PFISTERER Holding SE has completed the conversion of its share class from bearer shares to registered shares, a change approved by the Annual General Meeting on June 11, 2026. The corresponding amendments to the Articles of Association were registered with the Commercial Register of the Stuttgart Local Court under HRB 790497 on August 13, 2026, making them legally effective. Since October 8, 2026, PFISTERER shares have traded as registered shares under the new ISIN DE000PFSE253.
The shift to registered shares is significant because it provides PFISTERER with greater transparency of its shareholder base. This transparency is made possible through a legally required share register, which contains the data necessary for administering registered shares and facilitating shareholder communications. As a result, the company can maintain a more direct dialogue with its shareholders, potentially improving corporate governance and investor relations.
For existing shareholders, the conversion does not affect any rights associated with their shares. Entitlement to dividends, the exercise of voting rights, and participation in the Annual General Meeting remain unchanged. The custody of shares in securities accounts and the processing of dividend payments through custodian banks will also continue as before. The conversion was carried out on a one-for-one basis, ensuring that shareholders retain equivalent ownership stakes.
The move to registered shares aligns with a growing trend among publicly listed companies in Germany and across Europe. Registered shares offer companies more control and insight into their investor base, which can be particularly valuable for strategic decision-making and engagement with institutional investors. For PFISTERER, a globally operating technology company headquartered in Winterbach near Stuttgart, this step underscores its commitment to robust corporate governance.
