Grünwald, August 10, 2023 – AURELIUS Equity Opportunities SE & Co. KGaA (AURELIUS; ISIN DE000A0JK2A8) has published its consolidated semiannual financial statements for the first half of 2023. AURELIUS generated total consolidated revenues of EUR 1,498.9 million (H1 2022: EUR 1,591.9 million). Annualized consolidated revenues from continued operations amounted to EUR 2,504.1 million (H1 2022: EUR 2,784.8 million).

At EUR 135.0 million, the operating EBITDA generated in the first half of financial year 2023 was nearly unchanged from the year-ago comparison period (H1 2022: EUR 127.6 million). Influenced by a smaller effect from the deconsolidation of Other assets sold and valuation adjustments of Other assets, the non-operating component of EBITDA amounted to EUR 89.7 million (H1 2022: EUR 13.7 million EUR). Consequently, the EBITDA of the combined Group came to EUR 224.7 million (H1 2022: EUR 141.3 million). At EUR 324.0 million, the Group’s cash and cash equivalents were little changed from the end of last year (December 31, 2022: EUR 331.5 million).
