Frankfurt am Main – June, 17 2020 – The Management Board of the Northern Data AG (ISIN DE000A0SMU87, WKN A0SMU8, ticker NB2) today resolved with the approval of the Supervisory Board to increase the Company’s issued share capital by issuing 431,225 new no-par value ordinary bearer shares. This corresponds to 3.64% of the current share capital. The shares are issued against cash contributions partially utilizing the existing authorized capital and excluding the existing shareholders’ subscription rights.
