Maintal, 8 June 2011
NORMA Group will move to the German small-cap segment of Deutsche Börse SDAX only two months after the successful IPO.
Following the meeting of its Stock Index Committee, Deutsche Börse announced on 6 June 2011 that NORMA Group AG ("NORMA Group"), an international market and technology leader for engineered joining technology, will be included in the SDAX index. The changes will become effective from 20 June, 2011.
“We are excited that NORMA Group will be included in the SDAX only two months after its successful IPO,” said Werner Deggim, CEO of NORMA Group. “The swift admittance to the small cap index of Deutsche Börse is an indication that we are on the right track to continue our growth path.”
“By opting for the Prime Standard of the regulated market of Frankfurt Stock Exchange and thus for highest international transparency standards, we already laid the foundation for a transparent and comprehensive capital market communication when we took NORMA Group public on 8 April,” said Dr. Othmar Belker, CFO of NORMA Group. “The inclusion in the SDAX is a first important step for us to significantly increase NORMA Group's visibility in the capital markets.”
