DIVIDENDS PAID OR PROPOSED FOR PAYMENT

Considering the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the business activities and liquidity of CENIT AG, the Management Board and Supervisory Board have reviewed the original proposal for the appropriation of profits published in the Annual Report 2019 and the prospect of continuing the current dividend policy. After careful consideration, they have agreed that, in the interest of strengthening the company's stability in view of the economic and financial challenges that are expected in the current business year, a dividend payment is not appropriate at present.

SUPPLEMENTARY, OPPORTUNITIES AND FORECAST REPORTS

The COVID 19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the global economy and the countermeasures that have been taken have significantly restricted economic activity since mid‐March.

This will also have a significant impact on the business development of CENIT AG in 2020, especially since the majority of our customers belong to the automotive and aerospace industries, which are currently suffering particularly from the shutdown and production downtimes.

As it is not possible to estimate neither the duration nor the further spread of the pandemic, we are unable to make a reliable sales and earnings forecast at present. We hope that the economic situation will recover by the middle of the second half‐year 2020.
