Volkswagen AG’s group loss after tax for fiscal year 2015 of EUR1.361bn will have a corresponding negative effect on the group results of Porsche SE which holds a 30.8% stake in the Wolfsburg automaker.

“Taking into account this development, Porsche SE’s group loss before tax will presumably amount to EUR456m for fiscal year 2015,” Porsche said in a statement on Friday (22 April). “Due to a positive effect from tax refunds, the group loss after tax will presumably amount to EUR273m. However, net profit will be EUR871m “due to the dividend received from Volkswagen AG in fiscal year 2015 for fiscal year 2014”, Porsche added.
