EQS-News: Kontron Acquisition GmbH, an indirect subsidiary of Kontron AG, resolves on the squeeze-out of KATEK SE, Ismaning/Germany under stock corporation law

Linz, November 10, 2025 – Kontron Acquisition GmbH, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Kontron AG, today informed KATEK SE that it holds approximately 96.86% of the shares in the company and thus more than 95% of its share capital.

Kontron Acquisition GmbH today requested the Management Board of the Company to convene an Annual General Meeting of KATEK SE that will resolve on the transfer of the shares held by the remaining shareholders to Kontron Acquisition GmbH in exchange for an appropriate cash compensation (squeeze-out under stock corporation law). The amount of the cash compensation to be granted to the minority shareholders has not yet been determined. It is currently being assessed and will be communicated to KATEK SE separately in a subsequent, more specific request from Kontron Acquisition GmbH (the “concretizing request”). The adequacy of the cash compensation will be reviewed by an auditor selected and appointed by the Munich Regional Court. Following receipt of the concretizing request, KATEK SE will inform shareholders, in accordance with statutory requirements, of the date of the Annual General Meeting.
