Implementation of Brenntag AG stock split on August 1, 2014
- 1:3 stock split on August 1, 2014
- Shares in securities accounts will be converted automatically by the
depository banks
Brenntag, the global market leader in chemical distribution, will proceed
with a 1:3 stock split on August 1, 2014, as resolved by the General
Shareholders' Meeting on June 17, 2014. On that date, the quotation of
Brenntag shares (WKN A1DAHH, ISIN DE000 A1DAHH) in the Frankfurt Stock
Exchange regulated market (Prime Standard) will be converted without the
securities identification number being changed.
"Since being listed at the stock exchange in March 2010, the Brenntag share
price has shown a very pleasing performance. The absolute share price now
looks relatively high compared to the prices of other MDAX shares. The
stock split is intended to make our shares more attractive to an even wider
range of investors and to increase the share's liquidity," says Georg
Müller, Brenntag AG's Chief Financial Officer, explaining the move.
Following the capital increase from company funds through the issue of new
shares, the registered share capital of the company is now EUR 154,500,000
and is divided into an equally high number of registered no-par-value
shares following the split. Shareholders will be issued two additional
shares for each Brenntag share they hold by their depository bank. The
change does not require any action from them. The share price will also be
arithmetically divided by three without having an impact on the value of
each shareholder's portfolio.
