H&R Holding GmbH Initiates Voluntary Public Tender Offer

H&R Holding GmbH has announced its decision to launch a voluntary public tender offer for all shareholders of H&R GmbH & Co. KGaA. The offer aims to acquire no-par-value bearer shares at a rate of EUR 5.00 per share, a premium over recent trading prices. The move does not seek to gain control over H&R KGaA, as the bidder already holds significant influence through existing voting rights.

The offer targets a minimum acceptance threshold of 85%, considering shares already attributed to key stakeholders. A contribution agreement with Wilhelm Scholten-controlled entities currently holding a portion of shares is part of this strategy. The bid's completion is projected for the third quarter of 2025, with any shared dividend for 2024 remaining unaffected.

The public is advised to consult the forthcoming Offer Document for detailed terms once approved by German authorities. H&R Holding reserves rights within legal frameworks to adjust the offer or acquire shares outside this tender. Forward-looking statements included are subject to significant uncertainties and risks.
