Eckert & Ziegler Focuses on Core Competence and Prepares Split-Off of Clinical Assets

The Supervisory Board of Eckert & Ziegler AG (ISIN DE0005659700, SDAX) today has given its approval to the Executive Board to examine and prepare a split-off of up to 100 percent of the shares in the Pentixapharm AG (PTX). In accordance with IFRS 5, the Executive Board will report PTX as a discontinued operation in the 2023 annual financial statements. A separate decision will be taken at a later date on the specific start and the manner of the exit. In accordance with IFRS 5, the Executive Board will report PTX as a discontinued operation in the 2023 annual financial statements. PTX also includes Myelo Therapeutics GmbH.

Given the enormous growth forecast for active pharmaceutical ingredients, which is already reflected in the order intake, Eckert & Ziegler intends to pool its financial resources to expand its global manufacturing capacities. Eckert & Ziegler is thus concentrating on its core competencies in order to further expand its position as a leading supplier of radioisotopes for the production of radiopharmaceuticals.

The forecast for the financial year 2023 remains unchanged.
