Vienna - Today, the Managing Board of Wienerberger AG (FN 77676f; the "Company")
has decided to evaluate the sale of up to 2,500,000 treasury shares (ISIN
AT0000831706), i.e. up to 2.2% of the Company's share capital, to institutional
investors by means of an accelerated private placement (accelerated
bookbuilding) and by excluding acquisition (subscription) rights of existing
shareholders.

report on the exclusion of acquisition (subscription) rights in connection with
a possible sale of treasury shares on its official website registered in the

Sales proceeds resulting from a potential transaction could be used, amongst
others, to take advantage of growth opportunities in water and energy management
within Wienerberger Piping Solutions and for general corporate purposes.
