The order backlog until 2024 rose slightly since the end of March 2018 amounting to EUR 1.47 billion as of June 30, 2018. <\/p>\n<p>Sven Schulz, CEO of AKASOL: \u201cIn the first half of 2018, AKASOL showed the sales growth we announced in connection with the IPO. Even before the start of series production at our Langen plant, we had already generated more than 60% of the respective total annual sales for fiscal years 2016 and 2017 in the first six months of the current year. That indicates how strongly demand is rising for high-performance battery systems for buses and e-commercial vehicles. The fact that Daimler EvoBus commissioned us to develop the next generation of battery systems even before the start of series production underlines our outstanding and technologically leading market position.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>For the successful IPO of AKASOL on June 29, 2018, IPO-related one-time expenses of EUR 2.2 million were incurred in the first half of 2018, including for legal and transaction consulting as well as auditing services. Without these expenses, AKASOL achieved positive adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of EUR 1.4 million (H1 2017: EUR 1.0 million) and positive adjusted EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) of EUR 1.2 million (H1 2017: EUR 0.7 million). The adjusted EBIT margin (as a percentage of sales) was 12.5% (H1 2017: 10.5%). <\/p>\n<p>Costs of materials rose to EUR 3.9 million in the first half of 2018 (H1 2017: EUR 2.6 million) as a result of the growth in sales and preparations for series production at the Langen plant. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBIT in the first half of 2018 were also affected by the scheduled increase in personnel in view of the start of series production in the third quarter of 2018. As of June 30, 2018, AKASOL employed 116 permanent employees (June 30, 2017: 82). As a result, personnel expenses rose from EUR 2.3 million in the previous year to EUR 2.8 million in the first half of 2018, while the personnel expense ratio fell slightly from 33.0% in the previous year to 30.2% due to the disproportionately low increase in personnel expenses compared to sales. <\/p>\n<p>As a result of the capital increase in connection with the IPO, the equity ratio increased to 86.6% (March 31, 2018: 11.6%). <\/p>\n<p>Dr. Curt Philipp Lorber, CFO of AKASOL: \u201cWe are poised to start series production for Daimler and a Scandinavian bus and truck maker at our plant in Langen in the third quarter, as announced. We are also already looking closely at sites for our plant in the US and our research and development center in Hesse in order to quickly achieve initial success in these projects after having strengthened our capital base by going public in late June.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>AKASOL intends to use the proceeds from the IPO of approximately EUR 100 million to double its production capacity at the plant in Langen, Germany, to expand into the US by establishing a production site in Michigan, to invest in further test and validation facilities and for research and development. <\/p>\n<p>For the full year 2018, the Management Board of AKASOL AG forecasts sales between EUR 22 million and EUR 24 million and an adjusted EBIT margin of around 7%. <\/p>\n<p>The full report for the first half of 2018 will be available for download on the website https:\/\/www.akasol.com\/en\/financial-reports later today.<\/p>\n<p>Contact:<br \/>\ncometis AG, Georg Grie\u00dfmann<br \/>\nPhone: +49 &#8211; (0)611 &#8211; 20 58 55 61 | EMail: griessmann@dev.cometis.de <\/p>\n<p>About AKASOL:<br \/>\nAKASOL is a leading German manufacturer of high-performance lithium-ion battery systems for buses, commercial vehicles, rail vehicles, industrial vehicles, marine and stationary applications.

August 2018 \u2013 Die AKASOL AG (\u201eAKASOL\u201c), ein f\u00fchrender\u00a0deutscher Hersteller von Hochleistungs-Lithium-Ionen-Batteriesystemen f\u00fcr\u00a0Busse, Nutzfahrzeuge, Schienenfahrzeuge, Industriefahrzeuge, Schiffe und\u00a0station\u00e4re Anwendungen, ist im ersten Halbjahr 2018 wie erwartet weiter gewachsen. <\/strong>\r\n\r\nDie Umsatzerl\u00f6se lagen mit 9,3 Mio. EUR um 33,1% \u00fcber dem Wert des\u00a0Vorjahreszeitraums (H1 2017: 7,0 Mio. EUR). Der Auftragsbestand bis zum Jahr 2024 ist seit Ende M\u00e4rz 2018 leicht angestiegen und lag zum Stichtag 30. Juni 2018 bei 1,47 Mrd. EUR. Sven Schulz, CEO von AKASOL: \u201eAKASOL hat im ersten Halbjahr 2018 das im Rahmen des B\u00f6rsengangs angek\u00fcndigte Umsatzwachstum gezeigt. Noch vor dem Beginn der Serienproduktion in unserem Werk in Langen haben wir in den ersten sechs Monaten des laufenden Jahres bereits mehr als 60% des jeweiligen Gesamtjahresumsatzes der Gesch\u00e4ftsjahre 2016 und 2017 erzielt. Daran wird deutlich, wie stark die Nachfrage nach leistungsstarken Batteriesystemen f\u00fcr Busse und E-Nutzfahrzeuge ansteigt. Auch dass uns Daimler EvoBus noch vor Beginn der Serienfertigung der aktuellen Batteriesystemgeneration bereits f\u00fcr die Entwicklung der Nachfolgegeneration beauftragt hat, unterstreicht unsere hervorragende und technologisch f\u00fchrende Marktposition.\u201c F\u00fcr den erfolgreichen B\u00f6rsengang von AKASOL am 29. Juni 2018 fielen im ersten Halbjahr 2018 IPO-bezogene Einmalaufwendungen in H\u00f6he von 2,2 Mio. EUR an, unter anderem f\u00fcr Rechts- und Transaktionsberatung sowie f\u00fcr Wirtschaftspr\u00fcfungsleistungen. Ohne diese Aufwendungen erreichte AKASOL im ersten Halbjahr 2018 ein positives bereinigtes EBITDA (Ergebnis vor Zinsen, Steuern und Abschreibungen) von 1,4 Mio. EUR (H1 2017: 1,0 Mio. EUR) und ein positives bereinigtes EBIT (Ergebnis vor Zinsen und Steuern) von 1,2 Mio. EUR (H1 2017: 0,7 Mio. EUR). Die bereinigte EBIT-Marge (in Prozent des Umsatzes) lag damit bei 12,5% (H1 2017: 10,5%).\r\n\r\nDer Materialaufwand stieg im Zuge des Umsatzwachstums sowie durch die Vorbereitungen der Serienfertigung im Werk Langen auf 3,9 Mio. EUR im ersten Halbjahr 2018 (H1 2017: 2,6 Mio. EUR). Das bereinigte EBITDA und das bereinigte EBIT sind im ersten Halbjahr 2018 zudem vom planm\u00e4\u00dfigen Personalaufbau im Hinblick auf die im dritten Quartal 2018 beginnende Serienfertigung gepr\u00e4gt. Zum\r\nStichtag 30. Juni 2018 besch\u00e4ftigte AKASOL 116 festangestellte Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter (30. Juni 2017: 82). In diesem Zuge stieg der Personalaufwand von 2,3 Mio. EUR im Vorjahreszeitraum auf 2,8 Mio. EUR im ersten Halbjahr 2018. Aufgrund des im Vergleich zur Umsatzentwicklung unterproportionalen Anstiegs des Personalaufwands sank die Personalaufwandsquote leicht von im Vorjahr 33,0% auf jetzt 30,2%. Infolge der Kapitalerh\u00f6hung im Rahmen des IPO erh\u00f6hte sich die Eigenkapitalquote auf 86,6% (31. M\u00e4rz 2018: 11,6%).\u00a0Dr. Curt Philipp Lorber, CFO von AKASOL: \u201eWir stehen in den Startl\u00f6chern um wie angek\u00fcndigt im dritten Quartal f\u00fcr Daimler und einen skandinavischen Bus- und LkwHersteller in unserem Werk in Langen die Serienfertigung zu beginnen. Dar\u00fcber hinaus besch\u00e4ftigen wir uns bereits intensiv mit der Standortsuche f\u00fcr unser Werk in den USA und unser Forschungs- und Entwicklungszentrum in Hessen, um z\u00fcgig erste\u00a0Erfolge in den Projekten zu erzielen, f\u00fcr die wir unsere Kapitalbasis durch den\u00a0B\u00f6rsengang Ende Juni gest\u00e4rkt haben.\u201c\u00a0Den im Rahmen des erfolgreichen B\u00f6rsengangs erzielten Emissionserl\u00f6s von\u00a0ca. 100 Mio.
