Your Continental recently caught up with the group of the ten most highly valued companies in Germany in terms of market capitalization. On behalf of our global team, we would like to thank you for your trust. Our approach to creating value and achieving profitable growth has clearly met with approval. It can be summed up in three words: global, sustainable, and innovative. Our global Continental team of around 190,000 employees once again put in an outstanding performance in 2014, and for this, we thank them most sincerely. We have made some impressive achievements, most notably: › Our profitable growth. We have boosted our sales by 3.5 percent to €34.5 billion and our EBIT by 2.5 percent to €3.3 billion. › Our sound net assets position. Our net indebtedness at the end of 2014, and thus before the cash outflow for the Veyance acquisition, was below three billion euros, continuing at the excellent level of earlier years. › Our capacity for innovation. Excellent examples of this are our 48-volt technology for hybrid drive systems for cars, our expanded development centers in Asia, our High Technology Performance Center for the devel- opment and production of top-quality tires in Korbach, Germany, and our new Intelligent Transportation Systems business unit in Silicon Valley, California, U.S.A. The latter will develop brand new business models for the car as part of the Internet. Your trust in our performance potential paid off again in 2014, with the value of your shares rising 10 per- cent. In addition, we are delighted to be able to propose to the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting in April 2015 that a dividend of €3.25 per share be distributed to you. All in all, we systematically continued along our successful path last year. And we did so in spite of persistent weak economic growth in Europe and South America, the uncertain situation in Ukraine and Russia, and significant exchange rate fluctuations for some currencies. In addition, uncertainty on the markets was fueled by the sharp decline in the oil price in the final quarter of the reporting year.
