Explanation of financial figures:

The financial figure of adjusted operating profit (adjusted EBITDA) is not a figure defined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). It includes earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted by the effects of major acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries, business units and shareholdings, amortization as well as write-ups of shareholdings, effects from the acquisition, construction and sale of real estate, amortization and write-ups on owner-occupied real estate as well as expenses in connection with share-based compensation programs of the Managing Directors, as well as other non-operating or non-period-related non-recurring effects.
