mal IR angefragt, wann ggf. mal Updates zu jedwegen Dingen kommen und ob man mir etwas zum "White Knight" sagen kann:
Dear Mr Z.
Steinhoff cannot comment on market speculation.
Please refer to our release dated 8 November 2019 with regard to the litigation (relevant paragraph copied below). As previously stated, we will continue to update the market as and when there is new information to share.
Litigation and Remediation Plan Update
As reported at the Steinhoff AGM and at the Parlimentary Hearing in South Africa, Steinhoff
continues to manage the various litigation claims against the Group as well as assessing claims
available to Steinhoff against third parties. The Litigation Working Group, appointed as a sub-
committee of the Supervisory Board, is intimately involved in the conduct of litigation and the
litigation strategy generally. As shareholders are aware, Steinhoff faces multiple claims brought in
South Africa, the Netherlands and Germany by numerous parties, making the situation highly
complex.
Steinhoff is continuing to conduct its investigations and prepare its defences in the various
proceedings and will bring claims or counter claims against parties where it is appropriate to do so.
As part of its overall litigation strategy, Steinhoff will also consider early resolution of the claims
brought against it and the possibility of using the permitted settlement arrangements introduced
into the new terms of the Steinhoff finance documents and approved as part of the financial
restructuring implemented in August 2019. These arrangements may include, among other options,
an equity issuance by Steinhoff. Given the complexity of the Steinhoff litigation landscape there can
be no certainty that resolution of the disputes can be achieved prior to a final determination by the
relevant Courts but the Litigation Working Group continues to explore the possibility of finding an
acceptable solution to the current disputes.
