Forecast

The statements in this section reflect the current views of our management. Contrary to the forecasts published in the 2023 combined management report (2023 Annual Report), we now expect business to develop better than expected in the United States operating segment. Adjusted EBITDA AL for full-year 2024 was originally expected to come in at USD 30.8 billion in the United States operating segment. We now expect adjusted EBITDA AL for the United States operating segment to come in at around USD 30.9 billion.

All other statements made remain valid. Our planning assumes an unchanged U.S. dollar exchange rate of USD 1.08.

AL – After Leases
Since the start of the 2019 financial year, we have taken the effects of the first-time application of IFRS 16 “Leases” into account when determining our financial performance indicators. “EBITDA after leases” (EBITDA AL) is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for depreciation of the right-of-use assets and for interest expenses on recognized lease liabilities. When determining “free cash flow after leases” (free cash flow AL), free cash flow is adjusted for the repayment of lease liabilities.
