The Board of Management of Covestro AG has today decided, in view of the interest in Covestro expressed by Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, to enter into open-ended discussions with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company. Whether, in which form and, if applicable, at which conditions an agreement between the parties will be reached is open and will depend on the course of the forthcoming discussions. During the discussions, Covestro’s Board of Management will in particular also address the safeguarding of the further implementation of its future- and sustainability-oriented strategy, including corresponding corporate governance provisions. Any agreement would, in addition to mutual consent on the commercial and legal transaction parameters, require the approval of the respective boards of the parties and the approval of the competent authorities.
