The Audi Group’s balance sheet total grew by 19.4 percent over the past fiscal year to
EUR 22,578 (18,910) million.
Non-current assets remained on a par with the previous year at EUR 8,325 (8,285) million,
due in particular to higher property, plant and equipment and higher receivables from de-
rivative currency hedging instruments in conjunction with lower development expenditure
recognized as an intangible asset.
The 34.1 percent rise in current assets to EUR 14,253 (10,625) million was largely attribut-
able to increased cash and cash equivalents (up EUR 1,856 million) and trade receivables (up
EUR 309 million). In addition, inventories grew by EUR 552 million, primarily as a result of
initial consolidation of companies in fiscal 2007.
The overall volume of capital investments rose to EUR 2,115 (1,925) million, mostly as a
result of higher product investment. Property, plant and equipment accounted for EUR 1,527
(1,256) million of this total, representing a rise of 21.6 percent.
The equity of the Audi Group rose by 15.0 percent to EUR 8,355 (7,265) million. This
change was attributable principally to the cash infusion of EUR 428 million by Volkswagen to
the capital reserve of AUDI AG and allocation to other retained earnings of the balance re-
maining after the transfer of profit (EUR 242 million).
The equity ratio for the Audi Group was 37.0 (38.4) percent.
