Group operating cash flow margin was 22.4% (Q4/22: 21.6%). Free cash flow before acquisitions, dividends and lease liabilities increased to €888 million (Q4/22: €822 million). Free cash flow after acquisitions, dividends and lease liabilities increased to €814 million (Q4/22: €742 million).

In FY/23, Group operating cash flow increased by 5% to €2,131 million (FY/22: €2,031 million) with a margin of 9.6% (2022: 9.4%). Free cash flow before acquisitions, dividends and lease liabilities increased to €1,024 million

Fresenius Kabi’s operating cash flow increased by 46% to €434 million (Q4/22: €298 million) with a margin of 21.7% (Q4/22: 14.6%) mainly driven mainly driven by an improved working capital management. In FY/23, operating cash flow increased by 21% to €1,015 million (2022: €841 million) with a margin of 12.7% (FY/22: 10.7%).

Fresenius Helios’ operating cash flow decreased by 9% to €867 million (Q4/22: €956 million) mainly due to phasing effects of receivables in Spain and the very strong cash flow in the prior year. The operating cash flow margin was 27.2% (Q4/22: 31.5%). In FY/23, operating cash flow decreased by 9% to €1.244 million (FY/22: €1.367 million) with a margin of 10.1% (FY/22: 11.7%).

Before special items

The cash conversion rate (CCR), which is defined as the ratio of adjusted free cash flow1 to EBIT before special items was 1.0 in FY/23 (2022: 0.9). This positive development is due to the increased cash flow focus across the Group including inventory management, working capital management and cash collection.

Group debt increased by 8% (8% in constant currency) to €15,830 million
(Dec. 31, 20222: € 14,708 million). Group net debt remained broadly flat at € 13,268 million (Dec. 31, 20222: € 13,307 million). In constant currency, Group net debt decreased by 1%.

As of December 31, 2023, the net debt/EBITDA ratio was 3.76x3,4  (Dec. 31, 2022: 3.80x2,3,4). This is a strong 27 bps reduction compared to Q3/23 (4,03x3,4) and is mainly driven by the good cash flow development in Q4/23.

Fresenius expects the net debt/EBITDA5 ratio to be within the self-imposed corridor of 3.0 to 3.5x by the end of 2024. This is expected to be driven by reducing net debt and by the operational performance at the Operating Companies.

This assumption does not include further potential divestment activities, however, includes the fact that due to legal restrictions as a result of the use of government compensation and reimbursement payments for increased energy costs provided for in the Hospital Financing Act, however, Fresenius will not propose to the 2024 Annual General Meeting to distribute a dividend for the 2023 fiscal year. Irrespective of the legally required suspension of dividend payments for the 2023 fiscal year, Fresenius will maintain its progressive dividend policy in the future and continues to aim to increase the dividend in line with growth in earnings per share (in constant currency, before special items), or at least maintain the dividend at the previous year’s level.

ROIC was 5.2% in FY/23 (FY/22: 5.6%) mainly due to the higher tax rate. The Operating Companies showed a ROIC of 5.6%.

Structural productivity targets significantly exceeded – 2025 target raised 

The groupwide cost savings program progressed well ahead of plan. Within the program, Fresenius realized ~€280 million of structural cost savings at EBIT level in FY/23. With that, the originally anticipated saving of ~€200 million for FY/23 was significantly exceeded. In the same period, one-time costs of ~€220 million were incurred to achieve these savings.

Due to the excellent progress of the measures implemented across the entire Group, Fresenius raises its target for the second time. Fresenius now expects to achieve annual sustainable cost savings of ~€400 million at EBIT level by 2025 (before: ~€350 million). To reach this new target, one-time costs between ~€80 and €100 million are anticipated between 2024 and 2025. For 2024, total cost savings of ~€330 to €350 million are expected. This corresponds to incremental cost savings of ~€50 to €70 million compared to 2023.

The targeted programs involve all business segments and the Corporate Center. Key elements include measures to optimize procurement, processes, sales and administrative costs, as well as fostering digitalization.

Operating Company Fresenius Kabi

Revenue of Helios Spain increased despite the already strong prior year quarter by 6% (5% in constant currency) to €1,289 million (Q4/22: €1,214 million) driven by ongoing strong activity levels.

Deconsolidation of Fresenius Medical Care successfully completed 

Fresenius successfully completed the deconsolidation of Fresenius Medical Care. This was a historic step and a landmark on the way forward to #FutureFresenius. The complexity of the Group structure was significantly reduced, and the governance structure were simplified, enabling more targeted, faster, and agile decisions at both, Fresenius and Fresenius Medical Care. Fresenius remains the largest shareholder of Fresenius Medical Care with an unchanged 32% stake.

The change in legal form took effect on November 30, 2023. Fresenius Medical Care now operates as Fresenius Medical Care AG. As a result of the deconsolidation, the investment in Fresenius Medical Care is now classified in accordance with IAS 28 (at equity method).

As part of the subsequent IFRS 5 remeasurements as of September 30, 2023 and November 30, 2023, a non-cash special item of €1,115 million attributable to the shareholders of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA was recognized in the consolidated financial statements of Fresenius as of December 31, 2023.

Going forward, the proportionate share of 32% of Fresenius Medical Care will be presented as a separate line in Fresenius Group’s P&L and balance sheet. Dividends received from Fresenius Medical Care will also be reported as a separate line as part of the cash flow statement.

IAS 28 requires a full purchase price allocation (PPA) from the date on which the investment in Fresenius Medical Care was recognized as an associated company. The accounting for the PPA will be treated as special item.

For reasons of simplification and comparability, Fresenius will present net income with and without the equity result in the future.

Transformation Fresenius Vamed progressing well

Further good progress was made in Q4/23 with the far-reaching restructuring program toincrease Fresenius Vamed’s profitability which was initiated during 2023. After €10 million in Q3/23, Fresenius Vamed has for the second consecutive quarter shown a positive EBIT1 with €21 million in Q4/23 (FY/23: -€16 million). The EBIT margin1 in Q4/23 was 3.5% and -0.7% in 2023 (20221: 0.8%).

Revenue from continued business was €589 million in Q4/23. Organic growth of the continued business declined by 5 % mainly due to some contract timing issues as well as more rigorous vetting in the Project Business. In 2023, revenue from continued businesses was €2,201 million.

Before special items

Total revenue of Fresenius Vamed amounted to €595 million (Q4 2022: €712 million) and declined by 16% (-17% in constant currency). The decline is primarily related to discontinued businesses as part of the transformation and the associated adjustments and postponements in the Project business. In 2023, total revenue of Fresenius Vamed remained flat at €2,356 million (2022: €2,359 million).

The ongoing transformation resulted in negative special items of €113 million in Q4/23 mainly related to cessation of activities, asset re-evaluations and restructuring costs resulting in write-downs and provisions. The negative special items were predominantly booked as non-cash items. In 2023, a total of negative special items of €554 million were incurred.

The positive development is expected to continue in 2024. Fresenius Vamed reiterates its targets and expects to reach the structural EBIT margin band of 4% to 6% by 2025 as set out in the #FutureFresenius Financial Framework.

Group and segment outlook for 20241

Fresenius expects general cost inflation to continue at a slightly lower level in the 2024 financial year and the current geopolitical tensions to persist. Fresenius also expects interest rates to remain at a similar level to 2023. Irrespective of this, the Management Board considers the business outlook for the Group to be positive and expects a successful financial year 2024.

For 2024, Group organic revenue is expected to grow between 3% to 6%. Group constant currency EBIT2 is expected to grow in the rage of 4% to 8%.

Fresenius Kabi expects organic revenue growth in a mid-single-digit percentage range in 2024. The EBIT margin2 is expected to be around 15% (structural margin band: 14% to 17%). Fresenius Helios expects organic revenue to grow in a low to mid-single digit percentage range in 2024. The EBIT margin2 is expected to be within the structural margin band of 9% to 11%. Fresenius Vamed expects organic revenue to grow (Continued Business) in a mid-single-digit percentage range in 2024. The EBIT margin2 is expected to be 1 to 2 below the structural margin band of 4% to 6%.
