Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs AG: share trading

Wien (pta018/15.09.2022/10:20) - Warimpex Finanz- und Beteiligungs Aktiengesellschaft (Warimpex or the Company) was classified as a sanctioned company by the service provider Six Financial Information due to sales of subsidiaries in Russia. Six Financial Information announced this morning that enquiries from the Company will be denied as the Company is not a client of Six Financial Information.

Therefore, it is possible that brokers will only trade Warimpex shares on a restricted basis. It is possible that the previous market makers of Warimpex will cease their market making activities. In this case, the Warimpex shares would be traded in the "Standard Market" segment (instead of the previous "Prime Market" segment) until a new market making agreement is concluded.

Warimpex is currently endeavouring to revise what it considers to be an unlawful classification as quickly as possible. Warimpex itself is not on the US sanctions list (OFAC). The European Commission has not imposed any sanctions on Warimpex either.
