Notes to the Annual Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation
TRATON SE has its registered office in Munich, Germany, and is entered in the commercial register at Munich Local Court under no. HRB 246068. The Annual Financial Statements of TRATON SE for the fiscal year from January 1 through December 31, 2024, have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB — German Commercial Code) and the SE Regulation, in conjunction with the Aktiengesetz (AktG — German Stock Corporation Act). The provisions for large stock corporations apply.
To enhance clarity, individual items in the balance sheet and income statement have been combined. These items are disclosed separately in the Notes to the Annual Financial Statements. All figures shown have been rounded so minor discrepancies may arise from addition of these amounts. To improve comparability, certain prior-period information was adjusted to reflect the current presentation. Comparable prior-year figures are presented in brackets alongside the figures for the fiscal year under review.
The income statement has been prepared using the cost of sales method.
As of the reporting date of December 31, 2024, TRATON SE was an 89.72%-owned direct subsidiary of Volkswagen International Luxemburg S.A., Strassen, Luxembourg (Volkswagen International Luxemburg), which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagen Finance Luxemburg S.A., Strassen, Luxembourg (Volkswagen Finance Luxemburg). 100% of the shares of Volkswagen Finance Luxemburg are in turn held by Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, Wolfsburg (Volkswagen AG). TRATON SE is included in the consolidated financial statements of Volkswagen AG, Wolfsburg (largest basis of consolidation). TRATON SE prepares consolidated financial statements for the smallest basis of consolidation. Both sets of consolidated financial statements are published in the Company Register.
The Schuldscheindarlehen that had been placed by TRATON SE in 2021 were drawn down in the amount of €350 million (previous year: €700 million) as of December 31, 2024.
The TRATON GROUP has access to a revolving credit line at Volkswagen AG of €4,300 million (previous year: €4,300 million), of which €943 million (previous year: €797 million) was drawn down. TRATON SE also has an unused confirmed credit line of €4,500 million (previous year: €4,500 million) available as a liquidity reserve. TRATON SE had entered into this syndicated loan on July 28, 2020, and increased it from the original €3,750 million to €4,500 million on December 15, 2021. The revolving credit line had a term of five years and was extended twice for one year each following agreement after the banking consortium consisting of 23 banks approved both extension requests. The term of the syndicated loan ends on December 16, 2028. The credit line serves general corporate purposes as well as to safeguard the TRATON GROUP's liquidity.
The TRATON GROUP has had a European Medium Term Notes (EMTN) program since March 12, 2021. This €12,000 million capital market issuance program enables the TRATON GROUP to raise capital on the debt markets flexibly and efficiently. In addition to TRATON SE, the Company's indirect subsidiary TRATON Finance Luxembourg S.A., Strassen, Luxembourg (TRATON Finance) can also issue bonds under the program. The EMTN program is used for general corporate purposes, with the capital raised being used as needed within the TRATON GROUP. The total principal amount of bonds of TRATON Finance outstanding as of December 31, 2024, was €10,819 million (previous year: €8,330 million) under the €12,000-million EMTN program, hedged in part by interest rate derivatives.
In September 2023, the TRATON GROUP had launched a commercial paper program (CP program) with a volume of €2,500 million, of which an equivalent of €189 million (previous year: €999 million) was used for financing in the TRATON Financial Services segment as of December 31, 2024. In addition to TRATON SE, the Company's indirect subsidiaries TRATON Finance and TRATON Treasury AB, Södertälje, Sweden (TRATON Treasury AB) can also issue commercial paper under the CP program. This has opened up an additional financing market for TRATON and complements the existing €12,000-million EMTN program. The CP program is used to finance short-term maturities with terms of up to one year.
Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies used to prepare the Annual Financial Statements, which were essentially unchanged from the previous year, are set out below.
Sales revenue
Sales revenue primarily comprises revenue from services rendered within the TRATON GROUP.
Annual Financial Statements of TRATON SE
Combined Management Report
Further Information
Intangible assets
Purchased intangible assets are recognized at cost and amortized over their useful life (generally three to five years) on a straight-line basis.
Property, plant, and equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less depreciation and, in some cases, write-downs.
Buildings on third-party land are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their rental term. Movable items of property, plant, and equipment are generally depreciated over 13 years.
Low-value movable assets used by the Company that are subject to wear and tear are recognized immediately as expenses or capitalized and written off in the year of acquisition.
Write-downs are recognized if impairment is expected to be permanent.
Financial assets
Shares in affiliated companies and other equity investments are measured at the lower of cost or their net realizable value.
Loans are recognized at the lower of their nominal amount or present value on the reporting date.
Write-downs are recognized if impairment is expected to be permanent. In accordance with the requirement for write-downs to be reversed, if the reasons for permanent impairment no longer apply, the write-down is reversed, but not beyond cost.
Current assets
Receivables and other assets are carried at their principal amounts. Appropriate loss allowances are recognized for identifiable individual risks.
Bank balances are carried at their nominal amount.
Deferred taxes
Deferred taxes are only recognized if accounting differences result in a surplus of liabilities over assets, after taking into account applicable loss and interest carryforwards, and an overall tax expense is expected in future fiscal years. In this, accounting differences relating to companies in the tax group are included insofar as it is assumed that future tax income and expense will result from the reversal of temporary differences at TRATON SE as the head of the tax group. If deferred tax assets exceed deferred tax liabilities, they are not capitalized due to exercise of the recognition option pursuant to section 274 (1) sentence 2 of the HGB.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the applicable corporation tax and trade tax rates for the TRATON tax entity (31.88% (previous year: 31.88%)).
Offset of assets and liabilities, and of income and expenses
Assets that are earmarked solely for meeting pension obligations or obligations under partial retirement agreements and that are protected from all other creditors are recognized at fair value. Income and expenses relating to these assets are offset against the expense for the unwinding of interest for the corresponding obligation and recognized in net interest income/net interest expense. These assets are offset against the settlement amount of the underlying obligation. If the fair value of these assets exceeds the amount of liabilities, the excess amount must be recognized as "excess arising from the offset of assets and liabilities." If liabilities exceed assets, the difference is recognized as a provision.
Pensions and other post-employment benefits
Pension obligations are calculated using the projected unit credit method. Under this method, future obligations are measured on the basis of the proportionate benefit entitlements acquired at the balance sheet date and discounted to their present value. Measurement reflects assumptions about the future development of certain parameters, which affect the amount of future benefits. The discount rate for all obligations is the average market interest rate for the past ten years published by the German Bundesbank for a residual maturity of 15 years, in accordance with section 253 (2) of the HGB.
Pension provisions are reduced by the fair value of the assets used to cover the benefit obligations. See also "Offset of assets and liabilities, and of income and expenses."

Combined Management Report
Further Information
Tax provisions, other provisions, liabilities
The tax provisions and other provisions relate to uncertain liabilities. Measurement ensures that they take account of all identifiable risks, taking into consideration future price and cost increases. Provisions with a maturity of more than one year are discounted on the basis of their remaining maturity.
Liabilities are recognized at their settlement amount.
Currency translation
Receivables and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and hedged are measured at the hedged rate if they are accounted for using the net hedge presentation method. If the gross hedge presentation method is used, they are measured at the closing rate on the reporting date. Miscellaneous current foreign currency receivables and liabilities are translated at the average exchange rate on the reporting date. Miscellaneous noncurrent foreign currency receivables and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the date of recognition, or, in the case of receivables, at the lower exchange rate applicable on the reporting date, or, in the case of liabilities, the higher exchange rate applicable on the reporting date.
Derivatives and micro hedges
TRATON SE uses derivatives exclusively for hedging purposes. Provided the necessary criteria are met, the derivative is combined with the hedged item as a micro hedge. For certain micro hedges, the offsetting changes in the value of the hedged item and the hedging instrument due to the hedged risk are recognized on the balance sheet (gross presentation method). In other cases, the offsetting changes in the value of the hedged item and the hedging instrument due to the hedged risk are netted. In both cases, any net negative amount resulting from changes in the value of the hedged item and hedging instrument (ineffectiveness) is recognized through a provision for the hedge. By contrast, derivatives that do not form a micro hedge with the hedged item are accounted for using the imparity principle, i.e., provisions are recognized for negative fair values but positive fair values are not recognized.

(2) Income from long-term loans
The interest income from long-term loans was €26,696 thousand (previous year: €189,191 thousand) and included €26,696 thousand (previous year: €189,191 thousand) from affiliated companies. The decline was primarily attributable to the contribution to TRATON International S.A., Strassen, Luxembourg (TRATON International S.A.) of a loan of €3,500 million granted to TRATON Sweden AB, Södertälje, Sweden (TRATON Sweden AB) by way of capitalization measures.

(3) Net interest income/net interest expense
| € thousand | 2024 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Miscellaneous interest and similar income¹ | 464,057 | 372,353 |
| of which from affiliated companies¹ | 274,737 | 361,452 |
| Interest and similar expenses¹ | -756,323 | -622,255 |
| of which due to affiliated companies¹ | -432,212 | -434,039 |
| Interest from pension provisions | 3,585 | 3,198 |
| -288,680 | -247,704 |
¹ Since fiscal year 2024, interest expenses and income, which had previously been netted with certain Group companies, will be presented on an unnetted basis, thereby compliant with legal financial reporting requirements and consistent with Group standards. The relevant prior-year amounts have been adjusted to ensure comparability.
The interest income and expenses mainly relate to intragroup receivables, liabilities from financial transactions, and bank interest and commission payments. The interest income contains interest income on taxes of €26,462 thousand (previous year: €1,165 thousand).
The increase in miscellaneous interest and similar income and in interest and similar expenses is partly due to interest rate and interest rate/currency hedges entered into since March 2024 for hedged items of TRATON Financial Services that are sensitive to interest rates (for further details, see Note “(20) Derivatives and micro hedges”). Intragroup refinancing had an offsetting effect on both interest and income from affiliated companies and interest and similar expenses to affiliated companies. In the year under review, net interest income/expense contained €-31 thousand (previous year: €-14 thousand) from the unwinding of discounts on provisions and €4,383 thousand (previous year: €4,095 thousand) from the discounting of provisions.

| Depreciation and amortization | 1,089 | 1,364 |
| Other administrative expenses | 80,408 | 62,872 |
| 157,772 | 137,310 |
The increase in personnel expenses is mainly attributable to new employees joining the Company. In the previous year, higher Executive Board remuneration had been reported under this item due to personnel changes on the Executive Board. The rise in other administrative expenses was mainly due to higher consultancy expenses in connection with the further realization of the TRATON Way Forward strategy.

Subscribed capital (share capital)
The subscribed capital (share capital) of TRATON SE amounts to €500,000,000 and is composed of 500,000,000 no-par value bearer shares with a notional value of €1.00 each.
All shares are fully paid up and have the same dividend rights. Under Article 6 (2) sentence 1 of the Articles of Association, shareholders may not claim delivery of physical share certificates.
Authorized capital
In accordance with Article 5 (3) of the Articles of Association, the Executive Board is authorized to increase the Company's share capital on one or several occasions by a total of up to €200,000,000 by issuing up to 200,000,000 no-par value bearer shares on a cash and/or noncash basis on or before May 31, 2028, subject to the Supervisory Board's approval (Authorized Capital 2023). The dividend entitlement of new shares can be determined contrary to the provisions of section 60 (2) of the AktG.
Shareholders must be granted preemptive rights unless the Executive Board makes use of one of the following authorizations to disapply preemptive rights, with the consent of the Supervisory Board. The new shares may also be underwritten by a credit institution or an entity operating pursuant to section 53 (1) sentence 1 of the Kreditwesengesetz (KWG — German Banking Act) or section 53b (1) sentence 1 or (7) of the KWG (financial institution) to be designated by the Executive Board, or by a consortium of such credit or financial institutions, with the obligation to offer them for sale to shareholders of the Company. The Executive Board is authorized, with the consent of the Supervisory Board, to disapply shareholders' preemptive rights in the following cases:
a) To settle fractions resulting from a capital increase
b) To the extent necessary to grant holders or creditors of convertible bonds or bonds with warrants, as well as convertible profit participation rights, issued by the Company and/or its direct or indirect majority investees a preemptive right to new shares in the amount to which they would be entitled following the exercise of their options or conversion rights or after meeting their exercise of option or conversion obligations

c) If the new shares are issued against cash contributions and the issue price of the new shares is not materially lower than the quoted market price of existing listed shares of the Company at the date when the issue price is finally determined, which should be as close as possible to the placement of the shares.

Shares that (i) are sold or issued, with preemptive rights disapplied, during the term of this authorization up to the date of its exercise on the basis of other authorizations in direct application, or application with the necessary modifications, of section 186 (3) sentence 4 of the AktG, or (ii) shares that were issued or will be issued, with preemptive rights disapplied, to settle bonds or profit participation rights with conversion or exercise rights or obligations will be counted toward this limit, to the extent that the bonds or profit participation rights were issued during the term of this authorization up to the date of its exercise, in application, with the necessary modifications, of section 186 (3) sentence 4 of the AktG.
d) To the extent that the capital increase is implemented to grant shares against noncash contributions, in particular for the purposes of acquiring companies, parts of companies, or investments in companies, or other assets
The Executive Board is also authorized to define further details of the capital increase and its implementation, with the consent of the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board is authorized to amend the wording of Article 5 of the Articles of Association following the complete or partial implementation of the capital increase from Authorized Capital 2023 or after the expiration of the authorization period, in line with the scope of the capital increase.
Contingent capital
Additionally, under Article 5 (4) of the Company's Articles of Association, the Company's share capital may also be increased by up to €50,000,000 on a contingent basis through the issue of up to 50,000,000 bearer shares (no-par value shares) (Contingent Capital 2023). The sole purpose of Contingent Capital 2023 is to issue new shares to the holders/ creditors of bonds which are issued by the Company or by other companies in which the Company directly or indirectly holds a majority interest up to May 31, 2028, in accordance with a resolution passed by the shareholders under item 10.2 of the agenda for the meeting of June 1, 2023, in the event that conversion and/or option rights are exercised or conversion or option exercise obligations are settled or the Company makes use of its right to grant shares in the Company, either in full or in part, in lieu of payment of the respective cash amount. The shares are issued at the conversion or option price to be determined in accordance with the aforementioned resolution. The contingent capital increase will only be implemented to the extent that conversion rights or options are exercised or conversion or option exercise obligations are settled, or the Company exercises its right to grant shares of the Company, either in full or in part, in lieu of payment of the cash amount due, and to the extent that other instruments are not used to settle the conversion rights or options.
The new shares carry dividend rights from the beginning of the fiscal year in which they are issued. To the extent permitted by law, the Executive Board may, with the consent of the Supervisory Board, determine the dividend rights in derogation of the above and of section 60 (2) of the AktG, including for a fiscal year that has already closed.
The Executive Board is authorized to define further details of the implementation of the contingent capital increase, with the consent of the Supervisory Board.
Capital reserves
TRATON SE's capital reserves of €12,495,313 thousand (previous year: €13,295,313 thousand) constitute the contributions by Volkswagen AG to TRATON SE, in particular from the contribution of MAN SE and Scania AB. €800,000 thousand (previous year: €400,000 thousand) was withdrawn from the capital reserves during the year under review.
The entire capital reserves of €12,495,313 thousand are distributable capital reserves within the meaning of section 272 (2) no. 4 of the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB — German Commercial Code).
Retained earnings
Revenue reserves include legal reserves of €28,228 thousand.

Net retained profit
The net retained profit changed as follows in the fiscal year:
| € thousand | Dec. 31, 2024 |
|---|---|
| Opening balance as of 01/01/2024 | 952,103 |
| Payment of a dividend for the 2023 fiscal year in 2024 | -750,000 |
| Net loss for the year | -91,816 |
| Withdrawal from the free capital reserves | 800,000 |
| Closing balance as of 12/31/2024 | 910,287 |
The Executive Board and Supervisory Board of TRATON SE will propose the payout of a dividend from net retained profit of €1.70 (previous year: €1.50) per dividend-bearing share to the shareholders at the Annual General Meeting for fiscal year 2024 and that the remaining amount be carried forward to new account. This proposal corresponds to a total payout of €850 million (previous year: €750 million).
Amounts excluded from distribution
The difference of €11,381 thousand (previous year: €7,200 thousand) between the acquisition cost and fair value of assets measured at fair value serving solely to meet pension and partial retirement obligations is subject to restrictions on distribution. The difference between the provision for pension obligations based on the corresponding average market interest rate in the past ten fiscal years and the past seven fiscal years has not resulted in any amount subject to restrictions on distribution (previous year: €162 thousand). This amount is offset by free capital reserves.
(13) Provisions
a) Provisions for pensions
Occupational pension provision mainly comprises defined benefit pension commitments.
TRATON SE grants its employees in Germany occupational pension benefits, including disability and death cover, for the period after the end of their active service based on the works agreements "TRATON occupational pension provision (BV TAV)" and "TRATON capital account plan (BV KKP)," which applies for senior management and Executive Board members.
Employees receive employer contributions linked to their remuneration and also have the option — subsidized by the employer in the case of employees covered by collective bargaining agreements — to make additional pension savings through deferred compensation. The employer- and employee-funded contributions plus returns on capital market investments allow staff to accumulate plan assets during their active employment that are paid out as a lump sum or in installments on retirement, or that can be annuitized in certain cases. The risk of the investments is gradually reduced as employees get older (life cycle concept). The performance of the plan assets is based on the return on capital investments.
The pension assets of TRATON SE are managed by MAN Pension Trust e.V., Munich. These assets are irrevocably protected from recourse by TRATON SE and may only be used to fund current pension benefit payments or to settle claims by employees in the event of insolvency.
The following measurement parameters were used:
| Dec. 31, 2024 | Dec. 31, 2023 | |
|---|---|---|
| Actuarial interest rate | 1.90% | 1.82% |
| Actuarial interest rate (average market rate in seven fiscal years) | 1.96% | 1.74% |
| Pension trend | 2.00% | 2.20% |
| Salary trend | 3.20% | 3.20% |
The percentage used to calculate the salary trend takes into account increases attributable to career development as an addition to regular salary increases.
A company-specific staff turnover probability rate is used to reflect termination of employment contracts before entitlement to claim benefits.

The biometric parameters are based on the 2005 G mortality tables published by Professor Klaus Heubeck. These were adapted to match TRATON GROUP-specific experience, most recently in 2017, and thus model mortality at TRATON SE better than the updated RT 2018 G mortality tables.
Change in pension obligations
| € thousand | |
|---|---|
| Value of obligations as of 01/01/2024 | -66,899 |
| Interest allocation | -1,062 |
| Allocation from personnel expenses | -5,592 |
| Payments/employee contributions | 2,120 |
| Staff turnover | -861 |
| Value of pension obligations as of 12/31/2024 | -72,294 |
| Change in pension assets | |
| Pension assets as of 01/01/2024 | 62,626 |

| Fair value of pension assets as of 12/31/2024 | 68,196 |
| Purchase cost of pension assets as of 12/31/2024 | 56,833 |
| Provisions for pensions | -4,098 |
The impact on profit or loss resulting from fund assets in the amount of €4,647 thousand has been combined with the interest allocations of €1,062 thousand in accordance with section 246 (2) sentence 2 of the HGB. The resulting amount of €3,585 thousand is contained in net interest income/expense in the "Interest from pension provisions" item.
The difference between the provision for pension obligations based on the corresponding average market interest rate in the past ten fiscal years and the past seven fiscal years is €-106 thousand (previous year: €162 thousand).
b) Tax provisions
As of December 31, 2024, tax provisions amounted to €143,959 thousand (previous year: €154,272 thousand).
c) Other provisions
Other provisions were mainly recognized for the judicial award proceedings, expected losses on derivatives, obligations under public law, obligations for Executive Board remuneration, and for other individual risks. The increase is principally attributable to an addition of €100,888 thousand for the judicial award proceedings and of €28,470 thousand for expected losses on derivatives, taking them to €50,037 thousand. This was set against the reversal of a provision of €1,890 thousand for obligations under public law.
As of December 31, 2024, derivatives with positive fair values of €5,296 thousand (previous year: €5,382 thousand) and negative fair values of €6,395 thousand (previous year: €1,931 thousand) were recognized in other assets and other provisions due to use of the gross hedge presentation method.
The partial retirement liabilities of €2,542 thousand (previous year: €2,540 thousand) were offset against partial retirement credits of €1,279 thousand (previous year: €1,037 thousand). The purchase cost of the partial retirement credits was €1,251 thousand (previous year: €1,051 thousand). The fair value of the partial retirement credits offset was determined on the basis of market prices. Fair value measurement resulted in a loss of €32 thousand (previous year: €34 thousand). The income of €43 thousand (previous year: €39 thousand) was netted with the expenses of €18 thousand (previous year: €11 thousand) and reported in other interest and similar income.

The liabilities to banks are unsecured.
The liabilities to affiliated companies mainly comprise loan liabilities and liabilities relating to the central financing of the TRATON GROUP. The €2,901 million increase is attributable to intragroup refinancing. In this context, liabilities to Scania CV rose by €1,443 million and those to TRATON Sweden AB by €1,039 million.
The liabilities to long-term investees and investors are financial liabilities.

(15) Contingent liabilities and commitments
| € thousand | Dec. 31, 2024 | Dec. 31, 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Contingent liabilities under guarantees | 11,014,934 | 9,869,112 |
| 11,014,934 | 9,869,112 |
The year-on-year increase in contingent liabilities under guarantees mainly results from further drawings under the EMTN program launched in 2021 (increase of €2,487 million to now €10,817 million), which is secured by a guarantee provided by TRATON SE for the liabilities of TRATON Finance Luxembourg in respect of the bond creditors.
At the same time there was a decrease in guarantees for the liabilities of TRATON Finance Luxembourg relating to issuances under the CP program in 2023 (decrease of €810 million to now €189 million).
Moreover, there was no longer a need for guarantees provided by TRATON SE (previous year: €531 million) to collateralize litigation guarantees of Volkswagen Truck & Bus Industria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda. in connection with possible tax risks, after the corresponding litigation guarantees had been replaced by insurance bonds without recourse liability by TRATON SE.
The miscellaneous guarantees amounting to €9 million (previous year: €10 million) secure obligations of present or former Group companies relating to order processing.
The contingent liabilities under guarantees to third parties exclusively provide collateral for liabilities of affiliated companies. Since it is probable that the affiliated companies concerned will be able to settle the obligations underlying the contingent liabilities, we do not expect the guarantees to be utilized.
TRATON SE is liable for the pension liabilities it transferred to WTW Pensionsfonds AG, Wiesbaden, in the event of nonperformance. Under German GAAP, the settlement amount of these indirect obligations is not fully funded by the attributable pension assets. However, the assets available at WTW Pensionfonds AG, Wiesbaden, meet the statutory minimum asset requirement. Therefore, under Article 28 (2) of the Einführungsgesetz zum Handelsgesetzbuch (EGHGB — Introductory Act to the German Commercial Code), the risk of utilization is deemed to be low at €13,200 thousand (previous year: €14,562 thousand).
TRATON SE recognizes contingent liabilities of €35 million (previous year: €35 million) for the provision of security for third-party liabilities comprising possible expenses in connection with its business activities in fiscal year 2024. TRATON SE does not currently expect these to have a material adverse effect on its assets, financial position, or results of operations because it is probable that the underlying liabilities of the affiliates concerned can be settled in full so we do not expect the security to be utilized.
(16) Litigation/legal proceedings
MAN and Scania/EU antitrust proceedings
In July 2016, the European Commission reached settlements (the "Settlement Decision") with MAN and four other European truck manufacturers (excluding Scania) finding collusive arrangements on pricing and the timing and the passing on of costs for emission technologies for medium- and heavy-duty trucks from January 17, 1997, to January 18, 2011 (for MAN: until September 20, 2010). MAN was granted immunity from fines since it had revealed these practices to the European Commission in September 2010. Scania decided not to apply for leniency and not to settle this antitrust case and, by decision of the European Commission dated September 27, 2017 (the "Scania Decision"), received a fine in the amount of approximately €880.5 million. Scania appealed the Scania Decision to the General Court of the European Union and asked for full annulment. On February 2, 2022, the General Court rendered its judgment, whereby Scania's appeal was dismissed in its entirety and the amount of fines set by the European Commission upheld. On April 8, 2022, Scania appealed against the judgment of the General Court of the European Union from February 2, 2022, to the European Court of Justice. The €880.5 million fine plus interest from the EU antitrust proceedings was paid on April 12, 2022, to avoid additional interest penalties. On February 1, 2024, the European Court of Justice decided to dismiss Scania's appeal.

Combined Management Report
Further Information
Following the Settlement Decision, a significant number of (direct and indirect) truck customers in various jurisdictions have initiated or joined lawsuits against MAN and/or Scania. With the merger of MAN SE with TRATON SE taking effect, TRATON SE has — in most jurisdictions — automatically assumed the procedural role of MAN SE as legal successor in the respective proceedings (and is insofar covered by "MAN companies"). Even if such claims may have expired under the respective applicable local laws, it cannot be excluded that further lawsuits will be filed. The claims against MAN companies differ significantly in scope; while some truck customers only bought or leased a single truck, other cases concern a multitude of trucks. Furthermore, some truck customer damages claims have been combined in class actions or through claim aggregators to which the truck customers assigned their respective damages claims.
MAN takes the view that there are well-founded arguments against such claims and takes appropriate steps to defend itself.
However, it cannot be excluded that these claims result in substantial liabilities for MAN including significant costs for their defense, which may have a material adverse effect on MAN's financial results, cash flows and financial positions. Given the inherently complex nature of these claims and the different stages of the proceedings (with a number of cases still in a rather early stage), it is not possible to make a reliable estimate of the total liability that may arise from these claims. MAN is continuously monitoring the development and re-assesses the respective risks on a regular basis.
A relatively small number of (direct and indirect) customers in various jurisdictions have initiated or joined lawsuits against Scania. Further, Scania has received a number of third-party notices from other defendant commercial vehicle manufacturers. As is the case for MAN, the claims against Scania differ significantly in scope as some customers only bought or leased one truck while others operate a whole fleet of commercial vehicles. Furthermore, some customer damages claims in other jurisdictions have been combined in class actions or through claim aggregators. The exact number of commercial vehicles involved is, however, unknown.
As of December 31, 2024, no provisions were recognized in the TRATON GROUP for the majority of these cases as it is not assumed as of the reporting date that there will be a final and unappealable court ruling awarding damages.
VW Truck & Bus Ltda.
In the tax proceedings between Volkswagen Truck & Bus Industria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda. (VW Truck & Bus Ltda.), formerly MAN Latin America Industria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda. (MAN Latin America), and the Brazilian tax authorities, the Brazilian tax authorities took a different view of the tax implications of the acquisition structure chosen by MAN SE (now merged with TRATON SE) for the acquisition of VW Truck & Bus Ltda. in 2009. The tax proceedings have been divided into two auditing periods, covering the years 2009–2011 (Phase 1) and 2012–2014 (Phase 2). In December 2017, an adverse last instance judgment was rendered by the Brazilian Administrative Court (Phase 1), which was negative for VW Truck & Bus Ltda. VW Truck & Bus Ltda. appealed this judgment before a regular judicial court in 2018. This lawsuit was dismissed in 2019, and an appeal was filed against the dismissal. The appeal was then rejected in June 2023, and a petition for review was filed in July 2023. In the tax proceeding related to Phase 2, a partial success was achieved that partly reduced the penalties. An appeal against this decision was filed, which was rejected in September 2023, thus concluding the Administrative Court proceedings. As a result of a new law regarding the handling of casting vote decisions in September 2023, VW Truck & Bus Ltda. filed an objection to the determinations in October 2023. In May 2024, a law amendment already resulted in a significant reduction in the penalties in Phase 2, followed in November 2024 by the complete repeal of isolated and qualified Phase 2 penalties.

Further Information
Due to the potential range of penalties plus interest which could apply under Brazilian law, the estimated size of the risk in the event that the tax authorities are able to prevail overall with their view is uncertain. This could result in a risk of about BRL 3,068 million (equivalent to €477 million as of December 31, 2024) for the contested period from 2009 onward. This assessment is based on the accumulated accounts at the reporting date for the claimed tax liability including the potential penalty surcharges, as well as accumulated interest, but excluding any future interest and without discounting any cash flows. Several insurers have issued bank guarantees for the benefit of VW Truck & Bus Ltda. as is customary in connection with such tax proceedings.
Update on the MAN SE merger squeeze-out
The merger of MAN SE with TRATON SE was entered in the commercial register of MAN SE and TRATON SE on August 31, 2021. With this, MAN SE ceased to exist as an independent legal entity, and all rights and obligations were transferred to TRATON SE. MAN SE shares were delisted at the same time.
Cash compensation in the amount of €70.68 per common and preferred share was paid out to MAN SE noncontrolling shareholders on September 3, 2021. This marked the conclusion of the MAN SE merger squeeze-out. The appropriateness of the cash compensation will be reviewed by a court-appointed auditor as part of the judicial award proceedings initiated by affected noncontrolling interest shareholders as applicants.
By way of a ruling dated December 20, 2024, which is not yet final, the Regional Court of Munich I increased the cash compensation to €79.71 per common and preferred share. Various applicants as well as TRATON SE appealed against this ruling in January 2025. In fiscal year 2024, €106 million was recognized under other operating expenses and €3 million was recognized as interest income from discounting.
(17) Other financial obligations
Other financial obligations mainly comprise rental and lease agreements and purchase commitments. The future payments — up to the end of the minimum term of these agreements — are due as follows:

(19) Deferred taxes
The tax rate used to measure deferred taxes is 31.88%.
Deferred tax liabilities relating to measurement differences between the commercial and tax accounts are offset against deferred tax assets relating to the measurement differences. Deferred tax assets remaining after this offset are not capitalized due to exercise of the recognition option pursuant to section 274 (1) sentence 2 of the HGB. The remaining deductible temporary differences, for which no deferred tax assets are recognized, in application of the above recognition option, mainly comprise loss carryforwards and measurement differences relating to provisions for pensions and other noncurrent provisions.
The introduction of Global Minimum Taxation (Pillar 2) has not led to any material costs for the TRATON GROUP. The TRATON GROUP has applied the exemption from the recognition and disclosure of deferred taxes in connection with Pillar 2 income taxes.
(20) Derivatives and micro hedges
The companies in the TRATON GROUP hedge their interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity risks on an arm's length basis via the central Group Treasury unit at TRATON SE or the central Group Treasury unit at TRATON Treasury AB, Södertälje, Sweden (Scania CV AB).
TRATON SE's risks positions are hedged externally with banks. TRATON SE currently enters into currency forwards, currency options, interest rate swaps, cross-currency swaps, and commodity futures transactions with cash settlement. Exceptions from this process are TRATON Finance Luxembourg S.A. and TRATON SWEDEN AB, which enter into external interest rate and currency hedges in connection with risks resulting from external financing transactions, which are passed on internally. Some companies of International Motors LLC, Lisle, Illinois, USA (formerly Navistar) enter into their own external currency options and commodity futures. However, the majority of these hedging transactions are undertaken through TRATON SE. As of December 31, 2024, International had commodity derivatives amounting to USD 37 million and FX derivatives amounting to USD 137 million in its portfolio. Of these derivatives, only the commodity derivatives of USD 37 million had been entered into separately with external parties without being passed on by TRATON SE. The maximum term of the commodity derivatives is year-end 2025. The maximum term of the FX derivatives is June 2027. Apart from those, International had no external interest rate swaps, but it does have two internal interest rate swaps with TRATON SE, which run until April 2026.
In addition, the portfolio contains a large number of currency forwards, currency options, interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps of Scania CV AB. TRATON Treasury AB also continues to enter into external transactions in the name of Scania CV AB.
The fair value of currency forwards and commodity futures is calculated on the basis of the exchange rates applicable as of the reporting date, which are obtained from recognized providers of market data, compared with the agreed forward exchange rate or commodity futures price and the discount rate for the remaining term of the derivatives. The fair value of the interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows over the remaining term of the swap using current market interest rates and the interest structure curve.
TRATON SE uses micro hedges, where an individual hedged item is allocated to a hedging instrument, and portfolio hedges. In portfolio hedges, several transactions are grouped, for example, in annual maturity bands per currency. The individual currency and maturity combinations and the interest rate and maturity bands therefore comprise exposure to similar risks. Hedging of the foreign currency portfolio of TRATON SE is close to 100%. Similarly, items of TRATON SE that are sensitive to interest rates are hedged on a case-by-case basis using external interest rate swaps. As of December 31, 2024, the hedged items that were sensitive to interest rates comprised one fixed-interest intragroup loan in a foreign currency and one fixed-interest external loan in euros; these are hedged through interest rate swaps. The external loan in the amount of €1,000 million was hedged using five interest rate swaps. Moreover, there are two internal interest rate swaps with International that are hedged by back-to-back external interest rate swaps as well as a loan at Volkswagen AG that has been hedged by an external interest rate swap. Since March 2024, items and foreign exchange risk exposures of the TRATON Financial Services Group are also hedged by Treasury of TRATON Treasury AB in the name of TRATON SE. This has resulted in a sharp rise in the volume of interest rate hedges, interest rate/currency hedges and currency forwards entered into in the name of TRATON SE.

Further Information
Changes in the fair value of the hedging instruments are offset by offsetting movements in the fair value of the hedged items. The opposing fluctuations in value essentially cancel each other out by the end of the term of the hedge because the risks correlate due to the correlation between the parameters. The hedging instruments have terms of up to four years. The effectiveness of each portfolio hedge is determined retrospectively during its term on the basis of the change in the fair values of the hedged items and the hedging instruments (dollar offset method). For each micro hedge, the amounts, currency units, and settlement dates of the hedged item and the hedging instrument are compared (critical term match). If they are basically identical, the hedge is assumed to be effective. Effectiveness is determined when preparing the Annual Financial Statements.
For micro hedges where internal accounts at TRATON are hedged against currency risk, all changes in the fair value of the hedged item and hedging instrument are recognized in the financial statements (gross hedge presentation method). Where internal derivatives are hedged, they are recognized using the net hedge presentation method. If the hedge is effective and the net fair value is negative, a provision is established for the hedge. In principle, both methods can be used for hedges of foreign currency money market transactions, but only one method is used for each transaction.
As of December 31, 2024, there was a provision of €50,037 thousand (previous year: €21,566 thousand) for micro hedges. Further, there was no ineffectiveness due to the use of micro hedges.
As of December 31, 2024, derivatives with positive fair values of €5,296 thousand (previous year: €5,382 thousand) and negative fair values of €6,395 thousand (previous year: €1,931 thousand) were recognized in other assets and other provisions due to use of the gross hedge presentation method.
For currency option contracts concluded with affiliated companies and passed through to banks, option premiums of €4,873 thousand (previous year: €4,873 thousand) were capitalized as other assets and option premiums of €4,873 thousand (previous year: €4,873 thousand) were expensed as other liabilities.
The following table shows the risk exposure resulting from transactions in foreign currencies. These were hedged through derivatives entered into with banks.

Further Information
Post-employment benefits relate to additions to pension provisions and — depending on the social security system — contributions to the Swedish pension system for current members of the Executive Board.
The termination benefits in 2023 relate to the payments to Ms. Danielski and Mr. Osterloh in connection with their departure from the Executive Board before the end of their term of office. No member left the Executive Board of TRATON SE in 2024.
(23) Remuneration of the Executive Board and Supervisory Board
The total remuneration granted to the members of the Executive Board amounted to €11,057 thousand (previous year: €10,000 thousand). Of this amount, €2,333 thousand (previous year: €1,905 thousand) will be reimbursed by MAN Truck & Bus SE. The amount also includes €128 thousand (previous year: €510 thousand) to be reimbursed by TRATON SE to International.
Four of the TRATON SE Executive Board members also serve as executive board members at TRATON SE's foreign subsidiaries (Mr. Levin: Scania CV AB, Mr. Cortes: Volkswagen Truck & Bus Indústria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda., Mr. Carlbaum: International; Ms. Modahl Nilsson: TRATON AB). Mr. Levin's remuneration has been divided between TRATON SE and Scania CV AB based on areas of responsibility. Mr. Cortes receives 20% of his fixed (without fringe benefits) and variable remuneration components from TRATON SE and the remaining 80% from Volkswagen Truck & Bus Indústria e Comércio de Veículos Ltda. Until September 30, 2024, Mr. Carlbaum received 100% of his remuneration from Scania CV AB and International on the basis of a secondment agreement between him and these two companies. TRATON SE bears 20% of the expenses for fixed remuneration (excluding fringe benefits) and variable remuneration through intragroup cross-charging. The secondment ended on October 1, 2024, and since then Mr. Carlbaum has been employed directly by International in addition to his employment contract with TRATON SE. Since October 1, 2024, Mr. Carlbaum has received 20% of his fixed (without fringe benefits) and variable remuneration components from TRATON SE and the remaining 80% from International. Ms. Modahl Nilsson receives 20% of her fixed (without fringe benefits) and variable remuneration components from TRATON SE and the remaining 80% from TRATON AB.
The remuneration of the members of the Executive Board is based on the revised remuneration system ("remuneration system"), which features a performance share plan with a forward-looking four-year term (share-based payment). It was adopted by the Supervisory Board effective from January 1, 2024, and largely corresponds to the remuneration system already adopted on December 16, 2020, and effective from January 1, 2021, and most recently approved by the Annual General Meeting on June 9, 2022. The remuneration system applies to all members of the Executive Board with new or extended employment contracts from the date of the 2024 Annual General Meeting. For the members of the Executive Board who were already in office prior to December 16, 2020, the remuneration system shall apply until their contract is renewed and with the proviso that the performance share plan will continue to have a performance period of three years. This no longer applied to any active members of the Executive Board in fiscal year 2024. A performance share plan with a four-year performance period has also been in place for Mr. Levin and Mr. Cortes since fiscal year 2024. At the time the LTI is granted, the annual target amount under the LTI is converted into virtual performance shares on the basis of the initial reference price of TRATON SE shares. These performance shares are allocated to the individual member of the Executive Board as a pure calculation value. At the end of the three- or four-year performance period, a final number of virtual performance shares is determined, based on the degree to which the earnings per share (EPS) performance criterion of the TRATON GROUP has been met. A cash settlement is made at the beginning of the fiscal year following the last fiscal year of the performance period. The payment amount corresponds to the number of specified performance shares multiplied by the closing reference price at the end of the three- or four-year performance period, plus a dividend equivalent for the relevant term. The payment amount from the performance share plan is limited to 250% of the target amount. For 2024, the Executive Board members were allocated a total of 192,949 performance shares (previous year: 239,712 performance shares). Their fair value on the grant date was €3,016 thousand (previous year: €2,669 thousand). Under German GAAP, this amount is included in remuneration. The carrying amount of the obligation as of December 31, 2024, was €8,489 thousand (previous year: €7,427 thousand). The remuneration expense of €5,662 thousand (previous year: €6,142 thousand) was recognized in personnel expenses. These amounts do not constitute remuneration within the meaning of German GAAP. The intrinsic value was €2,108 thousand (previous year: €324 thousand) and corresponds to the amount that the Executive Board members would have received if they had left the Executive Board as of December 31, 2024. Only the vested performance shares earned as of reporting date are included in this calculation.

Report on the audit of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report
Opinions
We have audited the annual financial statements of TRATON SE, Munich, which comprise the income statement for the fiscal year from 1 January to 31 December 2024 and the balance sheet as at 31 December 2024, and notes to the financial statements, including the recognition and measurement policies presented therein. In addition, we have audited the management report of TRATON SE, which is combined with the group management report ("combined management report"), for the fiscal year from 1 January to 31 December 2024. In accordance with the German legal requirements, we have not audited the content of the parts of the combined management report listed in the appendix to the auditor's report and the company information stated therein that is provided outside of the annual report and is referenced in the combined management report.
In our opinion, on the basis of the knowledge obtained in the audit,
- the accompanying annual financial statements comply, in all material respects, with the requirements of German commercial law applicable to business corporations and give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2024 and of its financial performance for the fiscal year from 1 January to 31 December 2024 in compliance with German legally required accounting principles, and
- the accompanying combined management report as a whole provides an appropriate view of the Company's position. In all material respects, this combined management report is consistent with the annual financial statements, complies with German legal requirements and appropriately presents the opportunities and risks of future development. We do not express an opinion on the content of the parts of the combined management report listed in the appendix to the auditor's report.
Pursuant to Sec. 322 (3) Sentence 1 HGB ("Handelsgesetzbuch": German Commercial Code), we declare that our audit has not led to any reservations relating to the legal compliance of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report.
Basis for the opinions
We conducted our audit of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report in accordance with Sec. 317 HGB and the EU Audit Regulation (No 537/2014, referred to subsequently as "EU Audit Regulation") and in compliance with German Generally Accepted Standards for Financial Statement Audits promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer [Institute of Public Auditors in Germany] (IDW). Our responsibilities under those requirements and principles are further described in the "Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report" section of our auditor's report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the requirements of European law and German commercial and professional law, and we have fulfilled our other German professional responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. In addition, in accordance with Art. 10 (2) f) of the EU Audit Regulation, we declare that we have not provided non-audit services prohibited under Art. 5 (1) of the EU Audit Regulation. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions on the annual financial statements and on the combined management report.
Key audit matters in the audit of the annual financial statements
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the annual financial statements for the fiscal year from 1 January to 31 December 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the annual financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon; we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Further Information
Below, we describe what we consider to be the key audit matters:
Recoverability of shares in affiliated companies
Reasons why the matter was determined to be a key audit matter:
To assess the recoverability of shares in affiliated companies, each year the Company tests on the basis of the affiliated companies' budgets and forecasts whether there are any indications that a recognized share in an affiliated company could be permanently impaired. The result of the impairment testing of the shares in affiliated companies is highly dependent on the executive directors' estimate of future cash flows and which discount rates they use.
In addition, the executive directors have scope for judgment in determining the discount rates used and the long-term growth rates assumed.
In view of the foregoing, the materiality of the shares in affiliated companies in relation to total assets, the complexity of their valuation and the judgment exercised during valuation, the impairment test of the shares in affiliated companies was a key audit matter.
Auditor's response:
During our audit, we involved internal valuation specialists to test among other things the methods used to test impairment. In particular, we assessed the procedures for identifying indications of impairment likely to be permanent affecting recognized shares in affiliated companies. In this context, we assessed whether the procedures are suitable for providing objective evidence of a lower net realizable value following prolonged impairment and whether these procedures were consistent with those used in the prior year. We also checked the arithmetical accuracy of the valuation models used.
We analyzed the planning process established in the TRATON Group, which includes the affiliated companies, and tested the operating effectiveness of the controls implemented in the planning process. As a starting point, we compared the TRATON Group's five-year operational plan prepared by the executive directors and acknowledged by the Supervisory Board with the forecast figures in the underlying impairment tests.
We discussed the key planning assumptions for affiliated companies selected on the basis of risk and materiality aspects with the executive directors and compared them with past earnings and cash inflows to assess the planning accuracy.
We based plausibility testing of the inputs for the impairment tests among other things on a comparison with general and industry-specific market expectations underlying the expected cash inflows. We discussed the significant assumptions with the responsible employees. In doing so, we considered in particular inflation expectations and increases in the cost of materials and personnel expenses.
Furthermore, we discussed and assessed the planning assumptions regarding the effects of climate change and the associated expansion of e-mobility, particularly the existing uncertainties related to the estimation of market shares for electric vehicles and margins as well as long-term growth rates used for the planning. With respect to the rollforward from the medium-term plan to the long-term forecast, we assessed the plausibility of the assumed growth rates by comparing them with observable data.
To assess the discount rates applied, we analyzed the inputs used to determine them on the basis of publicly available information and obtained an understanding of the methods used.
We also assessed the sensitivity analyses performed by the executive directors in order to estimate any potential impairment risk associated with a reasonably possible change in one of the significant assumptions used in the valuation.
As part of our audit of intragroup reorganizations, we examined the underlying contractual documents and assessed the propriety of accounting according to German commercial law on the basis of the principles applicable to exchange transactions and non-cash contributions. Furthermore, we assessed the proper accounting treatment of the transactions in the annual financial statements of TRATON SE, including the disclosures in the notes.
Our procedures did not lead to any reservations relating to the assessment of the recoverability of shares in affiliated companies.
Reference to related disclosures:
With regard to the recognition and measurement policies applied for shares in affiliated companies, refer to the disclosures on financial assets in the "Accounting Policies" section and note 9 of the "Balance Sheet Disclosures" section of the notes to the financial statements.

Further Information
Other information
The executive directors and the Supervisory Board are responsible for the declaration pursuant to Sec. 161 AktG ["Aktiengesetz": German Stock Corporation Act] on the German Corporate Governance Code, which is part of the Corporate Governance Statement. In all other respects, the executive directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the parts of the annual report listed in the appendix.
Our opinions on the annual financial statements and on the combined management report do not cover the other information, and consequently we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in so doing, to consider whether the other information
- is materially inconsistent with the annual financial statements, with the combined management report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or
- otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
Responsibilities of the executive directors and the Supervisory Board for the annual financial statements and the combined management report
The executive directors are responsible for the preparation of the annual financial statements that comply, in all material respects, with the requirements of German commercial law applicable to business corporations, and that the annual financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and financial performance of the Company in compliance with German legally required accounting principles. In addition, the executive directors are responsible for such internal control as they, in accordance with German legally required accounting principles, have determined necessary to enable the preparation of annual financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud (i.e., fraudulent financial reporting and misappropriation of assets) or error.
In preparing the annual financial statements, the executive directors are responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. They also have the responsibility for disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern. In addition, they are responsible for financial reporting based on the going concern basis of accounting, provided no actual or legal circumstances conflict therewith.
Furthermore, the executive directors are responsible for the preparation of the combined management report that, as a whole, provides an appropriate view of the Company's position and is, in all material respects, consistent with the annual financial statements, complies with German legal requirements and appropriately presents the opportunities and risks of future development. In addition, the executive directors are responsible for such arrangements and measures (systems) as they have considered necessary to enable the preparation of a management report that is in accordance with the applicable German legal requirements, and to be able to provide sufficient appropriate evidence for the assertions in the combined management report.
The Supervisory Board is responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process for the preparation of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and whether the combined management report as a whole provides an appropriate view of the Company's position and, in all material respects, is consistent with the annual financial statements and the knowledge obtained in the audit, complies with the German legal requirements and appropriately presents the opportunities and risks of future development, as well as to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinions on the annual financial statements and on the combined management report.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Sec. 317 HGB and the EU Audit Regulation and in compliance with German Generally Accepted Standards for Financial Statement Audits promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW) will always detect a material misstatement. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these annual financial statements and this combined management report.

Further Information
We exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the annual financial statements and of the combined management report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinions. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit of the annual financial statements and of arrangements and measures relevant to the audit of the combined management report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control and of such arrangements and measures.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used by the executive directors and the reasonableness of estimates made by the executive directors and related disclosures.
- Conclude on the appropriateness of the executive directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in the auditor's report to the related disclosures in the annual financial statements and in the combined management report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our respective opinions. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to be able to continue as a going concern.
-
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the annual financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the annual financial statements present the underlying transactions and events in a manner that the annual financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and financial performance of the Company in compliance with German legally required accounting principles.
-
Evaluate the consistency of the combined management report with the annual financial statements, its conformity with [German] law, and the view of the Company's position it provides.
- Perform audit procedures on the prospective information presented by the executive directors in the combined management report. On the basis of sufficient appropriate audit evidence we evaluate, in particular, the significant assumptions used by the executive directors as a basis for the prospective information, and evaluate the proper derivation of the prospective information from these assumptions. We do not express a separate opinion on the prospective information and on the assumptions used as a basis. There is a substantial unavoidable risk that future events will differ materially from the prospective information.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with the relevant independence requirements, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and where applicable, the related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the annual financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter.
