The Miba Share
The Miba share was not able to escape the uncertainty of investors at the outset
of the worldwide financial and economic crisis beginning in September 2008, and the
share price initially fell. In the 2009-2010 business year, market prices recovered slightly
and the Miba share price fluctuated between EUR 69 and 91, reaching the yearly high in
mid-October 2009. Beginning in fall 2009, the share stabilized and displayed a horizontal
movement with a slight downward tendency. The share closed at EUR 81 at the end of
the financial year.
In 2009-2010 Miba stock significantly outperformed the WBI (Wiener Börse Index)
through May, falling below the WBI performance after May.
With a price-earnings ratio of 8.13 (as of January 29, 2010), Miba stock continues to be
attractively rated. Earnings per share for 2009-2010 totaled EUR 9.93 per share, a 40 percent
decrease from the previous year.
Share buyback plan
On June 19, 2009, the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting authorized the company to purchase
company shares totaling up to 10 percent of share capital through December 31, 2011, in
accordance with section 65 (1) 8 of Austria's Stock Corporation Act. On July 14, 2009, the
Management Board adopted a share buyback program. The buyback price ranges between
EUR 50 and 200. The intended repurchase volume corresponds to
approximately 2.3 percent of the share capital.
