Leoni intends to increase available liquidity

Nuremberg, 10 December 2019 - Following an examination of the mid-term assumptions by external experts regarding business developments until 2022 and presentation of the results in today's Board of Directors meeting, the Board of Leoni AG, Nuremberg (ISIN DE 0005408884 / WKN 540888) intends to increase its existing liquidity by EUR 200 million in order to ensure the company is fully financed. Taking into account the repayment of the promissory note loans due in 2020, the Group's current financing scope is not expected to increase. Leoni continues to be in very constructive discussions with its creditors and will commission an expert opinion in accordance with the S6 standard (IDW S6) published by the Institute of Public Auditors (Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer) in order to confirm the company's course and that it is fully financed.
