On second thought, in German convention the figure must read: 383.842,72, not 383,842.72.

wuerde ihr Gewinn satte 383.842,72 GBP betragen

My comment:

I am assuming that GdP is meant to be GBP and that the first point in the figure is meant to be a comma.
Also, that the figure 467.225.773 represents a conversion to Euros, but then the points and number of decimal places are confusing/wrong.
It doesn't make sense to convert to another currency, especially with this degree of accuracy, when the exchange rate is unknown.
It may be a help to give an approximate Euro figure, e.g. (etwa 467.000 Euro).
