Vossloh AG has successfully completed the placement of new shares with entitlement to dividends as from January 1, 2024, as part of the capital increase against cash contributions and without subscription rights, as resolved upon today. The 1,756,417 new no‐par value ordinary bearer shares were placed in a private placement with institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process.

The shares were placed at a placement price of €41.0 per share. Vossloh will generate proceeds amounting to approximately €72 million before deduction of commissions and expenses. Vossloh intends to use the expected net proceeds from the capital increase to partially finance the purchase price for the planned acquisition of Sateba Group.

The major shareholder of the company, KB Holding GmbH, participated in the capital increase in accordance with his shareholdings of 50.09 % in the share capital of the company.

Admission of the new shares for trading in the sub-segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and for trading in the regulated market of the Dusseldorf Stock Exchange is expected to take place without a prospectus on November 15, 2024.
