In addition to the disclosures required by the IFRS, Zur Rose publishes alternative performance measures (APM), which are not subject to the IFRS provisions and for which there is no generally accepted reporting standard.

- Growth in local currency1
- Gross margin in percent of revenue
- EBIT
- EBITDA
- EBITDA adjusted
- EBITDA adjusted before expenditures on additional growth initiatives
- EBITDA margin
- Net financial debt
EXTERNAL REVENUE is defined as the consolidated revenue of the Zur Rose Group plus the mail order revenue of pharmacies supplied by the Zur Rose Group less the consolidated revenue for their supply.
Growth in local currency shows the percentage change of a performance measure compared with the previous year without the impact of exchange rate effects (conversion is at the previous year's rate).
The gross margin in percent of revenue corresponds to the division of revenue less cost of goods by
revenue.
EBIT (Earnings Before Interest and Taxes) stands for earnings before interest and taxes and is used to report the operative earnings without the impact of internationally non-uniform taxation systems and different financing activities.
