Germany's Economic Stabilization Fund has exited Deutsche Lufthansa AG after more than two years with a profit of 760 million euros ($757.5 million).

The proceeds generated from the sale of the shares in value of 1.07 billion euros significantly exceed the amount of 306 million euros to acquire the stake, said Jutta Doenges, who is responsible for the fund, known as WSF.

She said that the WSF's participation has now ended and Lufthansa is once again in private hands.

The Economic Stabilization Fund was created by the government in March 2020 to address the economic and social impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on the national economy.
