DIC Asset AG postpones Annual General Meeting

Frankfurt am Main, 14 March 2020. The Board of Directors of DIC Asset AG (ISIN: DE000A1X3XX4) has today decided not to hold the Annual General Meeting on 17 March 2020 as planned due to the general ruling of the responsible local health authority in Frankfurt am Main to ban events with more than 200 participants as of 13 March 2020 and to protect the health of all participants in the Annual General Meeting. The Company will hold the Annual General Meeting at a later date in 2020. This will inevitably result in a corresponding postponement of the resolution on the use of net profits and the dividend payment.

Depending on the further course of the wave of infection, DIC Asset AG aims to set a new date as quickly as possible and to re-invite shareholders to the Annual General Meeting.

The current situation and global spread of the corona virus (COVID-19) are decisive for the decision. The Robert Koch Institute and the responsible health authorities in Germany assume that the number of infections will increase significantly in the coming weeks. For DIC Asset AG, the health of its shareholders, employees and service providers is of top priority.

Information from the Frankfurt Health Authority on the ban on events with more than 200 participants can be found under the following website: https://frankfurt.de/aktuelle-meldung/sondermeldungen/allgemeinverfuegung-des-gesundheitsamtes/
