Allane Mobility Group: Stable contract and revenue development in 2021

• Group contract portfolio and consolidated revenue almost at previous year’s level
• Business development in line with adjusted expectations
• Successful further digitalisation of the business model and renaming

Pullach, 23 March 2022 – Allane Mobility Group (former Sixt Leasing SE), a leading provider in online direct sales of new vehicles in Germany as well as a specialist in the management and full-service leasing of large fleets, has developed in line with adjusted expectations in the 2021 financial year. The business performance was particularly affected by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the overall economic situation. According to preliminary calculations, the Group contract portfolio and the consolidated revenue almost reached the previous year’s level.

Successful further digitalisation and renaming

In the 2021 financial year, the Allane Mobility Group achieved several milestones in the digitalisation of its business model. This included, in particular, the introduction of a digital ordering process on sixt-neuwagen.de, the launch of the “FleetIntelligence” analysis tool for fleet managers and the digitalisation of the logistics processes at the used car locations in Frankfurt, Berlin and Munich. In addition, the change of name from Sixt Leasing SE to Allane SE was completed on 5 August 2021.

Donglim Shin, CEO of Allane SE : “The Corona pandemic has again slowed down our business development in 2021. Nevertheless, we have managed to keep the contract portfolio and revenue almost stable and made great leaps forward in the digitalisation of our business model. With our innovative strength, we are laying the foundation to return to the growth path.”

Business development

In the Online Retail business field, the contract portfolio decreased by 5.4 per cent to 36,600 contracts in the period from the end of December 2020 to the end of December 2021. In the Fleet Leasing business field, the contract portfolio decreased by 11.9 per cent to 33,300 contracts. The decline in both business fields was mainly due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the Fleet Management business unit, on the other hand, the contract portfolio increased by 10.3 per cent to 59,000 contracts and thus reached a new all-time high. The main reason for this was the acquisition of new customers and the expansion of existing customer relationships. Overall, the Group’s contract portfolio in Germany and abroad (excluding franchise and cooperation partners) was slightly below the previous year’s figure at 128,800 contracts (129,900 contracts).

Consolidated revenue fell slightly by 0.8 per cent to EUR 741.8 million according to preliminary calculations. Consolidated operating revenue , which does not include the proceeds from vehicle sales, decreased by 8.5 per cent to EUR 387.4 million. This is mainly due to the significantly reduced vehicle utilisation as a result of the COVID-19-related contact restrictions and the associated decline in utilisation-related revenues as well as a declining contract portfolio. On the other hand, sales revenues for lease returns and marketed customer vehicles in Fleet Management increased by 9.2 per cent to EUR 354.4 million. This development is mainly due to the high demand for used cars.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) declined by 13.0 per cent to EUR 184.0 million. Consolidated earnings before taxes (EBT) fell by 32.7 per cent to EUR 6.1 million. As a result, the operating return on revenue (EBT/operating revenue) was 1.6 per cent (2020: 2.2 per cent).

Allane Mobility Group will announce the final and audited figures for the 2021 financial year and an outlook for the financial year 2022 with the publication of its Annual Report 2021 on 29 April 2022.
