After the previous year’s heavy losses, we focused on our strengths, parted with companies that were no longer strategically important and gained significant new momentum. We vigorously and successfully embarked on several strategic initiatives: We invested in competitive offerings, services and technology of important group companies. This generated a double digit leaps in annual returns for the group company OTTO, the fashion brand Bonprix which oper- ates in 29 countries, and our service provider Hermes. We are strengthening our strengths. New business segments were consistently expanded. Otto Group Media has made a good start and as one of the fastest growing start-ups in Europe, Collins is heading for sales around the EUR 100 million mark. We build on the new. We attained substantial progress with our business concepts that were still experiencing problems the previous year. Crate and Barrel, the Mytoys Group and Sportscheck are winning new customers and continuing to grow. As announced we withdrew from group companies that do not offer sufficient synergies or have a better chance of developing with different owners. Alba Moda, JM Bruneau, OTTO Office and others have been sold. Followed by the trad- ing activities of the 3SI Group, which we have shown under Discounted Operations. We focus. Against this backdrop, the managing partners and the Executive Board initiated a “Kulturwandel”-process across the entire Otto Group at the end of last year. Our 50,000 or so employees will be more customer-oriented and be able to work faster and more independently. And so will we, the Executive Board. My verdict on this challenging and exciting year: The Otto Group is back on track.
