PSI AG Decides to Increase Capital from Approved Capital
Financing for purchase of minority shares in PSI-BT
The Executive Board of PSI AG voted on 7 February 2005 to an increase in
capital from approved capital by 1.1 million shares of stock at an emission
price of EUR 3.50. The consent of the Supervisory Board to this capital
increase was given by means of circular resolution. The new shares of stock
have been placed with renowned investors from Germany and Switzerland. The
flow of funding will serve to finance the takeover reported in December 2004
of the minority holding of the VDEh steel institute on the steel software
subsidiary PSI-BT. Beyond that this step is to strengthen the position of PSI
as the third biggest German software producer and prepare for further
expansion.
By emitting 1.1 million new bearer share certificates, the company’s capital
stock will be increased by EUR 2,816,000 from EUR 28,192,947 to EUR
31,008,947. The company will receive EUR 3.850.000.
