Change in lead­er­ship at ORIOR

Ad hoc an­nounce­ment pur­suant to Art. 53 LR

Zurich, 7 No­vem­ber 2024

The Board of Di­rec­tors of ORIOR AG, to­gether with Daniel Lutz, has reached an agree­ment that the com­pa­ny’s lead­er­ship should be placed in new hands. Daniel Lutz has been ORI­OR’s CEO for nearly 10 years. The Board of Di­rec­tors wishes to thank Daniel Lutz for his many years of ser­vice and strong com­mit­ment to the com­pany. Par­tic­u­larly note­wor­thy are the suc­cess­ful in­ter­na­tion­al­iza­tion of the ORIOR Group and han­dling of the ex­tra­or­di­nary sit­u­a­tion dur­ing the COVID cri­sis.

The re­cruit­ment process for a new CEO will be launched.

Filip De Spiegeleire will im­me­di­ately as­sume the post of CEO on an in­terim ba­sis. He has been a mem­ber of ORI­OR’s Group Ex­ec­u­tive Board since 2016 and leads the Eu­ro­pean busi­ness. At the same time, Sacha D. Ger­ber will as­sume the role of CFO early, ef­fec­tive 11 No­vem­ber 2024. The in­cum­bent CFO An­dreas Lind­ner will as­sist the fi­nan­cial team un­til the end of Jan­u­ary 2025, as planned. More­over, Rolf U. Sut­ter has kindly ex­pressed his will­ing­ness to stand by the Board of Di­rec­tors and the in­terim CEO Filip De Spiegeleire with ad­vice and sup­port in the com­ing months.

Due to the changes, ORIOR has de­cided to post­pone the in­vestor day planned for early De­cem­ber un­til a later day.
