- Profit before taxes (€ +923 million): Noticeable improvement and return to positive territory (first half of 2025: significant loss before taxes).
- Taxes on income (€ –16 million): Significant additional burdens at an overall low level:
- The decline in deferred tax income was predominantly due to the omission of an income not relating to the period in the first half of 2025.
- Actual taxes on income rose significantly and also mainly related to foreign Group companies (including at DB Cargo).
- Net profit (continuing operations; € +907 million): Noticeable improvement and also back into positive territory.
