EVN AG announces that, according to information provided by Wiener Stadtwerke GmbH and EnBW Trust e.V., all requirements to implement the share purchase agreement concluded by these two companies on 5 March 2020, in particular the non-prohibition by the federal competition authority, have now been met and the transaction was closed today.

The remaining shareholder structure of EVN AG is not affected by this transaction: In accordance with federal and provincial constitutional law, the province of Lower Austria is the majority shareholder of EVN AG through NÖ Landesbeteiligungsholding GmbH with a stake of 51.0%. In addition to the treasury shares held by EVN AG, which represent 1.0% of the company's share capital, free float equals 19.6%.

The Supervisory Board and Executive Board of EVN AG would like to thank the long-time investor EnBW and its representatives for their good cooperation.

In view of the challenges and opportunities related to climate change and the system transformation towards a renewable and secure energy future, EVN, as a listed energy and environmental services provider, welcomes the involvement of Wiener Stadtwerke GmbH as a future shareholder. A stable, long-term shareholder structure with the province of Lower Austria as the majority shareholder creates a sound basis for EVN to master the challenges of the future.
