In February, at the request of shareholders, 550,000 Class A shares were converted to Class B shares. The total number of votes in the company thereafter amounts to 1,569,473,964.

The total number of registered shares in the company amounts to 705,110,094, of which 96,040,430 are Class A shares and 609,069,664 are Class B shares.
