To estimate **Net Debt / EBITDA** for 2022 using an S&P-style approach, I treat debt as including both financial debt and lease liabilities, net of cash and cash equivalents. Relevant 2022 year-end balance sheet figures: - Other noncurrent financial liabilities: 1,751,255,000 - Other current financial liabilities: 389,716,000 - Noncurrent lease liabilities: 150,955,000 - Current lease liabilities: 6,362,000 - Cash and cash equivalents: 392,811,000 Gross debt including leases: 1,751,255,000 + 389,716,000 + 150,955,000 + 6,362,000 = 2,298,288,000 Net debt: 2,298,288,000 − 392,811,000 = 1,905,477,000 For EBITDA, the reported 2022 figure is: - Profit/loss from operating activities before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation expense: 499,430,000 So: Net Debt / EBITDA = 1,905,477,000 / 499,430,000 = 3.8147 Rounded to one decimal place, the estimated ratio is: 3.8
