Information on Q3 2011
Rella Holding A/S’ Business
Rella Holding A/S’ business is to hold B-shares in the media Group Aller Holding A/S.
As Aller Holding A/S only publishes financial information once a year through the Annual Report at the end of January, Rella Holding A/S does not publish quarterly reports, as such reports would only have very limited information value.
During Q3 2010, Rella Holding A/S did not purchase additional B-shares in Aller Holding A/S. The holding is therefore unchanged: nominal value DKK 9,327,000 or 57.5% of Aller Holding A/S’ outstanding shares when adjusted for Aller Holding A/S’ treasury shares as at 30 September 2010. It should be noted that the B-shares are non-voting.
