On June 4, 2024, PALFINGER AG celebrated its 25th anniversary on the Vienna
Stock Exchange. This milestone marks a quarter century of growth and
innovation.

History and stock exchange listing
PALFINGER AG has been listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange since June 4,
1999. The share is part of the ATX Prime and ATX Global Players Index as
well as the Austrian Sustainability Index VÖNIX and has been included in the
MSCI Global Small Cap Index since 2018. In addition, the share is OTC traded
on the stock exchanges in Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Berlin, Munich and
Düsseldorf.

Successes since the IPO
'Since the IPO on June 4, 1999, PALFINGER has become established as the
world's leading provider of innovative crane and lifting solutions. The IPO
made it possible to expand the financing base and achieve our strategic
goals. Access to capital markets has significantly supported growth,' says
Andreas Klauser, CEO of PALFINGER AG. Since the IPO, revenue has increased
tenfold from EUR 243 million to EUR 2.45 billion.

Share price development
The PALFINGER share price has more than quadrupled since the IPO with a
price of EUR 5.25. As a result, PALFINGER shares also outperformed ATX
during this period, which only increased by around three times during the
period. With a current share price of over EUR 24.0, PALFINGER AG is listed
on the stock exchange with a market capitalization of more than EUR 900
million. The current analyst consensus is EUR 28.5.

Dividend policy
PALFINGER pursues a continuous dividend policy, with around a third of the
annual profit being distributed to shareholders. For fiscal year 2023, a
record dividend of EUR 1.05 per share was paid out to shareholders. This
corresponds to a dividend yield of 4.0 percent.

Why the IPO?
The IPO has brought PALFINGER many advantages, including increased
transparency through regular reporting, improved access to capital for
growth initiatives, strengthening the brand through public awareness and an
expanded pool of investors with institutional and private shareholders
worldwide. 'We have been able to successfully place several promissory note
loans, with the last two being linked to sustainability indicators,' adds
Felix Strohbichler, CFO of PALFINGER AG.
