FAQ

Amrize Shares trade in USD on the NYSE and in CHF on the SIX. Investors are free to choose to trade their Amrize Shares at either stock exchange in the respective currency, subject to the arrangements with their bank or broker.

Amrize shares currently trade on the NYSE and the SIX under the ticker symbol AMRZ. Shares can be purchased through your bank or broker.

If you sold your Holcim Shares prior to the Cum-Dividend Date, close of business, you were not eligible to receive Amrize Shares.

Holcim shareholders registered in the Holcim share register will not automatically be registered in Amrize’s share register. Given Amrize's U.S. listing, entitlements to Amrize Shares are generally held through DTC, with Amrize Shares recorded in the name of Cede & Co. in the share register. In accordance with customary U.S. practice, holders of Amrize Shares held with a custodian bank or broker through DTC (including indirectly via SIX SIS, as the case may be) are expected to be able to exercise voting rights through the U.S. proxy voting system. To make use of the U.S. proxy voting system, such holders do not need to be registered in the Amrize share register but should contact their bank or broker to receive the necessary proxies for exercising their voting rights, as it is customary for U.S. listed shares.

Nevertheless, shareholders may also be registered directly through Amrize’s share register, administered by Computershare U.S. as transfer agent. Given Amrize's U.S. listing and the availability of the U.S. proxy voting system to exercise voting rights, the Amrize Shares held through SIX SIS (and ultimately through DTC) are not eligible for the registered share system of SIX SIS, and therefore are not expected to be automatically registered in the Amrize share register. Rather, registration of Amrize Shares in the Amrize share register will need to be obtained by your bank or broker through DTC’s direct registration system, as it is customary for U.S. listed shares. Please contact your bank or broker if you wish to register your Amrize Shares following the Spin-off.

As part of the Spin-off, Amrize received “foreign” capital contribution reserves. Amrize will be able use the “foreign” capital contribution reserves to pay dividends without being subject to Swiss withholding tax (otherwise at a rate of 35%) and, for Swiss individuals holding Amrize Shares as private assets, without triggering Swiss income tax, unless they are consumed as a consequence of share buybacks by Amrize.

The Holcim ADRs are unsponsored and any holders of Holcim ADRs should consult their provider regarding the spin-off transaction.
