1&1 Drillisch AG: Final expert determination received in the first price adjustment procedure - Decision confirmed

Maintal, 19 December 2019. Today, 1&1 Drillisch has received the final expert determination in the first price adjustment procedure, which was initiated by 1&1 Drillisch with effect as of September 2017 (Price Review 1). Therein, the expert confirms the decision announced in the draft of the expert determination in October 2019. 1&1 Drillisch's application for the advance service prices to be reduced retroactively from September 2017 is rejected.

1&1 Drillisch believes the expert determination is wrong for various reasons and sees methodical mistakes and discrepancies in content. 1&1 Drillisch is also of the opinion that essential characteristics of the MBA model, which was introduced in the context of the merger clearance of the E-Plus takeover, have not been adequately considered. This includes in particular the special privileges of the MBA MVNO. In the interests of its shareholders, 1&1 Drillisch will consider its legal options.
