Mr. Niclaus Bergmann:

We use the profits in two ways. One way is to strengthen the capital because the only capital we have is retained earnings so we have to put aside some of the profits for that. The rest goes to the owner, the local municipality, which can only use these funds for social purposes. This is written down in Sparkassen law.
