DB Cargo verfehlt voraussichtlich die »schwarze Null«

Güterverkehrstochter der Deutschen Bahn macht 2024 erneut Verluste wegen Abschreibungen in Großbritannien.

Quick Look

  • DB Cargo verfehlt laut Cargo-Chef Bernhard Osburg 2024 die von der EU geforderte »schwarze Null«.
  • Grund sind rund 260 Millionen Euro Verlustabschreibungen bei einer britischen Tochtergesellschaft.
  • Das Unternehmen muss erneut mit der EU verhandeln.

Why It Matters

Die EU-Kommission hat DB Cargo in einem Beihilfeverfahren einen Sanierungskurs auferlegt, um ab 2026 wieder Gewinne zu erzielen.

Font size

Die DB Cargo kämpft weiter ums Überleben. Eigenen Angaben zufolge wird die Güterverkehrstochter der Deutschen Bahn in diesem Jahr die von der EU-Kommission vorgeschriebene »schwarze Null« verfehlen und weiterhin Verluste machen.

Grund dafür seien einmalig anfallende Verlustabschreibungen bei einer zum Verkauf stehenden britischen Tochtergesellschaft, wie Cargo-Chef Bernhard Osburg der Nachrichtenagentur dpa sagte. Die daraus resultierenden Wertberichtigungen von rund 260 Millionen Euro belasteten das Ergebnis des Güterverkehrskonzerns, hieß es aus Unternehmenskreisen. Es werde daher absehbar in diesem Jahr eine schwarze Null kaum zu schaffen sein.

Erneute Gespräche mit der EU

Das Unternehmen muss daher erneut mit der Europäischen Union in Verhandlungen gehen. Die Kommission hatte dem Konzern in einem sogenannten Beihilfeverfahren einen umfassenden Sanierungskurs auferlegt, mit dem Ziel, ab 2026 operativ wieder in die Gewinnzone zu kommen.

Osburg will die EU überzeugen, dass die Sanierung innerhalb Deutschlands auf einem guten Weg sei. Ohne die Abschreibungen bei der englischen Tochter wäre die schwarze Null in diesem Jahr erreicht worden, betonte er. Schon im vergangenen Jahr lag das Ergebnis nach Steuern und Zinsen (Ebit) mit minus 58 Millionen Euro knapp vor dem Ziel.
