21.11.2017

KTM Industries AG was informed by Pierer Industrie AG today as follows:

Pierer Industrie AG has acquired a total of 12,215,958 KTM Industries-shares (this corresponds to approximately 5.42% of the share capital) from board members of KTM Industries AG and persons having a close relationship to the company at a price of EUR 4.80 per share.

Thus, Pierer Konzerngesellschaft mbH still holds around 63.61% and Pierer Industrie AG around 5.42% of the share capital of KTM Industries AG.
