1 | Current Situation

Focus Remains on Performance Improvement Despite Additional Challenges

Review Q1 2022

Group (+) Uncertainties in demand due to the war in Eastern Europe persist, however sales mostly unchanged (-) COVID-19 related lockdowns in China added challenges to the overall supply and logistics situation

Automotive

  • (-) Inflation headwinds had material influence on margins

  • (+) Customer negotiations to cover cost inflation in progress; first agreements achieved

  • (+) Actively securing semiconductor supplies for 2023 and beyond

  • (+) Order intake of more than €5.8 bn

Tires (+) Strong margin, supported also by inventory valuation (-) Further cost increases for raw materials, energy and logistics ContiTech (+) Positive EBIT-contributions from pricing activities for non-OE business (-) Further cost increases for raw materials, energy and logistics

Priorities FY 2022

Sustainability at Tires

ContiRe.Tex Technology successfully launched

Tires is leading in water and energy efficiency

Top ratings for energy efficiency and wet grip performance

Expansion of circular economy activities

  • Jointly developed technology

  • Production readiness in record time

    Energy consumption 17% lower and water usage 20% lower compared to all competitors

    • Original equipment tire with a significantly improved rolling resistance

      • Recycling of end-of-life tires through pyrolysis further optimized and expanded

  • First tire manufacturer to launch volume production of tires containing recycled polyester yarn obtained from PET plastic bottles

    • Energy efficiency classification exceeds EU tire label rating A by ~ 17%

      • Development agreement with Pyrum Innovations

    • EU tire label "A" rating for wet braking performance.

      • Medium-term aim: obtain particularly high-quality recovered carbon black

  • 40 recycled PET bottles in a set of standard passenger car tires

  • Remarkable since reduction of rolling resistance and exceptionally high braking performance are conflicting physical targets

  • Long-term goal: closed-loop recycling concept for end-of-life tires
