Continental AG / Key word(s): Quarter Results Continental Announces Preliminary Key Figures for the Second Quarter of 2022 20-Jul-2022 / 10:30 CET/CEST Disclosure of an inside information acc. to Article 17 MAR of the Regulation (EU) No 596/2014, transmitted by DGAP - a service of EQS Group AG. The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

Based on preliminary and unaudited data, key financial figures of the second quarter of fiscal 2022 are as follows:

Consolidated sales of the Continental Group were €9.4 billion (consensus: €9.2 billion) and the adjusted EBIT margin was 4.4% (consensus: 4.2%).

Sales in the Automotive group sector amounted to €4.3 billion (consensus: €4.2 billion) and the adjusted EBIT margin was -2.3% (consensus: -2.3%).

Sales in the Tires group sector were €3.4 billion (consensus: €3.4 billion) and the adjusted EBIT margin was 13.8% (consensus: 13.6%).

Sales in the ContiTech group sector amounted to €1.6 billion (consensus: €1.6 billion) and the adjusted EBIT margin was 4.9% (consensus 5.7%).

The adjusted free cash flow for the Continental Group amounted to -€687 million (consensus: -€225 million).

Furthermore, the company recognized in the Automotive group sector impairments for goodwill as well as for property, plant and equipment assets totaling €370 million. These non-cash impairments are mainly due to the update of accounting valuation assumptions. Higher interest rates led to a higher discounting rate (pre-tax WACC) used in the goodwill impairment test. This amounted to 12.8% at the end of the second quarter, after 10.7% on December 31, 2021.

Related to our operations in Russia, assets worth €75 million were also subject to impairment due to the additional imposed sanctions. This is mainly attributable to the Tires group sector.

The ContiTech group sector recognized restructuring expenses of €63 million, mainly for its Mobile Fluid Systems business area.

The Continental Group confirms its outlook for fiscal 2022 published on May 11, 2022.

The half-year financial report for the first half of 2022 will be published on August 9, 2022.

“Adjusted EBIT”, “adjusted free cash flow”, and “WACC” are defined in the Glossary of Financial Terms on page 24/25 of the 2021 Annual Report, which is available at www.continental-ir.com.

A missing turbine that Moscow says has caused the Nord Stream 1 pipeline to pump less gas to Europe is stuck in transit in Germany because Russia has so far not given the go-ahead to transport it back, two people familiar with the matter said. The turbine, which usually operates at the Russian Portovaya compressor station, had been undergoing maintenance in Canada but was flown back to Cologne, Germany, on July 17 by logistics firm Challenge Group, one of the people said. It is currently unclear when the turbine can be returned, the people said, adding this could still take days or even weeks.
