International law firm McDermott Will & Emery advised Aumann AG, one of the world's leading manufacturers of innovative specialized machinery and automated production lines with a focus on electro-mobility, in connection with a capital increase from authorized capital.  A total of 1,250,000 new shares were issued at a price of EUR 64.00 in a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process.  The subscription rights of the existing shareholders were excluded. Gross proceeds of EUR 80 million were generated from the capital increase.  McDermott had previously advised Aumann AG and its majority shareholder MBB SE in Aumann´s successful IPO in March 2017.

The McDermott Team was led by Joseph W. Marx and Simon M. Weiss (both Capital Markets, Frankfurt) and Norman Wasse (Corporate, Frankfurt) and supported by Philipp von Ilberg (Capital Markets, Frankfurt), Michael Cziesla (Corporate, Frankfurt), Tom Young (Tax, Chicago) and Ted Laurenson (Capital Markets, Silicon Valley).
