Interim Group management report<br />
Consolidated interim financial statements<br />
As of June 30, 2010 there was a slight shift in the structure of maturities to short-term financial debt<br />
as its share of total financial debt increased from 11 to 20 %. The composition of financial debt has<br />
changed as a result of the significant utilization of the commercial paper program (as of June 30, 2010:<br />
8 %, as of December 31, 2009: 0 %). The financial debt continues to consist primarily of bonds (56 %)<br />
and Federal loans (16 %).<br />

Gross capital expenditures amounted to € 2,502 million and were 5.3 % above the figure of the first half of<br />
2009 mainly as a result of the continued implementation of measures in conjunction with the economic<br />
stimulus programs in the infrastructure business units. Accordingly, the investment grants increased<br />
together with the increase in gross capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in the DB <strong>Bahn</strong> Regional<br />
business unit were noticeably lower than the same year-ago figure as a result of lower rolling stock<br />
additions leading to a decrease in net capital expenditures. For the second half of 2010 rolling stock<br />
additions are expected as further operations will pick up after the change in the timetable.<br />
The main focus of our capital expenditures were measures to improve the performance and efficiency<br />
in the infrastructure as well as the modernization of our rolling stock fleet.<br />
Capital expenditures made were once again dominated by business units in the infrastructure division,<br />
and specifically by the DB Netze Track business unit, as before. The division accounted for 83 % (first half<br />
of 2009: 73 %) of gross capital expenditures, while the DB Netze Track business unit alone absorbed 77 %<br />
(first half of 2009: 67 %). Business units in the Passenger Transport division held a 6 % share (first half<br />
of 2009: 14 %). Business units in the Transport and Logistics accounted for 8 % (first half of 2009: 11 %).<br />
Additional information about the performance of the individual business units may be found in the<br />
chapter “Development of business units.”
