Due to the Corona crisis, NORMA Group SE (ISIN DE 000A1H8BV3 / WKN A1H8BV, "NORMA Group") a global market leader in engineered joining and fluid-handling technology, has decided to reduce production shifts and to interrupt production processes in its sites in the EMEA and the Americas regions starting next week. The duration of these measures depends on the further development of demand as well as the corona crisis. It cannot be ruled out that sites in the Asia-Pacific region will also be affected.
The impact on the financial figures 2020 has still to be determined. They will probably be below the latest market expectations.
The Annual General Meeting, formerly scheduled for May 14, 2020 shall be postponed to June 30, 2020. From today's perspective, it shall be proposed to the Annual General Meeting to suspend the dividend for 2019.
