paragon Retracts Revenue and Earnings Forecast as a result of COVID-19 Pandemic

Delbrück, Germany, March 27, 2020 - paragon [ISIN DE0005558696] expects that the business goals for 2020 will not be met as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Reduced orders and logistics issues affecting the fully consolidated financial investment Voltabox as well as signals from customers in the automotive industry regarding vehicle sales over the further course of the year indicate a longer shutdown of plants and slower restart of production than previously expected. Therefore, the management has retracted the revenue and earnings forecast for the current fiscal year. In light of decreased clarity around the economic consequences of the ongoing pandemic, a reliable forecast is not possible at this point.
