                                      In line with our vision of becoming the no. 1 in the European market for cloud telephony, we will continue to invest significantly in gaining market share.
                                      Therefore, assuming a stable overall economic development and a cloud communications market in Europe that is expanding rapidly as expected,
                                      NFON expects a continuation of its dynamic revenue growth with possible additional impulses from further M&A activities. The EBITDA breakeven point
                                      could be reached in the medium term if the current investment intensity is maintained. This does not include investments to take advantage of additional
                                      growth opportunities that arise in the short term.
