Information on the Equal Representation of Men and Women as per Section 76 para. 4 and Section 111 para. 5 AktG

The Supervisory Board of AIXTRON SE has set the following target figures for the proportion of women to be reached by December 31, 2025:
 

Since initially setting the target figures, the Supervisory Board of AIXTRON SE was first reduced from six to five members. On May 25, 2022, the Annual General Meeting elected Dr. Stefan Traeger as a new member of the Supervisory Board. As a result, the Supervisory Board consists of six members again. It continues to include two women, bringing the proportion of female Supervisory Board members to around 33% as of December 31, 2022. The current composition of the Executive Board is in line with the target set for the Executive Board.

The Executive Board of AIXTRON SE has set itself the objective of specifically promoting women in the Company. In line with this objective, the Executive Board has now raised the targets for the proportion of women to 10% for the first level below the Executive Board and to 20% for the second level below the Executive Board. These targets are to be achieved by December 31, 2025.

Based on the current composition of the Executive Board, no changes in the composition are initially planned until the end of 2025, so that the target for the proportion of women on the Executive Board valid until December 31, 2025 has been set at 0%. The proportion of women at all management levels will be prioritized as part of long-term succession planning. To this end, the Executive Board has rolled out various personnel development initiatives that promote the advancement of young female talent at AIXTRON. These include, for example, coaching and mentoring programs for selected female managers. In addition, there were regular women’s network meetings in 2022, which enabled participants to share their views on strategic corporate management topics. In order to ensure equal participation of women in management positions, the Supervisory Board and Executive Board of AIXTRON SE are focusing even more on women when evaluating job candidates.
