On June 25, 2025, audius SE held its annual general meeting in person at the Waiblingen Civic Center.

The chair of the meeting and the members of the Management Board reported on the positive development of audius and the next steps expected to be taken to achieve the target of total operating performance of more than €115 million in the coming year. The latest acquisition of Ergonomics AG and future ideas for acquisitions were also discussed.

In addition to regular resolutions, the agenda for this year included the statutory election of new members. The shareholders approved the appointment of Mr. Jürgen Tschiesche, a certified public accountant from Weinstadt, as a new member of the Supervisory Board of audius SE alongside Dr. Ottmar Gast and Robert Käß. He will take over the seat of Mr. Franz Honner, who is stepping down for personal reasons. In the Supervisory Board meeting immediately following the Annual General Meeting, Dr. Ottmar Gast was re-elected as Chairman of the Supervisory Board and Robert Käß as his deputy.
The Supervisory Board thus began its four-year term of office yesterday in this new constellation.

Supervisory Board Chairman Dr. Ottmar Gast and CEO Rainer Francisi on the departure of Franz Honner: “We would like to thank Franz Honner for his many years of dedicated service to the company, both in management and most recently as a member of the Supervisory Board. We are delighted that he will remain with us as a shareholder and wish him all the best for the future.”
