Material Changes and Voting Results
Shareholder approval was overwhelmingly positive across all agenda items, with most receiving over 99% support. Notable voting outcomes include:

Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
The filing does not provide specific management commentary on future business outlook, operational risks, or contingencies beyond the standard approval of the 2025 Sustainability Report and the re-election of auditors (KPMG AG as statutory auditor; BDO AG as special auditor). The capital reduction and amendment to the Articles of Association provide the Board with flexibility to manage share capital in the future.
