Leoben – To support the further development of the company, the Executive
Board of AT&S considers to increase the share capital of the Company from
authorized capital once morest cash contributions and to possibly implement
further capital measures, whereby the aggregate volume of such potential
capital measures may amount to up to 50% of the current share capital of
AT&S. The details related thereto are still to be determined.
In order to support the success of such potential capital measures, AT&S
has engaged in negotiations with Österreichische Beteiligungs AG (ÖBAG)
concerning the potential subscription by the latter within the potential
capital measures (whereby according to the current state of negotiations a
participation of at least 25% +1 share of the share capital of AT&S would
be sought). Moreover, the Executive Board of AT&S has decided to start
talks with potential other new investors regarding a possible investment.
The implementation of potential capital measures and the potential
investment by investors depends, among other things, on the passing of any
required corporate resolutions, agreement with the potential investor as
well as evaluation of the then prevailing market conditions.
The final approval of the Supervisory Board of AT&S is still outstanding.
The Company will promptly inform once the necessary decision of the
Supervisory Board has been passed and will, therefollowing, provide timely
information on the details of the potential capital measures.
