These are realized because of the expected results at the end of the current financial year, mainly due to global disparities triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as necessary adjustments to medium-term earnings expectations at these companies. The non-recurring write-offs are neither cash-effective nor affect EBITDA, but do affect EBIT. Due to the improvements in the economic environment, the Management Board currently expects an EBITDA in a range of EUR 800 million to EUR 1 billion for the entire business year 2020/21, assuming no further significant restrictions in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, such as "lockdowns", by the authorities.
