Volkswagen Group SA plans to buy out minority shareholders in Audi and make the brand the leader of its research-and-development efforts, the company said on Friday.
The world's largest car manufacturer said it already holds 99.64% of the registered share capital of the premium Audi brand, and plans to increase its holding to 100% following Audi's annual general meeting.
"In the context of reorganizing competencies and responsibilities, Volkswagen AG plans to carry out a squeeze-out according to German stock corporation law in order to acquire the 0.36 percent of Audi's shares," Volkswagen and Audi said in a news release on Friday.
Audi's new chief executive Markus Duesmann will take up the post on April 1. Under his guidance, Audi will become the focus for Volkswagen's research-and-development strategy, Volkswagen said.
Audi will continue to be an independent stock corporation following the squeeze-out, the company said. Audi's AGM, which was originally planned for May 14, will now be postponed until July or August this year.
