MAX Automation AG plans to convert to European Stock Corporation (SE) with a monistic management system

Düsseldorf, May 15, 2017 – MAX Automation AG is preparing a transformation of the company into the established legal form of a European company (Societas Europaea, SE). According to the will of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board, a monistic system will be selected for the planned MAX Automation SE. The Supervisory Board today approved a corresponding resolution by the Management Board.

The resolutions of the Management Board and the Supervisory Board regarding the transformation plan to be drawn up are still pending. The change in the format requires, among other things, that the Annual General Meeting of MAX Automation AG approves the conversion plan and approves the Articles of Association of the future MAX Automation SE in the conversion plan in which the members of the first Board of Directors of MAX Automation SE are to be appointed. Appropriate resolutions are to be submitted to this year’s Annual General Meeting. The entry, and thus the effect, of the change of form, also requires that the procedure already initiated for the agreement on the participation of employees in the future SE be completed or terminated.

The transformation of the legal form takes account of the international focus of the high-tech mechanical engineering group with its growing European focus.
