Leipzig, August 25, 2023 – The shareholders have today approved a resolution to convert VERBIO Vereinigte BioEnergie AG into the legal form of an SE (Societas Europaea). The agenda item carrying this resolution was approved by 99.99 percent of the voting share capital represented at the meeting. The Management Board of VERBIO considers the European Company to be a modern legal form which is suitable and appropriate in the long term for VERBIO’s size and international presence. Of the 840 employees in Germany alone, 164 employees are from other nations. The new legal form of the SE enables the Company to continue on its path of achieving targeted growth while maintaining its existing corporate governance structure based on the dualistic management system consisting of a Supervisory Board and a Management Board. The conversion will take effect from the date on which it is registered at the commercial register. It is anticipated that this will be completed by the end of the year.

The current members of the Supervisory Board, Alexander von Witzleben, Ulrike Krämer and Dr. Klaus Niemann, have been elected as the first Supervisory Board of Verbio SE. Christian Doll has been elected as a replacement member.
