Reduction of share capital

At DSV's Annual General Meeting on 14 March 2014 a resolution was passed, following a proposal by the Board of Directors, to reduce the share capital by a nominal amount of DKK 3,000,000 through the cancellation of 3,000,000 treasury shares, corresponding to 3,000,000 voting rights.

The announcement of the resolution was published through the information system of the Danish Business Authority on 14 March 2014.

At the expiry of the four-week time limit on 12 April 2014, no claims had been filed requiring satisfaction or provision of security, and the reduction and registration of the share capital has been completed.

Consequently, the share capital of DSV has a nominal value of DKK 177,000,000, divided into 177,000,000 shares with a face value of DKK 1, corresponding to 177,000,000 voting rights.
