WE LIVE NEW WORK
Letter to our shareholders by Dr. Thomas Vollmoeller, CEO
Dear shareholders,
I am pleased to present you with the figures for 2018, which was yet another successful financial year for us.
XING SE again continued on its growth trajectory over the past year. Total revenues rose by 25 percent to 235.1 million (previous year: 188.5 million). The growth rate was 21 percent when adjusted for the acquisitions of InterNations and Prescreen. All of our segments con tributed to this growth.
The B2C segment, which reports income from members for paid services, grew by 12 percent in the past year to 99.9 million (89.5 million). The growth rate was 5 percent when adjusted for acquisitions. For the first time, the B2B E-Recruiting segment was both the largest source of revenue and the biggest growth driver for XING SE. With its innovative solutions that help companies to find and recruit talent amid an increasingly acute shortage of skilled workers, this segment generated revenues of 108.7 million ? a rise of 40 percent (39 percent on an adjusted basis) compared to the previous year. The B2B Marketing Solutions&Events segment also recorded considerable growth, with revenue rising by 22 percent to 21.7 million. XING SE lifted EBITDA by 23 percent to 75.2 million (61.3 million), while net income adjusted for one-off earn-out adjustments rose by 29 percent to 30.1 million.

As the leading professional network in the German-speaking world, XING welcomed 1.9 million new members over the past financial year. The network's membership base also expanded to 15.3 million by the end of 2018, of which more than 1.0 million people made use of XING's paid memberships. As a result, XING had 16.4 million users including XING Events users by the end of the year. The XING E-Recruiting segment also attracted more than 3,100 new B2B corporate customers with subscriptions during the year under review, meaning that more than 11,000 companies now recruit skilled employees via the XING platform. This platform gives employers easy access to the German-speaking world's largest talent pool ? while XING members also benefit from the professional opportu nities generated as a result.
The Company's other brands also recorded gains in 2018. InterNations, the network for professionals posted abroad by their employers, had 3.3 million members worldwide by the end of last year ? a rise of 16 percent. This figure included 135,000 subscribers. kununu, the leading employer review platform in Europe, increased the number of reviews on its portal to 3.2 million and reached an average of 4 million visits per month last year. ATS provider Prescreen significantly raised the number of corporate customers to more than 1,000.
