Stabilus S.A. resolves capital increase

Luxembourg/Koblenz, July 5, 2016 - Today, the Management Board of Stabilus
S.A. (Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Prime Standard, ISIN LU1066226637, WKN
A113Q5), with the approval of the Supervisory Board, resolved to utilize
some of its existing authorized capital to increase the share capital
against cash contributions under exclusion of shareholders' subscription
rights. The Company's nominal share capital will increase from EUR
207,232.56 by EUR 39,767.44 to EUR 247,000.00 via issuance of 3,976,744 new
bearer shares. The issuance represents approx. 19.2% of the current share
capital of the Company.

The new shares to be issued will be admitted to trading on the Regulated
Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with a simultaneous listing in the
Prime Standard segment of the Regulated Market, where additional disclosure
requirements apply. The listing of shares will be effected based on the
securities prospectus to be published which has been approved by the
Luxembourg financial supervisory authority Commission de Surveillance du
Secteur Financier (CSSF).

The new shares will carry full dividend rights for the business year
started as of October 1 2015, and will be offered to institutional
investors in a private placement by way of an accelerated bookbuilding. The
placement price will be determined in the course of the accelerated
bookbuilding.

Net proceeds from the capital increase will primarily be used for the
partial financing of the acquisition of SKF entities ACE, Hahn Gasfedern
and Fabreeka/Tech Products. Moreover, the capital increase will further
strengthen the financial flexibility enabling further growth of the
Stabilus Group.
