Wintersteiger AG has made itself fit for the future with a new shareholder structure: The Sports, Woodtech, Seedmech and Operations divisions were spun off into four specially established subsidiaries. The share capital of the subsidiaries was increased, the parent company was renamed WINTERSTEIGER Holding AG and corporate governance was adapted to the new structure.
The restructuring not only emphasised the existing divisional structure of the conglomerate more clearly, but also set the course for further global growth. WINTERSTEIGER Holding AG will continue to look for synergies throughout the company.
Our law firm successfully accompanied the restructuring under the leadership of partners Dr. Michael Hule and Dr. Martin Frenzel, LL.M. (Chicago); in addition, partner Mag. Emanuel Boesch and attorney Mag. Isabella Petrova, LL.M. (both IP/IT) were part of the HBN team. The tax aspects were handled by the law firm FUSSEIS (Mag. Rudolf Rothböck, Franz Bader).
