- Sale on the stock market confirms the euromicron Group’s strategy
Norddeutsche Landesbank (NORD/LB), has placed around 300,000 euromicron shares from its own holding through the stock market. As stated in a voting rights announcement on Friday, January 22, 2010, approximately 6.44 percent of the share capital of euromicron AG has thus been sold by NORD/LB on the stock market. NORD/LB still holds 695,000 shares or just under 15 percent of euromicron’s total stock.
Dr. Willibald Späth, Chairman of the Executive Board of euromicron, welcomes the transaction: “NORD/LB has again proven to be a responsible investor. Placement of the around 300,000 euromicron shares through the stock market also strengthens euromicron AG’s position on the capital market,” says Dr. Späth.
The sharp increase in trading volume showed that the market knew euromicron’s strategy and had now understood the group. In particular, the volume indicated growing awareness of the euromicron Group. “Our forward-looking positioning as an expert for network infrastructures who offers its customers a broad range of market-leading applications, for example from the security, control and healthcare arenas, is now also being acknowledged by the capital market,” adds Späth. Above all in the past year of the crisis, euromicron had bucked the general economic trend and shown itself to be a stable and successful company. “Numerous positive responses to the NORD/LB transaction by euromicron shareholders confirm our overall assessment,” stresses the head of euromicron.
