ThyssenKrupp stock

The positive performance of ThyssenKrupp's stock since the middle of fiscal 2008/2009 continued in the 1st quarter 2009/2010.

Increased analyst coverage

Although the crisis on the financial market initially resulted in a further wave of consolidations in the banking sector, the number of analysts covering ThyssenKrupp's stock increased further in the 1st quarter: 34 banks and brokers currently publish regular analyses. This is an increase of 30% compared with 2007/2008 and reflects the steadily growing interest in our Company. Our aim is to raise awareness of ThyssenKrupp in particular on the international financial markets. The further improved transparency of the Group, with eight business areas reporting to the capital market, will be of benefit in this.
