1) Figure for the first half of 2024 adjusted due to the sale of DB Schenker.

  • Profit/loss before taxes (–52.2%/€ +828 million): Noticeable improvement, but still negative.
  • Income taxes (–94.1%/€ +16 million): Improvement at a low overall level. Both the increase in deferred tax income (mainly from the reversal of deferred tax liabilities) and the development of current income taxes (mainly relating to foreign Group companies) contributed to this.
  • Net profit/loss (continuing operations) (–52.6%/€ +844 million): Noticeable improvement, but still negative.
  • Net profit/loss (€ +8,124 million): Very significant increase, almost entirely due to the positive non-recurring effect from the gain on disposal in connection with the deconsolidation of DB Schenker (€ +7.3 billion). Partially opposing effects due to the fact that DB Schenker was only included in the consolidated interim financial statements for four months in the first half of 2025.
