The targeted volume of the share buyback amounts to around 5 million EUR or 11 cents per share. In total, SGF would then return 6 million EUR or 13 cents per share in cash to its shareholders.

SGF generated sales revenues of some 13 million EUR (2021: 11 million euros). Those revenues of 13.3 million EUR are almost exclusively attributable to the segment "PE-Asset Management" (2021: 11.1 million EUR). The revenues have caused costs of purchased services of 3.9 million EUR (2021: 2.4 million EUR). This equals a gross margin of 70% (2021: 78%). The segment achieved an EBITDA of 5.0 million EUR (2021: 6.0 million EUR).
