Date 17/02/2020

Deutsche Börse AG published its preliminary results for the fourth quarter and the full year 2019 on Monday. The Group generated net revenue of €2,936.0 million in 2019 – a 6 per cent increase, with around 5 per cent attributable to secular factors and 1 per cent to consolidation effects. The cyclical environment was largely neutral in 2019. At €1,129.5 million, operating costs were up 8 per cent year-on-year, after adjusting the previous year’s figures for the impact of IFRS 16. The increase was largely due to higher levels of investment (especially for growth initiatives), as well as consolidation effects. Excluding consolidation effects, adjusted operating costs were up by 5 per cent. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) amounted to €1,813.2 million. Adjusted net profit for the period attributable to Deutsche Börse shareholders (“net profit”) increased by 10 per cent – as planned – to €1,105.6 million. Basic earnings per share, adjusted for non-recurring effects, rose by 11 per cent to €6.03.
