Convincing people into buying useless or inexistent coverage has become a common thing to do for modern thieves. This blog explains the most common insurance scams and how to avoid them. Unfortunately, thieves and scammers become more active during a crisis and the recent pandemic is the perfect time for criminals to get to the action.

1. Avoid providing vital information to unsolicited calls from "insurance agents" who seem very alarmed. Getting unsolicited calls from agents and companies are usually a red flag. Things get really fishy if the person calling you does not mention his agency, or if he mentions it, it is not your current insurer. Avoid providing financial information to agents that claim they need it to provide you a refund. Insurers usually provide this discount automatically.

2. Use online quotes from well-established insurance companies. It is recommended to get quotes from licensed, well-established insurance companies. Not from ads promising ultra-cheap coverage and then redirect the user to unknown companies or agents. Use the official websites or brokerage websites that redirect to the official website.

3. Online quotes will present average costs. If the cost of the advertised insurance policy is 90 percent below average, there's a good chance the policy is either fake or provides very little coverage. Make sure to check all details and do some research about the company before signing any contract.

Around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic is disrupting calendars along with travel budgets and marketing plans by canceling events ranging from major league sports to tech conferences. This has impacted the startup and tech industries on all levels; by early March, economic losses from tech event cancellations alone amounted to more than $1.1 billion.

In response, many businesses have taken events online. Teleconferencing tools are being used more than ever, and Zoom registered 200 million daily users in March, up from a record of 10 million. Business figures and organizations can harness these online tools to minimize the blow of the worldwide shutdown, reach their target audiences and position themselves as thought leaders, butmoving events online has its own problems.

The more meetups are generated, the more likely it is that yours will get lost in a sea of options. Its also significantly easier for people to attend an event and ignore it or exit early. There are plenty of studies demonstrating that internet users have shorter attention spans.

So you have to stand out and keep people engaged while speaking to people through a screen thousands of miles away. Over the past decade I have run more than 100 webinars with over 100,000 live attendees, and am one of the largest Meetup organizers in the world. Through trial and error I have developed a set of best practices that will keep people engaged in online events.

Transmitting real value by computer is certainly more challenging than face-to-face, but following these three pointers will help you get there.

We all know what a badly prepared organized meeting looks like: frozen screens, buffering videos and broken audio.

DGAP-News: Delticom AG / Key word(s): Quarterly / Interim Statement/Quarter Results 14.05.2020 / 17:45 The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

Delticom publishes Q1 business development // Exceedance of the threshold of 50 % of the voting rights by a trustee and companies and persons associated with him

Hanover, May 14, 2020 - Delticom AG (German Securities Code (WKN) 514680, ISIN DE 00005146807, stock market symbol DEX), Europe's leading online retailer for tyres and complete wheels, publishes the key points of its business trends in the first quarter 2020.

Market environment.

In initial estimates, market experts assume that in the first three months of the current year, a total of 15.4 % fewer car tyres were sold from dealers to consumers in Germany. A 13.6 % decrease in sales of summer tyres and a 30.5 % decrease in sales of winter tyres contrasts with an 8.3 % increase in sales of all-season tyres.

At the pan-European level, the shutdown decisions of various European countries to contain the corona pandemic also had an impact on the demand for replacement tyres. In the Southern European countries in particular, the lives of private consumers were considerably restricted in order to reduce the high infection rates and the speed at which the pandemic spreads.

Revenues. The company generated revenues of 93.0 million in the first three months of the current year, compared with 122.2 million in the first quarter of 2019. The 24 % decrease of consolidated group revenues is due on the one hand to the implementation of the closure of unprofitable subsidiaries already decided and initiated last year. The operating business of All you need GmbH, for example, was already discontinued at the end of 2019. The business of Gourmondo Food GmbH was completely discontinued as of March 13, 2020, the automotive spare parts and oils business as of March 31, 2020. In the first few months of the current year, the remaining stock levels were fully sold off. Weather-related shift effects also had an impact on revenues in the core tyre business in the first quarter of 2020. A mild winter compared to the previous year and the resulting low demand for winter tyres at the beginning of the current fiscal year were followed this year by cold temperatures in the last decade of March, which delayed the start of the summer season in the classic changeover countries by a few weeks and thus into the second quarter. At the European level, pandemic lockdown measures also had an impact on demand and correspondingly on the development of revenues.

Gross profit. In view of a decrease in revenues, gross profit amounted to 24.8 million. Following a previous year's figure of 30.8 million, this corresponds to a decrease of 19.4 %. Gross profit in relation to total income amounted to 25.6 % (Q1 19: 24.1 %).

Personnel expenses. On the reporting date of March 31, 2020, the Group employed a total of 221 people (March 31, 2019: 308). Personnel expenses amounted to 3.9 million, compared with 4.6 million in the first quarter of 2019. The 15.8 % decrease is mainly due to the closure of non-profitable subsidiaries and the associated gradual reduction in personnel until the cease of the related operations.

EBITDA. EBITDA amounted to -5.3 million after a previous year's figure of -5.6 million. Operating earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation are burdened by restructuring costs of 2.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. The positive effects from the closure of loss-making subsidiaries and the measures taken to increase efficiency and to optimize costs in the core business fully compensated the negative impact on earnings from the restructuring despite the decrease in revenues, resulting in an EBITDA improvement of 0.3 million.

Depreciation. Depreciation and amortisation amounted to 2.4 million, compared with 3.2 million in the previous year. The 26.4 % decrease is mainly due to the closure of unprofitable subsidiaries whose fixed assets had already been extraordinary written off in the 2019 financial year.

EBIT. In view of the increase in profitability and the lower depreciation and amortisation compared with the previous year, EBIT amounted to -7.7 million - after -8.8 million in the first quarter of 2019, an improvement of 1.1 million.

Outlook.

With warmer temperatures in April, the refitting business in the classic changeover countries has gained considerable momentum. The workshops in Germany are open so that expert tyre changes can be carried out easily. While countries such as Austria and Germany entered a phase of gradual easing of restrictions as early as April, countries such as France, Italy and Spain have also been following suit since the beginning of May, gradually easing contact and curfew restrictions accompanied by a gradual re-opening of the retail sector. At this point in time, Delticom AG's management expects that the further easing of measures in Europe in the coming weeks will at least partially offset the decrease in revenues in the first quarter.

Delticom will report on the further course of the summer tyre business in its half-year report on August 13, 2020. The full-year forecast from March is confirmed. Depending on the catch-up effect, revenues and EBITDA will be within the forecasted ranges.

Exceedance of the threshold of 50 % of the voting rights by a trustee and companies and persons associated with him

Delticom AG has today published a voting rights announcement pursuant to Section 40 (1) Sentence 1 of the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG), which it received from Andreas Ziegenhagen. This voting rights announcement relates to the exceedance of the 50 % threshold of voting rights in Delticom AG (reportedly 52.64 %) on May 11, 2020 by Mr. Andreas Ziegenhagen, Brilliant 3256 Asset Management GmbH, Dentons GmbH Wirtschaftsprfungsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft, Dentons Europe Beteiligungsgesellschaft brgerlichen Rechts and Mr. Andreas Ziegenhagen. The reasons given are the granting of a power of attorney and a vote on conduct. This announcement is related to Delticom AG's restructuring program which has been initiated last year.

In the agreements reached with the lending banks at the end of 2019 with regard to the continu-ation of Delticom group's financing until the end of 2021, the shareholders Prfer GmbH and Seguti GmbH undertook various measures vis--vis a stock trustee, which represents the lending banks' security interests as the Delticom group's financier, to search for and promote the entry of an investor in Delticom AG with the aim of strengthening Delticom AG's capital base. The shareholder Binder GmbH had voluntarily assumed a similar obligation towards the shareholder Prfer GmbH. Prfer GmbH has assigned its corresponding claim to the share trustee. These obligations were subject to various conditions precedent, which have in the meantime been fulfilled.

On the basis of these agreements, voting proxies of Prfer GmbH and Seguti GmbH have now been issued to the trustee. As a result of the agreements reached, the parties granting the power of attorney and the authorized trustee have come to an understanding regarding the exercise of voting rights at Delticom AG. As a result of a co-voting obligation voluntarily assumed vis--vis Prfer GmbH and the assignment of the corresponding claim by Prfer GmbH to the share trustee, the shareholder Binder GmbH is subject to a voting commitment vis--vis the share trustee in certain cases.

This legally leads to the attribution of the voting rights of Prfer GmbH, Binder GmbH and Seguti GmbH at Delticom AG to the share trustee and companies and persons associated with him. However, Prfer GmbH, Binder GmbH and Seguti GmbH continue to hold their existing Delticom shares. The pooling agreement between Prfer GmbH and Binder GmbH and the resulting voting rights additions also continue to exist unchanged.

As a result, the stock trustee and its associated companies and persons have formally acquired control of Delticom AG. However, as this control was not acquired with the aim of influencing Delticom AG's management and without any significant economic objectives of its own, the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) has, upon application, exempted the stock trustee and its associated companies and persons within the meaning of Section 37 (1) Variant 2 Securities Acquisition and Takeover Act (WpG) from the obligations to publish the acquisition of control within the meaning of Section 35 (1) Sentence 1 WpG and, within the meaning of Section 35 (2) Sentence 1 WpG, to submit an offer document to the BaFin and to publish a mandatory offer to all of Delticom AG's shareholders.
