(ISIN DE0005079909)
Administrative offence proceeding formally opened by Federal Cartel Office
Following on from the search of the company's premises in November 2010,
Germany's Federal Cartel Office (Bundeskartellamt) has formally notified
the company that an administrative offence proceeding has been opened. The
agency has raised several allegations of what it perceives to have
constituted anti-competitive behaviour by A.S. Création Tapeten AG and
individual company executives. While most of these allegations essentially
relate to the period from 2005 to 2010, some are related to a period prior
to that. A.S. Création Tapeten AG will now scrutinise these allegations. At
this point, management notes the absence of a factual basis on which to
express a reliable assessment of the likely course of this proceeding.
