Graz - July 29, 2021. At the end of the Annual General Meeting deciding on the
discharge for the 2021 business year (scheduled for April 12, 2022), Wolfgang
Leitner will end his functions on the ANDRITZ AG Executive Board - after 34
years of successful work there, thereof 27 years as President and CEO.
Consistent with the regulations of the Austrian Stock Corporation Act (exception
to the cooling-off rule), it is planned to propose Wolfgang Leitner for election
to the Supervisory Board of ANDRITZ AG at the upcoming ordinary Annual General
Meeting 2022.

The nominations committee for the ANDRITZ AG Supervisory Board has decided to
propose the following changes in the ANDRITZ AG Executive Board, which are to be
presented to the members of the Supervisory Board for resolution at the regular
meeting of the Supervisory Board on August 26, 2021.

* As from April 2022, the new President and CEO of ANDRITZ AG will be Joachim
Schönbeck, who has been a member of the ANDRITZ AG Executive Board since
October 2014. During this period, Joachim Schönbeck made a substantial
contribution towards the very successful development of the Pulp & Paper
Capital Systems and the Metals Processing segments for which he has been
responsible. Joachim Schönbeck will also continue to be responsible for the
Pulp & Paper Capital Systems segment in his new function.

* Domenico Iacovelli, who has held various management positions in the ANDRITZ
GROUP since 2011 and has been chairman of the Schuler AG Executive Board since
April 2018, will be appointed as a new member of the Executive Board of
ANDRITZ AG as from April 2022. Domenico Iacovelli successfully adjusted the
Schuler Group to the very challenging market conditions over the past few
years and thus laid the foundation for positive development of the company. In
addition to his tasks on the Executive Board of ANDRITZ AG for the entire
Metals business area, Domenico Iacovelli will continue in his function as
chairman of the Schuler AG Executive Board.

* The other members of the ANDRITZ AG Executive Board shall remain unchanged.
