EQS-News: Netfonds AG publishes audited annual financial statements for 2023

PRESS RELEASE

Netfonds AG publishes audited annual financial statements for 2023

Hamburg, 27 May 2024 - At its meeting to approve the financial statements, the Supervisory Board adopted the consolidated financial statements for 2023, presented by the Management Board of Netfonds AG (ISIN: DE000A1MME74) and approved by the auditor. There have been changes compared to the preliminary figures published on 5 March 2024. This was firstly due to the valuation and correction of a negative one-off effect in the wealth management segment. Secondly, due to the equity consolidation of the investment in NSI Asset AG. Both effects were not relevant to cash flow in the past year and correspond to a cumulative amount of EUR -1.70 million.

As already published, Netfonds AG achieved gross consolidated sales of EUR 192.9 million in the past financial year (previous year: EUR 176.4 million). Net sales after deduction of commission expenses increased to EUR 36.6 million (previous year: EUR 33.6 million). The Group's EBITDA totalled EUR 4.9 million and was therefore below the previous year's figure of EUR 6.5 million. EBIT at Group level totalled EUR 1.3 million. The Netfonds Group achieved a consolidated profit after tax of Euro -0.28 million. Annual net income of Euro 0.25 million was reported at Netfonds AG level.

Due to the positive business performance, the Management Board and Supervisory Board of Netfonds AG have decided to once again propose the payment of a dividend of EUR 0.25 per share (previous year: EUR 0.25 per share) at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 27 August 2024.

The approved and audited annual financial statements and the consolidated financial statements of Netfonds AG will be available on the company's website in due course.

Based on the audited business figures, the most important key figures were as follows:
 
Outlook on the current financial year 

Based on the analyses of the first quarter of the 2024 financial year, which has already been completed, the Management Board of Netfonds AG expects significant double-digit growth in both the investment and insurance segments. Cumulative assets already exceeded the EUR 25 billion mark as at 31 March 2024 and are therefore around 20% higher than in the previous year. We therefore expect an increase in net sales of more than 10% for the 2024 financial year, as well as a sustained increase in the operating result.

Netfonds AG will publish its figures for the first quarter of this year on 30 May 2024 after the close of trading and will also present a more specific forecast for the current financial year and the Group's mid-term outlook.
