With this registration, the financial instruments of Custos Vermögungsverwaltungs GmbH created due to signing of the merger agreement were canceled and the stake that Salapo Beteiligungsverwaltungs GmbH held in Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH was transferred to Custos Vermögensverwaltungs GmbH. Hence, the latter now holds another 5.72% of the shares in ANDRITZ AG indirectly via Certus Beteiligungs-GmbH in addition to its previous 25% direct holding, thus bringing its total stake to 30.72%.
