1&1 AG Challenges Removal from STOXX Indices

On July 10, 2025, 1&1 AG addressed its recent removal from the SDAX, HDAX, and TecDAX indices, effective July 11, 2025. STOXX Ltd. cited a "takeover" as per Section 8.3.2 of the DAX Equity Index Calculation Guide, prompting this decision.

1&1 AG disputes this rationale, stating no takeover is occurring. United Internet AG's June 5, 2025 offer was a voluntary partial acquisition, not a full takeover. Post-offer, United Internet AG will control 85.10% of 1&1 AG's share capital and 85.32% of voting rights. Despite this, 1&1 maintains a free float of nearly 15%.

The company expresses confusion over the index provider's decision and seeks to clarify media inaccuracies concerning the matter. 1&1 AG remains committed to its market presence and operational goals.
