NACKA STRAND, Sweden — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 9, 2011 — Regulatory News:
Hexagon: (STO: HEXAB)
The SIX Swiss Exchange has approved the application for delisting of Hexagon's registered series B shares from the SIX Swiss Exchange. The last trading day will be 9 February 2012 and the delisting will be effective as per 10 February 2012.
The delisting from the SIX Swiss Exchange does not affect the listing of the registered series B shares on NASDAQ OMX Stockholm. The registered series B shares will continue to be traded on the NASDAQ OMX Stockholm.
The primary reasons for the delisting are that the trading of the Hexagon share on the SIX Swiss Exchange has been almost non-existent in recent years and the additional costs and extra work involved being listed on two exchanges. While the listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange had a purpose in connection with and following the acquisition of Leica Geosystems in 2005, today it is of no relevance for the trading in the Hexagon share.
