Detailed chartBased on the current burdens and restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Management Board estimates that the situation will only begin to recede in the second half of 2021. This assumption is subject to considerable uncertainty. The FY/21 earnings are, hence, expected to be very meaningfully impacted by COVID-19 effects. In particular, the significant acceleration of mortality among dialysis patients due to COVID-19 is expected to have a material impact on Fresenius Medical Care’s results and hence on Fresenius Group’s net income growth.
The accelerated impact of excess mortality caused by COVID-19 will persist in 2021. Accordingly, Fresenius Medical Care expects a significant adverse annualization effect on the number of dialysis treatments performed.
Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Management Board continues to assess the business outlook of the Fresenius Group as positive. We continue to see steadily growing demand for our products, services, and therapies worldwide.
