Q2/2012 – LMH Segment

Due to the high demand in the new truck business and the services business from Germany as well as from China and the Eastern European countries, the LMH segment increased its revenue by 8%, from €726 million in Q2/2011 to €786 million in Q2/2012.

In Q2/2012, Non-recurring items amounted to positive €6 million primarily resulting from the revaluation of our 49% equity investment in Linde Creighton and the remeasurement of the purchase price obligations in connection with the remaining 51% of outstanding shares. In Q2/2011, EBIT had included Non-recurring items of positive €14 million, net, which were also related to remeasurements of shares in UK dealers and partly being offset by relocation costs and severance payments.

Adjusted EBIT grew by €8 million to €89 million, compared to €81 million in Q2/2011. Adjusted EBIT margin grew correspondingly from 11.2% in Q2/2011 to 11.3% in Q2/2012.

Q1-2/2012 – LMH Segment

LMH Segment: Revenue

Due to the strong first quarter, the LMH segment increased its revenue by 12% in Q1-2/2012 from €1,387 million in Q1-2/2011 to €1,560 million in Q1-2/2012. The segment considerably benefited from the high demand for LMH’s product and service offerings, especially from Germany, Eastern Europe and China.

LMH Segment: EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

The LMH segment’s EBIT increased from €141 million in Q1-2/2011 by €26 million to €167 million in Q1-2/2012. In Q1-2/2012, EBIT was affected by Non-recurring items of positive €12 million, primarily as a result of a €12 million one-time profit from the revaluation of the equity investment in Linde Creighton and the remeasurement of the purchase price obligations in connection with the remaining 51% of outstanding shares. A €3 million profit generated through property sales in Basingstoke was largely offset by follow-up costs due to footprint measures. In Q1-2/2011, Non-recurring gains had been at €12 million and related to positive effects from remeasurements of shares in UK dealers, mainly in Linde Sterling, as well. KION acquisition items in Q1-2/2012 amounted to €14 million after €13 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBIT increased by €28 million to €170 million in Q1-2/2012, compared to €142 million in Q1-2/2011. Adjusted EBIT margin rose correspondingly from 10.2% in Q1-2/2011 to 10.9% in Q1-2/2012. The Adjusted EBITDA in the LMH segment amounted to €257 million and the Adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.5% in Q1-2/2012, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of €227 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.4% in Q1-2/2011.

Q2/2012 – STILL Segment

STILL Segment: Revenue

Due to the stable demand for new trucks and services in Germany, Western and Eastern Europe in Q2/2012, STILL generated revenue of €417 million compared to €416 million in Q2/2011.

STILL Segment: EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

The STILL segment’s EBIT increased by €6 million to €28 million in Q2/2012 due to efficiency gains and cost savings. In Q2/2012, EBIT was impacted by Non-recurring items of positive €2 million, mainly due to an adjustment of provisions for restructuring expenses and relocation costs in connection with the closure of our production plants in Montataire, France, and Bari, Italy. Non-recurring items for Q2/2011 totalling negative €2 million had been related to the relocation of product lines within Germany, severance payments and expenses with respect to the combination of STILL and OM. In addition, KION acquisition items remained stable at €2 million in Q2/2012 and in Q2/2011.

Adjusted EBIT increased by €2 million to €27 million, compared to €26 million in Q2/2011. Adjusted EBIT margin grew from 6.2% in Q2/2011 to 6.5% in Q2/2012. Including amortization and depreciation, the STILL segment achieved an Adjusted EBITDA of €55 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.1%, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA of €52 million and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 12.5% in Q2/2011.

Q1-2/2012 – STILL Segment

STILL Segment: Revenue

The segment’s performance in its German, Eastern European and Brazilian markets in Q1-2/2012 led to a slight increase in the STILL segment’s revenue by 2% to €829 million, compared to €816 million in Q1-2/2011.

STILL Segment: EBIT, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA

Backed by growing revenue and driven by efficiency gains and cost savings, the EBIT of the STILL segment increased by 29% or €11 million to €48 million in Q1-2/2012 from €37 million in Q1-2/2011. In Q1-2/2012, EBIT was impacted by Non-recurring items of negative €2 million, mainly relating to the concentration of production facilities in Europe and the closure of our plants in Montataire, France, and Bari, Italy. Non-recurring items for Q1-2/2011 totalling negative €4 million had mainly been related to relocation costs, severance payments and expenses for the combination of the STILL and OM brands. In addition, KION acquisition items amounted to negative €3 million in Q1-2/2012 and remained unchanged compared to Q1-2/2011.

Adjusted EBIT grew to €53 million, compared to €45 million in Q1-2/2011. Adjusted EBIT margin grew correspondingly from 5.5% in Q1-2/2011 to 6.4% in Q1-2/2012.

Segment Other: Revenue

The segment Other increased its order intake and revenues by €6 million to €59 million in Q2/2012 from €53 million in Q2/2011.
