Objective of the GESCO portfolio strategy: enhance value of investment portfolio organically and through acquisitions
Respective managing directors continue to have exclusive operating responsibility for GESCO Group companies
As the majority shareholder GESCO AG has “3 levers”
1. Appointment of best possible management
2. Prioritisation of investment projects within the individual companies which promise the highest return on capital employed in the long term
3. Active consulting and support role of shareholder: Monthly discussions, regular exchange, sparring, best practice Setting focal themes on strategy days: digitalisation and Industry 4.0 Support for technical optimisation projects for profitable growth and
cost efficiency, from the beginning of a project to its implementation

The environment
Forecast GDP growth: 1.7 % to 1.8 % Forecast VDMA: stagnation at best Agricultural machinery and oil industry: still no growth impetus „Dieselgate“ burdens automotive industry‘s propensity to invest Political risks (Brexit decision, Turkey) increase uncertainty Outcome of US elections unclear
Industrial customers still generally showing reluctance to invest New growth stimuli still lacking in capital goods industry
Our measures: Short term: cost reduction, questioning investments Medium term: optimisation projects on cost and opportunities side
