Dr. Ing. h.c. F. ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG (ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG), Stuttgart, announced today preliminary figures for the financial year 2024 and key figures for the financial year 2025.

Against this background, the Management Board of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ (ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE) has updated its assumptions previously used in the preliminary valuation models (see ad-hoc announcement from ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE dated December 13, 2024) regarding the future economic development of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG.

Based on preliminary assessments, ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE now assumes the expected impairment of the carrying amount of the investment in ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG in the expected range from minus 2.5 billion euros to minus 3.5 billion euros (previously: minus 1 billion euros to minus 2 billion euros) in the consolidated balance sheet of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE. As a result of the changes at ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG, it is also anticipated that the expected impairment of the carrying amount of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE's investment in Volkswagen AG in the consolidated balance sheet of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE, while maintaining the previous range of minus 7 billion euros to minus 20 billion euros, will rather tend towards the lower end of the range of minus 20 billion euros.

A finalization of the impairment tests of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE can take place at the earliest upon the preparation of the annual and consolidated financial statements of Volkswagen AG and ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG.

The expected impairment loss in the consolidated financial statements of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE in relation  to ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ AG will also have an impact on the annual financial statements of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE under German commercial law, however to a lower extent.

The expected impairment losses at the level of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE or the ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE Group will not have a cash effect. Net debt of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE Group as of December 31, 2024 is expected to amount to roughly 5.2 billion euros, thus remaining within the projected range.

The Management Board of ΒιΆΉΒγΑΔ SE continues to assume that a dividend will be distributed for the 2024 financial year.
