Guidance maintained after a strong Q3 despite Polish Link weighing on ITS

Key message: Waberer’s reported Q3 consolidated EBIT of EUR 10.1mn, which translates
into a 26% increase compared to the same period last year. The company maintained fullyear EBIT guidance of EUR 40mn+ while clarified its revenue guidance at EUR 770-780
mn. ITS became unprofitable again on EBIT level (EUR -1.9mn) due to the unfavourable tax
policy changes affecting the segment’s polish subsidiary (LINK). As a result, the company
decided to implement a strategic change in LINK’s operations, with significantly increasing
the forwarding activities while adjusting the size of the own fleet in the region. During the
quarter, Waberer’s signed an agreement for the acquisition of the 66.9% stake in
Hungarian Post Insurance and Hungarian Post Life Insurance. The transaction is expected
to close by the end of the year.
