Disclaimer

The explanations in this presentation are forward-looking statements that are based on the company management's current expectations, assumptions and assessments for future developments. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainty that are largely beyond the company's control.

There is considerable uncertainty for the remainder of 2022, especially as a result of the Russia-Ukraine war, as it is currently not possible to foresee the extent of the potential negative direct and indirect impact on the company, particularly in terms of global procurement and sales activities. Uncertainties that lie beyond the company's control also include changes in the overall economic situation, including impacts from the further course of the coronavirus pandemic, within the intralogistics sector, in materials supply, the availability and price development of energy and raw materials, demand in important markets, developments in competition and regulatory frameworks and regulations, exchange and interest rates and the outcome of pending or future legal proceedings.

Should these or other uncertainties or unknown factors apply or the assumptions on which these statements are based proved false, actual results may deviate significantly from the results stated or implied. No responsibility is therefore taken for forward-looking statements. Without prejudice to existing capital market obligations, there is no intention nor do we accept any obligation to update forward-looking statements.
