DGAP-News: Weng Fine Art AG / Key word(s): Miscellaneous Weng Fine Art AG Extends its Stock Buyback Program - Sales in the 2nd Half rose above Expectations 31.01.2014 / 07:45 --------------------------------------------------------------------- PRESS RELEASE | 31 JANUARY 2014 Weng Fine Art AG Extends its Stock Buyback Program - Sales in the 2nd Half rose above Expectations The CEO and the board of Weng Fine Art AG (WFA) have decided, pursuant to § 71 Abs. 1 No. 8 AktG, to extend its stock buyback program up to January 31, 2015. It was set to expire on January 31, 2014. Under this program, WFA is allowed to purchase up to 100,000 shares, the equivalent of 3.64 % of its share capital. So far, the company has acquired 45,000 shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The buyback program was authorized in the General Meeting of September 9, 2013. The shares will be purchased exclusively through the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Xetra system, where WFA will neither pay more than 10%, nor less than 20% of the 10-day average closing price recorded on the Xetra trading system. The shares should be purchased at a price between EUR11 - 14. Today marks the end of Weng Fine Art's fiscal year 2013/2014, during which the company generated revenues of about EUR8.4 million (EUR7.68 million in previous year). Thus, the expectations for this 'year of transformation' were clearly exceeded. The sales in the 2nd half of the year were far beyond expectations, as they increased by more than 50% (from EUR2.9 million to EUR4.4 million).
