It was possible to cover the preliminary purchase prices calculated as an accumulated total
of around €130.0 million from cash on hand. This related mainly to technology, customer
relations, and goodwill. It will only be possible to determine the level of assets and liabilities
to be recognized within the initial consolidation. The level of the assets and debts to be
recognized in the initial consolidation can only be determined after the conclusion of the
final purchase price adjustment as part of the purchase price allocations that remain to
be performed. The short period of time between the acquisition dates and the issuing of
the annual financial statements means that no reliable carrying amounts for the purchase
price allocation are available yet.
