Sabrina Soussan succeeds James Rowan on the Shareholders' Committee

In the supplementary election to the Shareholders' Committee, Sabrina Soussan was elected as successor to James Rowan, who has resigned as a shareholder representative with effect from the end of the 2025 Annual General Meeting and left the Shareholders' Committee.

Creation of Authorized Capital as an anticipatory resolution

The proposal for new authorized capital as an ‘anticipatory resolution’ was also accepted. This puts the company in a position to cover any future financial requirements quickly and flexibly. At the same time, additional flexibility and reserves for liquidity management are created. The previous authorized capital approved by the Annual General Meeting on April 17, 2020, will expire on June 16, 2025.
