CEO of New Work SE Petra von Strombeck

Letter to our shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

Relatively early in the year - and with relevant indices and indicators still ­signaling an unbroken recovery in the economy and labor market now that the COVID years are finally behind us - we were forced to face up to the fact that the market was deteriorating rapidly. Companies appeared increasingly hesitant to purchase our HR solutions, putting pressure on new business. While some observers were surprised by this development given how healthy the market still appeared to be, the German economy is now generally acknowledged to be in recession as the impact of various challenges - from inflation and energy prices to supply bottlenecks - become apparent wherever you look. Although the shortage of skilled workers is still one of the hottest topics, companies are currently prioritizing a variety of other issues. With this in mind, we were quick to update our guidance. While this is not good news, it is particularly important for us to communicate openly and transparently with capital market participants like you in challenging times.

We can see the effects of the recession in our financial key performance ­indicators for the first half of 2023, with total pro forma revenues remaining at the previous year's level at just under €152 million. Our pro forma EBITDA fell by 24 percent to €41 million, while pro forma net income for the year declined to €18 million.
