Kontron Acquisition GmbH Initiates Squeeze-Out of KATEK SE

Kontron Acquisition GmbH, an indirect subsidiary of Kontron AG, has announced a squeeze-out of KATEK SE under stock corporation law. As of November 10, 2025, Kontron Acquisition GmbH holds approximately 96.86% of KATEK SE's shares, exceeding the 95% threshold required for this procedure.

The company has asked KATEK SE's Management Board to schedule an Annual General Meeting to decide on transferring the remaining shares to Kontron Acquisition GmbH. The cash compensation for minority shareholders will be evaluated by an appointed auditor and disclosed in a forthcoming request. KATEK SE will notify shareholders about the meeting date in line with statutory guidelines.

This strategic move consolidates Kontron's position and further expands its presence in the IoT sector.
