Stock Exchange Trading
In 2009 104.2 million Imtech shares were traded (2008: 118.2 million), which means that for the second year running the number of shares traded exceeded the number of shares issued. In the light of the sharp decline in interest in shares exhibited by investors, this indicates that the Imtech share is seen as an attractive investment. With the exception of December 2009 the average daily trading volume was higher than in the same month in the previous fi ve years. A December trading volume that was clearly lower than in previous years was a global phenomenon and the result of investors closing their books earlier than normal in order to safeguard the achieved return for 2009.
