FUNDAMENTALS OF THE GROUP
The CANCOM Group (hereinafter referred to as "CANCOM" or "CANCOM Group") is one of the leading providers of IT services and IT infrastructure in Germany. In addition to its activities in its home market of Germany, the Group has subsidiaries or branches in Austria, Switzerland, Belgium and Slovakia.
Structure of the CANCOM Group
The parent company of the CANCOM Group is CANCOM SE, based in Munich, Germany. It performs central financing and management functions for the Group companies, i.e. the investments it holds. In addition to the central management and financing activities of the parent company, the operating units are supported in their day-to-day business operations by likewise centralised departments for purchasing, internal IT, warehousing/ logistics, finance, vehicle and travel management, repair/service and human resources ("Central Services") as well as marketing/ communications and product management. In addition, an internal specialised sales department ("Competence Centre") is available to the operational units across the organisation.
In addition to these centralised functions, CANCOM's operating units are primarily decentralised and operate in units that are primarily structured by region. The organisation comprises the regional units South, Southwest, Central, East, North and West as well as locations in Belgium and Slovakia.
In addition, there are the nationally operating business units Managed Services, Public, eCom and Remarketing.
In its financial reporting, the CANCOM Group reports on the development of its operating business through two segments in addition to the Group as a whole: Cloud Solutions (IT as a Service) and IT Solutions (IT as a Concept).
Cloud Solutions
The Cloud Solutions (IT as a Service) business segment includes the (remote and/or shared) managed services business as well as product and service businesses (hardware, software and services) that can be directly assigned to managed services customers. In
addition, there are consumption-based purchase models (XaaS), the AHP Enterprise Cloud as well as cloud licences and rental models. Characteristic of such contracts are, among other things, recurring revenues for service-level-based services and/or services with defined response times. As part of its service offering, the CANCOM Group is able to take over the complete or partial operation of IT for customers with such scalable as-a-service services - in particular shared managed services.
In the context of providing as-a-service services, "cloud" refers to a cloud delivery architecture with location- and device-independent and usually broadband network-based access - especially data and application access - to central IT resources. In this as-a-service segment, CANCOM offers customers the necessary guidance and support for the transformation of their corporate IT into a cloud delivery architecture and for its operation.
For further details on the Cloud Solutions segment, please refer to section D.1.1. in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the CANCOM Group's Half-Year Report 2022.
IT Solutions
The business segment IT Solutions (IT as a Concept) includes the business around the comprehensive support of IT infrastructure and applications. It includes IT strategy consulting, project planning and implementation, system integration, IT procurement via eProcurement services or within the scope of projects, as well as professional IT services and support.
For further details on the IT Solutions segment, please refer to section D.1.1. in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the CANCOM Group's Half-Year Report 2022.
Other companies
In addition to the operating segments, the CANCOM Group's segment reporting also includes the Other Companies segment. This segment covers the staff and management functions for central Group management, including the parent company CANCOM SE. Intra-group investments and expenses for company acquisitions or disposals are also included in this segment.
Changes in the reporting period
On 14 July 2022 CANCOM announced the conclusion of an agreement to take over the shares of all subsidiaries of the S&L Group based in Mühlheim-Kärlich. With its system house and IT services business, the S&L Group generated revenue of around € 15 million in the financial year 2021 and currently has around 100 employees. The date of initial consolidation was 1 August 2022.
In the third quarter of the financial year, the subsidiary HPM Incorporated, in which the operating business of the CANCOM Group in the United States of America was combined, was sold. HPM Incorporated was deconsolidated on 1 September 2022.
Business model and sales markets
CANCOM's product and service portfolio is geared towards advising and supporting corporate customers and public sector clients in adapting IT infrastructures and processes to the requirements of digitalisation. CANCOM acts as a provider of complete solutions and sees itself as a "Hybrid IT Service Provider" for the customer.
The service spectrum ranges from strategic consulting for digital (business) processes to the partial or complete operation of IT systems (primarily by means of managed services and standardised as-a-service offers), to system design and integration, IT support, delivery and turnkey implementation of hardware and software, e-procurement, logistics services and the remarketing of used IT.
This broad-based product and service offering enables the CANCOM Group to generate revenue both on the basis of the company's own skills and services (service business) and from remuneration and commissions for the sale of third-party IT products (sale of goods). Within this business model, management is pursuing a medium-term course of strategic transformation of the CANCOM Group into a Hybrid IT Service Provider, in which an increasing proportion of business activity is to be the provision of IT services, specifically shared managed services.
In geographical terms, the CANCOM Group does business primarily in Germany, but also in Austria, Belgium and Switzerland. A key external factor influencing CANCOM's business development is therefore the development of the IT market in its largest sales markets, Germany and Austria. For these markets as a whole – and therefore also for CANCOM – the general trend towards digitalisation is a key driver. The importance of IT processes in business, administration, the
education sector and healthcare is increasing. New application possibilities for IT-based solutions and investments to improve existing infrastructures are contributing to market development.
Important external factors that CANCOM cannot influence and that may have a positive or negative impact on business development are, in particular, data protection regulations, the general threat situation in the area of cyber security, and also the quality certifications and environmental and social standards required by customers. As a provider of IT services and products, the CANCOM Group's business model is not subject to any special industry-specific legal provisions, licensing requirements or official supervision, i.e. external regulatory or politically influenced factors that go beyond the legal framework generally applicable to all companies. In addition, the availability of IT hardware and software on the world market is an external factor that cannot be influenced.
The CANCOM Group's customer base primarily comprises commercial end users, ranging from small and medium-sized enterprises to large companies and corporations, as well as public institutions.
ECONOMIC REPORT
Development of the overall economy and the IT market
With a revenue share of over 90 percent, Germany is the most important sales market for the CANCOM Group. The most important foreign market is Austria. In addition to the general economic development in these country markets, the overall market for information and communication technology (ICT) especially in Germany - also forms an essential framework and basis of comparison for assessing CANCOM's economic development.
Germany
The Federal Statistical Office estimates that Germany's gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 0.3 percent in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the previous quarter. This means that GDP grew for the third quarter in a row in 2022, following growth of 0.8 percent and 0.1 percent in the first and second quarters of the year, respectively. As in the previous quarters, the development of GDP reflects the difficult global economic environment with the ongoing Corona pandemic, the still incomplete normalisation of supply chains, inflation and the war in Ukraine. Shortly after the end of the reporting period, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) raised its forecast for economic development in Germany by 0.3 percentage points in October 2022 on the basis of developments in the first nine months of the year. The IMF thus expects 1.5 percent GDP growth for Germany in 2022.
Austria
For Austria, CANCOM's most important foreign market, GDP in the third quarter of 2022 was 0.1 percent lower than in the previous quarter, according to the European statistics authority Eurostat. In the first and second quarters, recorded growth of 1.3 percent and 1.9 percent respectively.
| Gross domestic product (GDP) 2022* (Change compared to previous quarter in %) |

| Q1 2022 | Q2 2022 | Q3 2022 | |
| Germany | + 0.8 | + 0.1 | + 0.3 |
| Austria | +1.3 | + 1.9 | - 0.1 |

ICT market
The expectations of the industry association Bitkom for the development of the ICT market in Germany, the most important sales market for the CANCOM Group, had improved slightly over the course of the financial year. For the entire information and communication technology market segment, the growth forecast was raised by 0.7 percentage points to 4.7 percent compared to the forecast at the beginning of the year . This means that the market volume of the ICT market is expected to rise to € 180.7 billion in 2022. In the largest ICT submarket of information technology, which is particularly important for CANCOM, Bitkom now expects growth of 6.7 percent to € 113.0 billion in 2022.


*) Source: Bitkom/IDC, July 2022.
The survey from July of the year is only of limited value due to the time lag between the publication of this quarterly statement and the developments since the summer. According to the industry association Bitkom, business expectations in the ITC sector have recently fallen due to the current uncertainty about future economic development.
Business performance in the first nine months of 2022
In the reporting period from 1 January to 30 September 2022, the CANCOM Group generated revenue of € 925.1 million (previous year (adjusted): € 932.8 million). The main reasons for this development were the supply bottlenecks for IT components and the special situation of delayed call-offs from existing framework agreements with public-sector clients in the first half of 2022. By contrast, business with corporate customers developed well. The availability of IT components improved in the course of the second and third quarters. Also at the end of the second quarter, call-offs from public sector customers increased and have since supported the revenue development. The generally gloomy economic outlook, on the other hand, has so far had no direct negative impact and order intake was at a high level overall in the first nine months of 2022. The CANCOM Group achieved EBITDA of € 80.0 million in the first nine months of 2022 (previous year (adjusted): € 85.5 million).
Looking at the CANCOM Group's business segments, the very significant growth of the Cloud Solutions segment supported the business development of the CANCOM Group, while the contribution of the IT Solutions segment was lower than in the previous year.
Order situation - Annual Recurring Revenue
Within the Group's Cloud Solutions segment, CANCOM represents the business with the provision of managed services, consumption-based sourcing models (XaaS), the AHP Enterprise Cloud as well as cloud licences and rental models. Such contracts result in recurring revenue over a fixed multi-year contract term. Plannable recurring revenue enables a projection of expected future revenue over the next twelve months, starting from the last month of the respective reporting period. This Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)1 totalled € 211.2 million at the end of the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 23.9 percent year-on-year (30 September 2021: € 170.4 million). Organic growth2 of the ARR in the reporting period was 21.9 percent.
1 ARR = Monthly Recurring Revenue from the provision of Managed Services, from consumption-based subscription models (XaaS), the AHP Enterprise Cloud and from cloud licences and rental models x 12 months
Explanation of the Alternative Performance Measures (APM) used in accordance with the APM guidelines of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA):
2 Organic share of financial ratios = respective financial ratio (GAAP or non-GAAP) - contributions from companies that have been part of the scope of consolidation for less than 12 months
In the IT Solutions segment, information on the order situation as of the reporting date is not meaningful. This is due to the way in which contracts are often structured. They often cover longer periods, but their volume can change within these periods (framework agreements). However, there can also be very short periods between the order and the realisation of sales. Reporting on the volume of orders is therefore not meaningful and for this reason is not included in the CANCOM Group's financial reports.
Employees
As at 30 September 2022, the CANCOM Group had 3,826 employees (30 September 2021 (adjusted): 3.527). This represents an increase of 8.5 percent compared to the previous year's reporting date.
The staff members were active in the following areas:
CANCOM Group: Employees

Earnings situation
Notes:
As a result of the sale of the business activities in the United Kingdom and Ireland, the business results of the associated Group companies are summarised in full in the CANCOM Group's income statement under the item "Result from discontinued operations". The key financial figures of the income statement presented below are therefore shown for the prior-year period without the contributions of the business activities in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Detailed explanations can be found in section A.2.2.3 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the CANCOM Group Annual Report 2021.
Furthermore, the business activities in the United States of America (CANCOM USA Group) were sold at the beginning of september 2022 and also correspond to the item "Result from discontinued operations". The key financial figures of the income statement presented below are therefore shown for the prior-year period and the current reporting period without the contributions of the business activities in the United States of America. Explanations can be found in section A.2.2.3 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements of the CANCOM Group's halfyear report 2022..
CANCOM is using the alternative performance measure "business volume" for the first time in this interim statement. The business volume represents the revenue that would have arisen in relation to maintenance/warranty contracts and software licence agreements if the headmaster had been assumed to be acting (see section A.3.2.2 of the 2021 consolidated financial statements). An agent revenue reduction to be made in accordance with IFRS 15 is consequently reversed for the determination of the business volume.

Financial and asset position
Principles and objectives of financial management
The core objective of CANCOM's financial management is to ensure liquidity at all times in order to guarantee daily business operations. In addition, the aim is to optimise profitability and, associated with this, to achieve the highest possible credit rating in order to secure favourable refinancing. The financing structure is primarily geared towards long-term stability and maintaining financial room for manoeuvre to take advantage of business and investment opportunities.
Capital structure of the Group
The total assets of the CANCOM Group as at the reporting date of 30 September 2022 amounted to € 1,247.5 million (31 December 2021: € 1,406.6 million). On the liabilities side, € 691.1 million of this was attributable to equity and € 556.4 million to debt. The CANCOM Group's equity ratio at the end of September was 55.4 percent, which is below the level at the end of the 2021 financial year (31 December 2021: 57.9 percent). Accordingly, the debt ratio rose to 44.6 percent (31 December 2021: 42.1 percent). The shift in the balance sheet structure resulted primarily from the share buyback carried out. Both non-current and current financial liabilities to banks have a very low volume of € 2.5 million compared to total liabilities (31 December 2021: € 2.0 million). The amount of cash and cash equivalents as at the reporting date of 30 September 2022 covers this amount of interest-bearing financial liabilities. Thus, there is no net financial debt of the group or this key figure is negative ("net cash" situation).
Debt and equity
Current liabilities, i.e. liabilities with a remaining term of less than one year, totalled € 430.1 million as at the balance sheet date of 30 September 2022 (31 December 2021: € 468.1 million). The change compared to December 2021 is due in particular to the decrease in trade payables, other current liabilities and current contractual liabilities.
At € 126.3 million, non-current liabilities were roughly at the same level as at 31 December 2021 (31 December 2021: € 124.5 million) without any significant changes to the individual items.
At € 691.1 million, equity was down on the comparative figure as at the balance sheet date (31 December 2021: € 814.1 million). The reduction in equity was mainly caused by the share buyback in the reporting period.
Essential financing measures
The financing of current business and necessary replacement investments was carried out from cash and cash equivalents and the operating cash flow in the reporting period. The same applies to all other investments.
Assets
The assets side of the balance sheet showed current assets of € 899.7 million as at 30 September 2022 (31 December 2021: € 1,071.7 million). Cash and cash equivalents decreased in the first nine months of 2022 to € 285.0 million as at 30 September 2022 (31 December 2021: € 653.0 million) and were thus the main factor in the decrease in current assets. This was offset by an increase in trade receivables to € 405.5 million (31 December 2021: € 299.1 million) and higher inventories of € 143.1 million (31 December 2021: € 72.1 million).
Non-current assets amounted to € 347.8 million as at 30 September 2022 (31 December 2021: € 334.9 million). Changes occurred primarily in goodwill, which increased to € 122.0 million as a result of the acquisition of the S&L Group (31 December 2021: € 113.5 million), and in other non-current financial assets, which increased to € 26.6 million as at the balance sheet date (31 December 2021: € 20.3 million).
Cash flow and liquidity
Based on a result for the period of € 27.3 million (previous year: € 260.9 million), the cash flow from operating activities for the reporting period from January to September 2022 is € -169.7 million (previous year: € -48.8 million). The main drivers of this development were, on the one hand, the increase in trade receivables and, on the other hand, the increased inventories, both compared to the level on 31 December 2021. At the same time, the level of trade payables and other liabilities was reduced overall, which also had a negative impact on the cash flow from operating activities. Overall, the current capital commitment in the company is unusually high due to the exceptional situation in the IT supply chain. In addition, there was a one-off special effect due to the changeover to a new ERP system in the CANCOM Group, which had a negative impact on the operating cash flow in the third quarter, but will gradually balance out in the following months.
Cash flow from investing activities in the first nine months of 2022 amounted to € -33.4 million and was thus back at a normal level for CANCOM after the previous year's figure (previous year: € 339.5 million), which was sharply higher due to the sale of business activities in the United Kingdom. The main extraordinary influencing factor in the current reporting period was the payments of € 10.3 million in connection with the acquisition of the S&L Group.
At € -164.9 million, the cash flow from financing activities in the reporting period was below the value of the comparable period (previous year: € -47.1 million). The cash flow was significantly influenced by the payments of € 117.4 million for the repurchase of treasury shares as part of the 2021 share buyback programme. Dividend payments of € 35.4 million were also recognised due to the dividend increase for the shares of CANCOM SE.
After the first nine months of 2022, there was thus a decrease of € 368.0 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to the cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the financial year. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to € 285.0 million as at 30 September 2022 (31 December 2021: € 653.0 million).
As a result, the CANCOM Group has a high positive level of cash and cash equivalents as at the reporting date of 30 September 2022 and can draw on unused credit lines with financial institutions as at the reporting date of this third-quarter announcement. This puts the CANCOM Group in an exceptionally strong position to meet its payment obligations at all times.
Events after the end of the reporting period
On 31 October 2022, the Executive Board of CANCOM SE adjusted the annual forecast for the CANCOM Group for the financial year 2022. For details on the adjustment of the forecast, please refer to the section "Forecast for the CANCOM Group" in the forecast report of this interim statement.
After the end of the reporting period, Mr Rüdiger Rath, the previous COO of the CANCOM Group, took over the position of CEO of CANCOM SE from Mr Rudolf Hotter on 1 November 2022.
Risks and opportunities of future development
In the reporting period, there have been no significant changes to the assessment of opportunities and risks with regard to the future development of the CANCOM Group already published in the Annual Report 2021. This is particularly the case because the current development of the global economy and the geopolitical situation, as well as the tense situation in the supply chain for IT components, are reflected in two items in particular, the "economic and (geo-)political risks" and the "supplier dependency risks" within the risk management system. These positions are already assessed as high risks in the risk assessment published in the Annual Report 2021 and are therefore in the highest possible risk level. Due to current events and the economically dynamic market situation, the "internal risks" were also continuously monitored and reviewed. However, no adjustment of the risk
categorisation is required for the aforementioned risk class compared to the Annual Report 2021. A detailed list of these opportunities and risks can be found in the Annual Report 2021, which was published on 29 March 2022.
FORECAST REPORT
The Executive Board updated the forecast for the CANCOM Group in an ad hoc announcement on 31 October 2022.
Premises of the forecast
The forecasts for the CANCOM Group and CANCOM SE include all information known to the Executive Board at the time of preparing this report that could have an influence on business development. The outlook is based, among other things, on the expectations described below with regard to economic development and the development of the IT market.
With regard to the CANCOM Group as a whole and the individual Group segments IT Solutions and Cloud Solutions, unforeseeable events could influence the development of the Company or individual Group segments expected from today's perspective. Such events include, for example, the consequences of short-term legal or regulatory changes. Such events are not taken into account in the forecast.
The forecast developments in the financial performance indicators relate exclusively to the development of the CANCOM Group in its Group structure as at the reporting date of 31 December 2021 (consolidated group), taking into account the spin-off of business activities in the USA from the forecast indicators in July 2022. Any acquisitions in the current financial year 2022 are not taken into account.
Development of the overall economy and the IT market
Overall economy
With a revenue share of around 90 percent, Germany is the most important sales market for the CANCOM Group. The most important foreign market is Austria. For all country markets in which CANCOM is active, Deutsche Bank forecasts GDP growth for 2022.
Gross domestic product outlook 2022* (Change on previous year in %) Germany +1.0 % Austria +4.3 % *) Source: Deutsche Bank Research, September 2022.
In addition to the general economic development in these country markets, the overall market for information and communication technology - especially in Germany - also forms an essential framework and basis of comparison for assessing the economic development of CANCOM.
ICT market
According to Bitkom, the industry association for the ICT sector, the market volume for information and communication technology (ICT) in Germany will grow by 4.7 percent in 2022 and rise to € 180.7 billion. The current outlook thus points to growth in the ICT market at the level of the previous year. The development will be positively driven by the largest sub-market in the ICT sector in terms of volume, the market for information technology (IT), which is particularly significant for CANCOM. Here Bitkom expects growth of 6.7 percent to € 113.0 billion (previous year: 6.6 percent), distributed among the individual market segments as follows:
Outlook: Information technology (IT) market 2022, Germany* (Change compared to previous year in %)

*) Source: Bitkom/IDC, July 2022.
Based on the course of business in the first nine months of the year and the currently foreseeable developments, the Executive Board assumes that demand in the ICT market will remain at the level forecast by Bitkom in the fourth quarter despite the worsening macroeconomic situation. However, supply bottlenecks for certain hardware components have not completely disappeared in the course of the year and continue to weigh on market development.
General conditions of the forecast
The forecasts of market observers such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for general economic development in the country markets relevant to CANCOM in 2022 have fallen in the course of the first half of the year. In addition, the industry association Bitkom has noted an increasing clouding of the business climate since the third quarter. The Executive Board assumes that the gloomy outlook will only have a minor impact on the CANCOM Group in the current financial year.
In the opinion of the Executive Board of CANCOM SE, in addition to these economic conditions for CANCOM, an important framework condition of the forecast is that the supply situation for IT components and products continues to normalise and remains at the level forecasted by Bitkom despite the worsened macroeconomic outlook. The order intake after the first nine months of the year remains at a high level and the order backlog is thus unchanged. The special situation of delayed call-offs from existing framework agreements with public clients, which extended into the second quarter, continued to normalise in the third quarter after easing at the end of the second quarter.
Forecast for the CANCOM Group
Following the increasing normalisation of business activity in the third quarter, the Executive Board specified its expectations for the development of the CANCOM Group on 31 October 2022. Based on the figures for the third quarter and taking into account the expected business activity in the fourth quarter, the Executive Board now expects:
Group revenue 2022: € 1,280 to 1,330 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 1,286.0 million)
Group gross profit 2022: € 435 to 445 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 425.6 million)
Group EBITDA 2022: € 116 to 123 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 122.6 million)
Group EBITA 2022: € 70 to 76 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 85.2 million)
For the Cloud Solutions segment, the Executive Board is planning the following figures for the 2022 financial year:
Cloud Solutions revenue 2022: € 280 to 290 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous figure of € 238.4 million)
Cloud Solutions EBITDA 2022: € 84 to 90 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 80.1 million)
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) as of 31 December 2022: € 215 to 225 million (previously: "very significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 181.8 million)
For the IT Solutions segment, the Management Board is planning the following figures for the 2022 financial year:
IT Solutions revenue 2022: € 1,000 to 1,040 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 1,047.3 million)
IT Solutions EBITDA 2022: € 48 to 53 million (previously: "significant growth" compared to adjusted previous year's figure of € 59.7 million)
The influence of the emerging economic slowdown and the geopolitical crises on the short-term business development of the CANCOM Group, which is difficult to assess, as well as the further development of the IT supply chain situation and inflation are the main risks for the forecast.
