Wiesloch – The MLP Group achieved record total revenue in the first quarter of 2024. MLP was once again able to fully leverage the Group's broad and strategically interlinked revenue structure, thereby continuing to successfully withstand the unfavourable economic climate. Accordingly, MLP significantly increased earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) to EUR 37.0 million (Q1 2023: EUR 32.4 million). The extremely strong revenue growth in the Wealth competence field was the main contributor to this increase. MLP benefited from increased revenues in wealth management and the interest rate business compared to the same quarter of the previous year. In addition, the MLP Group was able to achieve new record levels for key figures related to future revenue development, specifically assets under management and managed premium volume in non-life insurance. MLP confirms the current forecast, according to which MLP still expects EBIT at EUR 75 to 85 million for 2024. At the same time, the MLP Group reaffirms its plan to record EBIT of EUR 100 to 110 million by the end of 2025.
