The shareholders discharged the members of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board for the financial year 2019.

"2019 has been a successful year for Rocket Internet and many of its companies", said Oliver Samwer, CEO of Rocket Internet. "Rocket Internet recorded a gain of EUR 280.3 million in 2019, which translates into EUR 1.90 earnings per share. However, the preliminary result for the first quarter 2020, an expected loss of -162 million Euro, is significantly impacted by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, which also going forward is providing for a high degree of uncertainty."
