Net financial income / expenses

The net financial expenses, representing the balance of financial income and financial expenses, increased from €48.4 million in the first half of 2017 to €53.9 million in the first six months of this year. Current interest expense on financial liabilities decreased thanks to the corporate actions carried out in 2017, whereas currency effects had improved the level of net financial expenses in the first half of last year.

Income taxes

In the consolidated interim financial statements, income taxes for the current reporting period are calculated on the basis of the expected income tax rate for the full year.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the period accruing to the KION GROUP AG shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period (H1 2018: 117,929,171 no-par-value shares; H1 2017: 110,680,763 no-par-value shares; Q2 2018: 117,929,171 no-par-value shares; Q2 2017: 112,713,426 no-par-value shares). In the first half of 2018, the KION Group generated net income accruing to the shareholders of KION GROUP AG of €148.5 million (H1 2017: €144.0 million). Information about determining the net income (loss) for the period accruing to the KION GROUP AG shareholders can be found in the consolidated income statement. Basic earnings per share for the reporting period came to €1.26 (H1 2017: €1.30). The 160,829 no-par-value treasury shares repurchased by KION GROUP AG were not included in this figure as at 30 June 2018 (30 June 2017: 164,486).

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adding the potential dilutive no-par-value shares that employees can obtain for free under the employee share option programme to the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share was based on a weighted average for the first half of 2018 of 117,965,044 no-par-value shares issued (H1 2017: 110,729,900 no-par-value shares; Q2 2018: 117,964,950 no-par-value shares; Q2 2017: 112,763,760 no-par-value shares). Diluted earnings per share for the reporting period came to €1.26 (H1 2017: €1.30).
