A Statement from Wincor Nixdorf

The German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung reported today, June 10, that Diebold talks with Wincor Nixdorf about acquiring the company. The newspaper cited sources with knowledge of the negotiations. The report, meanwhile, has been picked up by numerous other media.

We have initiated the restructuring program with the clear goal to preserve Wincor Nixdorf’s autonomy. According to the management team, keeping Wincor Nixdorf independent is the best action to create customer, shareholder, and employee value.

We are not in merger or acquisition negotiations.
