history

In December 2005, sold DaimlerChrysler , the MTU Friedrichshafen for 1.6 billion euros to the Swedish private equity group EQT .

EQT then formed Tognum GmbH as a holding company in July 2006 with MTU as the core company. The holding originally held the shares in the companies MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH , MDE Dezentrale Energiesysteme GmbH , CFC Solutions GmbH , L'Orange GmbH and Rotorion. Katolight was acquired in April 2007. On January 1, 2008, SKL Motor GmbH was finally taken over by Tognum. At the beginning of November the holding company announced the completion of the sale of the propeller shaft division Rotorion to IFA . Tognum will retain a 25 percent stake in IFA-Rotorion Holding GmbH for another five years and then withdraw completely from the automotive supply business.

In July 2007, Tognum was listed on the stock exchange after it had been converted into an AG . EQT was still the largest single shareholder with a stake of approx. 35%, until the end of April 2008 Daimler AG took over 22.3% of the shares from EQT for 585 million euros and was Tognum's most important single shareholder with 28.4% until mid-2011 .

On March 7, 2011, Daimler announced that it would take over Tognum together with Rolls-Royce. After increasing the offer price by EUR 2 from EUR 24 to EUR 26, the management of Tognum AG recommended on May 18, 2011 that the offer be accepted. The members of the management achieved high proceeds from the sale of their own blocks of shares, some in the eight-figure range. The then CEO Volker Heuer received EUR 78.96 million, the current CEO Coers EUR 59.46 million (see Directors' Dealings with Tognum shares or derivatives).

Mid-2011, the majority of the shares in Tognum for 3.4 billion euros by Engine Holding GmbH (Stuttgart), a joint venture of Daimler AG and the Vinters International Limited , an indirect subsidiary of Rolls-Royce Group , one under acquired by a friendly takeover . This was preceded by an offer from Engine Holding that was changed several times.

In July 2011, Deutsche Börse announced that Tognum shares would be removed from the MDAX, as less than 10% of the shares are now in free trading and the papers have been disqualified for all Deutsche Börse selection indices. Shortly before, it was announced that Engine Holding holds 94% of Tognum shares. Trading on the regulated market (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange ceased on August 27, 2011.

As of December 31, 2012, Engine Holding held around 99% of Tognum shares. The remaining minority interests were transferred in March 2013. The former Tognum AG has been operating under the new name Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG since January 2013 . On August 26, 2014, the Rolls-Royce Group took over all of the Daimler shares.
