Without the cost of the exhaust affair earnings from operations would be increased slightly. Revenues from Europe’s biggest carmaker rose by 5.4 percent to 213 billion euros.

In the now quantifiable provisions would Volkswagen reported a successful year, explained CEO Matthias Müller: “in the core business, Volkswagen is dazzling there.”

for the effects of diesel scandal, the Group has on its balance sheet in 2015 16.2 Reset billion euros. Thus, the buffer for the previously estimated cost of the diesel crisis rises already made provisions in the third quarter again by almost ten billion euros.

bonuses cuts and mini Dividend

for controversial issue special payments for the Management Board announced VW that the bonuses are cut by 30 percent. This was announced by Prime Minister of Lower Stephan Weil (SPD) with a press conference of the VW supervisory board.

However, the money will not be deleted – but only shelved. The money will but converted and parked in shares, so since further. After three years would be considered as the share price has developed. Deck of a quarter to the most recent level, get paid the money, he was lying about there even back correspondingly more money. . Only when the parity was among them, the affected directors would not get the money

For the voting VW ordinary shares are accordingly EUR 0.11 flow. (Previously: EUR 4.80) , Preferred shareholders receive more dividend – usually six cents – because they have no voting rights

For Lower Saxony, ie, for example, that time only 6,. account for 5 million euros to the second largest shareholder in Volkswagen. A year ago, the country had already collected around EUR 285 million dividend. The imminent end of June meeting must still approve the dividend proposal by Friday. This is considered safe because the Porsche and Piëch families hold as major shareholders the majority.

Volkswagen had tampered with an illegal software exhaust test on diesel vehicles. It was about values ​​of harmful nitrogen oxide. This had plunged the group into a serious crisis. Worldwide affected eleven million vehicles. VW may not only require the high provisions in the balance sheet nor immense risks due to penalties and lawsuits in billions.
