PAION AG SUCCESSFULLY HOLDS ITS ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 2023
- At the AGM presence of the share capital at around 16%
- Dr. Karin Louise Dorrepaal appointed as member of the Supervisory Board for a further term of office
- Attorney-at-law Dr. Mirko Sickinger newly elected to the Supervisory Board
Aachen, 12 July 2023 – PAION AG (ISIN DE000A3E5EG5; Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Prime Standard: PA8K), a specialty pharmaceutical company with innovative compounds for use in outpatient and in-hospital sedation, anesthesia and intensive care, successfully held its Annual General Meeting in virtual form today. All items on the agenda were passed with a large majority. Around 16% of the share capital was represented at the Annual General Meeting.
With regard to the elections to the Supervisory Board, Dr. Karin Louise Dorrepaal was appointed by the General Meeting as a member of the Company's Supervisory Board for a further term of office. Furthermore, the meeting elected Dr. Mirko Jean Sickinger, lawyer and partner at the law firm Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek, as a new member of the company's Supervisory Board. The background to this is that due to his activity on the Management Board, Mr. Gregor Siebert's membership of the Supervisory Board was suspended and his term of office as a member of the Supervisory Board ended at the end of the Annual General Meeting. With Mr. Siebert's departure from the Supervisory Board, a position on the Supervisory Board therefore became vacant.
At the Annual General Meeting, the Management Board of PAION AG gave the shareholders an overview of the progress made in the commercialization of the product portfolio and the further implementation of the corporate strategy. Gregor Siebert, CEO of PAION AG, commented: "We would like to thank all our shareholders for the trust they have placed in us in the past fiscal year. In the current year 2023, we will continue to drive forward the implementation of our strategy with great motivation in order to lead PAION onto a sustainably profitable growth path in the coming years with innovative products such as Byfavo®. With the approval of Byfavo® for general anesthesia, which we are currently preparing to launch, we will be able to tap into another growth market that is essential for us."
Baker Tilly Holding GmbH & Co. KG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft, Head Office Düsseldorf, Branch Office Munich was appointed as auditor and group auditor for the financial year 2023.
All voting results of the Annual General Meeting will be available soon on the company's website at https://www.paion.com/media-and-investors/annual-general-meeting.
