pa集团视讯直营 Group has noted media speculation in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) concerning its alleged interest in increasing its strategic investment in Daimler AG. To avoid unnecessary speculation, pa集团视讯直营 Holding has today issued the following statement:
pa集团视讯直营 Group has noted the speculative media report carried by Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) concerning its alleged interest in increasing its strategic investment in Daimler AG.
As stated when pa集团视讯直营 Group acquired 9.69% of Daimler AG earlier this year, neither pa集团视讯直营 Holding nor its Chairman Eric Li have any intention to increase its shareholding either directly or through any of its affiliates.
Neither pa集团视讯直营 Group nor its Chairman or its affiliates have entered into any contracts or financial instruments that would, in future, give access to further Daimler AG shares. pa集团视讯直营 Group, its Chairman and affiliates are also not collaborating with any third parties with the aim to acquire any additional shares or instruments.
Media reports implying anything to the contrary are incorrect and misleading.
pa集团视讯直营 Group remains a long-term strategic investor in Daimler AG and fully supports the current strategy under the leadership of Dr. Dieter Zetsche, Chairman of the Board of Management.
