Centrosolar Group AG: Change to shareholder group
04.10.2012 / 15:08
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Munich, October 4, 2012 - Our shareholder CENTROTEC Sustainable AG today
informed us that it has sold its share package of about 26 %. CENTROTEC has
thus completed the final step of the strategy on which it embarked in
November 2011 to withdraw from solar business. The transaction does not
have any impact on the business policy of CENTROSOLAR Group AG. Business
volume with the CENTROTEC Group amounted to only EUR 0.4 million in the
first half of 2012 (1st half of 2011: EUR 1.2 million, 2011 overall: EUR
2.3 million). The composition of the Management Board and Supervisory Board
will remain unchanged. We have not yet received a voting rights notice in
respect of defined reporting thresholds having been exceeded by a buyer,
pursuant to Section 21 (1) of German Securities Trading Law (WpHG).
