Aumann AG reached a 24.2% increase in revenue to €55.7 million in the first quarter of 2023. The Emobility segment was the main growth driver with a 46.5% increase in revenue to €39.5 million and a share of more than 70% of total revenue. EBITDA more than tripled year-on-year from €1.1 million to €3.5 million. Aumann´s EBIDTA margin improved significantly by 3.6 percentage points year-on-year and reached 6.2% in the first quarter. Adjusted for special effects relating to personnel expenses from the stock option program, adjusted EBITDA amounted to €3.7 million with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 6.6%.
Against the background of the high order backlog at the end of 2022, Aumann is acting more selectively in terms of sales with a view to sustainably improving profitability beyond fiscal year 2023. Nevertheless, order intake was close to the strong previous year's level of €82.5 million, at €75.2 million. While customers will be awarding pending large orders for electromobility later in the year, the Classic segment is already benefiting in the first quarter from a large order with a double-digit million € volume in the field of renewable energies. As a result, the order backlog increased by 29.3% to the previous year to a new record level of €276.5 million.
The automotive industry is consistently pushing ahead with the development of production capacities for electromobility, which requires highly automated production systems. Based on the successful start to the year, a liquidity position of €97.5 million and an equity ratio of 62.2%, Aumann continues to be excellently positioned for the profitable growth of the company.
On 15 March 2023, Aumann AG resolved to make use of the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 2 June 2021 to acquire treasury shares in accordance with section 71 (1) no. 8 of the AktG. The company intends to buy back own shares with a maximum volume of €7.0 million at a price of €18.00 per share via the stock exchange from 17 March 2023. As of 31 March 2023, a total of 100,605 shares with a total value of €1.5 million had been acquired under the program. The share buyback program is scheduled to end on 31 July 2023 at the latest.
The Executive Board and the Supervisory Board will propose to the Annual General Meeting the payment of a dividend. This will amount to €0,10 per share entitled to dividend.
Aumann Group made a successful start into the new year, benefiting from continued high demand. The consolidated revenue increased by 24.2% to €55.7 million (previous year: €44.9 million). At €57.3 million, total operating performance after capitalised development costs and other operating income was €11.5 million higher than in the same period of the previous year.
The cost of materials and staff costs increased at a lower rate than the revenues. While the cost of materials rose by 20.7% to €35.0 million, staff costs increased by 15.1% to €16.2 million.
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as of March 2023 amounted to €3.5 million (previous year: €1.1 million) After depreciation and amortisation of €1.3 million (previous year: €1.1 million), the Aumann Group's EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) amounted to €2.2 million (previous year: €-0,2 million). The financial result for the first three months was €0.0 million (previous year: €-0,2 million), resulting in EBT (earning before taxes) of €2.2 million (previous year: €-0.2 million). Consolidated net profit amounted to €1.4 million (previous year: €-0.3 million) or €0.09 per share (based on an average of 15,240,914 shares outstanding) in the first three months.
Personnel expenses of €185.0 thousand were adjusted in connection with the stock option program (previous year: € 185.0 thousand). Adjusted EBITDA thus amounted to €3.7 million (previous year: €1.3 million). Futhermore, depreciation of assets capitalised as part of the purchase price allocation of Aumann Limbach-Oberfrohna GmbH was adjusted in the amount of €8.6 thousand. Adjusted EBIT totalled €2.4 million (previous year: €-0.1 million).
Order intake amounted to €75.2 million by March 2023. The order backlog reached €276.5 million in the first three months.
The Group's equity amounted to €190.0 million as of 31 March 2023 (31 December 2022: €190,2 million). In relation to the consolidated assets of €305.7 million, the equity ratio was 62.2%.
Financial liabilities amounted to €8.9 million as of 31 March 2023 and were at the same level as of 31 December 2022. Cash and cash equivalents decreased from €120.6 million (31 December 2022) to €97.5 million in the first quarter 2023. After Working Capital was reduced by 35.2 million in the fourth quarter

of 2022 - in particular due to high advance payments received – the progress in fulfilment of performance in customer orders led to an increase in Working Capital of €25.6 million in the first quarter of 2023.
Net cash, i.e. the balance from the aforementioned liabilities and cash items amounted to €88.6 million compared with €111.7 million on 31 December 2022.
Revenue in the E-mobility segment increased by 46.5% year-on-year to €39.5 million as of 31 March 2022. Segment EBITDA amounted to €2.3 million after three months (previous year: €0.3 million). EBIT totalled €1.5 million (previous year: €-0.4 million). Order intake in E-mobility decreased to €39.3 million (previous year: €66,5 million).
In the first three month of the year, revenue in the Classic segment amounted to €16.2 million (previous year: €13.6 million). Segment EBITDA amounted to €1.9 million as against the prior-year figure of €1.4 million. EBIT totalled €1.5 million (previous year: €0.9 million). Order intake in the Classic segment reached €35.9 million (previous year: €16,1 million).
Based on the excellent order backlog, management expects significant revenue growth to more than €250 million in the 2023 financial year. At the same time, the stronger margins in the order book will increasingly materialise in the result, which will lead to a further improvement in the company's profitability in 2023. Against this background, an EBITDA margin of 6 to 7% is expected.
