The annual general meeting of mutares AG (ISIN: DE000A0SMSH2), which took place in Munich on May 22, 2015, approved all resolutions proposed by the management with large majority. The dividend payment of EUR 4.70 per share and a capital increase from company funds (bonus issue) were approved.
With an attendance of 87.9% of the share capital, the AGM of mutares AG took place in Munich on May 22, 2015. Almost unanimously, the AGM approved the dividend payment of EUR 4.70 per share out of the distributable profit of mutares AG (approved by 99.9%). The representative of DSW (Germany’s largest association of private investors) expressed the shareholders’ appreciation of mutares’ development and its outstanding result in FY 2014.
To further increase liquidity and therefore the attractiveness of the mutares’ share, the AGM approved the proposed capital increase from company funds and the reclassification of the share capital (bonus issue in the ratio of 1:5) almost unanimously (approved by 99.9%).
The share capital of the company in the amount of EUR 2’339’722.00 will be increased by EUR 11’698’610.00 to EUR 14’038’332.00 through a capital increase from company funds of EUR 11’698’610.00 using partly the capital reserve of EUR 24’716’086.00 as shown in the company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2014. The number of issued shares will be six times higher, growing from 2’339’722 shares to 14’038’322 shares. Hence, every shareholder will receive five new shares for every share in his portfolio as soon as the capital increase will be officially published in the German Trade Register (Handelsregister) in a couple of weeks.
