1 Rebased to the closing price of Deutsche Post shares on  December .
Deutsche Post shares register positive trend
Despite the uncertainties on the equities markets, Deutsche Post shares closed  with
an overall gain. e shares recorded their greatest price increase at the start of the year
aer publication of the gures for . On  April, the shares beneted from the posi-
tive response to presentation of our Strategy  to reach a new all-time high of ..
However, the share price could not withstand the generally negative market trend as the
year progressed. From the middle of the year Deutsche Post shares declined, reaching
an annual low of . on  October . In view of the sound third-quarter gures
and an overall positive market trend, however, the shares subsequently made up for
most of that loss. Price levels were impacted positively by Moody’s credit rating upgrade
from “Baa” to “A” in September. With a closing price of ., our shares ended the
year up .  year-on-year, thus charting similar progress to the  (up . ) and the
   (up . ). e shares generated a gain of .  on a total return basis,
i. e., including the dividend per share. Average daily Xetra trading volumes remained
just below the prior-year level at . million shares.
Closing price: €27.05
