SKW share changes into General Standard Segment of German Stock Exchange

Munich, November 22, 2018 - CEO of SKW Stahl-Metallurgie Holding AG with approval of the Trustee has applied to change the SKW share from Prime Standard Segment into General Standard Segment of the German Stock Exchange. Such change will presumably take effect by end of February 2019. Issuers in General Standard also comply with the high transparency regulations of the Regulated Market. The marketability of the SKW share will not be impaired by such change.

Relevant for such decision was to reduce the running costs for stock listing of a company that is undergoing an insolvency procedure in self administration.
