2 Letter to the ShareholdersLETTER TOTHE SHAREHOLDERSDear Shareholders,Fiscal year <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> has once again been a verydifficult year for our company. Although the globaleconomy recovered from the global financial crisisin <strong>2010</strong> and in spite of a moderate economicrecovery in 20<strong>11</strong> we have fallen far short of ourown objectives to realize profitable growth.The increase of the total operating performancecompared to 2009/10 by EUR 17.6 million to EUR64.5 million is due to the clear sales increase of24 % in the division of precision engineering. Incomingorders increased by 13 % compared to theprevious year. The improved business climate in thecommercial vehicles industry contributed essentiallyto this development.The group result before tax amounting to EUR -2.2million has improved compared to the previousyear by EUR 13.9 million. This change is due to theclear operative improvement in the core business.The company has so far not been able to get out ofthis crisis situation. We will reach our objective tosecure profitable growth in future if we continuewith the approach taken in the last few months.For this purpose we have defined a sustainableprogramme of measures.1. Focus on core competenciesThe attempt to open up new markets in the area ofrenewable energies is to be regarded as failed. Allactivities in this area have been stopped. We gaveup our participation in the joint venture "<strong>Schumag</strong>Green Energy GmbH & Co. KG".2. ReorganizationWe intend to tighten our portfolio, to change ordiscontinue loss fields and less profitable articlesso that these no longer have a permanent effecton our result. Furthermore we have to reduceinternal costs and optimize buying. Our projectmanagement must essentially increase theproductivity and quality of our work in order tomeet the consistently high requirements of ourcustomers.In the area of sales we intend to position ourselvesin a way that we are closer to our customers andwill thereby be able to profit more quickly fromchanges in the market. In addition, we are makingefforts to reduce our high dependency on theautomotive industry and to drive forward thetransition from a component manufacturer to asystem/sub-system supplier. However, to exploitthe existing business opportunities we are stillmissing the necessary funds.3. LiquidityDue to the well-known problem connected withthe ownership structure we have so far not beenable to proceed to an ordered financing of operatingassets. To relieve the liquidity situation wecarried out an extensive sale-and-lease-back transactionwith regard to our machinery. In addition, aloan as well as an overdraft facility currentlyamounting to a total of EUR 1.4 million are availableto us. The company is also forced to enter intoshort-time financing contracts. These activities inthe area of factoring have clearly increased comparedto the previous year. In view of the problemconnected with the ownership structure and theassociated risk situation credit grantors requestadditional charges and securities to a not insubstantialextent.For a further relief of the financial situation of<strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> it is therefore necessary to driveforward further changes on the basis of theadjusted ownership structure.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 3Date for the general meetingContrary to the planning in the last calendar yearthe general meeting of <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> as well asindividual dates for legal reporting commitmentshad to be postponed several times. Due to theabove mentioned problems with financing and themaintenance of the company's liquidity as well asthe clarification of the depreciation requirementsassociated with <strong>Schumag</strong> BR Energy GmbH repeateddiscussions have taken place with the persons incharge of this company as well as the auditors of<strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> und <strong>Schumag</strong> BR Energy GmbH. Thisled to considerable delays in the completion of theannual financial statements. A necessary consequenceof this delay was also the postponement ofthe general meeting of <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> to July of thisyear for which I kindly request you to accept ourapologies and hope you will understand.With respect for you, our shareholders, and withregard to statutory regulations it is also necessaryto address those matters which are extremelyunpleasant but which are honest and beneficial tothe company. I kindly request you to continue toplace your faith and confidence in our companysince, at the core, we are a strong company. Andthis is what we want to remain for you, dear shareholders,as well as for our customers and employees.At this point our special thanks go to our employeesas well as to their representatives in the relevantcommittees who stand by their company in a notso easy situation.Aachen, May 2013The Board of Executive DirectorsDr. Johannes Ohlinger

SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> <strong>11</strong>DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCEWITH THE GERMANCORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODEThe Board of Executive Directors and the SupervisoryBoard of a German joint-stock company whichis listed on the stock exchange are requiredaccording to § 161 of the Stock Corporation Act todeclare once a year whether or not the companyhas complied and continues to comply with theGerman Corporate Governance Code or whichrecommendations of the Code were or are notfollowed and why not.We declare according to § 161 of the German StockCorporation Act that since the last Declaration ofCompliance of March 2013 <strong>Schumag</strong> Aktiengesellschafthas largely complied with the recommendationsof the German Corporate Governance Code("Code") in the version of May 15, 2012 and that itwill continue to do so with the following exceptions.According to item 2.3.3 of the Code the companyshall facilitate the personal exercising of shareholders'voting rights and shall support the shareholdersin particular with postal voting. This is notpracticed at <strong>Schumag</strong> because the articles of associationdo not provide for this voting procedure.According to item 3.8 (2) of the Code a deductibleof at least 10 % of the damage up to at least 1 1/2times the amount of the fixed annual remunerationof the board member should be agreed whentaking out a D&O liability insurance for the Boardof Executive Directors. According to item 3.8 (3) acorresponding deductible should be agreed in aD&O liability insurance for the Supervisory Board.A deductible for the Supervisory Board, as it isusual practice with the majority of German companies,has so far not been agreed at <strong>Schumag</strong> andwill not be agreed in future because the companyholds the view that the agreement of such adeductible would have no behaviour-controllingeffect on the members of the Supervisory Boardnor would it be suitable for motivation purposes.


12 Declaration of ComplianceAccording to the 1 st sentence of item 4.2.1 of theCode the Board of Executive Directors should consistof several persons and have one chairman orspokesman. With regard to the fact that <strong>Schumag</strong>has the organizational structure of a medium-sizedcompany the Executive Board consists of one person.In view of the difficult economic situation of thecompany this is also indicated for cost reasonsalone.According to item 4.2.3 (6) of the Code thechairman of the Supervisory Board is to inform thegeneral meeting about the basic elements of theemolument system and its changes. This has notbeen done and will not be done in future becausethe basic elements of the emolument system havealready been described in detail in the report onemoluments included in the management report.According to item 5.3.3 of the Code the SupervisoryBoard is supposed to form a nomination committeewhich consists exclusively of representatives ofthe shareholders and proposes suitable candidatesto the Supervisory Board for its election recommendationsto the general meeting. This has notbeen done in the past and is not considered tobe done in future because the resolutions of theSupervisory Board on proposals for the electionof Supervisory Board members by the generalmeeting only requires the majority of the votesof the four shareholders represented in theSupervisory Board anyway as stipulated in the4 th sentence of § 124 (3) of the German StockCorporation Act.According to item 5.4.1 (2) the Supervisory Boardshall indicate concrete goals for its compositionwhich, among other things, are to take diversityinto consideration; according to the 2 nd sentence ofitem 5.4.1 (3) the goals and the status of theirimplementation are to be published in the reporton Corporate Governance. The Supervisory Boardof the company intends to deal with this subject indetail at the next meetings and to implement itaccordingly; a declaration to this effect can thereforenot be issued before this. An age limit formembers of the Supervisory Board in terms of item5.4.1 (2) of the Code will also not be determined infuture. The Supervisory Board's election recommendationsof members of the Supervisory Board to beelected by the general meeting are always and willcontinue to be geared to the personal aptitude andefficiency of the suggested person in the individualcase.According to item 5.4.1 (4) to (6) of the Code theSupervisory Board shall, in its election recommendationto the general meeting (for the election ofshareholders to the Supervisory Board), disclosethe personal and business relations of each candidatewith the enterprise, the executive bodies ofthe company and with a shareholder holding amaterial interest in the company (i.e. directly orindirectly holding more than 10 % of the votingshares), and this recommendation to discloseshould be limited to those circumstance which, inthe appraisal of the Supervisory Board, a shareholderjudging objectively would consider relevant to hiselection decision. This recommendation is not compliedwith because in the opinion of the Board ofExecutive Directors and the Supervisory Board thecontents and extent of the requirements laid downin the Code have not been sufficiently determinedin this respect. In order to ensure the desired legalsecurity of the election of Supervisory Board membersthe company exclusively follows statutorydisclosure requirements with regard to its recommendationsto the general meeting of candidatesto be elected to the Supervisory Board. In addition,it discloses relations with related parties in theannual report in accordance with statutoryrequirements.According to the 3 rd sentence of item 5.4.3 thenames of the candidates proposed to take thechair of the Supervisory Board are to be disclosedto the shareholders. The names of the candidatesproposed to take the chair of the Supervisory Boardare not and will also in future not be disclosedbecause the Supervisory Board does not considerit practicable to vote at the general meeting for oragainst a candidate with regard to a potential officeas chairman in the elections to the SupervisoryBoard.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 13According to the 3 rd sentence of item 5.4.6 (1) ofthe Code and the 1 st sentence of (2) the emolumentsof the Supervisory Board shall take thechairmanship as well as the membership in committeesinto consideration and shall furthermore,apart from a fixed remuneration, also include aperformance-oriented remuneration. The articlesof association of <strong>Schumag</strong> only provide for fixedremuneration components without taking thechairmanship and/or the membership in committeesinto consideration. This ruling is to be maintained forthe time being with regard to the organizationalstructure of the company.According to the 1 st sentence of item 5.5.3 of theCode the Supervisory Board should provide informationin its report to the general meeting aboutconflicts of interest which have occurred and howthey were treated. As before, <strong>Schumag</strong> does notfollow this recommendation and will not do so infuture and will, as a rule, give priority to the principleof confidentiality of the deliberations of theSupervisory Board (see also the 2 nd sentence of§ <strong>11</strong>6 of the German Stock Corporation Act anditem 3.5 of the Code).According to the 4 th sentence of item 7.1.2 of theCode the consolidated financial statements shouldbe available to the public within 90 days of theend of the fiscal year and the interim reportswithin 45 days of the end of the reporting period.This recommendation has not been and will not befollowed for organizational reasons but thecompany continues to aim at a timely publication.Aachen, April 2013<strong>Schumag</strong> AktiengesellschaftThe Supervisory BoardThe Board of Executive Directors


14Group management reportGROUP MAN<strong>AG</strong>EMENT <strong>REPORT</strong>❚ ECONOMICENVIRONMENTIn <strong>2010</strong> the recovery of the global economy fromthe global financial crisis slowed down. In spiteof this, a rise of the worldwide gross domesticproduct by 4.8 % was recorded for the total year.In view of the high budget deficits in many countriesthe monetary and financial measures takento stimulate economic activity in the industrialcountries lost their effect. A moderate recoveryof economic activity continued in 20<strong>11</strong>. This wasaccompanied by rising prices in the raw materialmarkets and the consequences of the earthquakein Japan. From the 3rd quarter of 20<strong>11</strong> globalproduction clearly increased again at a rate ofincrease of more than 4 %.In the period under review Germany was one ofthe industrial countries who faced the crisis withparticular success. Especially due to a strongdomestic demand the gross domestic productincreased by 2.0 % until the end of the 3 rd quarter20<strong>11</strong>. The situation in the labour market wascharacterized by an all-time record in employmentrates. The inflation rate of 2 % was classed as highin Germany, price drivers were the energy and foodmarkets.Important markets for <strong>Schumag</strong> are the commercialvehicles market as well as medical technology.In 20<strong>11</strong> the German manufacturers of commercialvehicles recorded a 24 % increase in productioncompared to the previous year. This was clearlyhigher than the European growth rate of 15 %.Global production even decreased by 1 %. Thelargest impact was caused here by the weakeningof the Asian commercial vehicles market. Thepressure on the automotive industry remainedunchanged at a high level. There is an unchangedtendency of establishing a supplier base in theEuropean and non-European region.The German medical technology industry grew byalmost 7 % in 20<strong>11</strong> which was largely due to therise in foreign sales by almost <strong>11</strong>%.

During 180 years of company history<strong>Schumag</strong> has developed into an enterprise whoseknow-how is trendsetting in many technologies.The recovery which had started in fiscal year2009/10 continued in the year under review.Incoming orders were increased by 13 %. Salesrose by 24 % with a relatively stable course ofbusiness during the year. We take this as a signthat the effects of the backlog demand from theglobal economic crisis did not have any furtheressential effect on the buying behaviour of ourcustomers in fiscal year <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong>. Sales in theexisting business settled down at a level whichroughly corresponds to that of pre-crisis years.In addition, we added a small volume of newproducts to our manufacturing range. However,the permanent establishment of new products aswell as the resulting sales increases can often bemeasured only after 10 to 20 months.In spite of the 24 % increase in sales over the previousyear the total number of employees in theprecision engineering division was reduced by 4 %from October <strong>2010</strong> to September 20<strong>11</strong>. In thisconnection, the stability as well as the sustainabilityof our growth in sales enabled us to increase thenumber of employees with permanent contractsby 10 % during the year whereas the number ofexternal staff (temporary agency workers) wasclearly reduced by 49 %.To secure the location, an agreement was reachedbetween the parties to the wage agreement in July20<strong>11</strong> to introduce a 37.5-hour week without wageadjustment which will be effective from August 1,20<strong>11</strong> until July 31, 2013.

The planned move of parts of theprecision engineering production to this hall and theconnected optimization of production processes hastherefore not yet been accomplished.In fiscal year <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> the pre-financing requiredfor the extension of our production facilities facedour company with a great challenge. Financing wassecured by various measures such as the extensionof the factoring business, the sale-and-lease-backtransaction relating to our machinery as well asthe receipt of a cash credit amounting to EUR 1.0million.GmbH was not realized, however, because theconnected concepts for this turned out to be notrealizable due to the recent change in the generalpolitical conditions for this branch as well as themarket development.Financing of plant engineering continues to beeffected exclusively via the parent company. Inaddition, a consulting company was instructed inOctober <strong>2010</strong> to work out financing options in theRussian banking market – especially for the financingof projects in the conventional division ofplant engineering. The contract has expired in themeantime and due to missing customer orders acontinuation of these consulting services is nolonger regarded as conducive to our goals.Plant engineeringThe business segment of plant engineering hasso far not measured up to our expectations.Our anticipation of a lengthy development of ourentry in the Eastern European markets has confirmeditself. Although our subsidiary <strong>Schumag</strong> BR EnergyGmbH successfully established numerous businesscontacts and placed project offers no significanttransactions have come about so far. In <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong><strong>Schumag</strong> BR Energy GmbH was able to realizesales in the conventional area amounting to EUR0.9 million.In the area of regenerative energies <strong>Schumag</strong>achieved sales of EUR 2.9 million, thereof EUR 2.8million being allotted to the trading business.

During the marketentry phase for regenerative energies sales wererealized in this division through a 100 % purchaseof materials at a low contribution margin. Due tothe increased business volume the average numberof temporary workers, the cost of whom are statedwithin the cost of materials, was increased from76 to 139 workers. In contrast to this, the averagenumber of our regular workforce remained relativelyconstant at 606 employees compared to 593 in theprevious year. The share of personnel costs in thetotal operating performance was therefore clearlyreduced by 12 percentage points. It is to be takeninto account here that the previous year had beenburdened by the necessary provision of personnelfor the processing of the business volume whichhad considerably increased not until the secondhalf of the fiscal year.ResultAlthough the result before taxes clearly improvedcompared to the previous year by EUR 13.9 millionit continued to remain negative at EUR -2.2 million.The improvement is in particular due to the factthat the total of material and personnel expenseswas reduced from 87 % to 77 % at a 38 % increasein the total operating performance. Within thescope of the agreement to introduce a 37.5-hourweek without wage adjustment we were furthermoreable to release the remaining commitmentarising from the ERA adjustment fund amountingto EUR 0.8 million. The new business segment ofregenerative energies, however, caused a negativecontribution to operating income amounting to EUR-1.6 million. The result was furthermore burdenedby non-scheduled depreciation (EUR 0.4 million)associated with the introduction of SAP and withthe test station for the planned but not realizedinverter business. The overheads of the companycontinue to be at a high level due to the costof financing (sale-and-lease-back of machinery,factoring) as well as due to the expenses resultingfrom the quotation on the stock exchange.In the core area of precision engineering theresult before taxes was clearly further reducedby EUR 14.1 million. At an amount of EUR +0.3million (previous year EUR -13.8 million) the resultis slightly positive again for the first time sincefiscal year 2005/06.


22 Group management reportThe result of the segment of plant engineeringamounted to EUR -2.5 million (previous year EUR-2.1 million). The negative result is in particulardue to the costs associated with the businesssegment of "regenerative energies" (EUR 1.6 million)as well as the expenses for the market entryof <strong>Schumag</strong> BR Energy GmbH (EUR 0.8 million).The result of other segments amounts to EUR 0.0million (previous year EUR +0.1 million).Non-financial performance indicatorsA special feature of the employees of <strong>Schumag</strong> istheir identification with the company and theircommitment to its targets. The structure of theworkforce is characterized by the high qualificationof employees. This is our basis to achieve the highquality of our products which leads to our strongposition in the market, especially in the division ofprecision engineering.Our performance spectrum goes far beyond themanufacture of precision and standard parts.Due to our special know-how we are in a positionto offer specific production processes to ourcustomers.

A contrary effect was in particular causedby consumption and by the release of the commitmentarising from the ERA adjustment fund(EUR -1.5 million).Although receivables amounting to EUR 4.9 million(previous year 2.6 million) were sold to a factoringcompany as of September 30, 20<strong>11</strong>, our tradereceivables slightly increased by EUR 0.4 milliondue to the heavily increased sales volume in precisionengineering.The shareholders' equity of the <strong>Schumag</strong> Groupremained almost constant at EUR 13.4 million.The result-related reduction (EUR -1.0 million) wascompensated by the offsetting of actuarial gainsand losses arising from the valuation of pensionaccruals in accordance with IAS 19 (EUR +1.0 million).The capital ratio slightly decreased from 27 %to 26 %.

The result before taxes of fiscal year<strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> improved by EUR 13.9 million comparedto the previous year. It is to be taken into accounthere that the result is burdened by special effectsamounting to a total of EUR -4.2 million.In spite of the clearly negative earnings position inthe last few fiscal years the company has a capitalratio of 26 %.The positive development in <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> basicallyresulted from the recovery of sales. In our corearea of precision engineering sales have nowarrived at about 87 % of the pre-crisis level. Thecontribution margins achieved have slightlyincreased compared with the previous year.A major part of the earnings effect results from theclear reduction of the rate of personnel expensesfrom 52 % to 40 %. During the crisis we expresslydecided to do without personnel cuts to a largeextent. Without this measures the sales growth infiscal year <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> would have probably been lesssuccessful. Due to our efficient cost managementwe furthermore succeeded to a large extent inkeeping overheads at a constant level.The development of the assets situation can beregarded as almost constant compared withprevious years. Financial balance existed at alltimes.To sum up, we can state that the earnings situationhas improved but still continues to be unsatisfactory.The economic situation currently continues to bestrained, but we consistently work on a continuousimprovement in all areas of the company.❚ RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTResearch activities have so far been of minorsignificance in our branch but will be morerelevant in future due to market requirements.The focus of development at <strong>Schumag</strong> is on thecore area of precision engineering and concentrateson the automation and rationalization of seriesprocesses and on the creation of new productionprocesses.QualityIn the precision engineering division the analyticaltools for online process monitoring and for representationof the quality and productivity status arecontinuously developed. The daily evaluations aswell as the control loops observed have led to animproved quality awareness among the employeesas well as to an increase in productivity.


28 Group management reportAt our modern measuring centre the measuringroom and test equipment have been combined.The entire measuring centre is fully air-conditioned.We have thereby created the conditions to recordwith our measuring equipment the ever increasingaccuracies required by the market.This applies not only to the tests carried out duringproduction (especially form and position) but alsoin the area of the manufacture and calibration ofmeasuring and test equipment.The annual system analysis of the existing qualitysystem according to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO TS16949:2009 was successfully carried out inNovember <strong>2010</strong> and was confirmed by certificates.In November 20<strong>11</strong> the introduction and integrationof an environmental management system accordingto ISO 14001:2004 + Cor 1:2009 was also successfullycompleted with a certifying audit.The Romanian subsidiary <strong>Schumag</strong> Romania S.R.L.has also been successfully re-certified according toISO 9001:2008 since May <strong>2010</strong>.❚ STEERING SYSTEM<strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> has a steering system in place in orderto be able to react adequately and in due time tochanges of the market, the environment and ofinternal conditions.Reporting and flow of information are essentialelements of the steering system. Based on thissystem the Board of Executive Directors ispermanently informed about relevant key figures.Deviations from the target can be directlyidentified and discussed as soon as possible.An important control variable is the so-called"key figure of added value" (added value per hourworked). This key figure is an indicator for theproductivity of manufacturing in the core area ofprecision engineering. Insufficient capacity utilizationor technical problems are identified by thiskey figure.Another central control variable is EBIT. This keyfigure facilitates a comparison of the operating profitof individual months and a comparison amongdivisions.❚ RISK <strong>REPORT</strong>Features of the internal control and riskmanagement systemThe group-wide internal control and risk managementsystem of <strong>Schumag</strong> is an integrated systemwhich supports management decisions for thesafeguarding of the efficiency and profitability ofbusiness activities, for the early identification ofrisks, for the adequacy and reliability of internaland external accounting and for compliance withthe legal regulations which are relevant to thecompany.The risk management system is composed of alarge number of components which are embeddedin the operational and organizational structureof the company. The reliability of the system isensured by the establishment of guidelines as wellas by the permanent monitoring of processes. Byincorporation of the risk management system inthe reporting system as well as regular communicationbetween decision-makers an early detectionof risks and the corresponding countermeasuresare facilitated.Our risk management manual describes the processof risk prevention. The systematic approach torisk management creates an awareness towardsan open dealing with risk-relevant data andtheir clear documentation and forms the basisfor entrepreneurial decisions, for the quality ofplanning, the efficiency of reporting on controllingand the optimum use of company resources.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 29Our department heads and area managers are incharge of the identification of risks, their assessmentand control as well as their communication.Coordination is up to our risk manager.The aim is to point out early the different types ofrisks to the persons in charge at as many hierarchylevels of the company as possible and to use therisk defence and control instruments developedwithin the scope of our risk management in duetime.The business processes are subject to controlswhich are to make risks controllable. The measuresand rules e.g. refer to instructions for the separationof duties, signing regulations, restriction ofsigning authorization for payments to a smallnumber of persons (four-eyes principle), measuresfor IT security.Apart from this, our control and risk managementsystem is assessed within the scope of the audit ofthe annual financial statements in so far as this issignificant for the provision of an accurate pictureof the assets, financial and earnings position of<strong>Schumag</strong>.This risk report analyses and describes the essentialrisks of <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> and its subsidiaries to bemonitored which were identifiable until the endof the period under review.Sales market risks<strong>Schumag</strong> mainly operates in the markets forcommercial vehicles and medical technology. Salesmarket risks occur in different forms here. Whilethe demand in the medical technology marketremains at a relatively constant level the commercialvehicles sector is decisively influenced by theoverall situation in the global economy.As far as our dependency on the automotiveindustry is concerned we see a concentrationof risks here.years a market entry success can be expected onlyafter a period of up to five years, and since theconditions for access to this market have changedwe are no longer able to guarantee the success ofthe funds invested so far in an amount of currentlyEUR 5.8 million.As in previous years the contract award of international,dollar-based projects was impaired by theEUR/USD exchange rate relation.It is a typical feature of sales market risks that theyhave a decisive influence on the assets, financialand earnings position of the company. The salessituation in <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> developed towards the precrisislevel. We respond to the still existing risks arisingfrom the uncertain global economic developmentby the extension of our international market presencein the commercial vehicles supply sector. Inaddition, we develop new sales strategies to achievegrowth in the non-automotive area. Based on ourcontinued diversification we expect to curtail salesmarket risks.Due to the uncertainties with regard to futureeffects of the financial, economic and nationaldebt crisis there are no consistent forecasts forthe development of domestic and foreign demand.Our corporate planning for the core area of precisionengineering is therefore carried out carefully.For fiscal year 2012/13 we expect a decline in salescompared with the previous year by approx. 10 %while for 2013/14 a moderate sales growth ofapprox. 5 % is anticipated again. There is still a riskof sales-market-based losses due to external factorssuch as the economic and financial crisisor the realignment of customer buying behaviour.In addition, discussions with our major customersshowed that in future the question of ownership willhave an essential impact on our sales situation.In the market of plant and component constructionon which our subsidiary <strong>Schumag</strong> BR EnergyGmbH has put the main emphasis in the last three


30 Group management reportThe order situation as of the end of December2012 does not correspond to our initial expectationsso that our planning has been adjustedaccordingly. The risk of a further sales reductioncontinuous to exist latently.Financial risksThe company is faced with a variety of financialrisks and opportunities. These can be identifiedboth in the operative business and in financingissues.A financial imbalance may in the most unfavourablecase lead to insolvency. The cause of this maybe insufficient internal financing and/or failure toobtain the required external financing.Financial risks in the operative area are basicallycaused by fluctuations in interest rates, currenciesand in the purchase prices for raw materials andother materials. Due to short-term money investmentswithin the scope of the liquidity reserveduring the course of the year there are no essentialrisks caused by changes in interest rates. To preventexchange rate risks arising from high-volumetransactions concluded in foreign currency theseare at the same time secured by hedging.Short-term liquidity risks arising from fluctuationsin payment flows are identified early by a rollingliquidity planning system. To control default risks<strong>Schumag</strong> pursues a consistent accounts receivablemanagement. By the use of actual factoring a majorshare of the default risk – which is attenuated by thecredit standing of our customers – is transferred tothe factoring company.We observe the development of our financial situationon the basis of short, medium and long-termforecasts. Information about this is provided on acurrent basis within the scope of the reporting of ourrisk manager. Due to the small volume of availableliquidity essential revenue reductions and/or costincreases may lead to a disturbance of the financialbalance.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 31Since August <strong>2010</strong> we have implemented factoringand in December <strong>2010</strong> we carried out an extensivesale-and-lease-back transaction with regard to ourmachinery. In addition, we received a workingcapital credit in July 20<strong>11</strong> and a current accountcredit line in April 2012, each amounting to EUR1.0 million. With these measures we maintainedour financial balance. However, our liquidity situationcontinues to be strained. In the event of adeterioration of the order situation and thus alsoof the financial situation there is a risk due to ouruncertain ownership issue, that the required additionalexternal financing may not be available indue time.Other risksProcurement risksProcurement market risks are basically divided intoschedule, quantity and price risks. Especially in thesteel processing industry there has been a situationfor several years that the emerging markets exertconsiderable influence on the above mentionedrisks due to their demand behaviour. A particularfeature of the company's risk profile results fromthe fact that a large number of raw materials (inparticular special alloys) can be exclusively procuredfrom only one or very few manufacturers.Difficulties with raw material supplies experiencedin the recent past were largely prevented in fiscalyear <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong>. The raw material suppliers haveincreased their production capacities again. Intotal, moderate price increases have resulted.These are due to the increased demand fromemerging markets as well as the worldwide risein raw material prices.It is hardly possible to quantify the procurementrisks because these are in the end determined bythe fact whether or not a promised production canbe carried out according to the requirements interms of quantity, quality, price and delivery date.In the past fiscal year production orders werelargely processed according to schedule. Theincrease of the total operating performanceamounting to more than EUR 18 million wasmanaged on the procurement side without anysignificant problems. Due to our customer structureit is hardly possible to derive long-term requirementplans for our procurement.The risk structure as well as the different formsof risks have not considerably changed comparedto the previous year. Framework contracts withsuppliers are increasingly concluded which alsoaim at the procurement of the required materialson a just-in-time basis. This results in both chances(less capital being tied up) and risks (increaseddependency on suppliers).By means of long-term purchasing contracts andactive inventories management we continue tocounteract price increases and risks relating toscheduled delivery dates. Based on the specificationsof our customers we purchase our rawmaterials to a considerable extent from certainsuppliers. This does not lead to any dependencies onindividual suppliers which threaten the continuedexistence of the company.There is an increasing tendency that our customersenter into direct price negotiations with our rawmaterial suppliers. This results in a reduction ofrisks with regard to uncontrolled price increases.Apart from this, a trend can be identified thatour purchase orders concentrate on less and lesssuppliers. The resulting bundling effect leads toclearly increased ordering volumes in individualcases which are difficult to cover by a trade creditinsurance which again leads to shorter timesallowed for payment with our suppliers.In other conditions, price risks will gain in importance.It is up to the risk management in the procurementarea to manage this, e.g. by adequate hedging transactionsor by an improved communication betweenbuying and sales.


32 Group management reportInfrastructure risksIT risks have an increasing strategic significancedue to the progressing automation in administrationas well as in production. Planning, control aswell as communication without functioning ITsystems are hardly conceivable nowadays. A totalfailure of IT systems will in the worst case lead toan entire standstill of operations and could thereforethreaten our existence.The introduction of the company-wide ERP softwareSAP to replace the old systems which wasinterrupted in spring <strong>2010</strong> will be continued inpartial areas in fiscal year 2012/13. The long interruptioncauses the risk that implementation costswill be higher than initially planned.To cover the event of IT failure an emergency andcontingency programme has already been workedout in the past. To prevent unauthorized dataaccess, firewall systems and virus scanners areused.The risk structure has largely remained unchangedcompared to the previous year. By the gradualabolishment of the old systems we hope to achievea clear reduction of this form of risk.valuation of these risks is effected in an appropriatemanner on the basis of the assessments made byour legal advisors.We currently assess risks arising from court proceedingsas low.Other risksIn fiscal year <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> operational capacity limitswere sometimes reached. Some of the new investmentsin modern machines currently have to bepostponed because of the tight liquidity situation.The proceedings for the reclassification of localwater protection zones which have been going onfor several years and threaten <strong>Schumag</strong> withextensive requirements in connection with newinvestments and with regard to the use of existingindustrial areas were still not finalized during thereporting period.Tax risks in connection with former fiscal unitieshave become statute-barred.Appropriate provisions are set up for risks arisingfrom field tax audits.The current and future challenge is to provideadditional rationalization potential by informationtechnology and at the same time to master thenecessary adjustments in terms of security as wellas financially.Risks arising from court proceedingsRisks arising from court proceedings include thoserisks which, due to completed or expected courtproceedings, may have effects on the assets,financial and earnings position of the company.Risks resulting from completed proceedings havebeen comprehensively taken into consideration inthe provision for risks from court proceedings. The


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 33❚ SUBSEQUENT EVENTSSafeguarding of liquidityIn October 20<strong>11</strong> agreements were signed for thefurther extension of factoring business in order tofinance our growth.The special collective agreement of July 20<strong>11</strong> forthe safeguarding of our location concluded betweenthe parties to the wage agreement concerning theintroduction of a 37.5-hour week without wageadjustment with a term from August 1, 20<strong>11</strong> toJuly 31, 2013 was terminated on the part of theemployee representatives in December 20<strong>11</strong> byextraordinary notice of cancellation. However, theparties to the wage agreement already reacheda new collective agreement in March 2012 withretroactive effect as of January 2012 which reinstatesthe conditions of the prior agreement. In October2012 an adjustment was made to the collectiveagreement by which further arrangements for thesafeguarding of our location which go beyond theprevious arrangements entered into force for theperiod from October 1, 2012 to September 30,2013.In April 2012 we were granted a current accountcredit line amounting to EUR 1.0 million for thefinancing of our sales growth. This was prolongedin December 2012 until the end of June 2013.Changes in the organs of the companyBy a decision of the Aachen District Court ofOctober 31, 20<strong>11</strong> Mr. Hans-Georg Kierdorf and Mr.Matthias Osinski were appointed as members ofthe Supervisory Board.At the general meeting on December 21, 20<strong>11</strong>Dr. Johannes Ohlinger and Mr. Ekkehard Brzoskawere elected as new members to the SupervisoryBoard. Mr. Peter Koschel as well as Mr. MatthiasOsinski retired at the same time.Mr. Frank Jokisch resigned as a member of theSupervisory Board as of August 23, 2012. TheSupervisory Board decided at the meeting onAugust 23, 2012 to revoke the appointment ofMr. Steffen Walpert as member of the Board ofExecutive Directors effective as of August 31, 2012.The Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Dr. JohannesOhlinger, resigned as a member of the SupervisoryBoard on August 31, 2012 and was appointed as amember of the Board of Executive Directors by theSupervisory Board effective as of September 1,2012.OtherDue to the short-term change in the general conditionsin this branch and due to the dramatic marketdevelopments we were unable to accomplish theentry into the photovoltaics business which hadbeen planned for fiscal year 20<strong>11</strong>/12. Thereforethe cooperation with Max Walk & Willy LehmannKraftfahrzeuge-Landmaschinen GmbH which hadbeen entered in April 20<strong>11</strong> was terminated. Thereforein June 2012 <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> ceased to be alimited partner of the joint venture "<strong>Schumag</strong>Green Energy GmbH & Co. KG" retrospectively asof March 31, 2012. The joint venture was dissolveddue to the limited partners' differences in opinionabout the business policy.On October 2, 2012 a judgement was passed bythe Krefeld Regional Court to grant the releaseof the 3,168,136 deposited shares to EnprovalveP. Koschel Unternehmensberatung Ltd. Two of thedefendants appealed against this judgementwithin the specified time. According to informationfrom Enprovalve P.

34 Group management report❚ OPPORTUNITIES ANDOUTLOOKPrecision engineeringAfter we had been able in <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> to achieve aclear increase in sales as compared to the previousyear to EUR 55 million we even increased it againin fiscal year 20<strong>11</strong>/12 to EUR 57 million. In ourcorporate planning for 2012/13 we currently assumea decline to EUR 53 million whereas for fiscal year2013/14 we are anticipating a moderate growthto EUR 56 million again. The current situation ofincoming orders reflects the general economicdeterioration within the automotive sector. Wesee our growth potential in the extension of newproduct lines and in the development of new salesmarkets.An essential share of our production in precisionengineering will continue to be expected in thearea of component manufacture for internalcombustion engines. In our estimation this keytechnology will set the tone at least for one moregeneration. The permanently rising need forsavings as well as the coupling with alternativepower generation technologies lead to a continuouslyincreasing complexity of customer requirements.We are capable of facing this challenge becausewe see a competitive and technology advantage inmany of the products manufactured by us. We willalso use these advantages for the extension of ouroffered range. This is also the subject of permanentdiscussions with our customers.Furthermore, our many years of experience allowus to offer equipment designs to our customers(in terms of ideal solutions). We will also in futureprovide options to manufacture sophisticatedhigh-tech components.Within the scope of our corporate philosophy wedeal with various process developments, also outsidethe automotive sector. In addition, we intendto enforce further process developments by anextension and intensification of our internaltraining activities.Due to the technological unique selling propositionof our precision engineering division we expectonly minor fluctuations in our order receipt andsales forecast.The crisis in the German photovoltaics marketwhich was largely caused by political decisionscaught us flat-footed. We were therefore unableto maintain our strategy to develop parts andcomponents for photovoltaics systems at ourprecision engineering division. Discussions heldin the public about the future of the compensationpaid for electricity fed into the grid lead touncertainties and have caused severe slumps insales at national level. For this reason the developmentof <strong>Schumag</strong> products in this area will notbe pursued for the time being due to incalculablerisks.The structure of our offered range will be consistentlyenhanced. Our customers are increasingly advisedon production technology and this cooperation leadsto a technical improvement of the manufacturedcomponents.We aim at a permanent extension of ourproduction basis in order to meet the continuouslyincreasing requirements of our customers. 180years of experience in precision engineering areproof of our flexibility.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 35Plant engineeringOur subsidiary <strong>Schumag</strong> BR Energy GmbH has sofar been unable to generate any significant salesfrom the variety of initial business contacts. This isnot surprising considering the fact that in the plantengineering business it usually takes several yearsbefore concrete business contracts are concluded.However, numerous requests for offers, declarationsof intention and framework agreementsprove that potential opportunities do exist. Ifthese can be realized, orders may be receivedin the areas of pipeline equipment and energycomponents.We cannot rule out, however, that the furthermarket exploration will be obstructed by currentlyunforeseeable events and that our efforts may fail.The establishment of the additional segment of"regenerative energies" in which, apart from theproject planning of large photovoltaics systems bythe joint venture, also function and safety tests ofinverters planned by <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> has been cancelleddue to the above mentioned developments.Overall forecastNotwithstanding all improvements in its core areathe company continues to be in a difficult situation.In spite of its strong position in the marketdue to its technological unique selling propositionin the area of low manufacturing tolerances and itsconsiderable reputation in the market the companyhas so far not been able to reach its targets.


36 Group management reportIn times where politics and markets changespontaneously and where the general conditionsare subject to actionistic change, our approachestowards business extension and diversificationhave turned out to be hardly realizable. Thereforeour move towards a "green <strong>Schumag</strong>" has beenstopped.The economic and financial success of the entireplant engineering segment remains uncertain foran indefinite period.The financial resources of our company representan essential problem area. The risk could be clearlyreduced here if a clarification was obtained withinthe short term with regard to the strategic investorand/or financial investor.The clarification of this question also seems to bemore and more a prerequisite for being able tomaintain large customers and to further extendbusiness with them.RemarkThis Group Management Report includes detailsand forecasts which refer to the future developmentof <strong>Schumag</strong>. The forecasts reflect estimationsmade on the basis of all information available tous at this time. If the assumptions on which theforecasts are based fail to materialize or if the risksoccur which we mentioned in the risk report, theactual results may deviate from the currentlyexpected results.Aachen, April 12, 2013<strong>Schumag</strong> AktiengesellschaftThe Board of Executive DirectorsDr. Johannes OhlingerFor fiscal year 20<strong>11</strong>/12 we assume a negativeresult in total. As far as the two subsequent fiscalyears are concerned we expect an improvementof the situation taking the most probable scenarioas a basis. This improvement is to be achieved bya large number of cost reductions both in the areaof personnel costs and in the area of materialcosts. After a still slightly negative result in 2012/13we plan to reach the profit zone again in fiscal year2013/14.The liquidity situation currently continues to bestrained but can be kept stable at a low level dueto our strict liquidity management. A relief of theliquidity situation is expected from the second halfof fiscal year 2012/13 provided that the marketdoes not fall any further.

42 Notes to Consolidated Financial StatementsNOTES TO CONSOLIDATEDFINANCIAL STATEMENTS❚ 1. INFORMATION ONTHE COMPANY<strong>Schumag</strong> Aktiengesellschaft is a listed corporationwith registered office in Aachen which is registeredat the Aachen District Court under registrationnumber HRB 3189. The fiscal year includes theperiod from October 1 of a year to September 30of the following year. The consolidated financialstatements for the fiscal year from October 1, <strong>2010</strong>to September 30, 20<strong>11</strong> were released for publicationon April 12, 2013 by a resolution of the Board ofExecutive Directors.❚ 2. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS2.1 BasesThe consolidated financial statements of <strong>Schumag</strong><strong>AG</strong> were prepared according to the regulations ofthe International Financial Reporting Standards(IFRS) applicable on the balance sheet date andadditionally according to the commercial rulesapplicable according to § 315a (1) of the GermanCommercial Code. In this connection all mandatoryIFRS and interpretations of the International FinancialReporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) whichhave been recognized by the European Union wereapplied. According to our expectations the IFRSwhich have so far not been recognized by theEuropean Union will not have any essential effectson the consolidated financial statements. Thefinancial statements are prepared on the basis ofhistorical cost. In application of IAS 1 the balancesheet is divided into non-current and current assetsand liabilities. Current assets and liabilities arethose which are due and payable within one year.According to IAS 12 deferred taxes are shown asnon-current assets and liabilities. The income statementis structured according to the total-expenditureformat. The currency of the financial statementsis the Euro, all amounts are indicated inthousand euros (TEUR) according to commercialrounding unless they are shown differently. Deviationsfrom the non-rounded amounts may result.To improve clarity individual items of the incomestatement and of the balance sheet are combinedand separately explained in the Notes. To providecomparability the amounts of the previous year arereclassified, if necessary.In previous years the plan assets were erroneouslystated at the current value of the underlying insuranceinstead of the fair value. The previous years'values have been adjusted accordingly. The adjustmentshad the following effects on the consolidatedbalance sheet for fiscal years 2008/09 and2009/10:Balance sheet items 30-09-<strong>2010</strong> 30-09-2009TEURTEUR TEURTEURadjusted previously adjusted previouslyRetained earnings 8,<strong>11</strong>8 8,389 8,929 9,387Generated capital -12,592 -12,321 3,433 3,891Shareholders' equity 13,527 13,798 27,152 27,610Pension accruals 19,448 19,177 18,559 18,101Long-term borrowed capital 25,215 24,944 29,274 28,816

KG of which <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong>holds a 49 % limited partner's share as of September30, 20<strong>11</strong> is not included in the consolidationbecause of negligibleness. The subsidiaries areconsolidated from the date on which control isobtained until the date on which control ends. Inconnection with first-time capital consolidation theacquisition cost of the participating interests areset off against the current values of the acquiredassets and liabilities including contingencies. Aremaining difference on the assets side is shownas goodwill. A remaining difference on the liabilitiesside is booked as income after reexamination.Assets and liabilities of the included companieswhich are transferred to the consolidated financialstatements are subject to the below mentioneduniform accounting and valuation methods unifomlybased on the asumption of the going concernprinciple.All relations within the Group as well as interimresults from trade between the included companiesare fully eliminated within the scope of consolidation.The companies included in the consolidatedfinancial statements are individually stated in Note30. The annual financial statements of <strong>Schumag</strong> BREnergy GmbH were prepared as of the balancesheet date of the parent company. For <strong>Schumag</strong>Romania S.R.L. interim financial statements wereavailable.


44 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements2.3 Accounting and valuation methods2.3.1 Foreign currency translation:The functional currency of <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> and of thedomestic Group companies is the Euro. Transactionsin foreign currency are recorded at theexchange rate which is effective at the time ofposting of the transaction. Assets and liabilities inforeign currency are valued at the exchange rateseffective on the balance sheet date. Translation differencesarising in this connection are recordedwith effect on net income.business as measured by their business operations,their transactions and their payment flows. Translationto the Euro Group currency takes placeaccording to the closing rate method: Balancesheet items are translated to euros at the exchangerates effective on the balance sheet date, expensesand income are translated to euros at monthlyaverage exchange rates. The resulting translationdifferences are shown without effect on net incomein a separate item under shareholders' equity.The foreign Group companies prepare their annualfinancial statements in their respective nationalcurrency in which they predominantly transactThe exchange rates of the foreign currencies in the Group have developed as follows:Current rate on balance sh. dateAverage rate1 EUR = 30-09-20<strong>11</strong> 30-09-<strong>2010</strong> <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> 2009/10Romania RON 4.32 4.27 4.23 4.22


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 452.3.2 Revenue recognition: Revenue recognition:Revenues are always recorded if it is likelythat the economic benefit will go to the Groupand that the amount of this benefit can be reliablydetermined. Revenues from goods sales arerecognized upon shipment of the products andgoods to customers if the transfer of risks to thebuyer can be assumed on the basis of variousindicators relating to the order. In this connectionprovisions for potential discounts or other pricereductions are recorded. Potential risks arisingfrom complaints about products and goods anddue to warranty are deferred. Revenues fromservices are recorded as soon as the service hasbeen rendered. Income from interest is recognizedpro rata temporis according to the outstandingreceivables as of the balance sheet date and theinterest rates to be applied according to theeffective interest method. Rental income fromoperating leases, in particular in connection withthe property held as a financial investment, arerecorded for the term of the corresponding leases.Revenues from long-term constructioncontracts as well as income under licenseagreements from the sale or granting of licencesto technologies do not accrue any more since thesale of the mechanical engineering division.


46Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements2.3.3 Borrowing costs: Borrowing costs whichcan be directly assigned to the acquisition,construction or manufacture of qualifying assetsare capitalized as part of the acquisition and/orproduction cost of the respective asset. Qualifyingassets are assets which require a considerable periodof time to be turned into the intended condition inwhich they are ready for use or ready for sale. Suchborrowing costs have so far not occurred. All otherborrowing costs are recorded with effect on netincome in the period of their incurrence.2.3.4 Earnings per share: The calculation ofearnings per share is based on the Group resultafter tax and the weighted number of commonshares issued on average. No dilution effectsresulted in the shown reporting period.2.3.5 Government grants: Government grantsare recorded only if it is sufficiently certain that theconnected conditions are met and that the grantswill be provided. Investment subsidies for theacquisition or construction of property, plant andequipment reduce the acquisition or productioncost of the respective assets. In subsequent periodsa corresponding reduction of scheduled depreciationwill therefore be effected. Other governmentgrants or government assistance are set up asdeferred income and recognized as income overthe underlying period or the expected life of therespective asset.2.3.6 Intangible assets: Intangible assets withan indefinite useful life do not exist at the company.Intangible assets with a limited useful life arevalued at cost less regularly scheduled straight-linedepreciation (amortization method). The useful lifeis determined based on the period of the underlyingcontract and on the expected use of the intangibleasset. Development cost is not capitalized andis recorded with effect on net income in the periodin which it has accrued. At the <strong>Schumag</strong> Group nodivision of the creation process into a research anda development phase can be effected. The mainreason for this is that the activities for the improvementof production and of the products are exclusivelyof an iterative nature. This means that theactivities are not based on clearly definable newproducts or production processes but that gradualand current improvements of always the sameproducts and production processes are concerned.The products made and the production processesbasically remain unchanged. It is therefore notpossible from a cost accounting point of view todetermine development cost on an accrual basis.Goodwill is not stated here either.Useful life of intangible assets <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> 2009/10Years YearsProduct rights, licences 5 5Software 5 5


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 472.3.7 Property, plant and equipment: Property,plant and equipment are valued at acquisition orproduction cost less accumulated depreciation. Theproduction cost of self-constructed plants includebeside direct costs, appropriate allocations ofmaterial and manufacturing overheads and anappropriate share of general administrative costsfor those areas involved in the construction of theplants. Borrowing costs have so far not been capitalizedbecause the manufacture of self-constructedplants and equipment does usually not require anysignificant period of time. The cost of general overhaulsis capitalized with the plant provided thatthe criteria for capitalization are fulfilled. Currentmaintenance and repair costs are immediatelyexpensed with effect on net income. As a matterof principle, property, plant and equipment arewritten off only upon their disposal from the Groupor if no more economic benefits are expected fromthe continued use or sale of the asset.Property, plant and equipment which are subjectto wear and tear are depreciated on a scheduledstraight-line basis over their useful life. The followinguseful lives are taken as a basis here:Useful life of property, plant & equipment <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> 2009/10Years YearsBuildings 7 - 50 7 - 50lndustrial plants and machinery 4 - 20 4 - 20Working and office equipment 3 - 23 3 - 232.3.8 Real property held as a financialinvestment: Real properties held as a financialinvestment include land and buildings held toobtain rental income and not for the company'sown production. At <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> parts of the landand buildings held at the company's headquartersin Aachen are rented out and held as a financialinvestment. Initial measurement at the time oftransfer is carried out according to IAS 16.5. Theland included in the real properties held as afinancial investment is shown in the balance sheetat the fair value. The valuation of the includedbuildings takes place at acquisition or productioncost less scheduled depreciation over the usefullife. The fair value of the real property is providedin Note 14.Useful life of real property held as a financial investment <strong>2010</strong>/<strong>11</strong> 2009/10Years YearsBuildings 10 - 40 10 - 402.3.9 Financial assets: Financial assets arevalued at acquisition cost.


48 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements2.3.10 Decreases in value: The book values ofintangible assets, of property, plant and equipmentand of the real property held as a financial investmentare reviewed as of each balance sheet date.If there are signs for a decrease in value, animpairment test will be carried out. Non-scheduleddepreciation will be effected if the recoverableamount is lower than the book value. If the reasonsfor the decrease in value no longer exist, the correspondingwrite-up will be effected (see Note 2.4.5).2.3.<strong>11</strong> Leasing: Leasing contracts are classifiedas either financing or operating leases.Leasing agreements in which the <strong>Schumag</strong> Groupacting as a lessee bears all essential chances andrisks connected with the ownership of an asset aretreated as finance leases. Assets used within afinance lease are recorded at the lower of the fairvalue of the leased property or the present value ofthe minimum lease payments; depreciation thentakes place over the estimated useful life or theshorter period of the lease. All other leasing agreementsin which the <strong>Schumag</strong> Group acts as a lesseeare classed as operating leases. In this casethe leasing payments to be made are expensedon a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.Leasing agreements in which the Group is thelessor and in which it does not transfer all essentialchances and risks connected with the title to anasset to the lessee are classed as operating leases.The leased asset remains on the Group balancesheet and is subject to scheduled depreciation.Revenue recognition of the leasing paymentsreceived is effected on a straight-line basis overthe term of the lease.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 492.3.12 Taxes: Actual tax refund claims and taxliabilities for the current period and earlier periodsare assessed at the amount in which a refund fromthe tax office and/or a payment to the tax office isexpected. The calculation of actual taxes is effectedon the basis of the tax rates and tax laws effectiveas of the balance sheet date in those countrieswhere the <strong>Schumag</strong> Group earns taxable income.Deferred taxes are recorded for temporary differencesbetween the values assigned in the IFRS andtax balance sheet of the consolidated companiesand for consolidation processes and tax losscarryforwards. Deferred tax assets are set up in theamount of the expected tax burden and/or taxrelief of the subsequent fiscal years. The underlyingtax rates are indicated in Note 10. Deferred taxassets are only included when it is sufficientlyprobable that the tax reduction will be realized.Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities areoffset if they relate to income taxes levied by thesame tax authority.2.3.13 Inventories: Inventories are carried atacquisition cost or production cost. If the marketprices and/or fair values based on the net realizablevalues are lower, these will be stated. The netrealizable value corresponds to the sales proceedsrealizable in normal transaction less costs to sellwhich can be directly allocated to the respectiveasset. Acquisition and production costs are determinedon the basis of the first-in-first-out method(Fifo). Production costs include, in addition todirect costs, an appropriate allocation of overheadcost of material and production using normal utilizationof the production plants provided that suchcosts are incurred in connection with the productionprocess. General administration costs are alsoincluded provided that they relate to the productionprocess. Financing costs are not included inproduction costs.as well as gains and losses from asset ceiling areset off as other results against retained earningswithout affecting income and are shown in theconsolidated statement of comprehensive incomeof the Group. Pension commitments in Germanyare determined with consideration of biometricaccounting principles according to the mortalitytables "Richttafeln 2005 G" published by KlausHeubeck.2.3.15 Other provisions: Other provisions areset up when there is a present obligation as aresult of a past event and when there is a probableoutflow of resources whose amount can be reliablyestimated. The amount of the provision is theprobable amount required to settle the obligation.Provisions are established for certain environmentalmeasures and risks if the measures are necessary asa result of current legal or regulatory obligationsand if the measures do not lead to the capitalizationof assets. The probable amount to settle long-termobligations is discounted if the effect of discountingis material. In this case, valuation of theprovision is done at present value. Interest effectsare shown in the financial result.2.3.14 Pension provisions: Pension provisionsare determined by means of actuarial calculationsbased on the projected unit credit method withconsideration of expected future compensationand pension adjustments. Actuarial gains or losses


50 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements2.3.16 Financial instruments: Financial instrumentsare contracts which give rise to a financialasset in one entity and to a financial liability orequity instrument in another entity. The balancingof financial instruments in connection with aregular-way purchase or sale is effected as of thedate of performance, i.e. the date on which theasset is delivered.Financial assets at <strong>Schumag</strong> are composed ofcredits granted and receivables as well as liquidfunds. First-time recognition of a financial asset iseffected at the fair value plus transaction costs.Transaction costs incurred in connection with thepurchase of financial assets valued at fair valuewith effect on net income are directly recordedwith effect on net income. Subsequent valuation iseffected according to the assignment of the financialassets to one of the following categories under IAS39 which are subject to different valuation principles:❚❚❚❚❚Financial assets valued at fair value witheffect on net income*Financial assets held to maturity*Loans and receivablesFinancial assets available for sale*Effective derivatives as hedging instruments** currently not relevant at the <strong>Schumag</strong> GroupIn the category of "loans and receivables" the tradeaccounts receivable, other financial receivablesincluded in the assets as well as liquid funds arerecorded at the <strong>Schumag</strong> Group. They are valued atamortized cost.at the original effective interest rate of the financialasset. If the reasons for the previous valuationadjustment no longer exist, the corresponding writeupsare effected by an adjustment of the valuationadjustment account, but not in excess of amortizedcost.Financial assets are written off if the contractualrights to payments arising from the financial assetsno longer exist, if the receivables are classed as noncollectibleand if all securities have been utilized orif financial assets are transferred with all essentialrisks and chances. If a written-off receivable is laterclassed as collectible again because of an eventwhich occurs after the write-off, the correspondingamount is recognized as income. An objective signof a decrease in value are temporary delays ofpayments which are not even eliminated after ademand for payment to the debtor or which existdue to a legal dispute.Financial liabilities at <strong>Schumag</strong> relate to financialdebts, trade accounts payable and other financialliabilities included in Other Liabilities. Financialliabilities are assigned to the following categories:❚❚Financial liabilities valued at fair value witheffect on net incomeFinancial liabilities valued at amortized costIf objective signs point to a substantial decrease inthe value of financial assets, an examination takesplace to determine if the carrying value exceeds thepresent value of the future cash-flows. If this is thecase, a valuation allowance amounting to thedifference in value is made using a valuation adjustmentaccount, and the loss due to the decrease invalue is recorded with effect on net income. Thepresent value of the future cash-flows is discounted


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 51First-time recognition of the financial liability iseffected at the fair value of the consideration receivedand/or at the value of the means of paymentreceived less any transaction costs incurred. Subsequentvaluation is effected at amortized cost for thecategory "Financial liabilities valued at amortizedcost", otherwise they are valued at the fair value.Financial liabilities are written off if the contractualliabilities have been paid, cancelled or expired.The amortized cost of a financial asset or of a financialliability is the amount at which a financial assetor a financial liability was valued at the first recording,less any redemption and any non-scheduleddepreciation for decreases in value or uncollectibleaccounts as well as plus or less the accumulateddistribution of any difference between the originalamount and the amount repayable upon maturity(premium), which is distributed over the term of thefinancial asset or the financial liability using theeffective interest method.For short-term receivables and liabilities the amortizedcost always corresponds to the nominalamount and/or the repayment amount. The fairvalues shown in the balance sheet usually correspondto the market prices of the financial assetsand liabilities. If no fair values are directly available,these are calculated using recognized valuationmethods and current market parameters. The fairvalue option is not used at the <strong>Schumag</strong> Group.Derivative financial instruments are shown attheir current value. The control of financial risks (inparticular currency risks) by using derivative financialinstruments is described in Note 24.


52 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements2.4 Essential discretionary decisions,estimates and assumptionsIn the preparation of the consolidated financialstatements the Board of Executive Directors usesdiscretionary decisions, estimates and assumptionsthat affect the reported amount of income, expenses,assets and debts as well as the contingenciesshown in the consolidated financial statements.The uncertainty connected with these assumptionsand estimates may lead to results, however,which, in future periods, call for considerableadjustments of the carrying value of the assets ordebts concerned. The assumptions made as of thebalance sheet date are of particular significancewith regard to the following items:2.4.1 Operating lease relationships – Groupas lessor: <strong>Schumag</strong> has concluded a leasingcontract for the industrial letting of real property.An analysis of the contractual terms and conditionsshowed that all relevant chances and risksconnected with the ownership of the properties letremain with the Group. The contract is thereforeshown in the balance sheet as an operating leaseso that the let property is recorded under realproperty held as a financial investment in accordancewith IAS 40.2.4.2 Taxes: Uncertainties exist with regard tothe amount and the time of accrual of future taxableprofits. If the actual results deviate from theassumptions made and/or from future changes ofsuch assumptions, it may be necessary to adjustthe already recorded tax revenue and tax expenses.Based on reasonable estimates <strong>Schumag</strong> sets upprovisions for potential effects of field tax audits.The amount of such provisions is based on variousfactors such as e.g. the experience from earlierfield tax audits and different interpretations of thetax regulations by the taxable company and thetax authority in charge.Deferred tax assets are also stated for tax losscarryforwards. Their realization depends on thefuture taxable profits of the respective companyand on the tax regulations. If there are doubtsabout the realization of tax loss carryforwards,the corresponding valuation allowances are madefor the deferred tax assets. Due to the uncertaintyconcerning the time of change in significant shareownership there is great uncertainty about theamount of tax loss carryforwards which are utilizablein Germany in future in view of the regulations onthe use of tax loss carryforwards in the event ofa change of share owners. Therefore a valuationallowance has been made for the determineddeferred tax assets.2.4.3 Pension provisions: The present valueof pension obligations is determined by means ofactuarial calculations. In this connection the actuarialvaluation is effected on the basis of variousassumptions. This also includes the determinationof the discount rates as well as estimates of thefuture development of wages and salaries as wellas annuities. Due to the complexity of the valuation,the underlying assumptions and their long-termcharacter a defined benefit pension obligationreacts extremely sensitive to changes in theseassumptions. The assumptions made by <strong>Schumag</strong>which are reviewed as of each balance sheet dateare stated in Note 20.2.4.4 Other provisions: Other provisions alsocover risks resulting from legal disputes and proceedings.In order to determine the amount of theprovisions, the facts relating to each case, the sizeof the claim, claims awarded in similar cases andindependent expert advice are considered alongwith assumptions regarding the probability of asuccessful claim and the range of possible claims.The actual costs can deviate from these estimates.


SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 532.4.5 Non-scheduled depreciation (impairments):It is to be determined as of each balancesheet date whether or not there are signs for apotential decrease in the value of intangible assetsand of property, plant and equipment and in thevalue of real property held as a financial investment.In addition, the Group determines as of eachbalance sheet date if there are signs for a de-creasein the value of financial assets.In the impairment tests to be carried out in thepresence of signs for decreases in value the balancesheet carrying values of the assets are comparedwith the recoverable amounts of the assets. Therecoverable amount is the higher of the net realizablevalue and the value in use of the asset. Thevalue in use is determined for each individual assetand corresponds to the cash value of the expectedcash flow. If no recoverable amount can be determinedat the level of the individual asset, thedetermination will be effected for cash generatingunits to which the corresponding asset is assigned.For the definition of the cash generating units thesegments are used (see Note 5). For the determinationof the value in use a pre-tax interest rate correspondingto market conditions is used. The determinationsare based on budget calculations andforecasts by the management which usually comprisea planning period of three years and includeassumptions for short to medium-term marketdevelopments. Cash flow forecasts which exceedthe detailed planning period are calculated on thebasis of suitable growth rates.The estimate of the cash flows and the assumptionsare based on the information available as ofthe respective balance sheet date and may deviatefrom actual developments. Assumptions and estimatesrefer, among other things, to expectedproceeds from product sales, to the profitability ofthe asset, to the discount rate as well as to materialand energy prices.A previously recorded impairment loss is reversedonly if, since the inclusion of the last impairmentloss, a change has resulted in the assumptionsused to determine the recoverable amount. Thewrite-up is limited to the effect that the carryingvalue of an asset must not exceed its recoverableamount nor the carrying value which would haveresulted after consideration of scheduled depreciationif no impairment loss had been recorded forthe asset in previous years.

SCHUM<strong>AG</strong> <strong>AG</strong> 79Capital managementThe most important aims of the capital managementof <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> are to secure the continued existenceof the company, to obtain a reasonable minimuminterest on the capital employed, to obtain a highrating of its credit standing and to create sufficientliquidity reserves. With consideration of all interestedparties involved (shareholders, employeesand other stakeholders) these aims are to beachieved in particular by a reduction of the costof capital, an optimization of the capital structureand the use of an effective risk management.In the past fiscal year as well as during the periodof preparation of the financial statements thecapital management continued to concentrate onthe maintenance of the required liquidity. This wasin particular accomplished by the sale of assets.In addition, we are looking for further financingoptions and discuss a large number of differentforms of financing which are to secure the continuedneed for capital.The economic equity currently corresponds to thebalance sheet equity. As of September 30, 20<strong>11</strong>the capital ratio decreased, in particular due to theresult, from 27 % to 26 %. In the previous year thedisposal of own shares resulted in a change in thecapital structure.❚ 20. PENSION PROVISIONSIn addition to government pension schemes, theemployees of <strong>Schumag</strong> <strong>AG</strong> who joined the companybefore January 1, 1994 are entitled to benefits basedon the company pension benefit plan of January 1,1994. Benefits depend on years of service. In addition,special pension commitments exist for currentand former members of the Board of ExecutiveDirectors.
