Werdohl, 19 June 2019. Vossloh Aktiengesellschaft ("Vossloh") has successfully completed the placement of new shares with entitlement to dividends as from 1 January 2019 from the capital increase against contributions of cash and without subscription rights as resolved upon yesterday. The 1,596,743 new no‐par value ordinary bearer shares were placed in a private placement with institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process.

The shares were placed at a placement price of EUR 30.70 per share. Vossloh will generate proceeds amounting to EUR 49.0 million before deduction of commissions and expenses. Vossloh intends to use the net proceeds from the capital increase to enhance its financial flexibility to enable future growth as well as to further reduce its consolidated net financial debt. To further strengthen the self-financing capability and profitability of the Vossloh Group a performance program had been resolved upon already in April 2019. The capital increase supplements the performance program.

The major shareholder of the company, Mr. Heinz Hermann Thiele, participated in the capital increase through an investment vehicle in accordance with his previous shareholdings of 47.24 % in the share capital of the company. In addition, Mr. Heinz Hermann Thiele further purchased additional 499,849 new shares from the capital increase at the placement price and his aggregate (indirect) shareholdings after the capital increase correspond to 50,09 % of the share capital of the company.

Admission of the new shares for trading in the sub-segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and for trading in the regulated market of the Düsseldorf Stock Exchange is expected to take place without a prospectus on 21 June 2019. It is intended to include the new shares in the existing listings of the company's shares on 24 June 2019. The delivery of the new shares is also scheduled for 24 June 2019.

Vossloh is subject to a lock-up period of 6 months, subject to market standard exemptions.
