FACC AG announces that the mandate of Ms. Minfen Gu as chief financial officer
of FACC AG terminates with immediate effect. The Supervisory Board initiated the
search for a successor. To the current state of the forensic and criminal
investigations, the criminal activities which targeted the financial accounting
department were fraudulent actions involving the use of a fake identity
(so-called fake president fraud). FACC's IT infrastructure, data security, IP
rights as well as the operational business of the group are not affected by the
criminal activities. No evidence of malware has been identified. The management
board is fundamentally reorganizing the financial department and pursuing
damages and insurance claims. To assist the management board in the
reorganization of the finance department, the supervisory board appointed its
member, Mr. Yongsheng Wang, on an interim basis to the management board.
