(1) Net debt and adj. EBITDA of last 12 month adjusted for IFRS 16

(2) Part of Cash Flow from financing activities

(3) Before M&A and incl. IFRS 16 lease liability repayments

Comment

  • Q3 with sequentially improved cash flow dynamics
  • 9M earnings improvement offset by higher interest payments and higher IFRS 16 lease liability repayments compared to prior year
  • Overall lower level of investments compared to prior year due to purchase of corporate headquarters in Q3 2022 and more selective digitization of advertising units, but increasing investments in expansion at Asam and Statista
  • IFRS 16 repayments still include phasing effects
  • Bank leverage ratio(1) now as expected at 2.5x; reduction of net debt expected for Q4

Comment

  • Following a restrained development in H1, Digital shows a double-digit revenue increase in Q3, especially driven by extremely high programmatic sales as well as low prior year comps in publishing, leading to a positive YTD development; overall reflecting the stabilization of the online advertising market
  • Dialog (Call Center and D2D) sales growth especially in Q3 supported by acquisition of call center locations; underlying trends softening in Q3 due to more challenging staffing situation
  • Overall positive development leads to an earnings increase in Q3 against moderate prior year base

(1) YTD data of 2022 for Digital include revenue and EBITDA (adj.) from our Turkish business activities, which were sold in 06/2022
