Ad hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 LR
Wels, October 23, 2025
PIERER Mobility AG: Takeover Commission confirms restructuring privilege
for acquisition of control by Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V.
• No obligation to make a mandatory takeover bid to the shareholders of
PIERER Mobility AG
• Imposition of conditions and requirements by the Takeover Commission
Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. intends to acquire all 50,100
shares held by Pierer Industrie AG in Pierer Bajaj AG. The relevant
agreements, namely a share purchase agreement relating to the acquisition
of 100 shares in Pierer Bajaj AG and a call option agreement relating to
the acquisition of up to 50,000 shares in Pierer Bajaj AG, were concluded
in April and May 2025. Both agreements are subject to the same regulatory
conditions precedent with regard to merger control, subvention control and
investment control approvals, as well as the further condition precedent
that the acquisition of control by Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V.
over Pierer Bajaj AG and thus indirectly over PIERER Mobility AG does not
trigger a mandatory takeover bid under the provisions of the Austrian
Takeover Act (ÜbG). All necessary merger control approvals have already
been granted.
The Austrian Takeover Commission has served a decision to Bajaj Auto
International Holdings B.V. on 23 October 2025, confirming that these two
transactions together lead to Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V.
indirectly acquiring control over PIERER Mobility AG and that this
acquisition of control is carried out for restructuring purposes within
the meaning of Section 25 para 1 no.2 of the Austrian Takeover Act (ÜbG).
In order to protect the financial interests of the other shareholders, the
following condition was imposed by the Austrian Takeover Commission in
accordance with Section 25 para 2 of the Austrian Takeover Act (ÜbG):
Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. is neither obliged under Section 22
nor under Section 25 para 2 of the Austrian Takeover Act (ÜbG) to make a
mandatory takeover bid to the shareholders of PIERER Mobility AG if the
call option agreement dated 22 May 2025 is exercised in full within 20
trading days following the non-prohibition of the merger pursuant to
Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 and the fulfilment of all conditions precedent
of the call option agreement.
In order to protect the financial interests of the other shareholders, the
following conditions were imposed in accordance with Section 25 para 2 of
the Austrian Takeover Act (ÜbG):
(i) Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. must immediately inform the
Takeover Commission of the non-prohibition of the merger pursuant to
Regulation (EU) 2022/2560 and the fulfilment of all conditions precedent
of the call option agreement and must immediately publish the change of
control at PIERER Mobility AG.
(ii) Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. and all legal entities acting
in concert with it pursuant to Section 1 no. 6 of the Austrian Takeover
Act (ÜbG) must also report
a. to the Takeover Commission immediately after completion of the
transaction, submitting the relevant agreements and
b. to the general meeting of PIERER Mobility AG, which follows a possible
acquisition of shares in MR IMMOREAL GmbH by KTM AG, on the terms and
conditions of the acquisition of shares, in particular the purchase price,
in MR IMMOREAL GmbH by KTM AG.
(iii) Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. and all legal entities acting
in concert with it pursuant to Section 1 no. 6 of the Austrian Takeover
Act (ÜbG) furthermore have to report to
a. the Takeover Commission immediately after conclusion of the respective
agreement or execution of the respective legal transaction, and
b. to the general meetings of PIERER Mobility AG,
under what conditions agreements or legal transactions, which are
economically related to the acquisition of control of PIERER Mobility AG
by Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V., are concluded between Bajaj
Auto International Holdings B.V. or legal entities acting in concert with
it on the one hand and Dipl. Ing. Stefan Pierer or legal entities acting
in concert with him on the other hand up to and including 31 December 2026
The Executive Board of PIERER Mobility AG was notified by Bajaj Auto
International Holdings B.V. that
a. the non-prohibition of the merger pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2022/2560
and the fulfilment of all conditions of Section 2 of the call option
agreement are expected by 10 November 2025, and
b. Bajaj Auto International Holdings B.V. intends to exercise the call
option agreement with regard to all 50,000 shares in PIERER Bajaj AG,
thereby indirectly acquiring sole control over PIERER Mobility AG.
