Trading in the shares of Ferrovial SE, the group’s new parent company resulting from the cross-border merger between Ferrovial, S.A. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Ferrovial International SE, has commenced simultaneously in Spain on the Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao, and Valencia Stock Exchanges and in the Netherlands on Euronext Amsterdam as from 09:00 CET today.

Specifically, Ferrovial SE’s shares are traded under the FER ticker (with international securities identification number, or ISIN, NL0015001FS8) on the Spanish Stock Exchanges and on Euronext Amsterdam. The initial listing price is 28.92 euro, which equals to the closing market price on the last trading day of the shares of Ferrovial, S.A., yesterday. The shares are expected to be included in the IBEX 35, the Spanish stock market’s benchmark index, which Ferrovial S.A. first joined in July 1999. Because of its market capitalization, it would occupy the 11th position within IBEX 35.

The simultaneous listing in Spain and the Netherlands follows the completion of the merger, which became effective today, Friday, June 16 at 00:00 CEST, following the execution of the Dutch deed of merger instrument yesterday.

This dual listing on two stock markets is a major milestone in Ferrovial group’s internationalization process, as part of the internationalization strategy proposed by the Board of Directors of Ferrovial S.A. in late February with the goal of strengthening the group’s international profile and aligning its corporate structure with its future growth, which will be pronouncedly international. The corporate reorganization was submitted to Ferrovial S.A.’s shareholders at its Shareholders’ Meeting on April 13 and was supported by a resounding majority of 93.3% of the votes. Moreover, none of the group’s shareholders exercised their right to withdraw under the terms of the Merger.

In this way, Ferrovial has fulfilled the mandate from its shareholders and is now ready to pursue the next milestone in its internationalization process: its planned listing in the United States, where it has been operating for two decades and where it believes the group has a strong growth potential in the coming years.
