    LEG Immobilien SE Elevator Pitch 2025 | Affordable Housing, Cash Growth & Long-Term Value

    LEG Immobilien SE Elevator Pitch: Key TakeawaysOverview of LEG Immobilien SELEG Immobilien SE is one of Germany's largest and most focused residential real estate companies, dedicated entirely to affordable housing and long-term, cash-driven value creation. In this elevator pitch, Head of Investor Relations & Strategy Frank Kopfinger provides institutional investors with a clear, structured, and transparent overview of LEG's business model, portfolio characteristics, financial positioning, and the strategic levers that will drive earnings growth in the years ahead.Portfolio Scale and Regional FocusWith 172,000 apartments housing roughly 500,000 tenants, LEG is the second-largest listed residential landlord in Germany—yet uniquely concentrated on one region and one asset class. Around 80% of the portfolio is located in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany's most populous state and an economic powerhouse responsible for 22% of national GDP. This regional focus gives LEG deep operating expertise, stable structural demand, and a consistent ability to deliver affordable housing at scale.Affordable Housing and Social ResponsibilityLEG's portfolio is positioned at the core of the German social housing ecosystem. Average rents amount to just €7 per sqm—or around €450 per apartment per month—well below national averages, ensuring consistently high occupancy and strong tenant retention. Approximately 17% of units are rent-restricted, providing predictable cash flows supported by state subsidies for low-income households. This is complemented by a disciplined asset valuation of roughly €1,700 per sqm, far below replacement cost levels of €4,000–5,000 per sqm, resulting in a substantial valuation buffer and a highly attractive 4.9% portfolio yield.Valuation, NTA, and Market DiscountBased on these valuations, LEG's NTA (NAV) per share stands at around €131, while the share price trades at a deep discount. This highlights market concerns about interest rates, as well as the potential upside as fundamentals normalise. Frank Kopfinger will explain how LEG managed the interest-rate shock remarkably well: by placing strict focus on cash, liquidity and AFO (Adjusted Funds from Operations), the company's key free-cash-flow metric since 2023.Cash Preservation MeasuresOver the past two years, LEG executed a series of disciplined measures to safeguard cash generation:  • ~6,000 non-core units sold for over €550 million  * Scrip dividends offered in 2023 and 2024  * Wind-down of the development pipeline, with the last new units completed in 2025Combined, these initiatives generated around €1 billion in cash, strengthening the balance sheet and allowing LEG to return earnings to pre-crisis levels as early as 2025—even amid high interest rates.Future Earnings MomentumLooking ahead, LEG expects earnings momentum to continue. Based on the 2025 guidance, AFO per share is set to increase by around 10%, followed by an additional ~5% in 2026. Multiple structural drivers support this outlook:  • Severe housing shortage due to collapsing construction volumes  * Ongoing market rent growth supported by strong demand  * Cost-rent adjustments for subsidised units beginning in 2026  * 16,000 regulated units coming off restriction in 2028, enabling rent increases toward market levels▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    LEG Immobilien SE Financial Results 9M 2025 | Strong AFFO Growth and Portfolio Resilience

    LEG Immobilien SE FY 2024: Key TakeawaysLEG Immobilien SE 9M 2025 Financial OverviewLEG Immobilien SE — one of Germany's largest pure-play residential real estate companies with more than 172,000 units and a strong footprint in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW) — has shown remarkable resilience and strategic discipline in the first nine months of 2025. Despite the challenges posed by elevated interest rates, persistent supply shortages, rising construction costs, and structurally tight housing markets, the company has delivered a solid performance, demonstrating cash discipline and predictable earnings quality.In this video, Head of Investor Relations Frank Kopfinger walks investors through the operational and financial highlights that have shaped the first three quarters of 2025 and outlines how LEG is positioning itself for sustainable, long-term AFFO growth.Strong AFFO Growth and Predictable Cash FlowsAt the core of LEG's 2025 performance is strong growth in Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) — the company's key steering metric. The 9M period saw LEG report an AFFO increase of approximately 10%, a significant achievement given current market conditions. This growth was underpinned by stable occupancy, continued rent growth in regulated and free-financed units, and tight cost management. With regulated units representing 17% of the portfolio, LEG benefits from predictable cash flows and embedded rent-adjustment mechanisms, including the cost rent adjustment scheduled to support earnings from 2026 onwards.High-Quality Portfolio and Valuation BufferPortfolio quality remains high, with a valuation of €1,656 per sqm, significantly below replacement cost levels in German metropolitan regions. This deep valuation buffer not only supports capital preservation but also positions LEG attractively for future revaluations once interest-rate cycles ease. Importantly, the company continues to narrow the spread between contractual in-place rents and market rents, enabling multi-year organic rental growth within regulatory boundaries.Capital Discipline and Balance Sheet StrengthBalance-sheet strength remains a strategic priority for LEG. Over the last 24 months, the company has executed a series of proactive capital-preservation measures, including asset disposals of non-core units, a scrip dividend, tight cost control, and a reduction of new development activities. These actions have collectively generated roughly €1 billion in cash and materially improved liquidity and leverage levels. LEG's commitment to 100% AFFO-based dividends, supplemented by proceeds from disposals, ensures a transparent and sustainable framework for shareholder returns, instilling confidence in our investors.Favorable Market FundamentalsThe underlying housing fundamentals in Germany continue to strengthen LEG's long-term outlook: structurally low construction rates, a persistent supply-demand gap, demographic tailwinds, rising household numbers, and an undersupplied affordable housing segment. LEG's exclusive focus on affordable living, combined with deep regional expertise and efficient operations, ensures a resilient demand profile across cycles.▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    JOST Werke SE Financial Results 9M 2025 | Global Performance & Tech-Driven Growth

    JOST Werke SE 9M 2025: Key TakeawaysOverview of JOST Werke SE PerformanceJOST Werke SE, one of the world's leading suppliers of safety-critical components and systems for commercial vehicles, delivered a resilient performance in the first nine months of 2025. In this in-depth presentation, Romy Acosta, Head of Investor Relations, outlines the company's financial developments, market dynamics, regional trends and strategic outlook as JOST continues to strengthen its global competitive position.Solid Performance Despite a Mixed Market EnvironmentThe first nine months of 2025 were marked by significant volatility in the global commercial vehicle industry. Despite this, JOST demonstrated resilience, with OEM production levels returning to normal after two years of post-pandemic surge, and certain markets softening due to macro conditions, destocking cycles, and shifting order patterns.Against this backdrop, JOST delivered a stable revenue base and maintained strong profitability in its core business lines — particularly in Trailer Solutions and Components for the agricultural sector.Romy Acosta explains that JOST's diversified portfolio once again acted as a stabilizer. The company's broad regional footprint, balanced mix of OEM and aftermarket business and deep global customer relationships helped offset temporary demand weakness in selected geographies.Regional Trends Highlight JOST's Balanced ExposurePerformance varied significantly across regions, reflecting different economic and industry cycles:Europe remained the company's strongest platform, supported by solid trailer demand, resilient aftermarket activity and continued adoption of JOST's safety technologies.North America experienced a softer market environment, particularly on the truck-OEM side, where destocking and lower Class 8 build rates weighed on volumes.Asia and emerging markets provided selective growth impulses, particularly in India and Southeast Asia, where infrastructure spending and demand for agricultural machinery supported order patterns.Agricultural Solutions remained a relative outperformer, benefiting from structurally high demand for modern farming equipment and increasingly sophisticated coupling and hydraulic systems.This strategic balance across regions and segments is a key advantage for JOST Werke SE. It not only cushions against cyclical fluctuations but also paves the way for long-term growth, instilling confidence in our investors and stakeholders.Operational Discipline Supports ProfitabilityThroughout the period, JOST's operational discipline was a consistent theme, ensuring strong financial management and cost control.JOST maintained strong cost control, optimised working capital, and continued to realise efficiency gains from prior footprint adjustments and automation investments.In addition, the company benefitted from a healthier product mix with a larger share of value-added systems and electronically controlled components — areas where JOST enjoys strong pricing, margin resilience and technological leadership.The combination of disciplined execution and portfolio quality supported robust EBIT margins despite softer top-line momentum in individual markets.]▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    Mutares SE 9M 2025: Key TakeawaysStrong Performance Overview for 9M 2025Mutares SE, the listed turnaround investor headquartered in Munich, delivered strong, strategically meaningful performance in the first nine months of 2025. In this comprehensive update, CIO Johannes Laumann provides investors with a transparent view of operational progress, portfolio dynamics, exit activity, and the outlook for year-end results.Strong Net Income Growth Driven by Transformation & ExitsStrong Net Income Growth Driven by Transformation & ExitsThe holding company has demonstrated a substantial increase in net income during the reporting period, reflecting Mutares' robust business model. This model involves acquiring underperforming companies, stabilizing operations, implementing deep restructuring programs, and ultimately exiting them at significant value creation.Laumann highlights that both supported the surge in profitability:solid operational improvements within major platform investments, andhigher exit activity and bargain-purchase effects from newly consolidated entities.These drivers underscore the scalability of the Mutares playbook and the maturity of the existing portfolio.Portfolio Expansion Across Four SegmentsPortfolio Expansion Across Four SegmentsDuring the first nine months of 2025, Mutares continued to diversify its portfolio across its four strategic segments, each with its unique investment opportunities:Automotive & Mobility – characterized by large industrial carve-outs, metal and plastics processing, and platform strategies aimed at operational consolidation.Engineering & Technology – benefiting from secular investment trends in energy infrastructure, power systems, and industrial equipment, driven by global re-industrialization and public-sector modernization.Infrastructure & Special Industries – supported by strong demand in logistics, road infrastructure, and defense-related applications, all of which remain high-priority investment categories in Europe.Goods & Services – stable, recurring cash-flow businesses such as industrial services, technical maintenance, and specialized workforce solutions.Across all segments, the company emphasises operational improvements through its 160-person in-house consulting and task force team — a key differentiator in the European turnaround landscape.Exit Pipeline Positioned for a Strong Q4Exit Pipeline Positioned for a Strong Q4A central theme of Laumann's 9M update is the robust exit pipeline, which is expected to contribute materially in the fourth quarter.Mutares traditionally delivers a disproportionate share of holding-company earnings near year-end, as exits crystallize value. The current pipeline includes:mature platform assets ready for divestment,strategic buyers engaged in advanced stages of negotiation, andselected IPO preparations where public markets offer an attractive valuation path.Laumann reiterates that Mutares remains disciplined in its approach to exits. Exits are executed only when the internal value-creation targets are met, not when the calendar dictates. This approach ensures that every exit is strategically sound and contributes to the company's long-term success.▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    BRAIN Biotech AG Deep Dive 2025 | AI-Driven Enzyme Discovery, U.S. Expansion, and Growth Strategy Explained

    BRAIN Biotech AG Deep Dive: Key TakeawaysIn this exclusive deep dive, Michael Schneiders, CFO of Brain Biotech AG, takes on the seven most frequently asked questions from institutional investors — offering clarity, conviction, and a forward-looking view on everything from AI-driven enzyme discovery to U.S. expansion, M&A, and the commercial pipeline within the BioIncubator portfolio.Let's unpack the key investor topics that matter most to understanding Brain Biotech's current strategy and its long-term value-creation potential.1. What are Enzymes, and Why Are They So Attractive?Enzymes are natural proteins that catalyze biochemical reactions, and Brain Biotech focuses on microbial enzymes with industrial and human applications. Why does this matter to investors? Because enzymes offer low-energy, biodegradable, and sustainable alternatives to chemical synthesis — making them key tools in the green industrial transformation.The global enzyme market stands at €6 billion, growing at mid-single-digit rates with strong margins. Consumers prefer natural enzyme-based solutions, especially in food, nutrition, and life sciences. Brain, with its unique position and strategic focus, is well-positioned to lead this trend.2. What Sets Brain Biotech Apart from Other Industrial Biotech Firms?Michael Schneiders emphasizes Brain's end-to-end platform—from discovery and AI-assisted enzyme design, to development, fermentation, and production. Few players can offer the full value chain. This integrated model serves three verticals:ProductsProprietary enzymes for food & life science.CDMOContract manufacturing for biopharma clients.CROCustom research in enzyme innovation.This makes Brain not just a supplier, but a strategic co-developer with its clients — increasing stickiness, value creation, and margin expansion.3. How Is AI Revolutionizing Enzyme Discovery at Brain?Brain's AI and machine learning platforms are now central to its enzyme innovation engine. Their proprietary platform, “MetXtra,” enables the discovery and synthetic design of novel enzymes, with 99% of the sequences unique to public databases.With bioinformatics, machine learning, and CRISPR gene editing, Brain is accelerating timelines from idea to prototype, cutting costs, and driving customer success. Their goal: design enzymes that don't yet exist in nature—customized for client needs.This digital-first approach is transforming Brain into a tech-enabled biotech innovator—and investors are taking notice.4. What Are Brain's Medium-Term Growth Targets, and What Role Does M&A Play?Brain's mid-term goal is to double enzyme segment sales through high-single-digit to low-double-digit organic growth. The addressable market for their core activities is approximately €2 billion — and with only €50 million in sales today, there's massive upside.Brain also aims to lift its adjusted EBITDA margin from 10% to 15%, unlocking operational leverage as scale increases.While organic growth is the priority, Brain remains opportunistic on M&A—with a successful track record including Biocatalysts, RareTech, and AnalytiCon Discovery. One more medium-sized acquisition (à la Biocatalysts) is planned within the next 5 years. ..▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/nvestor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    BRAIN Biotech AG Q1 2024/25: Key TakeawaysBRAIN Biotech 9M 2024/25 Financial Results Deep DivePresented by Michael Schneiders, CFO | seat11a.comBRAIN Biotech Accelerates Growth in Core Business While Strengthening BioIncubator PipelineIn the first nine months of fiscal year 2024/25, BRAIN Biotech AG delivered a robust operational performance marked by steady revenue growth in its core segment and significant progress in its innovation pipeline. CFO Michael Schneiders outlined the company's dual focus: scaling its BRAIN Biocatalysts division and commercialising projects within the BRAIN BioIncubator—its innovation engine for biotech breakthroughs.Solid Revenue Growth in Core Segment: BRAIN BiocatalystsBRAIN Biocatalysts—the heart of BRAIN Biotech's operations—continues to perform like a “Swiss army knife” of industrial biotech, demonstrating its versatility and adaptability. Revenue in this segment increased by 8.1% year-over-year in Q3, driven by strong product sales and increased utilization of large-scale fermenters, particularly at the Cardiff and US operations. While the baking ingredients sector faced some softness, other verticals remained resilient. The adjusted EBITDA margin continued to improve due to scale effects, a more favourable product mix, and disciplined cost management.The division also stands out for its fully integrated biotech platform: from discovery and strain development to industrial-scale production and sales. BRAIN serves the full enzyme value chain, offering tailor-made solutions as a Contract Research Organisation (CRO) and Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO/CDMO).Innovation Engine: BRAIN BioIncubatorThe BioIncubator division, which focuses on strategic participations and breakthrough biotech innovation, saw mixed performance in 9M 2024/25. While sales were softer due to the absence of milestone revenues from previous years and subdued order intake at AnalytiCon Discovery, significant strategic wins boosted the segment's outlook. These wins include a strategic partnership with Corbion (Amsterdam-based sustainable ingredient leader) to commercialize “Perillic Active,” a natural antimicrobial for food preservation, and the successful consolidation of Breatec minorities, realizing a book gain of € 1.4 million.One of the key factors contributing to our positive outlook is our strategic partnership with Corbion, a leading sustainable ingredient company based in Amsterdam. This partnership aims to commercialize “Perillic Active,” a natural antimicrobial for food preservation, which we believe will significantly enhance our product portfolio and market reach.Successful consolidation of Breatec minorities, realizing a book gain of €1.4 million.Strong cost control despite ongoing R&D investments and two months of Akribion Genomics integration.The company has €10.5 million in cash available, providing solid liquidity to drive further innovation.Mid-Term Targets: Scaling with PrecisionReaffirming its long-term strategy, BRAIN Biotech aims to double revenues in BRAIN Biocatalysts to €100 million over the next five years, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of 15% and R&D investments of 4–6% of group sales. This growth will be driven by a combination of factors, including the commercialisation of milestones achieved by Pharvaris and genome-editing technologies (e.g., Akribion Therapeutics), which are expected to generate upside potential through milestone payments and royalty income. In the BioIncubator, the company's focus will be on achieving commercialisation milestones and leveraging its strategic partnerships to fuel commercial upside.T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    eDreams ODIGEO's Q1 2025 Key TakeawayseDreams ODIGEO Q1 FY 2026 – Executive SummaryPresented by CFO David Elizaga on seat11a.comStrong Start to FY 2026 with Subscription Model at CoreeDreams ODIGEO kicked off its financial year 2026 with a powerful performance that once again reinforces the strength of its subscription-based travel model. CFO David Elizaga presented a highly confident outlook, supported by solid subscriber growth, improved profitability, and continued strategic execution.Prime: The Growth EngineAt the heart of this success is Prime, eDreams' unique travel subscription service. With 7.5 million subscribers now onboard, Prime has become the company's core growth engine. In the first quarter alone, the firm added over 200,000 new subscribers, reaching the upper end of their guidance.This strong growth is not just about volume—it's also about quality: renewals continue to increase as the member base matures, making the overall model more cost-efficient and highly profitable over time.Financial MomentumThis growth in Prime has translated directly into substantial earnings momentum. The company delivered strong increases in both adjusted net income and EBITDA, building on the gains seen in the previous year. As Prime now accounts for around three-quarters of total revenue, eDreams is less exposed to volatile travel pricing and more focused on predictable, high-margin recurring income.Operational Leverage and Strategic TransformationElizaga emphasized that the transformation of eDreams ODIGEO from a transactional to a subscription-based travel business is well ahead of schedule. Operating leverage is improving as acquisition costs drop per subscriber, and profitability continues to scale in line with revenue growth. This demonstrates the power of Prime to reshape not only the company's income structure but the entire economics of travel booking in Europe and beyond.Capital Markets UpdateFrom a capital markets perspective, the company also launched a new €20 million share buyback programme, underlining its commitment to shareholders. This follows the near completion of the previous buyback effort, and it comes at a time when liquidity in the stock has markedly improved.FY 2026 OutlookLooking forward, the full-year EBITDA guidance of €215 to €220 million has been reaffirmed, representing a near doubling compared to the previous year. Management also remains confident in hitting its Prime subscriber target of 8.25 million by the end of FY 2026, with the long-term ambition to grow the subscriber base by approximately 10% annually.Conclusion by CFO David ElizagaElizaga concluded his presentation by highlighting the company's position as a pioneer in the travel tech space. The model is not only working—it is accelerating. With Prime's scale, efficiency, and customer loyalty on the rise, eDreams ODIGEO is entering a new phase of growth, profitability, and shareholder value creation.▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

Wacker Chemie AG maintains stability despite the challenges, which is reassuring for our stakeholders.Quarterly Financial OverviewSales for the first quarter totalled €1.52 billion, a decrease of 16% year-on-year. This reflects weaker demand and lower prices in several product areas, particularly polysilicon and silicone specialities. However, EBITDA came in at €226 million, with a solid margin of 14.9%, a testament to Wacker's strong operational discipline and cost control, instilling confidence in our stakeholders.Net income reached €74 million, down from €179 million in Q1 2024, primarily due to lower volumes and pricing. However, the report also highlights positive aspects, such as free cash flow turning positive at €44 million, driven by strict working capital management and reduced investment spending, instilling optimism in our stakeholders about Wacker Chemie's future.Segment Performance BreakdownJörg Hoffmann breaks down the segment performance:WACKER SILICONES, a significant contributor to our overall sales, generated €623 million in sales, down 19% year-on-year. The decline was primarily due to volume pressure in standard applications, which had a noticeable impact on our overall performance, though high-value speciality products remained more stable.WACKER POLYSILICON reported €417 million in revenue, with EBITDA impacted by falling market prices and higher energy costs. Nevertheless, cost efficiencies helped limit the downside.WACKER BIOSOLUTIONS remained a bright spot, showing slight growth and contributing to group resilience through its diversified customer base.WACKER POLYMERS also declined due to lower construction industry demand, though margins held up better than expected.Outlook and Strategic GuidanceDespite market headwinds, Wacker Chemie confirmed its full-year 2025 guidance, expecting:Group sales of €6.4 to €6.8 billionEBITDA of €800 to €1,000 millionCapEx around €650 million, with a focus on strategic projects and sustainability initiativesFinancial Strength and Sustainability InvestmentsHoffmann highlights the company's financial strength, noting a net cash position of €424 million and a robust balance sheet that enables continued investment in R&D, capacity expansion, and energy transition efforts.Wacker is also accelerating its sustainability roadmap, including projects to reduce emissions, implement circular material flows, and expand its green energy sourcing.Conclusion: Stability and Innovation Through Market CyclesIn summary, Q1 2025 showed that Wacker Chemie navigates a tough environment with resilience, maintains margins, generates cash, and stays fully committed to long-term growth and innovation.▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    DEUTZ AG Q1 2025: Key TakeawaysPresented by IR Mark SchneiderIn this concise and data-rich quarterly update, Mark Schneider, Head of Investor Relations of DEUTZ AG, presents the key financial highlights and operational performance for Q1 2025, offering insights into how the company maintains momentum amid ongoing macroeconomic volatility.Stable Start to 2025DEUTZ AG, a leading manufacturer of innovative drive systems, commenced 2025 with a robust and stable first quarter, bolstered by the strength of its service business and operational discipline. This positive start sets a promising tone for the rest of the year.Q1 Revenue and Order IntakeThe company posted revenue of €474.3 million, representing a slight decline of 3.8% year-on-year, largely attributable to a normalization in engine demand following an exceptionally strong prior-year period. However, the impact was partially offset by ongoing growth in the service segment, which remains a strategic priority for DEUTZ and continues to deliver attractive margins.Despite the slight dip in new orders, which came in at €465.1 million, DEUTZ remains steadfast in its full-year outlook. The company's healthy order backlog and sustained demand in key regions instil confidence in its ability to weather market fluctuations and maintain its growth trajectory.Free Cash Flow and Operational EfficiencyOne of the quarter's standout achievements is the significant improvement in free cash flow, which rose to €27.3 million, compared to a negative figure in the same quarter last year. This reflects tighter working capital management, optimized inventory levels, and prudent capital expenditures.Profitability and EBIT MarginIn terms of profitability, DEUTZ reported an EBIT margin before exceptional items of 4.8%, slightly below the 5.0% seen in Q1 2024. This was mainly due to shifts in the product mix and volume effects. IR Mark Schneider emphasizes that this is well within expectations and consistent with seasonal trends in the company's order intake and production cycles.Dual Transformation StrategyDEUTZ continues to invest in its dual transformation strategy:Drive diversification, focusing strongly on alternative powertrains, including hydrogen and electric solutions.Service expansion aimed at building a more resilient and margin-rich revenue base.2025 Guidance and Strategic OutlookCFO Schneider reaffirms DEUTZ's commitment to achieving its 2025 guidance, which includes:Stable revenue in the range of €1.8 to €1.9 billionAn EBIT margin of at least 5% before exceptional itemsPositive free cash flow for the full yearHe also highlights that DEUTZ is well-positioned to navigate inflationary pressures and supply chain risks, thanks to its global supplier network and continuous improvement in operational processes.Conclusion: Operational Resilience and Strategic ExecutionIn closing, Mark Schneider reiterates that Q1 2025 performance reflects operational resilience, strategic focus, and a balanced approach to growth and cost control. As DEUTZ continues its transformation journey, it remains on track to deliver sustainable value for shareholders, customers, and employees.▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is intended solely for informational purposes and does not constitute investment advice.

    Amadeus Fire AG Deep Dive: Q&AAmadeus Fire Group: Investor Deep Dive into Strategy, Growth, and Digital InnovationExclusive Insights from JörgIn this exclusive investor deep dive, Jörg from Amadeus Fire Group addresses the most commonly asked questions by financial analysts and institutional investors. The video in English explores the company's current performance, strategic direction, challenges in the personnel services and training segments, and the long-term vision driving value creation.Macroeconomic Outlook and German Business SentimentThe conversation opens with a macroeconomic reflection on Germany's business sentiment. Jörg underlines the pressing need for a positive economic impulse to restore confidence swiftly. He identifies potential triggers, such as geopolitical stability (like a peace deal in Ukraine), renewed free trade partnerships with the US, tax reliefs, or an uptick in GDP, which are crucial for lifting Germany's sluggish mood.Operational Challenges and Segment PerformanceDespite these challenges, Amadeus Fire Group remains resilient and is actively working on strategies to overcome these obstacles. Moving into operational insights, Jörg dissects the decline in margins across both segments. In personnel services, conversion rates have deteriorated due to increasing client demands for ‘optimal' rather than just ‘suitable' candidates. Lengthier negotiations, higher candidate reluctance to switch jobs due to probationary uncertainty, and extended sales cycles have all impacted profitability. The team's focus on individual mandates has reduced the capacity to handle multiple assignments concurrently.Concave College and the Government Training PlatformAmadeus Fire subsidiary Concave College faced a visibility challenge in the training segment due to the algorithmic limitations of the new government-backed training platform (formerly Coenet, now “meine-weiterbildung.de”). The system now restricts each training provider to 4,000-course listings, disproportionately affecting larger players like Concave. This visibility bottleneck is the primary reason behind the lower booking volumes in 2024 compared to the stronger growth seen at GFN (+25%), which had fewer courses listed.Artificial Intelligence as a Productivity EnablerFrom a technological perspective, Artificial Intelligence is not viewed as a threat but as a significant productivity enabler. AI accelerates candidate search in personnel services, seamlessly integrates into the new Microsoft-based CRM system, and enhances recruiting and sales workflows. The CRM upgrade is being rolled out across all locations, with full implementation scheduled by the end of June 2024.AI in Personalized LearningIn the training space, AI is expected to revolutionize personalized learning. Tailored digital courses will adapt in real-time based on individual learner profiles, behaviours, and eye movement. Each learner will receive customized content, improving retention, engagement, and outcomes.▶️ Other videos:Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/T&CThis publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.
