  . 28 percent increase in sales to EUR 158.6 million and 84 percent online growth 
  . EBIT quadrupled to EUR 15.6 million 
  . Earnings increased in all segments 
Hamburg, 12 May 2021. The wine trading group Hawesko Holding AG (HAW, HAWG.DE, DE0006042708) today published its 
quarterly statement for the period ending March 31, 2021. Sales show an increase of 28 percent to EUR 159 million 
(prior-year period: EUR 123.8 million). EBIT in the same period amounted to EUR 16 million (same period last year: EUR 4 
million), thus quadrupling. The comparable period last year was hardly affected by Corona. 
In the first quarter, the E-Commerce segment achieved a year-on-year increase in revenue of a good 65 percent, while 
the Retail segment grew by 22 percent. The B2B segment was below the previous year's level with a revenue development 
of -7 percent due to a lack of revenue in the catering and hotel sectors, although the German B2B subsidiaries were 
slightly up on the previous year. Overall, the operating result developed very positively: In the E-Commerce segment, 
EBIT almost quadrupled to EUR 9.7 million (previous year: EUR 2.5 million). In the Retail segment, earnings more than 
doubled to EUR 6.4 million (previous year: EUR 2.5 million). Despite ongoing closures in the food service and hotel 
sectors, the B2B segment generated a result of EUR 1.1 million (previous year: EUR -99 thousand). 
The Chairman of the Board of Management of the Hawesko Group, Thorsten Hermelink, comments: "Even in the Corona crisis, 
our formats such as HAWESKO, Jacques', Vinos and Wein & Co. are proving strong. We want to further expand the market 
position of the Hawesko Group as Europe's largest, most innovative and most profitable wine trading group in the 
premium segment. In doing so, we can rely not only on our innovative strength but also on our high level of wine 
expertise and decades of experience in the wine market." 
The course of the rest of the financial year is very much dependent on the duration and form of the measures to combat 
the COVID 19 pandemic, but also on consumer reaction following its easing. Against this backdrop, it is not currently 
possible to make a reliable forecast of business performance for the remainder of the financial year.
