Group Update Financials Outlook

Q2 2024 – Outlook

  • For Q2 2024, we expect organic revenue and earnings development for the Group 1-2%-points above Q1 level
  • Organic OoH momentum for Q2 broadly in line with Q1 (~15-17%) with a potential smaller acceleration depending on UEFA Euro 2024 revenues
  • Digital & Dialog with similar double-digit momentum in Q2 as in Q1 and DaaS & E-Commerce with accelerating growth rate
  • Full-year guidance remains unchanged for the moment:

Organic revenue growth noticeably higher than 2023 (+7.5%) and substantial operational leverage based on:

  • EBITDA margin (adj.) around prior year level & IFRS effects roughly stable
  • therefore EBIT (adj.) with double the growth rate of EBITDA (adj.)
  • Free cash flow (adj.) significantly above growth rate of EBIT (adj.)
  • Update on full-year guidance with Q2 numbers in early August
  • Capital Markets Day (focus on OoH midterm) planned for Q4
