The company’s revenues grew by 23.8% in the same period, with adjusted EBITDA of €43.0 million remaining approximately on par with the previous year. IT security specialist DTS grew revenues by 39.5% to €81.5 million in the first nine months and is thus heading for €100.0 million in annual revenues.

The segment’s biggest growth driver was the e-mobility specialist Aumann, which grew revenues by 31.8% to €150.4 million in the first nine months.

With an equity ratio of 68.5%, MBB considers itself well equipped for both further growth and macroeconomic challenges. Overall, the Group’s liquidity amounted to €443.0 million and net liquidity of €359.9 million at the end of September, of which €340.1 million was attributable to the holding company MBB SE. The decline in liquidity since the beginning of the year is due to a largely temporary build-up of working capital, which should return to normal levels by the end of the year. The decrease in liquidity at the level of the holding company MBB SE is attributable to a large share buy-back, the increase in the shareholding in Aumann, the value development of securities, and the dividend paid. Due to the encouraging business performance in the first nine months and a positive outlook for the fourth quarter, MBB is increasing its revenue forecast for the current financial year from more than €740 million to more than €800 million and confirming the forecast EBITDA margin of at least 10%. The MBB Group will achieve a correspondingly higher adjusted EBITDA in the financial year 2022. The full half-year report is available at www.mbb.com.
