Release according to article 135 section 2 BörseG

What happened

OMV Aktiengesellschaft published a major-holdings notice naming BlackRock, Inc. The notice says BlackRock’s voting-rights position crossed a reporting threshold, listing 14,720,004 voting rights attached to OMV shares and a previous position, without a clearly readable current percentage.

Confirmed

Global impact / market context

The notice indicates BlackRock’s reported share-linked voting rights were lower than in its previous notification. A change in a large investor’s voting stake can alter its influence over shareholder decisions, but the filing does not explain why the position changed or signal a change in OMV’s operations.

Analyst inference

This is a regulatory disclosure about ownership and voting rights, not a report of OMV’s earnings, outlook, or capital spending. The figures describe BlackRock’s reported position on the threshold date; the notice alone does not establish whether shares were sold, other voting arrangements changed, or investors reacted.

Analyst inference

What to watch

1. Check later OMV notifications for updated voting-rights percentages and dates; subsequent filings can show whether BlackRock’s reported stake continues to change. Analyst inference
2. Review any fuller disclosure for the instruments or arrangements behind the reported voting rights, since the supplied excerpt does not explain them. Analyst inference
3. Watch for OMV announcements on business performance or shareholder decisions; the ownership notice itself does not describe effects on revenue, costs, or investment. Analyst inference
