GK Software AG opts for share buy-back programme in 2016
GK Software AG (ISIN DE0007571424) is launching a share buy-back programme.
The Management Board decided to adopt the repurchase programme at its
meeting today. The authorisation to purchase company shares according to
Section 71 Paragraph 1 Number 8 of the German Joint Stock Companies Act is
based on the decision taken at the annual shareholders' meeting on 18 June
2013. The programme initially runs until 30 June 2016.
The shares may be used for all the purposes named in the authorisation
adopted by the main shareholders' meeting on 18 June 2013, which forms the
basis for the decision to go ahead with the programme. They particularly
include the use of the shares as a financial offset when purchasing
companies and using them as part of the share option programme. GK Software
and its subsidiaries did not hold any of the company shares on the
reporting date of 1 February 2016.
The purchase price per share (excluding any ancillary acquisition expenses)
may not exceed or fall below the stock market price for the company's
shares on the XETRA trading system at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange by more
than 10%, as determined by the opening auction.
Here are the key points relating to the share buy-back programme:
- The repurchase of GK Software AG (ISIN DE0007571424) no-par shares made
out to the bearer
- The purchase of company shares with a total value of up to EUR 200 K
(excluding any ancillary acquisition expenses)
- The purchase shall take place through the stock exchange
- The buy-back shall be handled by a bank commissioned by the company and
in accordance with Articles 4 - 6 of the Order (EC) no. 2273/2003 of
the Commission dated 22 December 2003 and the rules of the German Joint
Stock Companies Act and the German Securities Trading Act. The
Management Board would specifically point out according to Article 5
Paragraph 3 of the Order that the threshold value of 25% of the average
daily share trading according to Article 5 Paragraph 2 of the Order may
be exceeded during the implementation of the buy-back programme.
- The programme is being launched on 3 February 2016 and shall end on 30
June 2016 at the very latest.
