  • The performance development in local, long distance
    and rail freight transport as well as the demand for train- paths is likely to be weaker in 2020. Negative effects to an extent not yet foreseeable result from the effects of the coronavirus.
  • By implementing attractiveness-­­increasing measures,
    we are striving to improve customer satisfaction.
  • For 2020, we expect a further improvement in punctuality due to the consistent continuation of the Strong Rail measures despite increased construction activity and increasing transport volume.
  • We will continue our measures to reduce the greenhouse gas intensity of the traction current in Germany through a gradual increase in the share of renewable energies.
  • In 2020, we will conduct our fifth Group-­­wide employee survey to detect trends and changes and to find out which measures are effective and where we still need to take action. We expect a slight improvement in the survey
    results.
  • Due to the expected significantly lower development of adjusted EBIT, along with a simultaneous significant increase in capital employed, the ROCE is expected to decline.
  • Debt coverage is expected to decline among others as a result of the expected lower operating profit.
