Prior year figures were adjusted due to a reclassification of customs refund claims between other current financial assets and other current assets.

The increase in ‘Other investments’ results from the investment in securities for variable compensation components from long-term financial assets due to its maturity, as well as an increase of the fair value by € 17 million, which results from the stock price development.

The increase in earn-out components reflects the reclassification to current financial assets due to expected payments within the next 12 months. These Notes contain further information about earn-out components.  SEE NOTE 03  SEE NOTE 28
