Steyr Motors: Free float increases to 80% following share reallocation by
Mutares
• Mutares SE & Co. KGaA sells its remaining 23% stake in line with its
strategy – Positive signal, as expected step enables entry of
institutional investors
• Very strong demand from international institutional investors, as well
as the United States
• Broadly diversified and significantly expanded shareholder base with a
stable anchor shareholder (B&C Holding), free float (including
management) now at 80%
• Improved share liquidity increases attractiveness for private and
institutional investors
Steyr, Austria, 20 November 2025 – Steyr Motors AG ([1]ISIN AT0000A3FW25),
one of the world's leading companies in the field of customized engines
for mission-critical defense and civil applications, was informed that
Mutares SE & Co. KGaA has sold its remaining 23% stake in Steyr Motors AG.
The total of 1,213,206 shares held by Mutares SE & Co. KGaA were very
successfully placed with international institutional investors, including
those from the United States, as part of a private placement. The broad
and very strong interest shown by numerous international investors
underscores Steyr Motors' high capital market attractiveness and
confidence in the Company's medium- and long-term growth potential.
The transaction will significantly broaden Steyr Motors' shareholder
structure: B&C Holding Österreich GmbH will remain a reliable anchor
shareholder with a 20% stake and a long-term commitment. The remaining 80%
of the shares are in free float, including the share packages held by
management. The significantly increased free float improves the liquidity
of the share in daily trading, which further increases its attractiveness
for private and institutional investors. At the same time, a broader
shareholder base leads to greater market transparency and fairer pricing.
Positive signal from entry of new institutional investors – Mutares exit
follows the logic of its business model
Mutares SE & Co. KGaA acquired Steyr Motors from Thales in the fourth
quarter of 2022 as part of a carve-out and successfully implemented a
rapid and highly successful operational turnaround. The listing on the
Frankfurt Stock Exchange took place in October 2024, followed by a
secondary listing on the Vienna Stock Exchange in early 2025. The sale of
the Mutares share package is not a signal against the business model or
prospects of Steyr Motors. Rather, it aligns fully with Mutares' strategic
approach of divesting investments again after a successful operational
turnaround. The transaction was therefore to be expected and is fully
consistent with the Mutares strategy. For Steyr Motors, the entry of new
institutional investors is positive, as they will accompany and support
the company's planned substantial growth potential in the long term.
Julian Cassutti, CEO of Steyr Motors, comments: “The successful placement
of Mutares' share package is a significant milestone for our company. The
strong interest shown by the new international institutional investors
demonstrates that the operational development of Steyr Motors AG, our
strategic positioning as a leading supplier of drive solutions for the
most demanding requirements in the civil and military sectors, and our
medium- and long-term prospects are receiving an extremely positive
response. With our expanded investor base and a strong anchor shareholder,
B&C Holding, at our side, we are ideally positioned to enter the next
phase of our international growth.”
