With approval of the Supervisory Board of the company, the Management Board of FAST Casualwear AG has resolved on carrying out a second capital increase in the current financial year.

The capital increase will be carried out against cash contribution using the authorized capital to issue 600,000 new shares at a par value of one Euro and at a price of EUR 1.60 per share.

Once this capital increase as well as the capital increase of February 2014 have been registered in the trade register, the share capital will increase to EUR 13,300,000.00.
