#CommittedToLife

 

We save and improve human lives with affordable, accessible, and innovative healthcare products and the highest quality in clinical care.

Fresenius Kabi has agreed to collaborate with Phlow Corporation, a public benefit company, to expand access to affordable sterile injectables formulated for U.S. children’s hospitals and to help strengthen the supply chain for U.S.-sourced API and essential medicines. The companies will work together to supply private-labelled products, co-develop and manufacture novel products and make essential medicines rapidly available in the event of a public health emergency.

Ensure financial flexibility, maintain our investment grade rating, limit refinancing risks and optimize the cost of capital are the main objectives in Fresenius’s financing strategy.

To remain financially flexible, we maintain adequate liquidity headroom. We are committed to our investment grade rating, which provides us with advantages with respect to market access and funding costs.

Our refinancing risks are limited due to a balanced maturity profile that is characterized by a broad range of maturities with a high proportion of mid- and long-term debt up to 2033. Relevant financing instruments include bonds, Schuldschein Loans and bank loans. In addition, Fresenius maintains a commercial paper program. 

Another key objective of Fresenius’ financing strategy is to optimize the cost of capital by employing an adequate mix of equity and debt.

In 2025, deleveraging will remain a key priority. Fresenius has upgraded its leverage target corridor to 2.5 to 3.0x net debt/EBITDA (previously 3.5 to 3.0x). This allows us to stay financially flexible while solidifying our solid investment grade rating.

Operating room at a HELIOS clinic

Fresenius Helios is one of the largest and most medically-advanced operators of both in- and outpatient care in Europe, offering expertise in all areas of clinical care. 

Fresenius Helios owns and operates Helios hospitals in Germany and Quirónsalud hospitals in Spain and Latin America. Every year more than 24 million patients choose Helios for medical treatment, of whom 22.2 million are outpatients. Fresenius Helios is committed to the highest quality clinical and nursing care.

 

Helios

Based in Berlin, Helios owns and operates 87 clinics, including seven maximum care hospitals in Erfurt, Berlin-Buch, Duisburg, Wuppertal, Schwerin, Krefeld and Wiesbaden. Helios hospitals provide inpatient care to about 1.2 million patients annually.

As the only hospital group in Germany Helios operates its own hospitals ranging from basic care starting at 46 beds to maximum care with 1,500 beds. The acute care hospitals offer nearly the full spectrum of medical services at a high level of quality. Some Helios clinics are renowned beyond Germany’s borders for their outstanding medical achievements.

By combining senior citizens’ homes and acute medical care, Helios gives residents access to optimum, fast medical care. Helios has already implemented this intelligent and trend-setting concept of short distances for seniors at nine of its hospitals.

Helios strives to expand its integrated medical care offering. This is made possible through cooperations with non-hospital providers, especially local doctors’ practices, as well as our own medical care centers close to the hospitals. Our medical care centers are only established where they offer a useful complement to our hospitals and when high-quality outpatient care cannot be guaranteed over a long period through cooperations with local doctors’ practices. In medical care centers, patients are treated before or after an inpatient hospital stay. An important goal is to avoid unnecessary duplication in examinations, because high quality and competent medical care in conjunction with the rational use of resources best serves the well-being of patients.

Quironsalud

Quirónsalud operates 57 hospitals, 100 outpatient centers and around 300 occupational risk prevention centers. Active in every major metropolitan region of Spain, and now with seven hospitals in Latin America, Madrid-based Quirónsalud has more than 49,000 employees.

The Healthcare of Tomorrow

 The healthcare of the future will be ever more digitalized, networked and specialized.

Corporate governance covers all aspects connected with the management, supervision and transparency of companies. Key elements of good corporate governance are efficient company management, the protection of shareholders' interests and transparent corporate communication.

The Supervisory Board of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA and the Management Board of the general partner of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA, Fresenius Management SE, issued the Declaration of Conformity pursuant to Section 161 of the German Stock Corporation Act in December 2024.

Please find below the 2024 Corporate Governance Declaration and Report of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA.

The Management Board takes diversity into account when filling executive positions. At Fresenius, the individual’s qualifications are the paramount consideration in all hiring and promotion decisions. This means that women and men with comparable qualifications and suitability have the same career opportunities. Fresenius will continue to consistently act upon this principle – in compliance with the obligations arising from the Act on the Equal Participation of Women and Men in Leadership Positions in the Private Sector and the Public Sector (FüPoG I) and the Act to Supplement and Amend the Regulations for the Equal Participation of Women in Leadership Positions in the Private Sector and the Public Sector (FüPoG II):

 

For the Supervisory Board of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA, the law requires a quota of at least 30% women and 30% men. These mandatory quotas were again met by the Supervisory Board elections in 2021.

 

The legally stipulated targets for the Management Board do not apply to Fresenius Management SE or to Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA. Due to its legal form, Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA does not have a Management Board. Fresenius Management SE is not listed on the stock exchange and is also not subject to co-determination. In accordance with the legal requirements, the Management Board specifies composition of the two management levels directly below the Management Board as follows:

 

The first management level includes all Senior Vice Presidents and Vice Presidents who have an employment contract with Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA and who report directly to a Member of the Management Board. Through a decision effective January 1, 2021 the Management Board has set a target, which has to be met by December 31, 2025, and calls for a proportion of women of 30.0% at the first management level.

 

The second management level includes all Vice Presidents who have an employment contract with Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA and who report directly to a member of the first management level. Through the decision effective January 1, 2021, the Management Board has set a target, which has to be met by December 31, 2025, and calls for a proportion of women of 30.0% at the second management level. The Management Board believes that inclusion in the company-wide long-term incentive programs is a strong indicator that an individual holds a leading executive position. The proportion of women in this group of our top 1,800 executives was approximately 34% as of December 31, 2022.

Stock Option Plans and Employee Participation Program

Our corporate philosophy "entrepreneur in the enterprise" implies not only that our employees are driven by a spirit of entrepreneurial responsibility but that they also have a stake in the company's performance.

As of December 31, 2022, Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA had two share-based compensation plans in place: the Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA Long Term Incentive Program 2013 (2013 LTIP) which is based on stock options and phantom stocks and the Long Term Incentive Plan 2018 (LTIP 2018) which is solely based on performance shares.

The program consists of two components: On the one hand, participants can annually purchase a share package with ordinary shares of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA at a significant discount. Secondly, four targets have been set, upon achievement of which a certain amount will be issued in ordinary shares of Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA.

Fresenius Medical Care, the world's leading provider of products and services for individuals with renal diseases, has donated 250,000 euros to UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund, to mark the company’s 25th anniversary. UNICEF will use the donation to support the COVAX vaccination initiative to fight the COVID-19 pandemic in about 140 countries. UNICEF delivers COVID-19 vaccines and other equipment around the world. With 250,000 euros UNICEF is able, for example, to protect almost 70,000 teachers or medical personnel from a COVID-19 infection. With every health worker who is protected from the virus the care of numerous children can be ensured. With every vaccinated teacher, more and more children can return to school.

Rice Powell, CEO of Fresenius Medical Care, presented a symbolic check at a virtual ceremony. “As a company in the healthcare branch, we bear a special responsibility to our patients, to our employees and as a member of our society as well,” he said. “In this anniversary year, we must do everything to defeat the global corona pandemic. We are doing this by various means. Our donation to UNICEF is targeted to protect the health of children in less developed and in developing countries. This lives up to our values and our mission for the past 25 years to maintain life and improve the quality of life.”

As the world’s largest single buyer of vaccines, UNICEF has unique experience, gained over many years, in purchasing and delivering goods to children in need. Working on behalf of nearly 100 countries, UNICEF procures more than 2 billion vaccine doses for routine vaccinations and outbreaks of diseases every year. Over the past 20 years, the organization helped provide more than 760 million children with life-saving vaccines.

Christian Schneider, Executive Director of UNICEF Germany said: “The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic threatens children around the world. Their access to health facilities is compromised, many still cannot go to school. Also, violence against children is increasing. The COVAX vaccine initiative plays a decisive role in fighting the pandemic and reducing its consequences, especially in the lower-income regions of the world. The pandemic is not over for anyone until it is over for everyone. To that end, UNICEF provides its unique and longstanding expertise in vaccine procurement and logistics. But we cannot meet this challenge alone. We therefore thank Fresenius Medical Care for their generous support.”

COVAX is a global initiative in which the vaccination alliance Gavi, the World Health Organization (WHO), UNICEF and the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) are working together to facilitate the equitable global distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.

From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Fresenius Medical Care has been intensely engaged on a variety of fronts. In addition to sweeping measures to protect against infection and to ensure continuous operation of our dialysis centers, the company opened its facilities in several countries to allow vaccination of patients and, in some cases, the general public.

Fresenius Medical Care is the world's leading provider of products and services for individuals with renal diseases of which around 3.7 million patients worldwide regularly undergo dialysis treatment. Through its network of more than 4,100 dialysis clinics, Fresenius Medical Care provides dialysis treatments for approximately 346,000 patients around the globe. Fresenius Medical Care is also the leading provider of dialysis products such as dialysis machines or dialyzers. Along with its core business, the Renal Care Continuum, the company focuses on expanding in complementary areas and in the field of critical care. Fresenius Medical Care is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FME) and on the New York Stock Exchange (FMS).

UNICEF is the United Nations Children's Fund. Every child in the world has the right to a childhood – UNICEF is there to make this right a reality. UNICEF was founded in 1946 to help children in devastated Europe after the Second World War. Today, UNICEF works in 190 countries worldwide to ensure that every child can develop healthily, grow up in a protected environment and go to school – regardless of religion, skin colour or origin.
Together with many supporters and partners, UNICEF for example provides every third child worldwide with vaccines, trains teachers, equips schools and advocates for effective child protection laws.
