Establishment of American Depository Receipt program (ADR)
Carlsberg has today established a sponsored level 1 ADR-program in the United
States. The ADR-program will be a supplement to Carlsberg's listing on NASDAQ
OMX Copenhagen. The ADRs will be trading over-the-counter in the United States
market under the symbol "CABJY".
Carlsberg's Deputy CEO and CFO Jørn P. Jensen says "Carlsberg has for many years
had a sizeable shareholder base in the U.S. and we believe the establishment of
the ADR program will be a valuable service for our existing and potential new
U.S. shareholders".
Carlsberg has appointed BNY Mellon as the depositary bank for the program.
