Available financing capacity driven by significant deleveraging allows for future growth through new acquisitions

Very conservative leverage ratio of ~0.7x adj. EBITDA (LTM) (target value of ~2.5x)

High balance sheet quality underlining resilience of our business

During the year, our cash flow is materially impacted by swings in the refinancing backlog of Bikeleasing
The refinancing backlog is mainly driven by the
Therefore, backlog is usually high in summer and comes down substantially in winter (seasonal business)
This summer of 2023 saw additional processing bottlenecks at financing partners – therefore, backlog was extraordinarily high.

As bottlenecks resolve and volumes come down in fall/ winter, cash flow is to turn strong
