C-QUADRAT Investment AG reported earnings results for the first quarter of 2016. For the first quarter of 2016, the company was shaped by the effects of one of the worst starts to the stock-market year of all time. The total revenues of the company amounted to EUR 10 million (2015: EUR 40.9 million including performance-related management fees with a volume of EUR 27 million). Due to a changeover of commission payment procedures - funds of C-QUADRAT Kapitalanlage AG have been outsourced to external management companies - an annual comparison of the total revenue from regular management fees and performance-related management fees for the same quarters in the years 2015 and 2016 is not possible. At EUR 0.5 million, the profit for the period is significantly lower than the record result achieved in the same quarter in 2015 (EUR 15.4 million).
