Wolters Kluwer Completes Capital
Reduction
Alphen aan den Rijn – September 13, 2024 - Wolters
Kluwer announces that it has completed the reduction in share
capital approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of
Shareholders held on May 8, 2024.
The company confirms that 10,000,000 ordinary shares held in
treasury have now been cancelled. The total number of issued
ordinary shares is therefore reduced to 238,516,153 (previously
248,516,153).
Following this cancellation, the number of shares held in
treasury is now 2,345,322 and, in accordance with regulatory
requirements, Wolters Kluwer has notified the Dutch Authority for
the Financial Markets (AFM) of the change in its issued share
capital and that it currently holds 0.98% of total issued ordinary
shares.
Shares repurchased by the company are added to and held as
treasury shares, to be used for capital reduction purposes through
share cancellation. Part of these treasury shares may be retained
and used to meet future obligations under share-based incentive
schemes.
