Frequentis AG: One year after the IPO - First virtual General Meeting went well

Vienna (pta031/14.05.2020/15:20 UTC+2) * Virtual General Meeting on first anniversary of IPO
* Karl Michael Millauer and Boris Nemsic re-elected to the Supervisory Board
* High majorities for all proposed resolutions

On the first anniversary of its IPO, Frequentis AG held its General Meeting online as a virtual meeting, due to the present COVID-19 situation. In keeping with Frequentis' philosophy of safety-critical communication, two providers were used, so the data were transmitted via two different channels. In addition, it was possible to dial in by phone.

"Our first year on the stock market and today's General Meeting show that private and institutional investors and many other stakeholders are greatly interested in Frequentis' business and its work as part of the safety-critical infrastructure in Austria and worldwide. Our numerous discussions with investors are a valuable enrichment of our work," said Frequentis' CEO, Norbert Haslacher.

The Annual General Meeting resolved to pay a dividend of EUR 0.15 per share entitled to the dividend for the 2019 financial year. The dividend will be paid as from 27 November 2020. Against the background of the COVID-19 pandemic, payment of the dividend is contingent upon legal permissibility on the payment date.

In the Supervisory Board meeting held after the Annual General Meeting, Karl Michael Millauer and Dr Boris Nemsic were re-elected to the Supervisory Board of Frequentis AG. Karl Michael Millauer was confirmed as Deputy Chairman of the Supervisory Board. The Supervisory Board comprises five shareholder representatives: Johannes Bardach (Chairman), Karl Michael Millauer (Deputy Chairman), Reinhold Daxecker, Boris Nemsic, and Petra Preining, and three employee representatives: Siegfried Meisel, Gabriele Schedl, and Reinhard Steidl.
