The virus created unprecedented challenges for DEUTZ too, as a global player with international sales markets and supply chains. We responded with rapid and decisive action, for example temporarily suspending production in Europe in April last year to protect the health of our employees. One key achievement was the swift formulation and implementation of our ‘Vision of Success’, a set of guidelines that served as a compass in these extraordinary times, steering DEUTZ through the crisis in the best way possible. Despite all the measures we put in place, there is no denying that the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic took its toll on our 2020 financial results. The massive slump in demand in what was already a challenging market environment resulted in a year-on-year decline in revenue of 29.6 percent to €1,295.6 million and an EBIT margin before exceptional items of minus 5.8 percent. The Company reported a net loss adjusted for exceptional items of € 75.7 million, which translated into earnings per share of minus € 0.63. The DEUTZ share price was also severely impacted by the coronavirus crisis in 2020.
