Half-Year Financial Report 2023

PharmaSGP′s success is based on its highly agile and asset-light business model where we focus on consumer-centric product innovation and commercialization.
With our asset-light and scalable pan-European OTC growth platform we are able to easily integrate and grow brands, penetrate new regions and react to new opportunities faster than the competition. Our approach works equally well for self-developed as well as acquired products.
To implement this strategy, we have built internal capabilities with the highest quality and execution standard.
Operations: Our highly 昀氀 exible and established operational setup allows for lowest platform migration costs at highest operational e昀케 ciency.
Regulatory a昀昀 airs: Our deep regulatory expertise for all relevant European OTC markets and categories enables us to integrate or launch products in Europe in the shortest possible timeframe across our markets.

Commercialization: Our unique D2C marketing approach with a wide target group reach creates relevant market distribution without the need of a local sales force or local subsidiary. We have established a "plug-and-play" platform to easily launch and integrate new products across markets and geographies – based on our acquisition approach or self-developed.
International reach: Our internal teams are experts in fast international expansion enabled by established logistics partnerships in multiple countries.
Functions with high asset investment requirements and rather rigid operational structures have been outsourced to longstanding partners who enjoy the highest level of trust from us.
Production: We have established a highly diversi昀椀 ed supplier network with more than 70 di昀昀 erent suppliers meeting highest quality standards.
Logistics & Distribution: Longstanding and pharma industry specialized partners perform in a highly 昀氀 exible way the warehousing and distribution of our products in all our European markets.

Foreword by the Management Board
Dear Shareholders Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
we are pleased to report that, following the record 昀椀gures for the 昀椀nancial year 2022, we were able to seamlessly continue our dynamic corporate development in the 昀椀rst half of 2023. In the 昀椀rst quarter of 2023, PharmaSGP generated revenues of € 24.0 million, while the second quarter saw a further increase in revenues to € 25.7 million. This results in year-onyear revenue growth of 18.4 % for the 昀椀rst six months of 2023. The pro昀椀tability development for the 昀椀rst half of 2023 shows an increase in adjusted EBITDA of 27.0 %. Adjusted EBITDA increased to € 15.3 million, so that with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 30.9 % we were able to exceed the prior year 昀椀gure of 28.8 %.
On the one hand, the business 昀椀gures for the 昀椀rst half of 2023 are further proof of the success of our scalable, pan-European growth platform, with which we create organic as well as inorganic added value. It enables us to effectively integrate and expand brands, enter new geographies and respond to new opportunities faster than our competitors. Secondly, in the 昀椀rst six months of 2023 we bene昀椀ted noticeably from more intensive marketing activities, which we carried out across large parts of our product portfolio. This enabled us to reach an even broader audience and intensify existing customer relationships even further. We have thus exploited the potential of our product portfolio even more strongly across all categories and markets.
These successes once again demonstrate the great potential that we can leverage with our business model, both with existing brands and with newly acquired brands. Accordingly, we are convinced that we will continue this positive trend in the further course of the year and achieve the targets we have set ourselves for the full year 2023.
We would especially like to thank our employees, who work tirelessly to make PharmaSGP the leading company in Europe with the broadest portfolio of leading OTC products and to help as many patients as possible. We would also like to thank our shareholders, business partners and customers for their trust and loyalty. We would be delighted if you would continue to stand by our side and accompany us on our way to an even more successful future.

Interim Group Management Report for the Period 1 January to 30 June 2023
1. Principles of the Group
1.1 Business Model
PharmaSGP Holding SE (together with its subsidiaries PharmaSGP GmbH, Remitan GmbH, Restaxil GmbH, Fokusan Health GmbH and PharmaSGP Vitalmed GmbH: "PharmaSGP" or the "Group") is a consumer health company with a diversi昀椀ed portfolio of overthe-counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals and other healthcare products that are marketed with the focus on the pharmacy distribution channel.
Over the past eleven years, PharmaSGP has created a platform to successfully integrate and grow brands in all its European markets. Five key factors ensure the ongoing success:
- A proven, scalable asset-light business model combined with established processes
- A highly diversi昀椀ed European supply chain
- Broad and long-standing regulatory expertise
- A strong and specialized Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) marketing strategy
- A wide target group media reach of more than 165 million contacts per month
In order to focus on its success drivers, PharmaSGP has deliberately established a scalable, asset-light business model which can also be transferred quickly and e昀케ciently to new target markets. The entire manufacturing process is handled by a diversi昀椀ed network of third-party manufacturers in Europe. In Germany and in foreign markets, individual local logistics providers supply wholesalers and to a lesser extent pharmacies directly. Combined with many years of experience of approval processes for new OTC pharmaceuticals in Germany and abroad, as well as regulatory requirements for other healthcare products, PharmaSGP's platform allows it to quickly and e昀케ciently establish and grow both new
and existing brands and to establish its business model in other countries with little investment.
PharmaSGP's OTC products cover highly relevant and chronic indications marketed directly to their target group, especially senior citizens, under wellknown pharmaceutical brands via a specialized D2C marketing strategy with a wide target group media reach and e昀케cient commercial media conditions. In a structurally growing market, it has thereby been able to establish market-leading positions in many important areas, such as rheumatic and neuralgic pain, sleep disorders or men's and women's health. The product portfolio is expanded through inhouse developments as well as acquired marketing approvals, brands and product portfolios.
PharmaSGP's core market is Germany, which accounted for 75 % of total revenues in the 昀椀rst half year of 2023. As the European OTC market is also expected to grow in the future due to fundamental trends, the Group also continues its drive towards greater internationalization of its brand portfolio. Since the launch of the 昀椀rst product from the current product portfolio in 2012, PharmaSGP has successfully transferred its business model to Austria, Italy, Belgium, France and Spain. Since September 2021, the Group has expanded its operations to Switzerland and Eastern European EU countries.
1.2 Product Portfolio
During the 昀椀rst half year of 2023, the product portfolio currently marketed by PharmaSGP included approximately 50 OTC pharmaceuticals and other healthcare products. The Group's core brands cover chronic indications, especially pain and sleep disorders, as well as other age-related ailments. The OTC drugs are mostly based on natural active pharmaceutical ingredients with documented e昀케cacy and few known side e昀昀ects.
In Germany, PharmaSGP is the market leader for chemical-free pain remedies, based on revenues of chemical-free, systemic OTC drugs for nerve and rheumatic pain. The latter are sold under the wellknown brand families Restaxil® (nerve pain) and RubaXX® (rheumatic and wear-related pain). PharmaSGP has also established leading brands in their categories for vertigo (TAUMEA®) and sexual weakness (DESEO®, Neradin®).
The development of existing brand families and the expansion of the brand portfolio through inhouse developments and acquired marketing authorizations, brands and product portfolios are essential components of the growth strategy. With the acquisition of the established OTC brands Baldriparan®, Formigran®, Spalt® and Kamol® in August 2021, PharmaSGP expanded its portfolio through further market leaders in their category. In Germany, for example, Baldriparan® is the No. 1 herbal sleep aid in pharmacies, and Formigran® is the leading OTC pharmaceutical against migraine.
1.3 Goals and Strategy
PharmaSGP's goal is to establish a strong portfolio of leading OTC brands in Europe. To achieve this, it has de昀椀ned a growth strategy focused on the use of its platform in Europe.
In addition to further organic growth and expansion of its existing portfolio, PharmaSGP is focusing also on the acquisition and integration of established brands as part of the growth strategy. Value enhancement potential can be realized by
- increasing revenues through the implementation of the D2C marketing strategy and exploiting the wide target group media reach, and
- increasing pro昀椀tability through margin optimizations and improvement of the cost structure based on the asset-light business model, among other things.
The Group looks for well-known and established brands with an existing customer base and untapped commercial potential, as well as brands that are under-invested in their current environment which can be further expanded.
The starting point for realizing PharmaSGP's growth potential is the ongoing analysis of its target markets. A fast product launch, a 昀氀exible marketing approach and a clear end-consumer focus de昀椀ne the path to sustained market success for PharmaSGP. In addition, further internationalization is a key element of the growth strategy.
1.4 Research and Development
A cost-e昀케cient product development process and a fast integration process for introducing established products to the PharmaSGP platform are key drivers of PharmaSGP's growth. Developing and integrating new products are fundamental to PharmaSGP. Key activities include identifying potentially attractive indications and active pharmaceutical ingredients, developing and perfecting formulations and optimizing and updating existing or acquired marketing authorizations.
PharmaSGP cooperates with specialized contract manufacturers and certi昀椀ed laboratories to create formulation samples. Services such as test productions, analytics or shelf-life studies are bought in as needed with a view to consciously making the development process resource-e昀케cient and cost-ef-昀椀cient. This process keeps PharmaSGP's development costs at a low level and accelerates market access. Acquired authorizations with regards to the speci昀椀cation and manufacturing process are adapted to the relevant requirements of PharmaSGP and to the current catalogue of requirements of regulating authorities.
The Group draws on many years of experience with regard to approval processes for new OTC pharmaceuticals in Germany and abroad. As of 30 June 2023, a total of 86 marketed and non-marketed marketing authorizations (existing or 昀椀led) have been granted in Germany and abroad.
1.5 Marketing and Sales
Through its specialized D2C marketing strategy, PharmaSGP has established leading consumer brands in important indication areas, such as rheumatic and neuralgic pain or sexual weakness. It focuses its marketing on a direct-to-consumer approach through print media and TV advertising as well as online marketing. By advertising in wide reaching newspapers and magazines and selected TV channels, PharmaSGP currently has an average target group media reach of more than 165 million contacts per month in its target markets.
Besides reliable product quality, the Group's marketing activities create consumer loyalty to PharmaSGP's brands. This is re昀氀ected in repeat purchases and in numerous positive testimonials from customers and patients. The fact that its products are available in up to 99 % of German pharmacies also demonstrates PharmaSGP's wide reach.
1.6 Group Strucutre
The wholly-owned subsidiaries PharmaSGP GmbH, Remitan GmbH, Restaxil GmbH, Fokusan Health GmbH (previously PharmaSGP Vertriebs GmbH) and – since May 2023 – the newly founded PharmaSGP Vitalmed GmbH operate under the umbrella of PharmaSGP Holding SE.
PharmaSGP GmbH and Restaxil GmbH distribute the majority of OTC products in the Health Brands category, while Remitan GmbH mainly sells products in the Beauty Brands category.
1.7 Locations and Employees
The registered o昀케ce of the PharmaSGP companies is in Gräfel昀椀ng, Bavaria, Germany. As of 30 June 2023, the Group had a total of 85 employees (fulltime equivalents) at this location, thereof 24 employed by SGP SE (31 December 2022: 79 employees, thereof 21 employed by SGP SE).
All relevant departments, including Marketing and Sales, Product Development, Quality Management & Regulatory Affairs, Operations, Controlling & Finance and other supporting functions are located at the Company's o昀케ces in Gräfel昀椀ng. The production of OTC drugs and healthcare products generally takes place in Germany or in European countries, in cooperation with selected and certi昀椀ed contract manufacturers. To distribute its products, PharmaSGP cooperates with logistics and distribution partners in the respective countries on a longterm basis.
1.8 Management System and Performance Indicators
The business planning and management of the Group is based on targets set by the Management Board. By means of budget planning, the targets are translated into measurable 昀椀nancial targets.
The operating business is managed based on selected 昀椀nancial ratios. The 昀椀nancial performance indicators are continuously monitored and presented to the Management Board in monthly reports. In particular, planned 昀椀gures are compared with the results of the current business development (comparison of planned and actual 昀椀gures). Appropriate measures are de昀椀ned and implemented if there are deviations from the original targets.
The key performance indicators for the Management Board are revenues and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (adjusted EBITDA) in order to measure the Company's success.
2. Economic Report
2.1 General Economic Environment and Industry-Specific Conditions
2.1.1 General Economic Environment
According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the global economic recovery from the consequences of the Covid-19-pandemic and Russia's attack on Ukraine was slowed down in the 昀椀rst half of 2023. At the same time, key inhibiting factors from 2022 continue to weigh on the global economy. For example, in昀氀ation rates remain high despite a decline in most countries. In addition, the central banks' tight monetary policy has significantly increased financing costs, which in turn is holding back economic activities worldwide. Accordingly, the IMF forecasts a decline in global growth from 3.5 % in 2022 to 3.0 % in 2023.1
The IMF also sees challenging economic conditions in the Eurozone, with growth of 0.9 % expected for 2023 as a whole. The forecast 昀椀gure is thus lower than the growth of 3.5 % in the previous year. In the view of the economists, the German economy will contract by 0.3 % this year, following growth of 1.8 % in 2022. According to the IMF, this development is due in particular to weak industrial production. In contrast, moderate growth is expected for other key EU markets in 2023: France +0.8 %, Italy +1.1 % and Spain +2.5 %.2
2.1.2 Industry-Specific Conditions
Global drivers such as a growing world population or increasing life expectancy ensure comparatively non-cyclical growth for companies in the pharmaceutical and healthcare market worldwide. Pharmaceutical companies are also less a昀昀ected by the in昀氀ation crisis compared to the rest of the industry as consumers prefer not to save on their health. This is also re昀氀ected in the positive outlook for the OTC market. From 2023 to 2027, annual growth of 4.0 % is expected in Germany and 4.3 % in Europe.3,4
According to the market research company IQVIA, the pharmacy market in Germany recorded moderate year-on-year growth in both sales (+2.5 %) and unit sales (+0.2 %) in the 昀椀rst half of 2023. Following clearly positive 昀椀gures at the beginning of the year, sales growth has developed negatively since March. In terms of sales, a positive growth rate was achieved in every other month with the exception of April. In the OTC sector of pharmacies in Germany, which is the key market to PharmaSGP, pharmaceutical sales increased slightly by 2.3 % compared to the prior year period, while the number of packs sold declined moderately by 2.3 % compared to the prior year 昀椀gure.5
2.2 Course of Business for PharmaSGP
In the 昀椀rst half of 2023, PharmaSGP achieved further milestones on its way to the next successful 昀椀nancial year. Compared to the prior year period, revenues have increased by 18.4 %, and also pro昀椀tability has developed very positively. PharmaSGP is thus showing itself to be signi昀椀cantly stronger than the market trend, while at the same time being able to lift the performance of some of its product brands well above the market trend.
The redemption of the 昀椀rst tranches of the syndicate 昀椀nancing was successfully 昀椀nalized. In the rising interest rate environment, the bene昀椀ts of the interest rate hedges concluded in the third quarter of 2022 are becoming apparent, as a result of which the Group was able to generate cash in昀氀ows of € 271 thousand in the 昀椀rst half of 2023.
On 28 June 2023, the Annual General Meeting resolved on a distribution of € 0.49 per share entitled to dividends. The total distribution amounts to € 5,875 thousand and led to a decrease in equity by this amount. However, this decrease could be compensated by the pro昀椀t of the period, so that the equity position overall as increased by € 776 thousand since the last balance sheet date.

2.3 Earnings, Assets and Financial Position of PharmaSGP
2.3.1 Earnings Position
Revenue development: Signi昀椀 cant plus in revenues


In the 昀椀 rst half year of 2023, PharmaSGP's revenues have increased by 18.4 % and achieved € 49,709 thousand (H1 2022: € 41,994 thousand). Growth was achieved in almost all indication areas of the Health Brands category and also in the Beauty Brand category.
Revenues by region: Internationalization, Germany remains key market

With a share of 75 % of the Group's revenue, Germany remains the key market by volume. The revenue share of Italy amounts to 11 %, the revenue share of Austria amounts to 10 %.
Revenues by category: Health Brands major growth contributor

Almost all indication areas contribute to the growth. Besides the indications rheumatic and neuralgic pain (covered by the product brands Restaxil® and RubaXX®), the indication area men and women's health saw a strong increase in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023, PharmaSGP covers this area through its product brands DESEO® and Neradin®.

Health Brands have increased by 18.9 % in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023, in the DACH region by 21.5 %


Also Beauty Brands have increased in the DACH region. Growth was mainly driven by the skin care product Deruba®.
Expenses for raw materials, consumables and 昀椀 nished goods have slightly decreased in the half year period 2023 compared to the prior year and amount to € 4,650 thousand (H1 2022: € 4,705 thousand). The COGS quota thus has improved from 11.2 % in the half year period 2022 to 9.4 % in the current reporting period. This is mainly driven by the strong growth high-margin products in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023.
Personnel expenses amount to € 3,592 thousand in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023 (H1 2022: € 2,817 thousand). The increase of 27.5 % results from the planned increase in the number of employees.
Marketing expenses amount to € 22,748 thousand in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023 (H1 2022: € 19,555 thousand). The increase of 16.3 % is lower than the increase in revenues, leading to a further increase of the marketing quota to now 45.8 % (H1 2022: 46.6 %). The reason for this improvement is due to a further improvement in the efficient use of marketing expenses.
Other operating expenses in the amount of € 3,364 thousand are almost unchanged to the prior year (H1 2022: € 3,453 thousand). Within this position, logistics expenses have increased along with the revenue increase as expected. This increase however, was altered by cost reductions in legal and consulting fees, expenses for quality assurance and third-party expenses; therefore, other operating expenses could be overall decreased by 2.6 % despite the increase in revenues.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA): further increase in pro昀椀 tability
Due to the increase in revenues, the increased of high-margin products, the e昀케 cient marketing spendings and the cost reduction in other operating expenses, EBITDA in relation to revenues could be increased by 31.0 %
| in € thousand | H1 2023 | H1 2022 |
|---|---|---|
| Adjusted EBITDA | 15,338 | 12,076 |
| Adjusted EBITDA margin | 30.9 % | 28.8 % |
| One-time costs | -90 | 502 |
| Unadjusted EBITDA | 15,428 | 11,574 |
| Unadjusted EBITDA margin | 31.0 % | 27.6 % |
The key performance indicator to PharmaSGP is EBITDA adjusted by one-time costs and special e昀昀 ects. These one-time costs (or one-time income) and special e昀昀 ects in the reporting period mainly relate to income in connection with long-term compensation of the Management Board. Due to adjustments to the provision for long-term compensation of the Management Board, an income position was adjusted in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023. In the prior year, legal and consulting fees in connection with acquisitions were incurred in addition to expenses for the long-term Management Board compensation; which were also adjusted.
Finance income in the amount of € 769 thousand mainly stems from short-term time deposits, from gains of low-risk money market funds and from the settlement of derivatives. Finance expenses of € 2,348 thousand (H1 2022: € 799 thousand) were mainly incurred from interest and other expenses in relation to the syndicate 昀椀 nancing.
Income taxes amount to € 2,319 thousand in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023 (H1 2022: € 1,543 thousand). The pro昀椀 t for the period amounts to € 6,862 thousand in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023 (H1 2022: € 4,665 thousand).
2.3.2 Asset Position



-
Non-current assets have further decreased since the last balance sheet date 31 December 2022 and amount to € 73,039 thousand as of 30 June 2023. The decrease was mainly driven by regular amortization and deprecation of intangible assets and right-of-use assets.
Cash and cash equivalents have increased to € 36,572 thousand due to high cash 昀氀 ows from operating activities and despite the scheduled redemption of the syndicate 昀椀 nancing. The dividend payment resolved by the Annual Meeting on 28 June 2023 of € 5,875 thousand was paid out in July 2023.
The increase in other current assets to € 23,183 as of 30 June 2023 results from increased inventory stocks and from higher trade and other receivables in connection with the revenue growth.


-
The increase in shareholders' equity results from the pro昀椀 t for the period of € 6,862 thousand, the dividend of € 5,875 thousand as resolved by the Annual General Meeting on 28 June 2023, the change in reserves for cash 昀氀 ow hedges of € 72 thousand and the repurchase of treasury shares of € 283 thousand, that are deducted from equity. Reserves from cash flow hedges were presented under the position "Accumulated other comprehensive income" as of 31 December 2022; as of 30 June 2023 they are subsumed as other reserves together with treasury shares.
The Management Board of PharmaSGP Holding SE has decided on 3 January 2023, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, utilizing the authorization of the General Meeting of 28 May 2020, to buy-back up to a maximum of 60,000 shares of the Company at a total maximum aggregate purchase price without ancillary costs of up to € 1.5 million. The buyback program started on 4 January 2023 and was terminated in the 昀椀 rst half of 2023. Overall, 9,787 shares were purchased at an amount of € 283 thousand.
Due to the scheduled redemptions for 昀椀 nancial and lease liabilities, non-current liabilities have decreased to € 71,212 thousand as of 30 June 2023.
Current liabilities have increased to € 29,709 thousand. The major changes result from liabilities to shareholders of € 5,875 thousand from unpaid dividends and an increase in trade payables in connection with the revenue increase.

In the half year period 2023, PharmaSGP generated € 10,382 thousand from its operating activities. Due to higher income tax prepayments and increased working capital, the cash 昀氀 ow from operating activities is 13.7 % below the prior year.
As in the prior year, investing cash 昀氀 ows were used for PharmaSGP's marketing authorizations.
For 昀椀 nancing activities, € 6,039 thousand were paid in the 昀椀 rst half year of 2023, mainly for the scheduled redemption of the syndicate 昀椀 nancing and corresponding interest payments. On 28 June 2023, the Annual General Meeting decided to distribute dividends of € 5,875 thousand, that were paid out since 3 July 2023. Had the payment been processed in the half year period of 2023, cash 昀氀 ows used in 昀椀 nancing activities would have been € 5,875 thousand higher, and the amount of cash and cash equivalents as of 30 June 2023 would have been € 5,875 thousand lower.
2.4 Overall Statement and Outlook
Overall, PharmaSGP looks back on a successful 昀椀rst half of 2023, in which both revenues and pro昀椀tability increased signi昀椀cantly. In terms of 昀椀nancing activities, the share buyback program was successfully comple ted and the syndicated financing was repaid as planned. Additionally, PharmaSGP was able to gene rate its 昀椀rst 昀椀nance income for a long time, mainly from interest and price gains as well as from the sett lement of derivatives.
Based on the developments in the 昀椀rst half of 2023 and the stable outlook for the OTC market, the Management Board is convinced that the targets set for the full year 2023 will be achieved. The Manage ment Board now expects revenues in a range bet ween € 95 million and € 100 million. With regard to adjusted EBITDA, the Management Board still expects a 昀椀gure of between € 30 million and € 34 million. This implies an adjusted EBITDA margin relative to revenu es of 31.6 % to 34.0 %. Previously, the Management Board had assumed revenues in a range between € 91 million and € 96 million.
3. Opportunities and Risk Report
Opportunities and risks associated with the future development of PharmaSGP and risks from 昀椀nancial instruments are outlined in the Annual Report 2022 (see "Combined Management Report for the Financi al Year 2022", page 35-42 and page 42-43). In the cur rent reporting period, the opportunities and risk assessment remains unchanged.
4. Subsequent Events
Since 3 July 2023, the dividend as resolved by the Annual General Meeting on 28 June 2023 in the amount of € 0.49 per dividend-bearing share was dis tributed to the shareholders. The total amount paid out after the balance sheet date amounts to € 5,875 thousand.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements as of 30 June 2023
1. Basis of preparation
1.1 Background and general information
PharmaSGP Holding SE (hereafter also referred to as the "Company" or "SGP SE") with its registered o昀케ce at Lochhamer Schlag 1, 82166 Gräfel昀椀ng, Germany, is a European Company (Societas Europaea, "SE") with its primary activities in the healthcare business in Germany and other European countries. The Company is registered in the commercial register of the Munich Local Court under HRB 255684.
Since May 2020, the Company has been the holding company of a group of companies operating in the healthcare industry. Its operating subsidiaries are PharmaSGP GmbH, Remitan GmbH, Restaxil GmbH, Fokusan Health GmbH and PharmaSGP Vitalmed GmbH (hereafter including SGP SE also referred to as "PharmaSGP" or the "Group").
The Group is a consumer health company with a diverse portfolio of non-prescription pharmaceuticals (over the counter; "OTC") and other healthcare products that are marketed with the focus on the pharmacy distribution channel. Its core brands cover chronic indications, including pain and other age-related ailments. The Group's OTC products are mostly based on natural active pharmaceutical ingredients ("APIs").
SGP SE's shares are listed on the Regulated Market and the sub-segment Prime Standard of the Regulated Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under German Securities Code (WKN) A2P4LJ, International Securities Identi昀椀cation Number (ISIN) DE000A2P4LJ5 and ticker symbol PSG. First day of trading was on 19 June 2020.
1.2 Consolidated financial statements and basis of presentation
Scope of consolidation
SGP SE is the holding company of the Group. The Group's business is conducted by PharmaSGP GmbH, Restaxil GmbH, Remitan GmbH, Fokusan Health GmbH and PharmaSGP Vitalmed GmbH.
On 17 May 2023, the previous PharmaSGP Vertriebs GmbH was renamed into Fokusan Health GmbH by amending the articles of association. PharmaSGP Vitalmed GmbH was newly founded in the second quarter of 2023, the registration in the commercial register was 昀椀nalized on 27 June 2023.
Basis of presentation
The condensed interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements as of 30 June 2023, were prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted in the European Union (EU). These interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements conform with the regulation IAS 34 "Interim 昀椀nancial reporting".
The condensed interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements as of 30 June 2023 were neither audited nor reviewed by the Group's auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers GmbH Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, Frankfurt am Main.
The condensed interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual 昀椀nancial statements and should therefore be read in conjunction with the consolidated 昀椀nancial statements for the year ended on 31 December 2022.
Except for new or amended 昀椀nancial standards and interpretations issued by the IASB or new business transactions, the same accounting and measurement principles were generally applied as in the consolidated 昀椀nancial statements for the 昀椀nancial year ended on 31 December 2022.
E昀昀ects of new or amended standards and interpretations issued by the IASB
In the condensed interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements as of 30 June 2023, the following standards or amendments to standards were adopted:
- IFRS 17 Insurance contracts
- Amendments to IAS 1: Disclosure of accounting policies
- Amendments to IAS 8: De昀椀nition of accounting estimates
- Amendments to IAS 12: Deferred Taxes related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
- Amendments to IFRS 17: Initial Application of IFRS 17 and IFRS 9 – Comparative Information
The adoption had no impact on the net assets, 昀椀nancial position and results of operations of the Group.
Treasury shares
Treasury shares were acquired for the 昀椀rst time in the 昀椀nancial year 2023. Treasury shares are recognized at cost and deducted from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in pro昀椀t or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of treasury shares. Any di昀昀erence between the carrying amount and the consideration, if reissued, is recognized in the share premium.
Signi昀椀cant accounting judgments and estimates
Judgments, estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to estimates are recognized prospectively.
The Group makes judgments, estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by de昀椀nition, rarely equal the related actual results. In particular, estimates and assumptions in relation to warranty provisions, legal disputes, refund liabilities, intangible assets and lease liabilities could result in outcomes requiring a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the future 昀椀nancial years.
Accounting judgments and estimates made in the consolidated 昀椀nancial statements as of 31 December 2022 in relation to these positions have not signi昀椀cantly changed for the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated 昀椀nancial statements as of 30 June 2023.
2. Segement information
General information
The Group has one operating segment including all products of the Group companies. This assessment is based on information reported to the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) for the purpose of assessing segmental performance and resource allocation. The Management Board is the CODM and monitors the entity's performance. Performance is measured using revenues and for one-time e昀昀ects adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("adjusted EBITDA") as key performance indicators to assess the success of the Group's business. Segment assets are presented in the consolidated statements of 昀椀nancial position. The segment pro昀椀t is measured through the adjusted EBITDA, which is a performance indicator. The reconciliation to the consolidated 昀椀nancial information is as follows:

| thereof non-current | 69,245 | 68,442 | 73.059 | 74.075 |
Relating to 昀椀nancial liabilities, there are no 昀椀nancial liabilities measured at fair value as of 30 June 2023 and 31 December 2022.
Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts of all current 昀椀nancial assets, trade payables and other 昀椀nancial liabilities approximate their fair value.
Interest rate derivatives in the form of interest rate swaps are measured using yield curves prevailing at the balance sheet date by discounting the future cash 昀氀ows.
Disclosures on fair value measurement
Money market funds reported within cash and cash equivalents are measured at fair value using market prices for identical assets in accessible markets. This corresponds to level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
Derivatives recognized as other 昀椀nancial assets are measured using the discounted cash 昀氀ow method. For this purpose, future cash 昀氀ows are determined on the basis of forward interest rates derived from observable yield curves at the balance sheet date and contracted interest rates. Discounting is perfor med using an interest rate that takes into account the credit risk of the various counterparties. This cor responds to level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the 昀椀nancial liabilities is based on discounted cash 昀氀ows, using the current market inte rest rate for such borrowings of comparable compa nies. They are classi昀椀ed within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs.
Reclassi昀椀cations within and out of the fair value hier archy levels are generally made at the end of the reporting period. There were no reclassi昀椀cations wit hin the respective levels in the reporting period.
