ALTIN: 2011 annual report

Baar, 2 April 2012 - ALTIN AG (SIX: ALT, LSE: AIA), the Swiss alternative investment company listed on the London and Swiss stock exchanges, publishes its annual report for the year 2011 today. The annual report is available on the company's web site under the "About ALTIN"/"Reports & Publications" section (https://www.altin.ch/about-altin/publications/index.htm). A detailed release will be distributed following the Annual General Meeting on 25 April.

In accordance with the new dividend policy announced on 24 November 2011, the Board of Directors proposes to shareholders to accept a dividend of CHF 4.10 per share, paid out of share premium reserves. This amount corresponds to 7% of the NAV as per 31 December 2011 representing a dividend yield of 9.3% based on the end-of-year share price1, and is therefore significantly higher than initially expected. With this proposal, the Board of Directors intends to establish ALTIN as an even more appealing investment, by attracting a wider pool of investors.

For the time being, the Board of Directors does not intend to propose the election of a new Board member, in replacement of Francesco Rossi who passed away in autumn 2011.

The invitation to the General Assembly and the annual report are available on the company's web site under "About ALTIN"/"Reports & Publications", respectively "Other documents" and "Annual Reports" sections (https://www.altin.ch/about-altin/publications/index.htm).
