Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA: Outlook 2023 – Fresenius advances with deconsolidation of Fresenius Medical Care by changing its legal form into a German stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft)
|
Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA / Key word(s): Forecast/Strategic Company Decision Fresenius has set the strategic course for simplifying the Group structure. As part of a comprehensive range of initiatives, the management board of Fresenius Management SE has also put in place a new financial framework. For 2023, Fresenius now provides full-year guidance for organic sales growth and operating income (EBIT). For 2023, Fresenius expects Group organic revenue (base 2022: €40,840 million) to grow in a low- to mid-single-digit percentage range. Group constant currency EBIT before special items (base 2022: €3,727 million*) is expected to remain broadly flat or decline up to a high-single-digit percentage rate. The range of the decrease compared to the previous year is mainly due to a challenging business environment at Fresenius Medical Care. Excluding Fresenius Medical Care, the Group constant currency EBIT before special items (base 2022: €2,187 million) is expected to remain broadly flat or decline up to a mid-single-digit percentage rate. The responsible corporate bodies of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA have resolved to advance with the deconsolidation of its subsidiary Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA ("FMC") by way of a change of the legal form of FMC into a German stock corporation (“Aktiengesellschaft”). It is intended to resolve on the change of the legal form in an Extraordinary General Meeting to be convened by FMC for the beginning of the third quarter of 2023. The conversion is expected to become effective by the end of the 2023 financial year. * Before special items; In 2022, operating income was supported by EUR 277 million (at current currency) of U.S. Provider Relief Funding (PRF). There is no additional governmental support assumed for 2023. To provide a comparable basis for the 2023 earnings outlook, the 2022 basis is adjusted accordingly.
