Steyr Motors proposes two experienced industry and capital market experts
to the Annual General Meeting for new appointments to the Supervisory
Board
Steyr, Austria, 10 March 2026 – Steyr Motors AG ([1]ISIN AT0000A3FW25),
one of the world’s leading companies in the field of customized engines
for mission-critical defense and civil applications, is planning to
appoint new members to its Supervisory Board and is proposing Rolf Wirtz
and Gerhard Schwartz, two experienced industry and capital market experts,
as new members of the Supervisory Board at the Annual General Meeting on
10 April 2026.
After the former major shareholder, Mutares SE & Co. KGaA, sold its entire
stake in Steyr Motors AG in November 2025, the previous Supervisory Board
members and representatives of Mutares SE & Co. KGaA, Dr. Christian
Klingler and Fabian Schlegel, are no longer available for re-election.
Their term of office on the Supervisory Board will end at the close of the
Annual General Meeting on 10 April 2026.
In the invitation to the Annual General Meeting published today, the
Company is therefore proposing two new members for election to the
Supervisory Board, both of whom have extensive industry and capital market
expertise.
Rolf Wirtz is a top manager with many years of experience in the defense
sector, most recently serving as CEO of TKMS until 2022. In addition to
his in-depth expertise in the defense industry, which is essential for
Steyr Motors, he also has extensive management experience in an
international industrial context and, as the designated Chairman of the
Supervisory Board, will support the Management Board in the further
expansion of the business in the military and civil sectors.
Gerhard Schwartz is well known on the Austrian capital market as a
financial expert and can look back on a long career as an auditor/tax
advisor, most recently as managing partner at EY. As the designated head
of the audit committee, he will support Steyr Motors in the further
expansion of key financial and control functions in order to successfully
position the organisation for further growth.
In addition, the company proposes the re-election of Alexander Fitzka,
Investment Manager of the B&C Group, who has been a member of the
Supervisory Board since August 2025.
Julian Cassutti, CEO of Steyr Motors: „I am delighted to continue to have
a highly qualified and experienced Supervisory Board at my side with the
newly proposed Supervisory Board members, who will provide the company
with the best possible support and supervision as it takes its next steps
towards growth. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the outgoing
Supervisory Board members for their open and trusting cooperation for the
benefit of the company.“
The Annual General Meeting of Steyr Motors AG will take place on 10 April
2026 at 10 a.m. in Steyr. The relevant documents are available from today
on the Steyr Motors AG website in the Investor Relations section at
