Interessant...ich wusste gar nicht, dass es 2 Intercard AGs in Deutschland gibt. Die Intercard AG aus München mit CEO Kai Adolph, die hier übernommen wird, scheint mir nicht die Intercard AG aus Villingen-Schwenningen mit CEO Gerson Riesle zu sein, von der man hier Aktien kaufen kann.

Korrekt es gibt 2 Intercards.
Die börsennotierte heißt auch Intercard Informationssysteme AG.
Ich hätte allerdings nichts gegen eine Übernahme - allerdings nur wenn der Kurs im 2-stelligen Bereich ist.
