Ratio of earnings to fixed charges

As our continuing operations reported losses before income taxes for the periods presented, the ratio would indicate less than a one-to-one coverage. Therefore the Euro amount of the deficiency is disclosed for these periods.

 

* Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2013 were inadequate to cover fixed charges by €14,489 thousand
** Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2014 were inadequate to cover fixed charges by €16,453 thousand
*** Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2015 were inadequate to cover fixed charges by €29,114 thousand
**** Earnings for the year ended December 31, 2016 were inadequate to cover fixed charges by €23,612 thousand

For the purpose of the computation of the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings include loss from continuing operations before income taxes, adjusted for fixed charges in the extent they affect current year earnings.
