Apart from the shares held by the Federal Republic of Germany and KfW, the shareholder structure of Deutsche Telekom AG changed compared with the prior year. The proportion of institutional investors was 56.1 percent of the total share capital as of December 31, 2009, while the share of retail investors amounted to 12.2 percent. Free float continued to account for 68.3 percent of the total share capital. The Federal Republic’s shareholding including that of KfW (formerly Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau) is therefore still 31.7 percent. Investor relations. In the 2009 financial year, Deutsche Telekom continued its intensive dialog with institutional investors, retail investors, and financial analysts. In individual and group discussions during its roadshows in Europe, Asia, and North America, top management personally presented the Group strategy and the Company’s financial position along with annual and quarterly results. Direct communication with the capital markets was maintained on several occasions including an analysts’ conference in Bonn and international investors’ conferences held at various locations including Frankfurt/Main, Barcelona, London, Paris, and New York. Comprehensive online services were again available to Deutsche Telekom’s shareholders in the 2009 financial year. Shareholders can continue using the Internet dialog to register to receive shareholders’ meeting documents by e-mail. In addition, the Internet dialog also facilitates the ongoing expan- sion of electronic communication with shareholders. The personal profiles they have set up allow shareholders to order tickets for the shareholders’ meeting, and shareholders not attending in person can issue proxy authori- zations and voting instructions while the shareholders’ meeting is in prog- ress, until shortly before votes are cast. In addition, the “direkt” newsletter (available in German only) reports on the most recent quarterly results and the annual financial statements of the Group. It also covers significant developments and events as well as the Group strategy, and contains special offers for shareholders. The newsletter is available for download from the Investor Relations website. Shareholders can also receive the free newsletter in printed form or by e-mail.
