In absolute terms, the Group-wide average compensation of employees on a full-time equivalent basis increased slightly to EUR 53 thousand in fiscal year 2024 (2023: EUR 52 thousand), reflecting salary increases which were partly offset by lower bonus payments.

2

In absolute terms, the Group-wide average compensation of employees on a full-time equivalent basis remained broadly stable in fiscal year 2023, amounting to EUR 52 thousand (2022: EUR 52 thousand), as salary increases were broadly offset by lower bonus payments and currency effects.

3

The increase largely reflected salary increases against the backdrop of the high level of global inflation, measures implemented in fiscal year 2021 in connection with COVID-19 to reduce working hours and personnel costs, as well as currency effects.
