München (pta017/23.03.2023/10:00 UTC+1)

• Significant increase in operating performance to around EUR 206 million
• Group order backlog at historic high of EUR 144 million
• Continuation of the placement of the MS Industrie bond 22/27

Based on the preliminary consolidated key data for the financial year 2022, the MS Industrie Group achieved an operating performance according to HGB (German GAAP) of around EUR 206 million – this corresponds to an increase of more than 25% compared to the previous year. As of December 31, 2022, the order backlog of the group amounted to EUR 144 million and at the same time represents a historic high. The publication of the complete and audited financial data according to IFRS is planned for the end of April 2023, as in previous years.

Dr. Andreas Aufschnaiter, CEO of MS Industrie AG: "The increase of 25% in operating performance last year shows the good market position of MS Industrie. Our divisions, Powertrain and Ultrasonic, are both developing very well. This can be seen from the Group's outstanding order situation over the past year. We are looking to 2023 with optimism."

The continuation of the strong organic growth requires a longer-term orientation of the financing structure of the MS Industrie Group. Therefore, the Management Board will continue the placement of the "6.25% MS Industrie Bond 2022/27" (ISIN: DE000A30VS72, WKN: A30VS7, issued in October 2022) in the coming months. "We will continue on our growth path in the coming years and offer investors an attractive investment opportunity with this bond," says Dr. Aufschnaiter.
