Following the outcome of the public tender offer to the shareholders of Scania Aktiebolag (“Scania”), Volkswagen now controls more than 98 percent of all shares in Scania. Since Volkswagen has initiated compulsory acquisition of the remaining shares and Scania will be delisted on 5 June and thus, not be a listed company at the time of the Annual General Meeting, Volkswagen has notified the company that it proposes that no dividend shall be paid to the shareholders of Scania for the financial year 2013.

As communicated earlier, the acceptance period for the public offer to the shareholders of Scania has been extended until 5 June 2014 at 5:00 pm (CET).
