The earnings performance in the first quarter of 2025 reflects the continued implementation of measures to safeguard earnings. Earnings before interest and income taxes (EBIT) amounted to €104.5 million in the reporting period (previous year: €101.5 million). At 8.0 per cent, EBIT return on sales (EBIT ROS) was on a par with the previous year's figure.
The financial result in the reporting period came to €−7.4 million (previous year: €−6.0 million) and was mainly negatively impacted by the results of the measurement of the securities and derivatives held in the special fund. Earnings before taxes (EBT) reached €97.1 million in the first quarter of 2025 (previous year: €95.6 million). EBT return on sales (EBT ROS) came to 7.4 per cent (previous year: 7.5 per cent). Profit or loss amounted to €68.9 million (previous year: €67.9 million). Correspondingly, earnings per preferred share were €0.69 (previous year: €0.68).
As of 31 March 2025, net credit of €21 million was on a par with the end of 2024 (net credit of €22 million). Free cash flow in the first quarter of 2025 amounted to €16 million (previous year: €159 million). Compared with the previous year, the figure was burdened by the working capital development.
As of 31 March 2025, the Jungheinrich Group's workforce, measured in full-time equivalents, stood at 21,024 employees (31 March 2024: 21,062). In addition, Jungheinrich employed 530 temporary workers throughout the Group as at the reporting date (31 March 2024: 384).

The explanations above are partially forward-looking statements that are based on the company management's current expectations, assumptions and assessments for future developments. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainty that are largely beyond the company's control. This includes changes in the overall economic situation – such as impacts from geopolitical conflicts, natural catastrophes, pandemics and similar force majeure events –, debt issues, within the material handling sector, in materials supply, the availability and price development of energy and raw materials, demand in important markets, developments in competition and regulatory frameworks and regulations, exchange and interest rates and the outcome of pending or future legal proceedings. Should these or other uncertainties or unknown factors apply or the assumptions on which these statements are based prove false, actual results may deviate significantly from the results stated or implied. No responsibility is therefore taken for forward-looking statements. Without prejudice to existing capital market obligations, there is no intention to accept any obligation to update forwardlooking statements.
