KGaA (ISIN DE000A0JK2A8) published its annual report for the record year 2017 on today's date. It shows total consolidated revenues of EUR 4,047.3 million (2016: EUR 2,892.3 million) and annualized consolidated revenues from continued operations of EUR 3,612.7 million (2016: EUR 2,067.9 million). EBITDA of the combined Group at the record level of EUR 627.7 million characterized by numerous transactions Overall, AURELIUS generated record EBITDA of the combined Group of EUR 627.7 million in financial year 2017. This figure includes income from the reversal of negative goodwill arising on capital consolidation ("bargain purchase" income) from the companies acquired in 2017 in the amount of EUR 447.1 million (2016: EUR 69.7 million). The bulk of this bargain purchase income can be attributed to the acquisition of the European business activities of the US-based Office Depot Group ("Office Depot Europe"). Furthermore, the Danish do-it-yourself (DIY) retail chain Silvan and the Swiss animal feed business of the US-based Cargill Group, now trading under the name Granovit, were purchased in financial year 2017. The AURELIUS group subsidiary Calumet Photographic acquired the online retailer Wex Photographic as part of an add-on transaction in order to strengthen its own business. The majority of the French catamaran manufacturer Privilège Marine SAS was also acquired, leading to substantial synergies with the AURELIUS group company HanseYachts. The Conaxess Trade Group purchased Galleberg AS, one of Norway's leading distributors of brand items to grocery, convenience, gastronomy, health and lifestyle retail. EBITDA of the combined Group also includes the positive contribution to earnings from company sales in the amount of EUR 193.9 million (2016: EUR 43.9 million). Operating EBITDA at the previous year's level despite sales of profitable companies At EUR 114.9 million, operating EBITDA reached the previous year's level (2016: EUR 114.0 million), despite the purchase of not-yet profitable and the sale of profitable Group subsidiaries, showing that the measures implemented by AURELIUS' operational function specialists for the reorientation of Group subsidiaries are taking effect. Net asset value of the portfolio audited for the first time: EUR 1,541.0 million (+1.3% over Q3 2017) The net asset value of AURELIUS Group companies was presented in the combined management report and was therefore included in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the first time this year. It amounted to EUR 1,541.0 million as of December 31, 2017 and was therefore 1.3 percent higher than as of September 30, 2017 (see the table at the end of this press release).
