Mielenkiintoinen sivujuonne. Vartalla on menossa konkurssimenettely, jonka luultavana lopputulemana firma poistetaan pörssistä. Osakkeenomistajat jää nuolemaan näppejään ja omistus päätyy pilkkahintaan jollekin Tojnerin firmalle - sekä Porschelle.
The restructuring concept
In the summer, the Group agreed on a restructuring concept with key creditors. The concept essentially provides for two steps: Firstly, a debt haircut and the extension of loans are to reduce liabilities from almost half a billion euros to 230 million euros. In addition, the share capital of Varta AG is to be reduced to zero euros. The effect: shareholders will leave the company without compensation and the Group will lose its stock exchange listing.
Shares are then to be issued again - but only to one of Tojner’s companies and the sports car manufacturer Porsche, which is part of the VW Group. Both companies are paying 30 million euros each. The creditors will provide 60 million as a loan.
