Frank­furt am Main, 15 Febru­ary 2024 – NEON EQUI­TY AG (NEON EQUI­TY ISIN: DE000A3DW408), a foun­der-led inves­tor and growth enabler, announ­ces its preli­mi­na­ry, unau­di­ted key finan­cial figu­res for 2023 accor­ding to HGB accoun­ting and was able to signi­fi­cant­ly increase its pro­fit. EBIT almost dou­bled from EUR 9.2 mil­li­on in the 2022 finan­cial year to around EUR 17 mil­li­on in 2023. Pro­fit befo­re taxes amoun­ted to around EUR 20 mil­li­on, com­pared to EUR 12.9 mil­li­on in the 2022 finan­cial year, and also bene­fi­ted from a posi­ti­ve finan­cial result. Net pro­fit for the year also increased signi­fi­cant­ly by more than 58% year-on-year to EUR 19 mil­li­on. NEON EQUI­TY was thus able to con­ti­nue its pro­fi­ta­ble growth in the 2023 finan­cial year. The posi­ti­ve busi­ness deve­lo­p­ment is pri­ma­ri­ly the result of the strong invest­ment busi­ness in 2023 and the port­fo­lio expan­si­on. NEON EQUI­TY inves­ted in the inno­va­ti­ve health tech com­pa­ny Easy­M­o­ti­onS­kin Tec and the elec­tric car manu­fac­tu­rer Elaris, among others. The­se invest­ments were suc­ces­si­ve­ly increased in the past year. NEON EQUI­TY has also sup­port­ed num­e­rous com­pa­nies in their growth finan­cing, for exam­p­le the inter­na­tio­nal nuclear fusi­on com­pa­ny ALPHA RING.

NEON EQUI­TY is aiming for fur­ther pro­fit increa­ses in 2024 and plans to sys­te­ma­ti­cal­ly expand its invest­ment port­fo­lio. The focus is on ESG-com­pli­ant com­pa­nies that are acti­ve in future mar­kets. NEON EQUI­TY will also con­ti­nue to sup­port com­pa­nies with their growth stra­tegy and capi­tal mar­ket tran­sac­tions.

Tho­mas Olek, CEO and foun­der of NEON EQUI­TY: ​“2023 was a very important year for us. We were able to grow stron­gly, fur­ther expand our net­work and increase our invest­ments in future-ori­en­ted, inno­va­ti­ve com­pa­nies. The posi­ti­ve key finan­cial figu­res for 2023 under­line our strength as an invest­ment com­pa­ny. The cur­rent year will also be cha­rac­te­ri­zed by growth at NEON EQUI­TY - pro­mi­sing tran­sac­tions and IPOs are alre­a­dy plan­ned for our cli­ents in the first half of the year.”
