Equivalent to EBT margin

~€3.3bn 1.0-1.6%

This outlook does not include any one-off expenses for impairments and structural measures for capacity adjustments.

If further countries and regions impose lockdowns, partial lockdowns or travel restrictions because of Covid 19, this could negatively impact the completion of orders and order intake and consequently have a negative influence on Krones' financial performance.
