Daimler Truck | Interim Report Q3 2025 5
From a business perspective, a distinction is made at selected points between Industrial Business and Financial Services. The Industrial Business comprises the vehicle segments Trucks North America, Mercedes-Benz Trucks, Trucks Asia, Daimler Buses and the reconciliation. Financial Services corresponds to the Financial Services segment. The eliminations of intra-Group transactions between the Industrial Business and Financial Services are generally allocated to the Industrial Business and are reported in the reconciliation.
Effective January 01, 2025, Daimler Truck Group (hereinafter also referred to as "Daimler Truck" or "Group") integrated its businesses in China and India from the Trucks Asia segment into the Mercedes-Benz segment. This formed one global Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment. All other activities of the Trucks Asia segment are not affected by this reorganization, nor are the Trucks North America, Daimler Buses and Financial Services segments. The figures for the 2025 financial year and the restated year-on-year comparison are based on the new segment composition.
Daimler Truck AG, Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (Mitsubishi Fuso), Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) and Hino Motors Ltd. (Hino) signed definitive agreements on June 10, 2025, with respect to the integration of Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino. The closing of the transaction is subject to the fulfillment of various closing conditions, such as the approval of Hino's shareholders meeting and that of the relevant authorities. The criteria for classification as "assets and liabilities held for sale" and as "discontinued operations" were fulfilled on June 06, 2025. The approval of the transaction by the Supervisory Boards of Daimler Truck AG and Daimler Truck Holding AG was granted on the same day.
Further explanations can be found in chapter E Profitability, liquidity and capital resources, and financial position and in E Note 2. Discontinued operations and assets held for sale in the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
This Interim Report provides information to assess any change in financial position, liquidity and capital resources and profitability as well as in the expected development compared to the annual financial reporting for the 2024 reporting year.
Detailed information on Daimler Truck's performance measurement system, including an explanation of financial and non-financial performance measures and performance indicators can be found in the chapter "Performance measurement system" from page 40 in the combined management report of the annual report for the 2024 reporting year at w www.daimlertruck.com/en/investors/reports/ financial-reports.
The 2024 Annual Report contains detailed information on objectives and strategy, business model, corporate governance and the Group Sustainability Statement of Daimler Truck.
These Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, consisting of the Consolidated Statement of Income, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the Interim Group Management Report were subject to an audit review by KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft.
For sustainability reasons, annual and interim reports are not printed. These are made available at w www.daimlertruck.com/en/ investors/reports/financial-reports and are available for download as a PDF. The report in this PDF format contains interactive elements. Tables of contents, page headers and references internal and external to the report are linked to the corresponding content.
Due to rounding, individual figures may not add up precisely to the totals shown and percentages presented may not accurately reflect the absolute values to which they relate. This report is available in German and English. The German version is binding. For better readability, names, brands and registered trademarks are not identified in this report.
For this reason, we use gender-neutral language throughout this report. In the interest of readability and for terms with legal meaning, we use the generic masculine form. In these cases, the terms chosen include all gender identities without limitation.
This document contains terms such as "zero-emission (heavy-duty) vehicle" (abbreviated "ZEV", "zero-emission vehicle"), "CO2e", "CO2e-neutral", "CO2e-neutral on the balance sheet" and "locally CO2e-free" or "CO2e-free in driving operation". A "zero-emission heavy-duty vehicle" is according to Article 3 point (11) (a) of the Regulation (EU) 2024/1610 a vehicle without an internal combustion engine or with an internal combustion engine with emissions of no more than 3 g CO2/(tkm) or 1 g CO2/(pkm). "CO2e" stands for carbon dioxide equivalent and refers to the total amount of greenhouse gases released by a particular activity or process. It takes into account not only carbon dioxide, but also other greenhouse gases such as methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and ozone (O3) by relating their climate impact to CO2. Since these gases have different effects on the climate, CO2e enables a holistic view of the climate effect of a particular activity. "CO2e-neutral" means that CO₂e emissions released into the atmosphere by a company's activities are offset by a corresponding amount of CO2e. Offsetting can be achieved through various measures: reducing emissions, reducing energy consumption, switching to renewable energies, etc., or by storing or absorbing CO₂. "CO2e-neutral on the balance sheet" means that CO₂e emissions released are offset by compensation certificates and related projects. "Locally CO2e-free" or "CO2e-free in driving operation" means that no carbon or carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) is emitted from the vehicle into the immediate surroundings while driving. Unless otherwise indicated, the same understanding of terms is used in each case throughout the entire document.

Daimler Truck AG, Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (Mitsubishi Fuso), Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) and Hino Motors Ltd. (Hino) signed definitive agreements on June 10, 2025, with respect to the integration of Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino. The criteria for classification as "assets and liabilities held for sale" and as "discontinued operations" were fulfilled on June 06, 2025.
In the discussions of Business Development, the summarized unit sales figures from continuing and discontinued operations are presented for the reporting and prior-year periods.
From a business perspective, a distinction is made at selected points between Industrial Business and Financial Services.

Financial Services corresponds to the Financial Services segment. The eliminations of intra-Group transactions between the Industrial Business and Financial Services are generally allocated to the Industrial Business and are reported in the reconciliation.

This formed one global Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment.

The figures for the 2025 financial year and the restated year-on-year comparison are based on the new segment composition.
The development of the global economy in the first nine months of 2025 remained stable overall. However, the introduction of tariffs had an impact on real economic growth. In addition, trade policy announcements by the USA contributed to increased uncertainty.
The momentum of the US economy has slowed so far in 2025 compared to the prior year due to restrictive trade policies. Nevertheless, private consumption had a stabilizing effect, and industrial production also continued its slight growth trajectory. However, the labor market situation deteriorated in the third quarter, prompting the Federal Reserve (Fed) to cut interest rates in September, despite inflation rates above target. This put the key interest rate in a range of 4.0% to 4.25% at the end of the quarter.
In the eurozone, negative effects from US tariff policy were only slightly noticeable in the first nine months of 2025. Foreign trade remained stable, and industrial production was above the previous year's level. The trade agreement between the EU and the USA likely contributed to this. Consumer price inflation in the eurozone rose slightly to 2.2% in September. At the end of the third quarter, the European Central Bank's (ECB) deposit rate was 2.0%.

.
In this uncertain environment, truck demand continued to decline. The North American market for heavy-duty trucks (Class 8) decreased by 20% in the third quarter of 2025. In the first nine months of the year, market volume was 12% below the prior year level. The market for heavy-duty trucks in the EU30 region (European Union, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway) increased by 6% in the third quarter. However, in the first nine months of the year, new registrations fell by 9% compared to the prior year level.
In the third quarter of 2025, the Daimler Truck Group sold 98,009 (Q3 2024: 114,917) vehicles worldwide. The number of zeroemission vehicles included therein increased significantly to 1,833 (Q3 2024: 666) units in the third quarter of 2025. ä A.01
The Trucks North America segment sold 30,225 (Q3 2024: 49,346) units in the third quarter of 2025. The significant decline in unit sales was mainly due to weaker markets and ongoing uncertainties resulting from US tariff policy. In the third quarter of 2025, unit sales fell significantly in the USA to 25,968 units (-37%) and in Canada to 2,760 units (-31%). The decline in unit sales in Mexico in the third quarter to 1,338 units (-66%) was related to the change in emissions legislation.
Unit sales in the Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment in the third quarter of 2025 were significantly higher than the previous year's level at 39,290 (Q3 2024: 36,415) units. The increase – also compared to the second quarter of 2025 – is due to increased order intake this year. In the EU30 region, unit sales increased significantly to 16,378 (Q3 2024: 12,466) units in the third quarter of 2025. In Latin America, we recorded a significant increase in unit sales of 10% to 9,911 units in the third quarter of 2025. The positive development in Latin America is due, among other things, to significant growth in Argentina. In India, the segment recorded a slight increase in unit sales in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the same period of the previous year, with 4,898 (Q3 2024: 4,683) units.
Unit sales in the Trucks Asia segment decreased significantly compared to prior year to 25,515 (Q3 2024: 27,721) units in the third quarter of 2025. This development is mainly due to a decline in demand in Indonesia. There, unit sales decreased significantly in the third quarter of 2025 to 4,848 (Q3 2024: 7,236) units, corresponding to a decline of 33%. In Japan, unit sales fell slightly by 5% to 7,758 units in the third quarter of 2025.
The Daimler Buses segment sold a total of 6,443 (Q3 2024: 6,698) units in the third quarter of 2025. The slight decline in unit sales is mainly due to the negative development of the Mexican and Brazilian market, which was only partially offset by growth in the EU30 region. In the EU30 region, we achieved a significant increase in unit sales of 16% to 2,064 (Q3 2024: 1,772) units in the third quarter of 2025. Unit sales in Brazil, our main market in Latin America, fell by 4% to 2,521 (Q3 2024: 2,636) units in the third quarter of 2025. In Mexico, we recorded a significant decline in unit sales of 59% to 429 units following the introduction of the Euro VI emissions standard and the negative economic development.

The Financial Services segment concluded new financing and leasing contracts totaling €2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2025, representing a significant decline of 14% compared to the prior year. This development is primarily attributable to the North America region, where contract volume declined by 28% due to market downturns.
Contract volume at the end of September 2025 was €29.0 billion, significantly below the level of the previous year-end (-10%). This decline was primarily due to negative currency effects and the expected normalization of dealer inventory financing in North America. Adjusted for exchange rate effects, contract volume decreased by only 5% compared to the end of the previous year.
Investments in property, plant and equipment of the Daimler Truck Group amounted to €278 million in the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024: €313 million).
Research and development expenditure including capitalization at Daimler Truck amounted to €520 million (Q3 2024: €472 million) in the third quarter of 2025.

Daimler Truck Holding AG held its Capital Market Day on July 08, 2025, at its Truck Manufacturing Plant in Cleveland, North Carolina, USA. Under the theme "Stronger 2030", a comprehensive strategic and financial outlook was presented. The focus was on its revised Group strategy, which is supported by five strategic pillars and is intended to drive both the Company's profitability and resilience. In addition, a new share buyback program for up to €2 billion over two years was announced during the Capital Market Day.
Daimler Truck and the French military vehicle manufacturer ARQUUS announced a strategic partnership on July 03, 2025. This cooperation comprises the joint development, production, sales, and service of military wheeled vehicles. The two companies aim to develop tailored products and processes to better meet the needs of customers in the defense sector, with a particular focus on contributing to the future modernization of the French Army's logistics truck fleet. ARQUUS and Daimler Truck will contribute their respective experience and strengths at their locations in France and Germany.
On July 10, 2025, the Daimler Truck Global Parts Center in Halberstadt, Germany, was officially opened. Since then, the new Daimler Truck site in the state of Saxony-Anhalt has served as the heart of Mercedes-Benz Trucks' global spare parts logistics, enabling fast and comprehensive parts supply — a key success factor for Daimler Truck. In the presence of Dr. Reiner Haseloff, Minister-President of Saxony-Anhalt, the gradual commissioning of the central logistics location began almost two years after the official groundbreaking ceremony. From the outset, the Global Parts Center was planned for CO₂e-neutral operation.

Mercedes-Benz do Brasil, a Brazilian subsidiary of Daimler Truck, has launched the new Mercedes-Benz Axor in the model variants 2038 4x2 and 2545 6x2 for the Brazilian market. The models are designed for medium- and long-distance road freight transport and expand the Mercedes-Benz Trucks portfolio in South America with another heavy-duty truck.

In mid-August 2025, Daimler Truck Financial Services (DTFS) Germany expanded its portfolio with the new eService Leasing. This offering is aimed at customers who want to integrate electric trucks into their fleet. With this new product, DTFS Germany is expanding its service portfolio for the transport industry. The goal is to simplify entry into e-mobility through a bundled package of financial services, service contract and further optional services. eService Leasing is based on a mileage-based leasing model and is complemented by a modular product package.
Five Mercedes-Benz GenH2 trucks successfully completed more than 225,000 kilometers in initial customer trials with Air Products, Amazon, Holcim, INEOS Inovyn, and Wiedmann & Winz. This distance corresponds to about five and a half trips around the earth along the equator. The aim was to test the reliability and efficiency of the vehicles under real-world conditions. At the same time, these customers were given the opportunity to gain early, practical experience in transporting goods with fuel cell trucks. In parallel, Daimler Truck has already started the development phase for the next generation of fuel cell trucks. As part of small-series production, a total of 100 semitrailer tractors are planned to be assembled at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Wörth and tested in practical operation by various customers from the end of 2026.
At the beginning of September, Daimler Buses deployed its first hydrogen-based fuel cell drive coach on test drives. The Setra brand's "H₂ Coach" technology showcase, along with battery-electric coaches, paves the way for the future of locally CO2e-free longer coach journeys. The H₂ Coach's technology is largely based on the drive components of the Mercedes-Benz GenH2 Truck and enables a minimum range of 800 kilometers with a full tank. Daimler Buses plans to include battery-electric coaches in its portfolio by the end of the decade. Fuel cell coaches are scheduled to enter series production in the following phase.
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Daimler Truck Financial Services (DTFS) has expanded its international activities with the launch of a Central Eastern Europe Hub based in Poland. In August, DTFS entered the Polish market in a first step with integrated leasing, financing and service products tailored to the commercial vehicle sector. The launch is part of DTFS's transformation from a pure financial services provider to a full-service partner for commercial vehicles as it expands its global operations.
Daimler Buses announced a cooperation with Otokar Otomotiv ve Savunma Sanayi A.Ş. (Otokar). Starting in September 2026, the Turkish commercial vehicle manufacturer will produce the Mercedes-Benz Conecto city bus for Daimler Buses at its plant in Sakarya, Türkiye. For this purpose, Daimler Buses will supply Otokar with key vehicle components and special production equipment. The reason for this contract production is the strong demand for buses of the Mercedes-Benz and Setra brands. Production at Otokar enables total production capacity to be increased and to positively contribute to the profitability of Daimler Buses.
Over the last few months, the Mercedes-Benz eActros 600 has been delivered to customers in more than 15 European countries, including the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, and France. The eActros 600 is used in a variety of logistics transport applications – from classic long-distance transport to demanding special tasks. As a result, Mercedes-Benz Trucks secured the top position in the locally CO2e-free heavy-duty vehicle segment in Europe in the second and third quarter of 2025 in terms of registration figures.
On September 30, 2025, Mercedes-Benz Trucks presented the eActros 400, a new variant based on the technology of the eActros 600. With numerous new combination options based on both models, Mercedes-Benz Trucks is specifically expanding its range of batteryelectric trucks to be able to meet even more logistics requirements in heavy-duty long-distance and distribution haulage electrically. The first new models have been available for order since October 2025, and some are scheduled to be completed at the Wörth plant before the end of this year.


Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Daimler Truck AG, Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (Mitsubishi Fuso), Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) and Hino Motors Ltd. (Hino) signed definitive agreements on June 10, 2025, with respect to the integration of Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino. The criteria for classification as "assets and liabilities held for sale" and as "discontinued operations" were fulfilled on June 06, 2025.
In the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, continuing and discontinued operations are presented separately; the previous year's figures have been restated. Since segment reporting remains unchanged in accordance with internal management and reporting regardless of this classification, Group EBIT from continuing operations is reconciled to the sum of continuing and discontinued operations. To ensure comparability of EBIT at the segment level with the prior year, scheduled depreciation, which is no longer required to be recognized from a Group perspective since June 06, 2025, is presented in the reconciliation. In the condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and in the presentation of net liquidity and net debt, continuing and discontinued operations are presented on a consolidated basis. In the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Mitsubishi Fuso's assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2025, are presented as assets and liabilities held for sale.
Further detailed information is included in E Note 2. Discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements.
In order to provide a better insight into profitability, liquidity and capital resources, and financial position, the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income, Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are presented for the Daimler Truck Group, and additionally for Industrial Business and Financial Services. The Industrial Business and Financial Services separation presents a business perspective. The Industrial Business comprises the automotive segments Trucks North America, Mercedes-Benz Trucks, Trucks Asia and Daimler Buses, and the reconciliation. Financial Services corresponds to the Financial Services segment. The elimination of intra-Group transactions between the Industrial Business and Financial Services are allocated to the Industrial Business and are reported under reconciliation.
As of January 01, 2025, Daimler Truck integrated its business in China and India into the Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment. The figures for the 2025 financial year and the restated year-on-year comparison are based on the new segment composition.
With the aim of achieving a more causation-based allocation, cost centers were reclassified within functional costs. For better comparability, the figures for the comparative period have also been restated. Further information is provided in E Note 1. Principles and methods used in the Interim Financial Statements.
To increase transparency, income from costs recharged between segments is no longer reported gross. Instead, it is offset against the associated functional cost within the respective segment – without impacting EBIT. At Group level, the new approach has no impact. Prior-period figures have been restated for better comparability.
The following information explains the changes in the reporting year compared to the prior year and takes into account all effects that are material from the Daimler Truck Group perspective.
The definition of sensitivities for the qualitative-comparative description of changes in key figures ("on", "slightly" and "significantly" above or below the prior year level) can be found in chapter "Performance measurement system" from page 40 in the combined management report of the annual report for the 2024 reporting year at w www.daimlertruck.com/en/investors/reports/ financial-reports.
Due to rounding, individual amounts may not add up precisely to the totals shown and percentages presented may not accurately reflect the absolute values to which they relate.
Further information on profitability, liquidity and capital resources, and financial position of the Group is provided in the Consolidated Statement of Income ä B.01, the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income ä B.02, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position ä B.03, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows ä B.04, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity ä B.05 and the relevant explanations in the Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Further Information

Revenue of the Daimler Truck Group amounted to €10.6 billion in the third quarter of 2025 and was 13% below that of the same period in the prior year (Q3 2024: €12.2 billion). Adjusted for exchange rate effects, revenue declined by 12%. This development was primarily due to significantly lower unit sales in the Industrial Business.
Cost of sales decreased slightly to €8.7 billion (Q3 2024: €9.8 billion), compared to the same quarter of the previous year. Significant effects resulted in particular from significantly lower unit sales in the Industrial Business.
Overall, gross profit decreased significantly to €1.9 billion (Q3 2024: €2.4 billion) and in relation to revenue from 19.5% to 17.6%.
In the third quarter of 2025 selling expenses fell significantly to €589 million (Q3 2024: €798 million), which was primarily due to a special item of €156 million in the prior year. This resulted from an impairment of trade receivables in connection with the ongoing discussions on the future of the China business.
General administrative expenses increased to €340 million (Q3 2024: €481 million), partly due to lower IT costs in connection with the spin-off from Mercedes-Benz Group AG.
Research and non-capitalized development costs increased significantly to €444 million (Q3 2024: €370 million), partly due to a lower capitalization rate compared to the same period of the previous year.
Other operating income increased to €115 million (Q3 2024: €99 million) in the third quarter of 2025.
The result from equity-method investments, net, in the third quarter of 2025 of minus €40 million (Q3 2024: minus €41 million) was at the previous year's level.
EBIT amounted to €553 million in the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024: €780 million) and was significantly below that of the same period in the prior year.
In the third quarter of 2025, an expense of €162 million (Q3 2024: expense of €289 million) was recognized under income taxes. The effective tax rate decreased to 28.5% (Q3 2024: 33.9%) compared to the high level of the previous year's quarter. An impairment of trade receivables increased the effective tax rate in Q3 2024.
The net profit from continuing operations after tax amounted to €407 million in the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024: €564 million) and the net profit from discontinued operations after tax amounted to €51 million (Q3 2024: €63 million).
Net profit of €458 million for the third quarter of 2025 was significantly below that of the prior year's period (Q3 2024: €627 million). Of the net profit, €24 million (Q3 2024: €17 million) was attributable to non-controlling interests.
The share of net profit attributable to shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG amounted to €434 million (Q3 2024: €610 million). Of this, €392 million (Q3 2024: €555 million) was attributable to continuing operations and €42 million (Q3 2024: €55 million) to discontinued operations. Earnings per share amounted to €0.57 (Q3 2024: €0.77), of which €0.51 (Q3 2024: €0.70) was from continuing operations and €0.06 (Q3 2024 €0.07) was from discontinued operations.
The calculation of earnings per share (basic) is based on an average number of outstanding shares of 766 million (Q3 2024: 793 million).

1 In the Industrial Business segments, adjusted return on sales is calculated as the ratio of adjusted EBIT to revenue. In Financial Services, adjusted return on equity is determined as the ratio of adjusted EBIT to the average quarterly equity.

The profitability of the capital employed in the Industrial Business is assessed using the return on capital employed. Detailed explanations of this and other key figures of our performance management system can be found in the chapter "Performance measurement system" from page 40 in the combined management report of the annual report for the 2024 reporting year at
w www.daimlertruck.com/en/investors/reports/financial-reports.
To calculate the return on capital employed of the Industrial Business, EBIT of the Industrial Business is annualized. The return on capital employed was 26.5% in the first nine months of 2025 (Q1-3 2024: 35.6%). The decline compared to the same period of the previous year was mainly due to the lower EBIT.
The calculation of the return on capital employed of the Industrial Business in the first nine months of 2025 is presented in the following table.

Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Further Information

Cash flows from operating activities ä A.11 resulted in cash inflow of €2.5 billion in the first nine months of 2025 (Q1-3 2024: cash outflow of €0.1 billion). Profit before income taxes was substantially below the prior year level. The development was mainly due to significantly lower unit sales in the Industrial Business.
Cash flows from operating activities were negatively impacted by the increase in working capital in the first nine months of 2025. This is mainly due to the seasonal increase in inventories of finished goods and work in progress.
Conversely, the reduction in receivables from financial services, primarily due to the anticipated normalization of dealer financing in North America, had a positive effect on cash flow from operating activities.
The changes in other operating assets and liabilities include negative effects, particularly from the reduction in contractual liabilities from advance payments received, liabilities from residual value guarantees resulting from repurchase agreements and the reduction in deferred income.
Cash flows from investing activities ä A.11 resulted in a cash outflow of €1.3 billion (Q1-3 2024: €1.6 billion). The change in the first nine months of 2025 resulted mainly from additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as from the acquisition of money market funds.
Cash flows from financing activities ä A.11 resulted in a cash inflow of €0.5 billion (Q1-3 2024: cash inflow €2.4 billion). The cash inflows in the first nine months of 2025 resulted from borrowings on international money and capital markets in the amount of €6.1 billion and from issuing Asset Backed-Securities (ABS) in the amount of €0.6 billion. The issuance of bonds took place mainly in the USA, Canada and Netherlands.
On the other hand, cash outflows were mainly due to dividends paid to shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG amounting to €1.5 billion, the share buyback program in the amount of €0.6 billion and the repayment of bonds and external financing liabilities.

A reconciliation to profit before income taxes from continuing and discontinued operations is also included in note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
The main indicator of the financial strength of the Daimler Truck Group is the free cash flow of the Industrial Business ä A.12. Detailed information on this and other key figures of our performance measurement system can be found in the chapter "Performance measurement system" from page 40 in the combined management report of the Annual Report for the 2024 reporting year at w www.daimlertruck.com/en/investors/reports/financial-reports.
In the first nine months of 2025, the free cash flow of the Industrial Business resulted in a cash inflow of €0.1 billion (Q1-3 2024: cash inflow of €0.9 billion). The decrease compared to the same period of the previous year was impacted by the following factors:
For a more transparent presentation of the ongoing business, the Group identifies and reports an adjusted free cash flow of the Industrial Business ä A.12. The adjustments in the first nine months of 2025 are a result from restructuring measures, legal proceedings and M&A-related matters. The adjusted free cash flow of the Industrial Business shows a cash inflow of €0.4 billion (Q1-3 2024: cash inflow of €1.2 billion).

In addition to being derived on the basis of published cash flows from operating and investing activities, the free cash flow of the Industrial Business can be derived from the cash flows before interest and taxes (CFBIT). The reconciliation from the CFBIT to the free cash flow of the Industrial Business includes taxes and interest paid. The other reconciling items are items attributable to the Industrial Business but for which the segments are not responsible, as well as eliminations between the segments.
Table ä A.13 shows the reconciliation of the CFBIT to the free cash flow of the Industrial Business.

The CFBIT of the Industrial Business is derived from EBIT and changes in operating assets and liabilities ("net assets") and includes additions to right-of-use assets.
Table ä A.14 shows the composition of CFBIT for the Industrial Business. Table ä A.15 shows the reconciliation from CFBIT to adjusted CFBIT and the adjusted cash conversion rate for the Industrial Business.
In the first nine months of 2025, an adjusted cash conversion rate of 0.4 was achieved for the Industrial Business of the Daimler Truck Group. This is lower than the first nine months of 2024, which was 0.7.

The net liquidity of the Industrial Business, shown in table ä A.16, decreased by €2.7 billion to €5.9 billion in the first nine months of 2025. The decrease is mainly due to the dividend paid to the shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG in the second quarter of €1.5 billion, the cash outflow resulting from the share buyback program of €0.6 billion, negative effects from exchange rates of €0.5 billion and dividends paid to non-controlling interests of €0.2 billion. This was offset by the positive free cash flow of the Industrial Business of €0.1 billion.
The stable gross liquidity and the increase in financing liabilities of the Industrial Business result mainly from issuance of bonds in the USA, Canada and the Netherlands.

1 The elimination of intragroup transactions within assets held for sale resulted in a negative presentation in other financial assets.
In addition to the effects from assets and liabilities held for sale, the following changes were recorded in the balance sheet items.
The increase in total assets was primarily due to an increase in cash and cash equivalents and inventories. This was offset by the decrease in receivables from financial services.
Intangible assets were slightly below the prior year level. The additions to development costs capitalized amounted to €223 million in the first nine months of 2025 (Q1-3 2024: €323 million) which represents a share of 11.9% (Q1-3 2024: 21.6%) in the Group's total research and development activities. The development costs capitalized is mainly due to several product and technology projects, including in the area of locally CO2e-free transport. In the second quarter of 2025, capitalized development costs amounting to €218 million were derecognized due to the delayed transformation speed of battery-electric vehicles, especially in the US market. This was not cash effective.
Property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets) were at prior year level. Investments in property, plant and equipment in the first nine months of 2025 decreased slightly to €629 million (Q1-3 2024: €746 million). In our production and assembly sites, investments were made primarily in preparation for production of further zero-emission vehicles in order to support the transformation to e-mobility. In addition, investments were also made in the expansion of our sales and spare parts centers as well as in the ongoing development of the existing product portfolio and plants. In the first nine months of 2025, the German sites accounted for investments in property, plant and equipment of €296 million (Q1-3 2024: €377 million).
Equipment on operating leases as well as receivables from financial services were slightly below prior year level. The decrease in receivables from financial services was primarily due to negative effects from exchange rates and the normalization of dealer financing in North America and lower new business in sales financing with end customers in North America. The share of the leasing and sales financing business of 41.2% of total assets was at the prior year level (December 31, 2024: 45.1%).
The slight increase of Inventories is mainly due to the seasonal increase in work in progress and finished goods.
Cash and cash equivalents and marketable debt securities were significantly above the prior year level. The increase in the first nine months of 2025 resulted primarily from borrowings on international money and capital markets and positive cash inflows from operating activities. The increase was offset by the effects of the dividend payment to the shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG, cash outflows from investing activities as well as from the share buyback program, and the repayment of external financial liabilities, particularly bonds.
On the equity and liabilities side of the balance sheet, there were primarily decreases in equity and in provisions.
The Group's equity of €21.5 billion was slightly below the prior year level (December 31, 2024: €22.9 billion). The largest impact resulted from the dividend payments to the shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG of €1.5 billion, the currency translation of €1.1 billion and from the acquisition of treasury shares of €0.6 billion. This was offset by the Group's net profit from continuing and from discontinued operations of €1.6 billion.
Total assets decreased by 3%. Equity also decreased by 6% compared to the prior year. The Group's equity ratio of 30.0% was at the prior year level (December 31, 2024: 30.9%); the equity ratio for the Industrial Business was 44.7% (December 31, 2024: 49.2%).
Provisions were below the previous year's level. The increase in personnel provisions particularly in the second quarter of 2025 for restructuring measures within the "Cost Down Europe" program was substantially compensated by the utilization of the long-term variable remuneration, executive and staff bonus provisions as well as positive effects from exchange rates.
Financing liabilities were at the prior year level. During the first nine months of 2025, bonds in amount of €6.1 billion were issued on the international money and capital markets as well as Asset-Backed-Securities (ABS) with a total volume corresponding to €0.6 billion. This was offset by the repayment of bonds in the amount of €3.5 billion and positive effects from exchange rates.
Interim Group Management Report > Risk and Opportunity Report Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Further Information

The Daimler Truck Group is exposed to a multitude of risks and opportunities arising from both its own business activities as well as from external factors. To identify, measure, and manage these risks and opportunities at an early stage, the Group relies on a comprehensive and effective management and control system, which is embedded in the risk and opportunity management system.
A detailed description of the risk and opportunity management system, as well as the current overall assessment of the risk and opportunity situation, can be found in the "Risk and Opportunity Report" within the combined management report of the 2024 Annual Report. The following section explains the material changes in the risks and opportunities compared to December 31, 2024, which could potentially have a material impact on the profitability, liquidity and capital resources, and financial position of the Daimler Truck Group. A material impact is expected if the revaluation of the probability of occurrence or of the impact of risks and opportunities results in a classification as "high", and if risks and opportunities previously rated as "high" are now classified as "medium" or "low". Risks and opportunities are continuously monitored, regularly evaluated and incorporated into the business plans during the year as necessary.
Weaker markets and continued uncertainty due to US tariff policy are expected for the current fiscal year, which is reflected in a decline in general market opportunities.
Despite the decline in risks and opportunities related to financial bottlenecks among suppliers, as well as that of risks related to commodity, raw materials, and energy prices due to the shortened assessment period for the remainder of the 2025 financial year, as well as the incorporation of risks and opportunities in the financial plans, risks associated with the procurement market continue to be classified as high. This assessment includes potential additional constraints in international supply chains, which pose the risk of production disruptions and delayed vehicle deliveries.
The remainder of the 2025 financial year will continue to be subject to uncertainties resulting from the current geopolitical risk landscape and the potential impact of various global events on the Daimler Truck Group. Both the further development of the Russia-Ukraine war, and the announcement and implementation of US import tariffs continue to pose significant risks to the Group.
In view of Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine, the EU adopted another sanctions package in 2024, aiming in particular at being able to take better action against the circumvention of existing sanctions. Daimler Truck has also been and may be the subject of governmental inquiries or investigations regarding its or its joint ventures' compliance or the compliance of its or its joint ventures' employees, consultants, agents or partners, including joint venture partners, with matters such as export controls, sanctions or other governmental policies. The war in Ukraine could escalate further and, in the worst case, spread to other countries. Such an expansion would pose a significant risk to Daimler Truck's market environment.
Since November 01, 2025 Daimler Truck been subject to a US Presidential Proclamation to protect national security, a new customs environment that has a negative impact on the Group. The use of US import tariffs as a key economic policy instrument has increased global economic uncertainty and continues to pose a significant risk to the Group, particularly with regard to the effectiveness of planned measures by the Daimler Truck Group to compensate for negative impacts. Additionally, this may result to the introduction of reciprocal tariffs, causing additional effects on exchange rates.
During the reporting period, a significant decrease in production and technology risks was observed. This development can be attributed to increasing certainty as a result of progress in planning with regard to technical feasibility, production processes, and technological advances.
In addition, the agreement between management and the general works council on the key measures for the German locations of the Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment, as part of the Company's internal restructuring and efficiency program "Cost Down Europe", and the associated recognition of corresponding provisions, has led to a significant reduction in personnel risks.
Due to the Group's global focus, its operating business and financial transactions give rise to both risks and opportunities related to exchange rate fluctuations. Both transaction and translation risks decreased for the remainder of the 2025 financial year. This development is due to the stabilization of exchange rates, as well as the shortened assessment period for the remainder of the 2025 fiscal year.

As of January 01, 2025, Daimler Truck integrated its business in China and India into the Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment. The outlook for the 2025 financial year and the adjusted prior year figures are based on the new segment composition.
The closing of the transaction to integrate Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino, the commencement of operations and the initial listing of the new holding company ARCHION Corporation, with its registered office in Tokio, Japan, is targeted for April 01, 2026. Consequently, the forecast key figures – in line with the previous forecasts for the 2025 financial year – continue to include Mitsubishi Fuso's business and thus encompass both continuing and discontinued operations. The effects of the discontinuation of scheduled depreciation and amortization as well as the costs related to the transaction do not affect the outlook key figures, as they are reported in the reconciliation and considered as adjustments in EBIT.
In January 2025, the evaluation process for implementing restructuring and efficiency measures was initiated at Daimler Truck as part of the "Cost Down Europe" program with the aim to make Daimler Truck sustainably competitive in Europe and to generate strong returns for investments in the future. Daimler Truck aims to reduce annually recurring costs by more than €1 billion by latest 2030. In April 2025, the management and the General Works Council have agreed on the framework conditions for improving efficiency. As a result of these measures, a provision for restructuring measures was recognized in the first nine months of the year. As of September 30, 2025, the total amount stands at €340 million. The resulting expense was treated as an adjusted item and will have no material impact on the free cash flow of the Industrial Business in 2025.
The outlook for the 2025 financial year remains subject to further macroeconomic and geopolitical developments. It is based on the assumption that we can continue to operate under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). Since November 1, 2025, we have been subject to new customs regulations resulting from a US Presidential Proclamation issued pursuant to Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act. These regulations impose additional tariffs on heavy and medium duty trucks, which will negatively impact the profitability and free cash flow of the Industrial Business. We expect to be able to offset these effects with countermeasures during the outlook period.
Potential bottlenecks in international supply chains, particularly with regard to the supply of semiconductor components, could have additional adverse effects on our production processes.
Depending on the outcome of the ongoing discussions with our partner regarding our China business, we continue to expect further financial implications. However, we anticipate that these will not materialize within the current outlook period.
For the current reporting year, we expect global economic growth to slow slightly compared to the prior year. The US tariffs that have been decided and implemented are likely to have a negative impact on global trade, although trade agreements with the USA could mitigate these effects. Increased uncertainty in the reporting year is also leading to weakening overall economic demand. It cannot be ruled out that further current geopolitical risks could have a negative impact on the real economy. According to our forecasts, the global economy should grow by 2.5% in 2025.
The economic performance of the eurozone is expected to grow by up to 1.5% in 2025. For 2025, our forecasts assume an average increase in consumer prices of 2.0% in the eurozone.
The economic outlook for the United States remains uncertain. The import tariffs imposed on goods from important trading partners is likely to increase inflation again, which could slow consumption. Overall, we expect an average inflation rate of up to 3.0% for 2025 and US economic growth of around 2.0%.

Daimler Truck AG, Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (Mitsubishi Fuso), Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) and Hino Motors Ltd. (Hino) signed Definitive Agreements on June 10, 2025, with respect to the integration of Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino. The closing of the transaction is subject to the fulfillment of various closing conditions, such as the approval of Hino's shareholders meeting and that of the relevant authorities.
Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino will integrate on an equal footing and cooperate in the areas of commercial vehicle development, procurement and production, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. The closing of the transaction to integrate Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino, the commencement of operations and the initial listing of the new holding company ARCHION Corporation, with its registered office in Tokio, Japan, is targeted for April 01, 2026. Daimler Truck AG and Toyota each intend to acquire a 25% stake in the new holding company, which is planned to be listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market and which will own 100% of Mitsubishi Fuso and Hino. The investment in the new holding company is to be included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
The criteria for classification as assets and liabilities held for sale and as discontinued operations were fulfilled on June 06, 2025. The approval of the transaction by the Supervisory Boards of Daimler Truck AG and Daimler Truck Holding AG was granted on the same day.
Continuing operations are presented in the consolidated statement of income; the profit or loss after tax of discontinued operations is shown in a separate line. The previous year's figures have been restated accordingly. Unless otherwise indicated, the information presented in the notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in respect of the income statement relate to continuing operations. The Trucks Asia segment includes Mitsubishi Fuso and its fully consolidated subsidiaries (Mitsubishi Fuso subgroup).
The differences in segment Trucks Asia mainly result from allocations recorded in segment reporting that relate to corporate functions which are not part of the disposal group. In line with the internal management and reporting structure, all segments are presented on an unchanged basis in the segment reporting.
In the consolidated statement of financial position, assets and liabilities of the Mitsubishi Fuso subgroup have been presented as assets and liabilities held for sale since June 30, 2025. The amounts in the statement of financial position for the previous year are shown in line with the previous method of presentation, in accordance with IFRS.
In the consolidated statement of cash flows, consolidated cash flows from continuing and discontinued operations are presented for the reporting period and the prior-year period.
The investments in operating entities and business operations of the Mitsubishi Fuso subgroup will be transferred to the new holding company after the effective date. Accordingly, from June 06, 2025, the assets and liabilities held for sale are presented separately in the balance sheet and classified as a disposal group.
As a result, the scheduled depreciation and amortization as well as the equity-method measurements of the non-current assets classified as held for sale are discontinued from this date.
The disposal group is measured at fair value using the discounted cash flow method. The input factors used in this method were allocated to level 3 of the measurement hierarchy.
The assets and liabilities held for sale are presented in table ä B.07.
Assets and liabilities held for sale are measured in accordance with the applicable IFRS. This also included an impairment test for the Mitsubishi Fuso subgroup which did not result in any need for impairment.
Other reserves in shareholders' equity currently include cumulative expenses in connection with assets and liabilities classified as held for sale (minus €590 million).

Revenue presented in the Consolidated Statement of Income includes revenue from contracts with customers, and other revenue not in the scope of IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
Revenue from contracts with customers (according to IFRS 15) is disaggregated into two categories – type of products and services, and geographical regions – and presented in table ä B.11. The category type of products and services corresponds to the reportable segments, taking into account the revised segment allocation of Daimler Truck as of January 01, 2025 as well as discontinued operations, as presented in E Note 2. Discontinued operations and assets and liabilities held for sale and E Note 19. Segment reporting. The change in segment allocation also affects the disaggregation of revenue by geographical regions. The comparative period has been restated accordingly.
Other revenue primarily comprises revenue from the rental and leasing business, interest from the financial services business and effects from currency hedging.

With the aim of achieving a more causation-based allocation, cost centers were reclassified within functional costs, as shown in E Note 1. Principles and methods used in the Interim Financial Statements.
In the first nine months of 2025, expenses totaling €340 million from cost optimization programs in connection with the "Cost Down Europe" program announced in January 2025 to reduce costs and cut jobs in a socially responsible manner had an impact on all functional cost areas.
Selling expenses decreased to €589 million in the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024: €798 million) and to €1,793 million in the first nine months of 2025 (Q1-3 2024: €2,142 million). The prior year included a special item of €156 million from the impairment of trade receivables, which resulted from ongoing discussions on the future of the China business.
In the third quarter of 2025, general administrative expenses decreased to €340 million (Q3 2024: €481 million) and to €1,327 million (Q1-3 2024: €1,402 million) in the first nine months of 2025, partly due to lower IT costs in connection with the spin-off from Mercedes-Benz Group AG.
In the third quarter of 2025, research and non-capitalized development costs increased to €444 million (Q3 2024: €370 million), and in the first nine months of 2025 to €1,650 million (Q1-3 2024: €1,172 million). They were influenced mainly by a special item of €218 million in the second quarter of 2025 resulting from the non-cash derecognition of capitalized development costs due to the delayed transformation speed of battery-electric vehicles, especially in the US market.

| Effective tax rate | 28.5% | 33.9% | 30.2% | 30.7% |
In the third quarter of 2024, the change in permanent differences had an increasing effect on the effective tax rate, primarily due to an impairment of trade receivables.
On July 11, 2025, the German Bundesrat approved a reduction of the corporate tax rate from 15% to 10% over a five-year period beginning in 2028. This legislative amendment was taken into account for the calculation of deferred taxes for German-based group companies as of September 30, 2025.

| Other intangible assets¹ | 1,180 | 1,315 |
| 2,727 | 3,209 |
1 Other intangible assets include acquired assets subject to amortization and assets with indefinite useful lives not subject to amortization.
Intangible assets comprise additions to capitalized development costs of €57 million in the third quarter of 2025 (Q3 2024: €79 million) and of €223 million (Q1-3 2024: €323 million) in the first nine months of 2025. These primarily result from several product and technology projects, including in the area of locally CO2e-free transport.
In the second quarter of 2025, capitalized development costs amounting to €218 million were derecognized due to the delayed transformation speed of battery-electric vehicles, especially in the US market. This was not cash effective.
Amortization of capitalized development costs for the third quarter of 2025 amounted to €19 million (Q3 2024: €19 million) and in the first nine months of 2025 €67 million (Q1-3 2024: €57 million).
Property, plant and equipment as presented in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position with a carrying amount of €6,745 million at September 30, 2025 (December 31, 2024: €8,413 million) included right-of-use assets from lessee accounting.

The joint venture is equally owned by both parties and since June is included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method. Coretura-related activities are not assigned to a reportable segment, but are instead included in the reconciliation section of the segment reporting. As of September 30, 2025, the equity-accounted carrying amount in the Daimler Truck Group amounted to €49 million.

In the course of the share buyback program, which ended on August 01, 2025, a total of 57,351,483 treasury shares with a total value of €2.0 billion were repurchased over a period of two years. Of these, 16,173,237 treasury shares were repurchased during the reporting period at a total purchase price of €616 million (including expenses for the implementation of the share buyback program), which are presented within the "Treasury share reserve" column in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity.
The Annual General Meeting, held on May 27, 2025 authorized Daimler Truck Holding AG to pay €1,462 million (€1.90 per no-par-value registered share entitled to dividend) to the shareholders from the 2024 distributable profit of Daimler Truck Holding AG and - of the remaining distributable profit - to carry forward €875 million. The dividend was paid on June 02, 2025.
The remaining components of equity include, among other things, changes in the scope of consolidation resulting from the first consolidation of Daimler Truck Innovation Center India Private Limited.

The composition of provisions for pensions and similar obligations is shown in table ä B.20. The change in provision for pension benefits results mainly from the change in discount rates and the performance of plan assets.

Provisions for other risks are comprised as shown in table ä B.22.
In the first nine months of 2025, an increase in personnel provisions for restructuring measures in the amount of €340 million within the "Cost Down Europe" program was recognized. This was substantially compensated for by the utilization of the long-term variable remuneration, executive and staff bonus provisions.
The decrease in product warranties was mainly due to the falling US dollar exchange rate against the euro, as well as the reclassification of balances related to discontinued operations.

Table ä B.23 shows the composition of the financing liabilities.
In the first nine months of 2025, bonds in amount of €6,128 million were issued on the international money and capital markets as well as Asset-Backed-Securities (ABS) with a total volume corresponding to €638 million. This was offset by the repayment of bonds in the amount of €3,459 million and positive effects from exchange rates. Furthermore, liabilities to financial institutions increased by €711 million.
| 15. Deferred income | |
|---|---|
| --------------------- | -- |
The composition of deferred income is shown in table ä B.24.
The decrease of deferred income during the first nine months of 2025 is primarily due to the deferral of sales revenue resulting from repurchase agreements that are accounted for as operating leases.

As described in Note 30. Legal Proceedings of the 2024 Consolidated Financial Statements, Daimler Truck Holding AG and its subsidiaries are confronted with various litigations, claims and regulations (legal proceedings) which are related to a wide range of topics. There were no significant changes in the reporting period.
Other financial obligations decreased by €125 million as of September 30, 2025, with the change already adjusted for currency effects. The reduction was mainly due to capital payments to the joint ventures Amplify Cell Technologies LLC and Commercial Vehicle Charging BV.

Table ä B.25 shows the carrying amounts and fair values for the respective classes of financial instruments for the Group's continuing and discontinued operations, excluding equity instruments measured at amortized cost and not in the scope of IFRS 9, and lease liabilities.
The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Given the varying influencing factors, the reported fair values can be viewed only as indicators of prices that may actually be achieved on the market.
The fair values of financial instruments were calculated on the basis of market information available on the balance sheet date. The methods and premises used are explained in Note 1. General information and significant accounting policies of the 2024 Consolidated Financial Statements.
The increase in cash and cash equivalents in the first nine months of 2025 resulted primarily from borrowings on international money and capital markets and positive cash inflows from operating activities. The increase was offset by the effects of the dividend payment to the shareholders of Daimler Truck Holding AG, cash outflows from investing activities as well as the share buyback program, and the repayment of external financial liabilities, particularly bonds.
The marketable debt securities and similar investments increased to €2.6 billion (December 31, 2024: €2.3 billion). The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of money market funds.
Financing liabilities increased to €28.9 billion in the first nine months of 2025 (December 31, 2024: €27.6 billion) and are described in E Note 14. Financing liabilities.

Table ä B.26 provides an overview of the classification into measurement hierarchies of financial assets and liabilities recognized at fair value (according to IFRS 13) of the continuing and discontinued operations.
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the necessity for reclassification between the fair-value hierarchies.

1 Fair-value measurement is based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for these or identical assets or liabilities.
2 Fair-value measurement is based on inputs that are observable on active markets either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices).
3 Fair-value measurement is based on inputs for which no observable market data is available.

Segment information for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 can be found in table ä B.27. The table shows the sum of continuing and discontinued operations. The Trucks Asia segment includes the Mitsubishi Fuso subgroup (discontinued operations). Deviations primarily result from allocations related to corporate functions.
As of January 01, 2025, Daimler Truck has integrated its businesses in China and India from the Trucks Asia segment into the Mercedes-Benz segment, thereby forming a global Mercedes-Benz Trucks segment. All other activities of the Trucks Asia segment are not affected by this reorganization. In addition, there were insignificant impacts on the segments Trucks North America and Daimler Buses arising from the changes in allocations and no impact on Financial Services segment. The new allocations have no impact on Daimler Truck Group level. The comparative period has been restated accordingly.

To Daimler Truck Holding AG, Stuttgart
We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Daimler Truck Holding AG – comprising Consolidated Statement of Income, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements – together with the interim group management report of the Daimler Truck Holding AG, for the period from January 1 to September 30, 2025 that are part of the quarterly financial report according to Section 115 WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": "German Securities Trading Act"]. The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.
We performed our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries
of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.
Based on our review, no matters have come to our attention that cause us to presume that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU, or that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.
