GE Aviation is part of the General Electric Group, USA. GE Germany Holdings AG, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of GE Aviation, will conduct the offer. GE Aviation is offering shareholders EUR 38.00 in cash per share. Subject to a review of the offer document and on the basis of a Business Combination Agreement concluded yesterday, SLM Solutions&#8217; Executive and Supervisory boards intend to support the envisaged takeover offer. <\/p>\n<p>Both companies welcome the planned integration of their areas of activity as a major and long- term opportunity for their customers, employees and shareholders. Hans-Joachim Ihde, founder and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of SLM Solutions Group AG, expresses his pleasure: &#8220;General Electric has already accompanied us as a user and customer since our inception. They assumed a pioneering role in aerospace technology and were early to identify the benefits of selective laser melting \u2013 for example in terms of savings in the weight of components. They are entirely familiar with SLM Solutions&#8217; multi-laser technology and its advantages vis-a-vis our competitors.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>In a Business Combination Agreement concluded between GE Aviation and SLM Solutions on September 6, 2016, GE Aviation stated its intention to continue to foster and support SLM Solutions&#8217; innovative corporate culture in the future. Along with the commitment to maintain and expand the headquarter in L\u00fcbeck and the company&#8217;s other sites, this also includes a commitment to the workforce and existing management as the drivers of the company&#8217;s success. GE Aviation also plans to support the company&#8217;s further growth in various ways, for example by improved global product and service distribution. The existing customer base is going to be maintained and expanded. The further development of SLM Solutions into a supplier of solutions for additive manufacturing is an important strategic step for GE Aviation on its path to becoming a digital industrial company.<\/p>\n<p>Since its IPO in 2014, SLM Solutions pursues a three pillar strategy that includes not only expanding the worldwide sales and service network, but also focuses on research and development and on the company&#8217;s further development into an integrated solutions supplier. Since the beginning of this year, strategic partnerships in the areas consumables and software have been concluded which will contribute to the further distribution of additive manufacturing processes in the industry and improve its user-friendliness.<\/p>\n<p>CEO Dr. Markus Rechlin explains the advantages of a merger: &#8220;GE Aviation is a strong partner with outstanding technology expertise. Together, we will continue to develop our technology at our site in L\u00fcbeck and position our company on an even broader basis as part of a large, internationally successful group. We expect the takeover to accelerate SLM Solutions&#8217; evolution into a comprehensive systems supplier. For this reason, the takeover offers great opportunities for our employees and customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Uwe B\u00f6gershausen, CFO of SLM Solutions, adds: &#8220;We have kept our word over the past years, having continuously grown faster than the market, and also always achieved our operational goals as announced. Obviously, we are an interesting partner for GE Aviation also in this regard.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>After receiving the offer document that GE Aviation is going to publish, the Executive and Supervisory boards of SLM Solutions Group AG will issue a detailed opinion on the offer in accordance with their statutory obligations. Subject to the review of the offer document, the Executive and Supervisory boards currently intend to support the envisaged takeover offer. The opinion of the Executive and Supervisory boards will be published on the company&#8217;s website at www.slm-solutions.com\/investor-relations. <\/p>\n<p>If the takeover offer is successful, 31.5 % of the company&#8217;s shares, which are currently held by existing shareholders, will be transferred to GE Aviation: The Chairman of the Supervisory Board Hans-Joachim Ihde currently holds around 24.1 % of the 17,980,867 SLM Solutions shares via Ceresio GmbH. Executive Board member Henner Sch\u00f6neborn and his family currently hold shares of approximately 2.0 %. Further, Parcom Deutschland I GmbH &amp; Co. KG holds approximately 5.4 % of the shares in SLM Solutions Group AG. <\/p>\n<p>The implementation of the takeover offer will be subject to a few market standard conditions, in particular a minimum acceptance threshold of 75 % and the approval by the competent anti-trust authorities. <\/p>\n<p>ABOUT THE COMPANY<br \/>\nL\u00fcbeck-based SLM Solutions Group AG is a leading provider of metal-based additive manufacturing technology.

September 2016 \u2013 Der weltweit f\u00fchrende Hersteller von Flugzeugtriebwerken GE Aviation hat heute seine Entscheidung zur Abgabe eines freiwilligen \u00f6ffentlichen \u00dcbernahmeangebots f\u00fcr alle ausstehenden Aktien der SLM Solutions Group AG mitgeteilt. GE Aviation geh\u00f6rt zum US-amerikanischen General Electric-Konzern. Das Angebot soll von der GE Germany Holdings AG, einer indirekten hundertprozentigen Tochtergesellschaft der GE Aviation, durchgef\u00fchrt werden. Den Aktion\u00e4ren bietet GE Aviation einen Geldbetrag von 38,00 EUR je Aktie. Vorbehaltlich der Pr\u00fcfung der Angebotsunterlage beabsichtigen Vorstand und Aufsichtsrat von SLM Solutions, das geplante \u00dcbernahmeangebot auf Basis einer gestern getroffenen Zusammenschlussvereinbarung zu unterst\u00fctzen.\r\n\r\nBeide Unternehmen begr\u00fc\u00dfen die geplante Zusammenf\u00fchrung ihrer T\u00e4tigkeitsfelder als eine gro\u00dfe und langfristige Chance f\u00fcr ihre Kunden, Mitarbeiter und Aktion\u00e4re. Hans-Joachim Ihde, Gr\u00fcnder und Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender der SLM Solutions Group AG, freut sich: \u201eGeneral Electric begleitet uns als Anwender und Kunde schon seit unserer Anfangszeit. In der Luft- und Raumfahrttechnik haben sie eine Vorreiterrolle eingenommen und fr\u00fchzeitig die Vorteile des selektiven Laserschmelzens \u2013 zum Beispiel beim eingesparten Gewicht der Bauteile \u2013 erkannt. Mit der Multi-Laser-Technologie von SLM Solutions und ihren Vorz\u00fcgen im Wettbewerb sind sie bestens vertraut.\u201c \r\n\r\nIm Rahmen der am 6. September 2016 zwischen GE Aviation und SLM Solutions geschlossenen Zusammenschlussvereinbarung hat GE Aviation erkl\u00e4rt, die bestehende innovative Unternehmenskultur von SLM Solutions auch in Zukunft zu f\u00f6rdern. Darunter f\u00e4llt neben der Zusage, den Hauptsitz in L\u00fcbeck sowie die weiteren Standorte der Gesellschaft zu erhalten und auszubauen, auch ein Bekenntnis zur Belegschaft und zum bestehenden Management als Treiber des Unternehmenserfolgs. Dar\u00fcber hinaus plant GE Aviation, das weitere Wachstum der Gesellschaft auf vielf\u00e4ltige Art zu unterst\u00fctzen, beispielsweise durch eine verbesserte weltweite Verbreitung der Produkte und Serviceleistungen. Die bestehende Kundenbasis soll erhalten bleiben und ausgebaut werden. Die Weiterentwicklung von SLM Solutions zum Anbieter von L\u00f6sungen f\u00fcr die additive Fertigung ist f\u00fcr GE Aviation ein strategisch wichtiger Schritt auf dem Weg zum digitalen Industrieunternehmen.\r\n\r\nBereits seit dem B\u00f6rsengang im Jahr 2014 verfolgt SLM Solutions eine Drei-S\u00e4ulen-Strategie, die neben dem Ausbau des weltweiten Vertriebs- und Servicenetzwerks auch einen Schwerpunkt auf Forschung und Entwicklung sowie die Weiterentwicklung zum integrierten L\u00f6sungsanbieter umfasst. Seit Jahresbeginn wurden strategische Partnerschaften in den Bereichen Verbrauchsmaterialien und Software geschlossen, die einen Beitrag zur weiteren Verbreitung additiver Fertigungsverfahren in der Industrie und einer Verbesserung der Anwenderfreundlichkeit leisten sollen.\r\n\r\nDer Vorstandsvorsitzende Dr. Markus Rechlin erkl\u00e4rt die Vorteile eines Zusammenschlusses: \u201eGE Aviation ist ein starker Partner mit herausragender Technologiekompetenz. Gemeinsam werden wir am Standort L\u00fcbeck unsere Zukunftstechnologie weiter entwickeln und unser Unternehmen als Teil eines international erfolgreichen Gro\u00dfkonzerns noch breiter aufstellen. Wir erwarten, dass sich die Weiterentwicklung von SLM Solutions zum umfassenden Systemanbieter durch die \u00dcbernahme noch beschleunigt. F\u00fcr unsere Mitarbeiter und Kunden bietet der Zusammenschluss deshalb gro\u00dfe Chancen.\u201c\r\n\r\nUwe B\u00f6gershausen, Finanzvorstand von SLM Solutions, erg\u00e4nzt: \u201eWir haben in den letzten Jahren unser Wort gehalten. Wir sind kontinuierlich schneller gewachsen als der Markt und haben auch operativ stets das Angek\u00fcndigte in die Tat umgesetzt. Auch insofern sind wir f\u00fcr GE Aviation nat\u00fcrlich ein interessanter Partner.\u201c\r\n\r\nVorstand und Aufsichtsrat der SLM Solutions Group AG werden im Einklang mit ihren gesetzlichen Verpflichtungen nach Erhalt der durch GE Aviation zu ver\u00f6ffentlichenden Angebotsunterlage zu dem Angebot im Detail Stellung nehmen. Vorbehaltlich der Pr\u00fcfung der Angebotsunterlage beabsichtigen Vorstand und Aufsichtsrat derzeit, das geplante \u00dcbernahmeangebot zu unterst\u00fctzen. Die Stellungnahme des Vorstands und des Aufsichtsrats wird auf der Homepage der Gesellschaft unter www.slm-solutions.com\/investor-relations ver\u00f6ffentlicht werden.\r\n\r\nSollte das \u00dcbernahmeangebot erfolgreich sein, werden 31,5 % der Aktien der Gesellschaft, die derzeit von Altaktion\u00e4re gehalten werden, auf GE Aviation \u00fcbertragen: Der Aufsichtsratsvorsitzende Hans-Joachim Ihde h\u00e4lt \u00fcber die Ceresio GmbH derzeit rund 24,1 % der 17.980.867 SLM Solutions-Aktien. Das Vorstandsmitglied Henner Sch\u00f6neborn und seine Familie halten derzeit Aktien in H\u00f6he von ca. 2,0 %. Weitere ca. 5,4 % der Aktien an der SLM Solutions Group AG werden von der Parcom Deutschland I GmbH & Co. KG gehalten.\r\n\r\nDie Durchf\u00fchrung des \u00dcbernahmeangebots wird unter wenigen markt\u00fcblichen Bedingungen stehen, insbesondere dem Erreichen einer Mindestannahmeschwelle von 75 % und der Freigabe durch die zust\u00e4ndigen Kartellbeh\u00f6rden.\r\n\r\n\u00dcBER DAS UNTERNEHMEN\r\nDie SLM Solutions Group AG aus L\u00fcbeck ist ein f\u00fchrender Anbieter metallbasierter additiver Fertigungstechnologie. Die Aktien des Unternehmens werden im Prime Standard der Frankfurter Wertpapierb\u00f6rse gehandelt. Seit dem 21. M\u00e4rz 2016 ist die Aktie im TecDAX gelistet. Das Unternehmen konzentriert sich auf die Entwicklung, Montage und den Vertrieb von Maschinen und integrierten Systeml\u00f6sungen im Bereich des Selektiven Laserschmelzens (Selective Laser Melting).
