UNIQA shares


The UNIQA shares are on an upward trend following the successful re-IPO, in which we strengthened our equity considerably and created strategic flexibility for further growth with issue proceeds of € 757 million.

The price of the UNIQA shares on the prime market of the Vienna Stock Exchange fell by 5.9 per cent to € 9.28 in 2013. In the same period, Vienna’s leading index ATX gained 6.1 per cent, while the benchmark Euro Stoxx Insurance index rose by 33.2 per cent. In October 2013, the UNIQA Group implemented a capital increase (re-IPO) as part of its UNIQA 2.0 strategic programme, generating gross proceeds of € 757 million. We placed a total of 94,752,100 new shares with Austrian and international investors at a price of € 8.00 per share. The re-IPO increased the share capital of UNIQA Insurance Group AG to € 309,000,000 and led to a significant increase in UNIQA’s free float to 35.4 per cent. The corresponding sharp rise in the shares’ liquidity led to their inclusion in the leading index in Vienna, the ATX, in March 2014. With the issue proceeds of € 757 million, we have strengthened our equity considerably while creating strategic flexibility for future growth. The price of the UNIQA share rose steadily following the re-IPO, climbing by around 11.8 per cent to € 9.50 as of the end of February 2014 and outperforming the EURO STOXX Insurance Index in the same period.
