Qualified audit opinion for the subsidiary LION Smart GmbH

Baar, 12 May 2021 - The LION Smart GmbH has voluntarily had its 2020 annual financial statements audited. KPMG AG ("KPMG"), the auditing firm appointed for this purpose, today notified the management of LION Smart GmbH to issue a qualified audit opinion on the annual financial statements of LION Smart GmbH for the financial year 2020. The current state of knowledge indicates that a similar qualification of the audit opinion at the level of the voluntary audit of the consolidated financial statements of LION E-Mobility AG is to be expected.

In its audit of the revenue recognition, KPMG assumes that LION Smart GmbH may not recognize the revenue in the full amount of the actual invoicing to the customer (principal, so-called gross recognition), but rather, since in KPMG's view, it only acts as an intermediary, only a reduced value as revenue (agent, so-called net recognition). For this reason alone, KPMG will only issue a qualified audit opinion.

EBIT and EBITDA of LION Smart GmbH remain unaffected by the reporting of sales.
