Jena (Germany), September 20, 2013 – Today, Analytik Jena AG (Prime Standard: AJA, ISIN: DE0005213508) announced the successful completion of the cash capital increase with subscription rights of shareholders approved on September 4, 2013.

As a result of the capital increase, all of the 1,950,232 new, no-par-value bearer shares were placed at a subscription price of EUR 12.50 per share. The transaction resulted in gross proceeds prior to expenses, commissions, or fees of approximately EUR 24.4 m. The share capital of the Company thus increases from EUR 5,705,465 to EUR 7,655,697.

The shareholders Endress+Hauser (Deutschland) AG+Co. KG for the Endress+Hauser Group, Reinach, Switzerland, and the Beteiligungsfonds Thüringer Industriebeteiligungs-GmbH & Co. KG (TIB) managed by bm-t beteilungsmanagement thüringen gmbh (bm-t), Erfurt, Germany, have exercised their subscription rights to the previously agreed upon extent. Overall, the subscription ratio was 86.6 %.

As agreed, Ruesch Holding AG, Unterägeri, Switzerland, acquired the 260,554 shares not subscribed by existing shareholders after the subscription period had expired. Endress+Hauser had previously informed Analytik Jena that Ruesch Holding AG will transfer the new shares it acquired to a group company of Endress+Hauser Group, subject to the antitrust authorization for this transfer by the Bundeskartellamt (German Federal Cartel Office). If antitrust authorization is not granted, Ruesch Holding AG will resell the acquired new shares at the best possible price to third parties. Specific information about this transaction can be found in the security prospectus published at http://www.analytik-jena.de/de/unternehmen/investoren/wertpapierprospekt/wertpapierprospekt.html

The implementation of the capital increase is expected to be entered into the commercial register of the Jena Local Court on September 23, 2013. The inclusion of the new shares in the existing listing and the delivery of the new shares are scheduled for September 24, 2013. IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG is acting as sole lead manager in the context of the capital increase.
