Munich, May 13, 2024 - Blue Cap AG ('Blue Cap') today publishes the
invitation and thus further preliminary information on this year's Annual
General Meeting on June 24, 2024.
After three years of conducting a virtual Annual General Meeting, the
Executive Board and Supervisory Board have decided to hold this year's
Annual General Meeting as an in-person event in Munich. Dr. Henning von
Kottwitz, CEO, comments: 'We are delighted to welcome our shareholders in
person again and hope for a lively attendance. While the virtual Annual
General Meeting has proven to be an efficient option, we would like to
explicitly promote the exchange of ideas between our investors and the
management by organizing an in-person event.'
In addition to the regular topics of every Annual General Meeting, including
the vote on the previously communicated dividend proposal of EUR 0.65 per
share, the agenda also includes changes to the Supervisory Board.
Ms. Kirsten Lange, current Chairwoman of the Supervisory Board, has informed
the company that she will be stepping down from her position with effect
from this year's Annual General Meeting. The Executive Board and Supervisory
Board express their sincere thanks to Ms. Lange for her great commitment and
valuable support and wish her all the best for the future. Former
Supervisory Board member Dr. Henning von Kottwitz has resigned early with
effect from September 30, 2023 following his appointment as Chairman of the
Executive Board of Blue Cap.
With Dr. Christian Diekmann and Mr. Nikolaus Wiegand, the Supervisory Board
is proposing two highly qualified candidates to the shareholders, who will
ideally complement the Supervisory Board with their individual experience
and personalities and will be able to support the further development of
Blue Cap.
Dr. Diekmann, who, if elected, will serve as Chairman of the Supervisory
Board, holds a doctorate in business administration and began his
international career as a management consultant at McKinsey in Cologne and
Chicago. In recent years, he has held various executive and supervisory
board positions. Thus, Dr. Diekmann was CEO and Chairman of the Board of
Directors of Max Automation SE. Previously, he was CFO of the ZRT/Zertus
Group as well as CFO and Chief Human Resources Officer of comdirect Bank AG.
Dr. Diekmann currently works as a freelance consultant for family offices,
companies and corporate groups.
Nikolaus Wiegand studied business administration and started his career as
managing director of a communications agency. Since 1996, he has been
Managing Director of the Wiegand-Glas Group, which develops and produces
glass and PET packaging concepts for the food and beverage industry. Mr.
Wiegand also serves as Managing Director of JotWe GmbH, which acquired a
substantial stake in Blue Cap in December 2022. JotWe GmbH currently holds
15.3% of Blue Cap's share capital.The complete invitation to this year's
