Markus Steilemann - Covestro AG - CEO & Chairman of Management Board
Thank you very much, Ronald, and hello, and a warm welcome also from my side to our first quarter call. The highlights of the first quarter were a volume increase of 11% year-on-year. This represents the second quarter in a row with a positive volume growth.
However, lower prices burden sales, which came in at EUR 3.5 billion. We achieved an EBITDA of EUR 273 million, approaching the upper end of our quarterly guidance range. The free operating cash flow shows the usual seasonal pattern with minus EUR 129 million. Overall, we are fully on track to achieve our full year 2024 guidance.
