statement
The Lufthansa Group developed extremely positively in the first half-year of 2023. Demand for air travel remains high, with no slowdown currently in sight in spite of the challenging macroeconomic environment. Our Passenger Airlines continued to expand their capacity accordingly, reaching around 90% of the pre-crisis level in the summer months.
Thanks to the strong development in demand, we were able to achieve a positive result in the first half-year of 2023. Adjusted EBIT improved from EUR -185m to EUR 812m. The result for the second quarter was a record: Adjusted EBIT has never been higher in a second quarter before. All of our business segments contributed to this development with positive earnings. Logistics was the only business segment to report a lower result than in the previous year due to the normalisation across the industry. We were also able to continue to strengthen our balance sheet and reduce debt.
In addition to the positive operational and financial development, we have made further significant progress. The second quarter of 2023 was a milestone in the Lufthansa Group's ongoing development into an airline group. We announced three major M&A transactions in just three months. We found new owners for the LSG Group and AirPlus, which offer few synergies with our core business, thus laying the groundwork for a successful future for both companies. Our investment in ITA Airways also further strengthens our core business by expanding our market access in Italy and continuing to diversify our business internationally. Our "multi-hub, multi-brand and multi-AOC" strategy offers ideal conditions for the optimal continued development of ITA Airways and the realization of extensive synergies. We are currently preparing to assume joint operational control and make ITA Airways profitable immediately upon after receiving regulatory approvals.
Customer satisfaction is the central focus of all our activities. This year, we have achieved significantly more stability in the overall air traffic system compared to the previous year through extensive new employee hires, operational process improvements, especially in digital services, and close cooperation with our system partners. Nevertheless, bottlenecks remain, especially in air traffic control and ground handling services.
We expect to add more than 30 new aircraft this year as we continue our fleet modernisation. Preparations for the conversion of the Lufthansa long-haul fleet to our new "Allegris" cabin interior are in full swing. In future, our passengers will not only fly more comfortably and with a greater ability to personalise their journeys, but they will also have the opportunity to make their journeys more sustainable thanks to our recently introduced Green Fares.
The positive developments in the first six months of the financial year and current bookings make us optimistic for the remainder of the year. We expect a significant year-on-year increase in revenue and an Adjusted EBIT of at least EUR 2.6bn for the full year 2023. This puts us on track to achieve our 2024 targets of an Adjusted EBIT margin of at least 8% and an Adjusted ROCE of at least 10%.
We are pleased that you are accompanying us on our journey. And we look forward to welcoming you on board our aircraft again.
Frankfurt, 1 August 2023

— The virtual Annual General Meeting of Deutsche Lufthansa AG took place on 9 May 2023.
—The shareholders approved all items on the agenda with a large majority; Karl-Ludwig Kley, acting Supervisory Board Chairman, and Carsten Knobel, Chairman of the Executive Board and CEO of Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, were re-elected to the Supervisory Board; Karl Gernandt, Executive Chairman of Kühne Holding AG, was newly elected to the Supervisory Board.
— Since 30 June 2023, no events of particular importance have occurred that would be expected to have a significant influence on the net assets, financial and earnings position that have not already been reported.
— Due to the agreed sale of the LSG Group to Aurelius, all the income and expenses associated with the discontinued Catering business have been separated from the respective items in the income statement and presented as a combined item under earnings after taxes in the line item "Profit/loss from discontinued operations" immediately above the "Net profit/loss" line item; this item also includes valuation adjustments made in connection with the measurement in accordance with IFRS 5; the figures for the previous year have been adjusted accordingly.
pacities as a result of the rise in demand for air travel, thus reaching 85% of the pre-crisis level; however, sales (reve- nue cargo tonne-kilometres) fell by 1% on the previous year; the cargo load factor of 57.5% was 6.3 percentage points lower than in the previous year and traffic revenue for the cargo business declined by 39% to EUR 1,675m (previous year: EUR 2,724m) due to lower yields. —Compared with the previous year, traffic revenue at Lufthansa Group airlines rose overall in the first half of 2023 by 29% to EUR 13,751m (previous year: EUR 10,668m). Revenue up by 26% year-on-year —

Revenue (comprising traffic revenue and other revenue) increased by 26% to EUR 16,406m (previous year: EUR 13,002m); other operating income rose by 46% to EUR 1,439m (previous year: EUR 983m) due in particular to other own work capitalised and foreign exchange gains; operating income increased by 28% to EUR 17,845m (previous year: EUR 13,985m). Operating expenses up 20% on last year —
In the first half of 2023, the Lufthansa Group's operating expenses rose by 20% year-on-year to EUR 17,010m (pre- vious year: EUR 14,123m); this mainly reflected its busi- ness growth as well as inflation-related cost increases. —
EUR 2,111m (previous year: EUR 1,677m), primarily due to the Lufthansa Group's business growth.
and reserve engines, were offset by book gains of EUR 21m, particularly from the sale of shares in joint venture companies; in the previous year, the adjustments included expenses directly associated with the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine as well as net income in connection with the reversal of provisions for restructuring measures.
—Income taxes amounted to EUR -78m (previous year: EUR 11m); the effective tax ratio for continuing operations was 15%, primarily due to non-taxable income.
—The result from continuing operations therefore came to EUR 453m (previous year: EUR -286m).

1) Previous year's figures adjusted due to the agreed sale of the LSG Group. ↗ Notes, p. 37.
—In the first half of 2023, the Lufthansa Group achieved a positive operating cash flow in the amount of EUR 3,100m; this was 30% lower than the previous year's level (previous year: EUR 4,441m); the decline is mainly due to the lower inflow resulting from the change in
working capital compared with the previous year (EUR 1,679m, previous year: EUR 3,177m), which more than offset the increase in EBITDA, which was exceptionally high in the previous year due to the sharp rise in business activity and the resulting higher advance ticket payments.
— The inflow resulting from the change in working capital was associated with a higher volume of liabilities due to unused flight documents, which increased by EUR 2,119m in the first half of 2023 (previous year: EUR 3,328m); receivables and contract assets rose by EUR 397m, in particular due to the continued recovery of business activity at AirPlus, while liabilities and contract liabilities increased by EUR 122m; in addition, the net balance of other assets/liabilities from the provision of services increased by EUR 129m; these trends relate to the changes in the carrying amounts for continuing operations and discontinued operations; other balance sheet changes with an effect of EUR -271m included variable remuneration payments.
— Adjusted free cash flow fell by 63% to EUR 1,071m in the first half of 2023 (previous year: EUR 2,902m) due to the decline in operating cash flow and increased net investments.

1) Capital payments of operating lease liabilities within cash flow from financing activities.
— As of 30 June 2023, total Group assets rose by EUR 1,980m over year-end 2022 to EUR 45,315m (31 December 2022: EUR 43,335m).
fleet comprised a total of 716 aircraft (31 December 2022: 710 aircraft).

— As of 30 June 2023, current provisions and liabilities rose by EUR 3,282m to EUR 20,990m (31 December 2022: EUR 17,708m), primarily as a result of the increase in liabilities from flight tickets not yet used (EUR +2,119m) due to the increase in ticket sales as well as the increase in current financial liabilities (EUR +717m) as a result of maturity reclassifications; this was partly offset by scheduled repayments and reclassifications of the operations held for sale; the increase in liabilities in connection with assets held for sale (EUR +1,292m) was mainly attributable to the reclassification of current liabilities and provisions of the Catering and AirPlus operations (EUR +1,200m).
—The ratio of Adjusted net debt/Adjusted EBITDA was 1.7 (31 December 2022: 2.3) for the first half of 2023.
Lufthansa German Airlines including regional airlines, Germanwings and Eurowings Discover (LH), SWISS including Edelweiss (LX), Austrian Airlines (OS), Brussels Airlines (SN), Eurowings (EW) and Lufthansa Cargo (LCAG) as of 30 June 2023.

INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT Business segments
— Operating expenses increased by 19% to EUR 1,174m (previous year: EUR 985m), primarily due to the volumerelated increase in fuel expenses as well as higher fees and charges and staff costs due to the expansion of the flight programme; in addition, the result from equity investment of SunExpress was EUR -35m (previous year:
EUR -32m), in line with the seasonality of the business model.
— Eurowings significantly reduced its operating loss in the first half of 2023; Adjusted EBIT and EBIT amounted to EUR -34m (previous year: EUR -239m); excluding the result from the SunExpress investment, Adjusted EBIT
increased to EUR 1m (previous year: EUR -206m); this improvement is mainly attributable to the expansion of the flight programme, higher yields and an improved passenger load factor for the aircraft.

INTERIM MANAGEMENT REPORT Business segments

1) Figures include the results of equity investments of the associated company "Ameco", which was previously reported in the MRO business segment; previous year's figures have been adjusted accordingly.
— On 20 June 2023, the Lufthansa Group signed a contract with SEB Kort Bank AB of Stockholm (Sweden) for the sale of the AirPlus Group; the transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024, subject to the necessary preparations and external approvals, primarily from various financial supervisory authorities.
↗ Significant events, p. 5, Financial performance, p. 6.
The opportunities and risks for the Group described in detail in the Annual Report 2022 materialised or developed as follows:
that were planned due to the NATO "Air Defender" exercise were managed without any significant disruptions and with a stable operational performance.
successful in their demands, this may result in higher staff costs. Strikes can also lead to reputational damages and tangible economic impacts for the Lufthansa Group.
—Ryanair has appealed to the European Court of Justice against the decisions by the European Commission approving stabilisation measures for companies in the Lufthansa Group. Stabilisation measures of around EUR 7.6bn in total are affected for Deutsche Lufthansa AG, Austrian Airlines AG and Brussels Airlines SA/NV. The lawsuit relating to the state aid for Austrian Airlines has since been dismissed in the first instance, although Ryanair has launched an appeal with the European Court of Justice. In May 2023, the European Court of Justice upheld the action for annulment with regard to the stabilisation measure in the amount of EUR 6bn granted to Deutsche Lufthansa AG by the Economic Stabilisation Fund (ESF) of the Federal Republic of Germany and annulled the corresponding decision of the European Commission on the grounds of substantive errors of law. Until a final judgement is made or a new state aid decision is issued, uncertainty remains as to the legal consequences of the annulment of the decision to grant state aid. There is no immediate repayment risk as the stabilisation measures have already been completed and Deutsche Lufthansa AG has already repaid in full the silent participations from the ESF. Potential indirect consequences include the demand for claw-back interest for the period between the allocation and the repayment of the stabilisation funds, as well as the non-existence of the conditions attached to the granting of the aid. As a result, the non-existence of these conditions could also have an impact on the violation of the prohibition against dividend payments from equity investments as well as the prohibition of cross-subsidisation alleged by the European Commission. Deutsche Lufthansa AG will appeal to the
European Court of Justice against the ruling of the court of first instance. At the date of this report, it is not yet clear whether the European Commission and the Federal Republic of Germany will intervene in the appeal. Nor is it known how the further proceedings at the European Commission in its response to the judgement of the European Court of Justice will be structured. Deutsche Lufthansa AG expects the European Commission to initiate a formal examination procedure, as it has done in similar cases.
On the basis of the further improvement in business performance and the scenario on which its financial planning is based, the Executive Board does not consider that the continued existence of the Lufthansa Group is at risk.
— According to IHS Markit, global economic growth of 2.4% is expected for 2023; in the previous year, global economic output increased by 3.1%; for Europe, economic output is expected to grow by 0.7%.

there are further interest rate hikes; analysts expect the euro to appreciate slightly against the US dollar by the end of 2023.
—According to the EU Commission's forecast, the inflation rate for 2023 as a whole is expected to fall to 5.8% in Europe and to 6.8% in Germany.
— The agreed sale of the LSG Group to Aurelius is not expected to have any significant impact on the Group's financial development in 2023; the earnings of the LSG Group will be consolidated up to the completion of the transaction, which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2023.
—In view of booking cycles in the passenger business which remain shorter than they were prior to the crisis and the largely spot market-driven cargo business together with the uncertain macroeconomic and geopolitical environment, the Lufthansa Group's financial outlook is subject to a high level of forecast uncertainty; its operating and financial performance depends on factors including the further course of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine and its effects on fuel costs; uncertainty in relation to the macroeconomic outlook may potentially have a significant effect on customer demand and may lead to higher than expected cost increases.
↗ Opportunities and risk report, p. 20.
— Overall, the Lufthansa Group anticipates that available capacity for the Passenger Airlines in the 2023 financial year to be around 85% of its pre-crisis level in 2019; capacity will thus increase by around 20% on the previous year.
— Net capital expenditure by the Lufthansa Group in the 2023 financial year is expected to be between EUR 2.5bn and EUR 3bn.
— Including the forecast earnings improvement and other improvements in working capital management, Adjusted free cash flow for the Group is therefore projected to be significantly positive in the 2023 financial year, but below the previous year's figure.
Adjusted EBIT significantly below the previous year's level.
— In the MRO business segment, revenue is expected to rise significantly while an Adjusted EBIT figure at the same level as in the previous year is anticipated; this reflects the ongoing recovery of the MRO market together with inflation-related cost increases.
—The Lufthansa Group forecasts that the Catering business segment will achieve a further increase in revenue, especially in Asia in the course of the continuing market recovery; a significant rise in the Adjusted EBIT figure year-onyear is also expected; in the consolidated income statement, the segment result in 2023 is included in the line item "Profit/loss from discontinued operations" on account of the sale; it will thus no longer be included in the Adjusted EBIT figure at Group level.
Further details on the Group's financial outlook can be found in the ↗ Annual Report 2022 starting on p. 149.

¹⁾ The difference between the bank balance and cash-in-hand shown in the statement of financial position comes from fixedterm deposits of EUR 250m with terms of four to twelve months (previous year: EUR 6m).
The consolidated financial statements of Deutsche Lufthansa AG and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as applicable in the European Union (EU), taking account of interpretations by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC). This interim report as of 30 June 2023 has been prepared in condensed form in accordance with IAS 34.
In preparing the interim financial statements the standards and interpretations applicable as of 1 January 2023 have been applied. The interim financial statements as of 30 June 2023 have been prepared using the same accounting policies as those on which the preceding consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2022 were based. The standards and interpretations mandatory from 1 January 2023 onwards had no effect on the Group's net assets, financial and earnings position, and no restatements resulting from new standards were necessary.
No significant changes to the group of consolidated companies occurred in the reporting period.
In the first six months of 2023, the business activities of the companies of the Lufthansa Group continued to be shaped by a significant rise in the level of demand for flights. In the prior-year period, business activities were still impacted by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic and the related restrictions and quarantine regulations. Ticket sales prices rose significantly on the back of a rapid return in demand and the simultaneous shortage of capacity on the passenger market. Overall, this increased revenue considerably compared with the prior-year period.
The strong increase in the volume of business is having a positive impact on liquidity. A significantly positive operating cash flow was achieved in the reporting period due to the positive result and continued high inflows from ticket sales, although this figure is lower than that of the previous year, when there were very high inflows from ticket sales in connection with the re-expansion of business activities.
As of 30 June 2023, Deutsche Lufthansa AG had centrally available liquidity of EUR 8.0bn. Decentralised bank and cash balances came to a further EUR 0.7bn. Moreover, a revolving free credit line of EUR 2.1bn is available as of the reporting date. Altogether, the Lufthansa Group's available liquidity therefore comes to EUR 10.8bn.
In March 2023, the Executive Board of Deutsche Lufthansa AG resolved to sell its Catering segment to the private equity firm Aurelius Equity Opportunities SE & Co. KGaA via a carveout. The carve-out transaction covers the full range of traditional catering activities as well as the onboard retail and food commerce business. It also includes 131 LSG Sky Chefs catering facilities in the Americas (USA and Latin America), Emerging Markets and Asia-Pacific regions as well as all LSG Group brands. It also includes the onboard retail specialist Retail InMotion (RiM), which is headquartered in Europe, as well as SCIS Air Security Services in the United States. On the other hand, the business in Russia does not form part of this transaction. The relevant purchase agreement was signed on 4 April 2023. The European activities of LSG Sky Chefs had already been sold off to gategroup in 2019. The sale of its Catering division forms part of the Lufthansa Group's strategy of focusing more on its core airline business. The transaction is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2023, subject to obtaining all required external approvals and finalising the internal carve-out activities.
The Lufthansa Group signed a contract with SEB Kort Bank AB of Stockholm (Sweden) for the sale of Lufthansa AirPlus Servicekarten GmbH. The purchase price is approximately EUR 450m. The transaction includes Lufthansa AirPlus Servicekarten GmbH in Neu-Isenburg as well as all international subsidiaries and branches of AirPlus. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024, subject to the necessary preparations and required external approvals, primarily from various financial regulators.
Based on the overall economic trend and expected customer behaviour, the Lufthansa Group regularly updates its profit and liquidity planning to reflect the changing parameters for its forecast course of business. The principal factors of uncertainty at the moment are the worsening general economic outlook, especially in Germany, the development of producer and consumer prices, ongoing supply chain problems and the potential political repercussions of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine. There are also persistent sectorspecific operational risk factors due to staff capacity bottlenecks.
Taking into account the corporate planning and the resulting liquidity planning, the further potential funding measures and the uncertainties about the future course of business, the Company's Executive Board considers the Group's liquidity to be secure for the next 18 months. In the management's opinion, the uncertainties in connection with the public and political debate on climate protection are also not a threat to this forecast. The consolidated financial statements have therefore been prepared on a going concern basis.
Following the decision to sell the Catering and AirPlus activities, all assets and liabilities as of 31 March 2023 and 30 June 2023 were reclassified from their individual items of the statement of financial position to "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities in connection with assets held for sale" respectively, in accordance with IFRS 5. In the income statement, the individual items for the business activities of the Catering business segment were reclassified to the item "Profit/loss from discontinued operations" and the comparative figures for the previous year were adjusted accordingly.

1) Other operating revenue is allocated according to the original location of sale.
2) Values of the Catering business activities are presented under assets held for sale and discontinued operations.
3) Restated due to reclassification of Segment Catering to discontinued operations.
Due to accident damage not covered by insurance policies, the valuations of five decommissioned Airbus A380s which are held for sale were reduced by EUR 27m. This impairment is reported under other operating expenses.
Twelve newly purchased aircraft were capitalised in the reporting period. The Lufthansa Group provided one aircraft as collateral for new loans of EUR 53m taken out in the current financial year by way of aircraft financing models.
The deferred tax assets recognised on tax loss carry-forwards from prior years were again deemed to have a realisable value because the losses were caused by a temporary exogenous shock and the Company assumes that sufficient positive taxable profits will be available in the foreseeable future to set off against them. Tax loss carry-forwards are not subject in Germany to any restrictions regarding the period of time in which they can be used.
The above-mentioned reclassification of the assets and liabilities allocable to the Catering business segment and the AirPlus Group in the statement of financial position will result in significant changes in these items.
The breakdown of revenue for the discontinued Catering operation is as follows for the Group's regions:

The adjustment of the net assets of the discontinued operation in line with the expected cash inflows from the purchase agreement necessitated the recognition of an impairment of EUR 54m which is reported in the profit/loss from discontinued operations.
The result attributable to non-controlling interests includes a loss of EUR 2m from discontinued operations (previous year: result of EUR 0m).
In shareholders' equity, the other neutral reserves item includes accumulated expenses of EUR 158m and accumulated earnings of EUR 20m attributable to the discontinued Catering business segment and the assets and liabilities of the AirPlus Group held for sale. Expenses relate to differences from currency translation, while earnings are included in the market valuation reserves.
Assets with a carrying amount of EUR 2,615m were held for sale as of 30 June 2023. This item included six Airbus A380 aircraft sold for future delivery, with a book value of EUR 287m, which are all attributable to the Passenger Airlines segment. Assets of EUR 971m and liabilities of EUR 613m relate to the activities of the LSG Group which have been sold. All other assets (totalling EUR 1,357m) and liabilities of EUR 679m result from the agreed sale of the AirPlus Group, which is allocated to Additional Businesses and Group Functions.

The Group's business is mainly exposed to seasonal effects via the Passenger Airlines business segment. As such, revenue in the first and fourth quarters is generally lower, since people travel less, while higher revenue and operating profits are normally earned in the second and third quarters.

Due to the low probability of utilisation, provisions for other contingent liabilities with a total potential financial impact of EUR 69m (as at 31 December 2022: EUR 65m) were not recognised.
Due to actual understandings in the context of the tax audit regarding the tax valuation of repairable spare parts as well as intra-Group financing, the amount at risk for tax issues has been reduced. As at 30 June 2023, the tax risks for which no provisions were made amounted to approximately EUR 400m (as at 31 December 2022: EUR 450m).
At the end of June 2023, order commitments for investments in property, plant and equipment, including repairable spare parts, and intangible assets amounted to EUR 17.7bn. As at 31 December 2022, the order commitment was EUR 16.2bn. The change was mainly due to the order for 15 Airbus A350s and seven Boeing 787-9s. This was offset by advance and final payments as well as currency effects for current orders and purchase price reductions.
Since 30 June 2023, no events of particular importance have occurred that would be expected to have a significant influence on the net earnings, financial and assets position.
The following tables show financial assets and liabilities held at fair value by level in the fair value hierarchy. The levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: Financial instruments traded on active markets, the quoted prices for which are taken for measurement unchanged.
Level 2: Measurement is made by means of valuation methods with parameters derived directly or indirectly from observable market data.
Level 3: Measurement is made by means of valuation methods with parameters not based exclusively on observable market data.
As of 30 June 2023, the breakdown of financial assets and liabilities recognised at fair value by measurement category was as follows:

The fair values of interest rate derivatives correspond to their respective market values, which are measured using appropriate mathematical methods, such as discounting expected future cash flows. Discounting takes market standard interest rates and the residual term of the respective instruments into account. Forward currency transactions and swaps are individually discounted to the reporting date based on their respective futures rates and the appropriate interest rate curve. The market prices of currency options and the options used to hedge fuel prices are determined using acknowledged option pricing models.
Gas oil options have been traded since the second quarter of 2023, in addition to the existing crude oil options and crack forward hedges. This is an extension of the fuel price hedging strategy, which remains essentially unchanged. Both types of options together form the overall hedging level of the "kerosene" exposure and do not overlap with each other. These gas oil options currently account for approximately 13% of the existing hedging volume and their market value is approximately EUR 35m. Pro rata hedging through "gas oil" will be implemented as this is both physically and in terms of price closer to the "kerosene" exposure than crude oil, and the gas oil market is sufficiently liquid for hedging through options.
The fair values of debt instruments also correspond to their respective market values, which are measured using appropriate mathematical methods, such as discounting expected future cash flows. Discounting takes market standard interest rates and the residual term of the respective instruments into account.
The carrying amount for cash, trade receivables, other receivables, trade payables and other liabilities is assumed to be a realistic estimate of fair value.
The following table shows the carrying amounts and fair values of the individual classes of financial liabilities. For bonds, the fair values correspond to the stock market quotations. The fair values for the other financial liabilities were determined on the basis of the interest rates applicable at the balance sheet date for the corresponding residual terms/redemption structures using accessible market information (Bloomberg).

With a net profit/loss for the period from continuing operations of EUR 453m (previous year: EUR -286m) and from discontinued operations of EUR -37m (previous year: EUR -35m), basic earnings per share from continuing operations amounted to EUR -0.38 (previous year: EUR -0.24) and basic earnings per share from discontinued operations amounted to EUR - 0.03 (previous year: EUR -0.03). Diluted earnings per share are not disclosed for the reporting period as they would be higher than basic earnings per share.
Deutsche Lufthansa AG's issued capital totals EUR 3,060,443,248.64. It is divided into 1,195,485,644 registered shares with transfer restrictions, with each share representing EUR 2.56 of issued capital.
A resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting on 10 May 2022 authorised the Executive Board until 9 May 2025, subject to approval by the Supervisory Board, to increase the Company's share capital by up to EUR 1,000,000,000 by issuing new registered shares on one or more occasions for payment in cash or in kind (Authorised Capital A). In certain cases, shareholders' subscription rights can be excluded with the approval of the Supervisory Board.
A resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting on 9 May 2023 authorised the Executive Board until 8 May 2028, subject to approval by the Supervisory Board, to increase the share capital by EUR 100,000,000 by issuing new registered shares to employees (Authorised Capital B) for payment in cash. Existing shareholders' subscription rights are excluded.
The Executive Board is authorised, in the event of the fulfilment of the requirements stipulated in Section 4 Paragraph 3 of the German Aviation Compliance Documentation Act (LuftNaSiG) and with the consent of the Supervisory Board, to increase the share capital by up to 10% by issuing new shares in return for payment in cash and without subscription rights for existing shareholders. The issue price for the new shares must be determined subject to the agreement of the Supervisory Board and may not be significantly lower than the market price. The authorisation may only be made use of insofar as this is necessary in order to achieve the non-applicability of the conditions stipulated in Section 4 Paragraph 3 LuftNaSiG.
Under the conditions of Section 5 Paragraph 2 LuftNaSiG, the Executive Board is authorised, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to require shareholders to sell some or all of their shares insofar as this is necessary for compliance with the requirements for the maintenance of air traffic rights, and in the sequence prescribed in Section 5 Paragraph 3 LuftNaSiG, and to provide the Company with proof of this sale without delay, subject to an appropriate time limit and under notice of the legal consequence of non-compliance of the possible loss of their shares in accordance with Section 5 Paragraph 7 LuftNaSiG.
A resolution of the Annual General Meeting on 5 May 2020 increased the Company's contingent capital by up to EUR 122,417,728. The contingent capital increase serves to provide shares to the holders or creditors of conversion and/or option rights from convertible bonds that may be issued by the Company or its Group companies until 4 May 2025. In certain cases, shareholders' subscription rights can be excluded with the approval of the Supervisory Board.
On 10 May 2022, the Annual General Meeting increased the Company's contingent capital by up to EUR 306,044,326.40. The contingent capital increase serves to provide shares to the holders or creditors of conversion and/or option rights from convertible bonds that may be issued by the Company or its Group companies until 9 May 2027. In certain cases, shareholders' subscription rights can be excluded with the approval of the Supervisory Board.
A resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting held on 9 May 2023 authorised the Executive Board pursuant to Section 71 Paragraph 1 No. 8 of the German Stock Corporation Act (AktG) to purchase treasury shares until 8 May 2028. The acquisition is limited to 10% of current share capital and can be purchased on the stock exchange or by a public purchase offer to all shareholders. The authorisation states that the Executive Board can use the shares in particular for the purposes defined in the resolution passed at the Annual General Meeting. According to the resolution of the Annual General Meeting held on 9 May 2023, the Executive Board is also authorised to purchase treasury shares by means of derivatives and to conclude corresponding derivative transactions.
Aircraft Maintenance and Engineering Corporation (AMECO), which was previously presented in the MRO segment, has formed part of the Additional Businesses and Group Functions in the Company's internal reporting since the start of the current financial year. The figures for the previous year have been adjusted accordingly.
The Catering segment will continue to presented as an operating business activity. In the segment reporting, the earnings for the discontinued operation in the Catering segment will be reclassified in the reconciliation with net profit/loss for the period. In addition, the effects from the elimination of depreciation and amortisation on property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are not presented in the segment but in the reconciliation to the net profit/loss for the period.

2) Restated due to reclassification of Segment Catering to discontinued operations.
As stated in ↗ Note 50 to the 2022 consolidated financial statements (Annual Report 2022, p. 256ff.), the segments in the Lufthansa Group render numerous services to related parties within the scope of their ordinary business activities and also receive services from them. These extensive supply and service relationships take place unchanged on the basis of market prices. There were no significant changes as of the reporting date. The contractual relationships with the group of related parties described in the ↗ Remuneration Report 2022 (Annual Report 2022, p. 280ff.) and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements 2022 in ↗ Note 51 (Annual Report 2022, p. 259) also still exist unchanged, but are not of material significance for the Group.
Given the uncertainties surrounding the introduction of global minimum taxation (Pillar Two), the IASB published amendments to IAS 12 on 23 May 2023 that provide a mandatory exception for accounting for deferred taxes from the implementation of Pillar Two rules. The Lufthansa Group will apply this exemption after endorsement by the EU. The related disclosure requirements are to be satisfied for the first time in annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023. The disclosures are not yet mandatory in interim reports ending in 2023.
Amendments of the other accounting standards which have been approved by the IASB as of the date of publication of this report and are applicable for financial years beginning after 1 January 2023 have no effect on the presentation of the net assets, financial and earnings position. Further information on the amendments resolved as of the preparation date of the interim financial statements is provided in ↗ Note 3 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements 2022 (Annual Report 2022, p. 170ff.)
We declare that to the best of our knowledge and according to the applicable accounting standards for interim reporting, the consolidated interim financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Group, and the interim management report of the Group includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Group, together with a description of the principal opportunities and risks associated with the expected development of the Group for the remaining months of the financial year.

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Deutsche Lufthansa Aktiengesellschaft, Cologne, - which comprise the consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of financial position, consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated cash flow statement and selected explanatory notes – and the interim group management report for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2023, which are part of the half-year financial report pursuant to Sec. 115 WpHG ("Wertpapierhandels¬gesetz": German Securities Trading Act). The executive directors are responsible for the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRSs on 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. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the interim group management report based on our review.
We conducted our review of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and of the interim group management report in compliance with German Generally Accepted Standards for the Review of Financial Statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW - Institute of Public Auditors in Germany) and in supplementary compliance with the International Standard on Review Engagements "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" (ISRE 2410). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain a certain level of assurance in our critical appraisal to preclude that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRSs on interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU and that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to making inquiries of the Company's employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance obtainable from an audit of financial statements. Since, in
accordance with our engagement, we have not performed an audit of financial statements, we cannot issue an auditor's report.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IFRSs applicable on interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU or that the interim group management report is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the provisions of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports.

Information published in the 2nd Interim Report 2023, with regard to the future development of the Lufthansa Group and its subsidiaries consists purely of forecasts and assessments and not of definitive facts. Its purpose is exclusively informational, and can be identified by the use of such cautionary terms as "believe", "expect", "forecast", "intend", "project", "plan", "estimate", "anticipate", "can", "could", "should" or "endeavour". These forward-looking statements are based on discernible information, facts and expectations available at the time that the statements were made. They are therefore subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and factors, including, but not limited to, those described in disclosures, in particular in the Opportunities and risk report in the Annual Report. Should one or more of these risks occur, or should the underlying expectations or assumptions fail to materialise, this could have a significant effect (either positive or negative) on the actual results.
It is possible that the Group's actual results and development may differ materially from the results forecast in the forward-looking statements. Lufthansa does not assume any obligation, nor does it intend, to adapt forward-looking statements to accommodate events or developments that may occur at some later date. Accordingly, it neither expressly nor conclusively accepts liability, nor gives any guarantee, for the actuality, accuracy and completeness of this data and information.
Unless stated otherwise, all change figures refer to the corresponding period from the previous year. Due to rounding, some of the figures may not add up precisely to the stated totals, and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
