Total Group revenues decreased significantly by 12.8%, from EUR 831.6 million to EUR 725.0 million. EBIT fell significantly from EUR 35.3 million in the previous year to EUR 6.5 million. Earnings after tax amounted to EUR -16.0 million (previous year: EUR -0.4 million). In addition to the losses in the Construction and Equipment segments, interest rate hedging transactions had a significant negative impact. The Construction segment and, in particular, the Equipment segment fell significantly short of the original expectations, which can primarily be attributed to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. The Resources segment remained nearly unaffected and demonstrates a better development than the previous year in operational terms. The order backlog increased very significantly by 25.1% to EUR 1,275.7. This was primarily attributable to Construction, where very large order volumes were commissioned, including in Europe. The impact of the pandemic on further construction activities around the world and on customer demand for equipment, and thus ultimately on the revenue and earnings development, still cannot be predicted reliably.
