Six-month figures for financial year 2009/10
The consolidated net loss (after taxes) of IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG in the first half of FY 2009/10 (1 April 2009 to 30 September 2009) amounted to € -398 million (H1 2008/09: consolidated net profit of € 240 million). The loss is mainly due to the negative fair value result as the fair value gains on the assets side of the balance sheet were significantly exceeded by the fair value losses on the equity and liabilities side. Loan loss provisions also increased as anticipated. Significant gains were generated on the remeasurement of compensation agreements, some profit-participation certificates and silent partnership contributions. These were reported under other operating income.
