R&S Group further increases free float by broadening shareholder base

  • Veraison sold 1,764,706 shares in R&S Group Holding AG, exiting its position in full
  • Veraison’s stake was sold to Swiss and international long-only investors not subject to any lock up
  • Free float of R&S Group thus increases further

28 August 2024 – R&S Group Holding AG (SIX: RSGN) acknowledges the sale of 1,764,706 shares in R&S Group Holding AG (“R&S Group”) by Veraison SICAV in Liquidation (“Veraison”) to a group of Swiss and international long-only investors not subject to any lock up. Heinz Kundert, Chairperson of the Board of Directors of R&S Group, also participated in the transaction by buying 54,370 shares.

The trade, which took place yesterday, corresponds to 6.1% of R&S Group’s share capital. After the transaction, Veraison will no longer have any shareholding in R&S Group. Thus, the free float of R&S Group shares increased as a result of removal of lock-up on traded shares.

Both the sale by Veraison and the purchase by Heinz Kundert will be disclosed to SIX Swiss Exchange as per SIX Exchange Regulations (SER).
