Munich, the 04th of September 2019. The Board of Directors of MS Industrie AG (WKN 585518, ISIN DE0005855183) today decided to implement a program to buy back shares of the company. The basis for the share buyback is the authorization of the General Assembly on June 28th, 2017 to acquire the company's own shares until June 27th, 2022 up to a portion of 10% of the share capital. The Board of Directors plans to acquire up to 250,000 shares (this corresponds to around 0.83% of the current share capital) until December 31st, 2020.
If the shares are acquired via the stock exchange, the equivalent value per share paid by the Company (excluding ancillary expenses) may not exceed the price on XETRA platform of the Frankfurt/Main Stock Exchange determined by the opening auction by more than 10% and may not undercut the same price by more than 20%.
MS Industrie AG currently holds 80,400 own shares. This corresponds to around 0.27% of the share capital.
The own shares can be used for all legally permissible purposes, in particular for existing and future employee participation programs and / or as consideration in the context of investments in other companies.
