Key figures as we use and understand them
Our strategy is aimed at sustained growth and value creation for all stakeholders. We use financial and non-financial performance indicators consistantly and pervasively for management and control purposes. These include figures and measures determined in accordance with the »International Financial Reporting Standards« (IFRS) and which may be considered as being »Alternative Performance Measures«. Nur in wenigen Ausnahmefällen verwenden wir zusätzlich auch bereinigte Kennzahlen.
