Company Information
20.09.2007
Duisburg, September 20, 2007 - The Supervisory Board and the Board of
Management of Klöckner & Co AG have resolved to propose a 
transformation from an Aktiengesellschaft (AG - German stock 
corporation) into a European public limited-liability company (SE - 
Societas Europaea) at the Company´s Annual General Meeting next year.
The intended legal form reflects the international position and 
orientation of the Klöckner & Co Group: Klöckner & Co is represented 
in 15 countries with over 250 locations and generated roughly 75% of 
its sales outside of Germany in the first half of 2007. Including 
Germany, approximately 85% of the total sales was generated in 
Europe. The primary objective of the transformation into an SE is to 
evolve the historically grown, country-oriented organization into a 
European organization, and thus better and more efficiently utilize 
the possibilities of the common market than has been done up till 
now.
The Company´s headquarters will remain in Duisburg, Germany. Besides,
no further changes within the group are associated with the 
transformation. The two-tier model of a supervisory board and a board
of management shall be continued. Preparations for the formation of a
special negotiating body  - responsible for the negotiations 
concerning the future involvement of employees in the SE - have 
begun. The objective is to conclude the negotiations before the next 
Annual General Meeting.
