BUWOG AG to become an ATX member

Membership in Austria's most relevant share index already four months after public listing

 

Vienna, 03 September 2014 - The ATX Committee of the Vienna Stock Exchange has announced in the course of its bi-annual review of the index composition that the shares of BUWOG AG (ISIN: AT00BUWOG001) will be included into the Austrian Traded Index (ATX) effective from 22 Sept. 2014. The ATX is the most important share index in Austria and reflects the turnover development of the 20 most important shares traded on the Vienna Stock Exchange. An assessment takes place on a regular basis in March and September of each year. After the spin-off from its former parent company IMMOFINANZ AG and its successful public listing at the end of April this year BUWOG AG has now achieved to become a member of the leading Austrian index ATX after only four months on the stock exchange and at the first possible time. Deciding factors for the inclusion into the ATX were the positive development of turnover and the free float capitalisation of BUWOG AG shares.

"For Vienna the ATX was our aim from the beginning - and I am more than happy that BUWOG AG qualified instantly for ATX inclusion. The listing in Vienna will continue to play a particularly important role for our company. BUWOG AG is deeply rooted in Austria and the largest share of its individual shareholders comes from Austria", says Daniel Riedl, CEO of BUWOG Group.
