobiles is only likely to recover at a very sluggish rate in many markets. If the corona pandemic takes an even more serious course and the global economy deteriorates significantly, risk exposure would be considerable, particularly on the demand side. With these risks in mind, the BMW Group is continuously monitoring developments on world markets and preparing for all scenarios. Likewise, the impact of the corona pandemic on capital markets, the measurement of receivables and residual values is also assessed as high. The risk exposure in this context includes increases in financing costs, credit defaults and remarketing losses in the Financial Services business.
In parallel, the progress of negotiations on a free trade agreement between the EU and the UK and developments in global trade policy will continue to be closely monitored.
Changes in the risk profile are continuously assessed and where necessary, factored, into the current and long-term forecasts.
Further information on risks and opportunities as well as on the methods employed to manage them is also available in the "Report on risks and opportunities" section of the Annual Report 2019 (pp. 88).

Notes to the Group Financial Statements
Accounting Principles and Policies
The consolidated financial statements of Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft (BMW Group Financial Statements or Group Financial Statements) at 31 December 2019 were drawn up in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as endorsed by the European Union (EU), and the supplementary requirements of § 315 e (1) of the German Commercial Code (HGB). The Interim Group Financial Statements (Interim Report) at 30 June 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 (Interim Financial Reporting), have been drawn up using, in all material respects, the same accounting methods as those utilised in the 2019 Group Financial Statements. The BMW Group applies the option of publishing condensed group financial statements. All Interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee which are mandatory at 30 June 2020 have been applied. The Interim Report also complies with German Accounting Standard No. 16 (GAS 16) – Interim Financial Reporting – issued by the German Accounting Standards Committee e. V. (GASC).
The reporting period for these Interim Group Financial Statements in accordance with IAS 34 is the sixmonth period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020. In addition, the income statement and statement of comprehensive income as well as the related notes disclosures for the period from 1 April to 30 June 2020 are presented for informational purposes, but were not subject of the audit review.
Further information regarding the Group's accounting principles and policies is contained in the BMW Group Financial Statements at 31 December 2019.
The Group currency is the euro. All amounts are disclosed in millions of euros (€ million) unless stated otherwise. Information regarding foreign currency translation is provided in note 3 to the Group Financial BMW Statements at 31 December 2019.
Key figures presented in the report have been rounded in accordance with standard commercial practise. In certain cases, this may mean that values do not add up exactly to the stated total and that percentages cannot be derived from the values shown.
The income statement for the BMW Group and segments is presented using the cost of sales method.
Notes to the Group Financial Statements Accounting
Principles and Policies
In order to provide a better insight into the results of operations, financial position and net assets of the BMW Group, and going beyond the requirements of IFRS 8 (Operating Segments), the Group Financial Statements also include an income statement and a balance sheet for the Automotive, Motorcycles, Financial Services and Other Entities segments. The Group Cash Flow Statement is supplemented by a statement of cash flows for the Automotive and Financial Services segments. Inter-segment transactions relate primarily to internal sales of products, the provision of funds for Group companies and the related interest. These items are eliminated on consolidation. More detailed information regarding the allocation of activities of the BMW Group to segments and a description of the segments is provided in the explanatory notes to segment information in the BMW Group Financial Statements at 31 December 2019.
The Interim Group Financial Statements at 30 June 2020 have been reviewed by the Group auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, Frankfurt am Main, Munich office.
The BMW Group Financial Statements to 30 June 2020 include BMWAG and all material subsidiaries over which BMWAG – either directly or indirectly – exercises control. This also includes 57 structured entities used exclusively in conjunction with the BMW Group's asset-backed financing arrangements or as special purpose funds.
The following changes took place in the Group reporting entity during the first six months of 2020:

In June 2020, a joint decision was taken to temporarily put on hold the cooperation with the Daimler Group for the development of highly automated driving systems, which is accounted for as a joint operation.
In December 2019, it was announced that Mitsubishi Corporation, Tokyo and Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, Tokyo will jointly acquire 30%
of the shares in HERE International B. V., Amsterdam, an associated company of THERE Holding B. V. (THERE), Amsterdam. The acquisition was completed in May 2020 following approval by the antitrust authorities. The sale of the shares gave rise to a positive impact of € 105 million which is reported in the line item "Result on investments". In addition, a share capital reduction was implemented at the level of THERE in June 2020, resulting in € 184 million being returned to the BMW Group.
None of the other changes to the Group reporting entity have a material impact on the results of operations, financial position and net assets of the Group.
Group profit for the first half of the current financial year was negatively impacted by the spread of the corona pandemic and the accompanying measures introduced to contain it.
Whereas the main negative factors in the first quarter were the drop in demand in China and the closure of dealerships in some markets, business in the second quarter was adversely impacted by the global spread of the pandemic, which also affected other key sales markets of the BMW Group. Reduced customer demand due to lockdowns and dealership closures was particularly evident in the development of revenues, which fell primarily due to the lower volume of vehicles and spare parts sold in the first half of the year. The drop in sales volume was also reflected in cost of sales, whereby fixed costs fell at a less pronounced rate than the actual reduction in capacity utilisation. Group earnings were also negatively impacted by higher risk provisioning expenses, related in particular to the reassessment of residual value and credit risks.
Interim Group Financial Statements Notes to the Group
Financial Statements Accounting Principles and Policies
Working in the opposite direction, the lower level of new leasing business in the first half of the year, combined with the expectation of further decreases going forward, gave rise to a positive effect at the level of eliminations on consolidation and thus made a positive contribution to earnings during the period under report. Eliminations also include the impact of adjusting risk provisions for residual values in the Financial Services segment to the lower Group amounts arising on consolidation.
The year-on-year decrease in selling and administrative expenses for the six-month period mainly reflected the reduction in communication and marketing expenses arising as a result of the containment measures implemented to curb the spread of the corona pandemic. Moreover, lower personnel expenses due to the use of flexible working time arrangements and lower performance-related remuneration components had a positive impact.
In light of the developments described above, Group net profit was significantly lower than in the previous year.
The spread of the coronavirus across the globe in the second quarter and the accompanying decline in BMWAG's market capitalisation provided an indication of impairment relating to the carrying amounts of tangible and intangible assets. As a result, impairment tests were performed for the Automotive, Motorcycles and Financial Services cash-generating units. In this context, values in use were determined on the basis of updated long-term forecasts that already reflect adjustments to expectations made in light of coronavirus. A detailed description of impairment test procedures is provided in note 4 to the BMW Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019. The following discount rates were applied to measure the relevant values:
| in % | 30. 6. 2020 | 31.12. 2019 |
|---|---|---|
| Automotive | 9.3 | 10.9 |
| Motorcycles | 9.3 | 10.9 |
| Financial Services | 12.2 | 11.5 |
For the purposes of determining the internal rate of return, the risk-adjusted cost of capital rates is averaged over several years (see note 4 to the BMW Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019).
From the BMW Group's perspective, the spread of coronavirus also provided an indication of impairment relating to investments accounted for using the equity method. The exception to this general consideration was the BMW Brilliance Automotive joint venture in China, given the rapid economic recovery registered in that region. The impairment tests were performed on the basis of forecasts approved by management. Where these forecasts still reflected business expectations prior to the outbreak of coronavirus, the corresponding cash flows were reduced by knockdown factors. For the purposes of determining these knockdown factors, a range of possible macroeconomic scenarios were drawn up, allocated probabilities of occurrence and, in a further step, translated into expected effects on cash flows. The at-equity loss reported for YOUR NOW includes an impairment loss of € 40 million (recorded at the level of YOUR NOW Holding GmbH).
For the purposes of accounting for currency and commodity hedges, coronavirus-related effects on sales and production were taken into account as unscheduled exposure updates. If the hedged item was no longer expected to occur, the hedge relationships were de-designated. The corresponding amounts were then reclassified immediately from other comprehensive income to profit and loss (other operating income and expenses).
The methodology used to measure and account for residual value risks was not adjusted in light of the corona pandemic. The general procedures applied are described in note 4 to the BMW Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019.
The regular measurement of residual values did, however, give rise to a higher level of risk provisioning expense. For the portfolio subject to residual value risks, additional write-downs were recognised on a market-by-market basis to take account of expected market value losses and, for some areas, remaining restrictions that could affect the remarketing process. The measurement models applied took a variety of factors into account, including changes in macroeconomic forecasts, the potential impact of a wave of insolvencies and the pull-forward effects of government incentive programmes.
Allowances for expected credit losses were increased in the second quarter to take account of the negative impact of the corona pandemic on retail and dealership business, to the extent not covered by the BMW Group's standard loss provisioning models. In the case of retail customer business, portfolios were measured taking into account market-specific qualitative factors with the aim of identifying portfolio segments particularly affected by the corona pandemic (such as the tourism sector). This assessment was based on local expertise and took into account various scenarios, including the number of payment deferral applications, government measures and additional qualitative portfolio data. For the identified portfolio segments affected, amounts were reclassified from stage 1 (impairment allowance based on twelvemonth expected credit losses) to stage 2 (impairment
allowance based on lifetime expected credit losses), resulting in the recognition of additional risk allowances. Credit risk parameters were otherwise left unchanged.
In the case of dealership business, the creditworthiness expectations for individual dealerships were assessed on the basis of market-specific scenarios, including downgrades based on adjusted expectations of future business performance. In this context, increased default probabilities were assigned to dealerships that could be exposed to deteriorating business conditions as a result of the corona pandemic. However, this reassessment did not result in amounts being reclassified from stage 1 to stage 2 or stage 3. Instead, additional impairment allowances were recognised to take account of the higher anticipated risk of default.
Impairment allowances developed as follows:
| Stage 1 Stage 2 |
Stage 3 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| in € million | General | Simplified | Total | ||
| Impairment allowances at 31 December 2019 | 361 | 209 | 12 | 512 | 1,099 |
| Impairment allowances at 30 June 2020 | 473 | 438 | 27 | 570 | 1,508 |
The effects of a higher risk on receivables within stage 2 were calculated using a scenario model with a view to recognising additional credit risk allowances for trade receivables. The standard model used by the BMW Group to determine expected credit losses is currently unable to appropriately take account of the impact of the corona pandemic. The increasing overdue status of these receivables is seen as a risk. A simulated reclassification of receivables to a higher
overdue band was run, taking account of a range of expected values, and an additional allowance for expected credit losses was calculated and recorded on this basis. Further information on the computation of impairment allowances in accordance with IFRS 9 is provided in note 4 to the BMW Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019.
Impairment allowances developed as follows:
| in € million | Stage 2 | Stage 3 | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Impairment allowances at 31 December 2019 | 26 | 46 | 72 |
| Impairment allowances at 30 June 2020 | 33 | 28 | 61 |
Overall, the additional risk provisioning expense described above was offset by a volume-related decrease in impairment allowances. The lower level of impairment allowances compared to 31 December 2019 was therefore attributable to the lower level of receivables overall.

2 Figures reported for the previous year have been restated. In the first half of 2019, revenues from sales of products previously leased to customers incorrectly included income from lease instalments amounting to €188 million (second quarter 2019: €94 million). In addition, a number of accounts relating to other income on the one hand
and interest income on loan financing and finance lease on the other have been reclassified.
Revenues recognised from contracts with customers in accordance with IFRS 15 totalled € 35,489 million (2019: € 40,976 million).
An analysis of revenues by segment is shown in the segment information in note 22. Revenues from the sale of products and related goods are generated primarily in the Automotive segment and, to a lesser extent, in the Motorcycles segment. Revenues from lease instalments, from sales of products previously leased to customers and interest income on loan financing and finance leases are allocated to the Financial Services segment. Other income relates mainly to the Automotive segment and the Financial Services segment.
Interest income on loan financing and finance leases includes interest calculated on the basis of the effective interest method totalling € 1,793 million (2019: € 1,829 million). This interest income is not reported separately in the income statement as it is not signifsee icant compared to total Group revenues.

These line items principally include exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on the disposal of assets, impairment allowances, as well as income / expense from the reversal of and allocation to provisions, including provisions for ongoing legal disputes, legal disputes that have been concluded and other litigation risks.
In the previous year, an expense of approximately € 1.4 billion was also recognised in connection with the ongoing anti-trust proceedings instigated by the EU Commission (see also note 10 to the BMW Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019). In December 2019, the BMW Group submitted a detailed response to the EU Commission regarding the latter's Statement of Objections. A decision by the EU Commission is pending. The financial impact cannot be definitively assessed at this point in time.

Notes to the Balance Sheet
Financial Statements
The number of shares of common stock issued by BMWAG at 30 June 2020 was 601,995,196 shares, each with a par value of € 1, unchanged from 31 December 2019. The number of shares of preferred stock at that date was 56,867,304 shares, each with a par value of € 1, unchanged from 31 December 2019. Unlike the common stock, no voting rights are attached to the preferred stock. Subscribed capital therefore stood at € 659 million, unchanged from 31 December 2019. All of the Company's stock is issued to bearer. Preferred stock bears an additional dividend of € 0.02 per share.
The shareholders passed a resolution at the 2019 Annual General Meeting authorising the Board of Management, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to increase the Company's share capital by up to € 5 million prior to 15 May 2024 by the issuance of new shares of non-voting preferred stock, carrying the same rights as existing non-voting preferred stock, in return for cash contributions. So far, 740,400 shares of preferred stock have been issued to employees on the basis of this authorisation. The number of authorised shares and amount of authorised capital at the level of BMWAG therefore remain at 4.3 million shares and € 4.3 million respectively. The BMW Group did not hold any treasury shares at 30 June 2020.
During the second quarter of 2020, BMWAG paid the dividend for the financial year 2019 amounting to € 1,505 million for common stock and € 141 million for preferred stock.
Current income taxes amounting to € 896 million (31 December 2019: € 963 million) include liabilities of € 56 million (31 December 2019: € 89 million), which are expected to be settled after more than twelve months. Liabilities may be settled earlier than this depending on the timing of the underlying proceedings.
Current income tax liabilities comprise € 134 million (31 December 2019: € 300 million) for taxes payable and € 762 million (31 December 2019: € 663 million) for tax provisions.

The BMW Group determines its best estimate of contingent liabilities based on the information available at the date the financial statements are prepared. The assessment may change over time and is adjusted regularly on the basis of new information and circumstances. The risks are partially covered by insurance policies.
The European Commission is currently conducting an investigation in connection with antitrust allegations against five German car manufacturers. The BMW Group has provided for the potential outcome of the investigation in the form of a provision measured on the basis of the Statement of Objections, at the best possible estimate (see also note 10 to the Group Financial Statements for the financial year 2019). In relation to these allegations, numerous class action lawsuits have been brought in the USA and Canada as well as several private lawsuits in South Korea. The class action lawsuits in the USA were again dismissed in March 2020 after the preliminary dismissal of the lawsuit in June 2019 for failure to state a claim. The applicants resubmitted their claims in June 2020 in an amended form. The defendants are currently preparing their motions to have the action dismissed. Class action lawsuits in Canada and private lawsuits in South Korea are still at an early stage. Further civil lawsuits based on the allegations are possible going forward. In addition, the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) opened antitrust proceedings against BMWAG in March 2019, followed by the Korea Fair Trade Commission in May 2020 and the Turkish Competition Authority in July 2020. The proceedings are still at an early stage. Possible risks for the BMW Group cannot be currently foreseen, either in terms of their outcome or the amounts involved. Further disclosures pursuant to IAS 37.86 cannot be provided at present.
Regulatory authorities have ordered the BMW Group to recall various vehicle models in conjunction with airbags supplied by the Takata group of companies. Provision for the risk involved has been recognised within warranty provisions. In addition to the risks already covered by warranty provisions, it cannot be ruled out that further vehicles manufactured by the BMW Group will be affected by future recall actions. Further disclosures pursuant to IAS 37.86 cannot be provided at present.
During the first half of the year, the BMW Group initiated voluntary recalls for specific vehicle models in conjunction with the exhaust gas recirculation module (EGR), for which provision had previously been recognised as part of the warranty provision. In addition to the risks already covered by provisions, it cannot be ruled out that further vehicles manufactured by the BMW Group will be affected. Further disclosures pursuant to IAS 37.86 cannot be provided at present.

There have not been any reclassifications within the level hierarchy during the financial year 2020 to date. In the previous financial year, marketable securities amounting to € 187 million were transferred as at 30 June 2019 from Level 1 to Level 2 in view of the
fact that their fair value was determined on the basis of observable market data. As a general rule, any transfers between fair-value hierarchy levels are made at the end of the relevant reporting period.
Financial instruments measured at fair value using input factors not based on observable market prices Interim Group Statements
are allocated to Level 3. Fair values are determined in accordance with the following table:
| in € million | 30. 6. 2020 Fair value |
31.12. 2019 Fair value |

Financial instruments allocated to Level 3 relate mainly to investments in a private-equity fund. For valuation purposes, the investment advisor provides the external fund manager with relevant, investment-specific information on an ongoing basis (at least quarterly). The latter subsequently assesses the underlying individual companies in accordance with the guidelines for international private equity and venture capital valuations (IPEV).
As part of the valuation analysis process, the external fund manager reviews the investment-specific milestones, including an analysis of financial, technical and liquidity-specific performance indicators. Based on this analysis, it is considered whether the price of the most recent financing round can be accepted as an appropriate market valuation for the investments, which are often in an early / growth phase. The key performance indicators used for milestone analysis depend on the business model underlying the investment. Typical technical performance indicators include licensing and patent awards, the progress of technological development (i. e. proof of concept and prototypes), market entries, customer and user growth rates and appointments to key management positions. The main financial performance indicators used are revenues, EBITDA, growth rates and specific contribution margins. Liquidity-specific performance indicators include cash on hand, cash burn rates and prospects for future financing rounds.
A change of + / – 10 % in the relevant input parameter (e. g. the price of the most recent financing round) would normally also lead to a similar change of + / – 10 % in the valuation of the investments made by the private equity fund. Similarly, a significant reduction in growth rates or financial ratio margins could result in impairment and therefore a lower valuation of an investment.
For selected derivatives, a complete set of data relevant for valuation purposes is not available due to their limited market maturity. In order to model forward curves, data are collated and updated on the basis of regular bank and trader inquiries. The valuation methodology applied is in line with the general valuation principles for derivatives used within the treasury management system of the BMW Group.

The following table shows the fair values and carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at amortised cost and whose carrying amounts differ from their fair value. Fair values are determined using the discounted cash flow method and taking into account the risk of default. For this
reason, the fair values can be allocated to Level 2 in the level hierarchy pursuant to IFRS 13.
In the case of other financial instruments measured at amortised cost not included here, the carrying amount represents an appropriate approximation of fair value. For this reason, they are not presented separately.

Financial Statements Segment Information
For information on the basis used for identifying and managing reportable segments, please refer to the Group Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2019. Due to the management system, reported segment results and asset values are based on different performance measures. Details are provided in note 45 of the Group Financial Statements of BMWAG for the year ended 31 December 2019.
Segment information is prepared as a general rule in conformity with the accounting policies adopted for preparing and presenting the Interim Group Financial Statements. Exceptions to this general principle include the treatment of inter-segment guarantees, the earnings impact of which is allocated to the Automotive and Financial Services segments on the basis used internally to manage the business. In addition, intragroup repurchase agreements between the Automotive and Financial Services segments pursuant to IFRS 15, impairment allowances on intragroup receivables and changes in the value of consolidated other investments pursuant to IFRS 9 are also excluded. Intragroup leasing arrangements are not reflected in the internal management and reporting system on a IFRS 16 basis and therefore, in accordance with IFRS 8, do not give rise to any changes in the presentation of segment information.
Segment information by operating segment for the first six months is as follows:

Review Report
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements – comprising the income statement, condensed statement of comprehensive income, balance sheet, condensed cash flow statement, statement of changes in equity and selected explanatory notes – and the interim group management report of Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft, München, for the period from 1 January 2020 to 30 June 2020, which are part of the half-year financial report pursuant to § (Article) 115 WpHG ("Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": German Securities Trading Act). The preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and of the interim group management report in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports is the responsibility of the parent Company's Board of Management. Our responsibility is to issue a review report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (Institute of Public Auditors in Germany) (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with moderate assurance, that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU nor that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the German Securities Trading Act applicable to interim group management reports.
