While the dividend yield is in the top 25% of German market payers, its history shows volatility and unreliability over the past decade.

Recent earnings for H1 2024 showed a decline, with sales at €643.5 million and net income at €31.86 million, compared to €672.97 million and €40.49 million respectively a year ago, potentially affecting future dividend sustainability despite its high yield in the German market.
