1&1 AG Comments on STOXX Index Decision
Montabaur, 10 July 2025. 1&1 AG (ISIN DE 0005545503) has taken note of the notification from STOXX Ltd. stating that the company will be removed from the SDAX, HDAX, and TecDAX indices as of July 11, 2025. The reason cited is a “takeover” pursuant to Section 8.3.2 of the DAX Equity Index Calculation Guide. From 1&1 AG’s perspective, the requirements set out in the referenced Guide are not met. There is neither a takeover in place nor is the company involved in any takeover process. The offer made by United Internet AG on June 5, 2025, was a voluntary public acquisition offer in the form of a partial offer. Following completion of this offer, United Internet AG will hold 85.10% of the share capital (and 85.32% of the voting rights). Therefore, 1&1 AG considers the decision by STOXX Ltd. to be incomprehensible. In this context, 1&1 AG also emphasizes that a sufficient free float of nearly 15 percent remains in place. This release also serves as a response to partially inaccurate representations in the media.
