Klöckner (ISIN DE000KC01000) stock was trading at EUR 12.86 at Lang & Schwarz on October 20, 2026, at 1:19 p.m. CEST. Klöckner had announced on October 8, 2026, that it signed an agreement to sell Becker Group to Accura Investment Partners and Becker Consult + Beteiligungs-GmbH.

Three steps changed control

On July 15, 2026, Worthington Steel launched a delisting tender offer at EUR 11.00 per Klöckner share. On August 12, 2026, the acceptance period ended and Worthington Steel's ownership reached 62.11 percent, according to its StockTitan reproduction of the October 6 filing.

The October 8 sale of Becker Group is the latest portfolio step. Klöckner said the transaction supports a stronger concentration on higher-value products and services, while closing is expected before the end of 2026.

What does the vote mean for control?

Worthington Steel and Klöckner signed a domination and profit and loss transfer agreement on September 8, 2026. The agreement requires approval from at least 75 percent of the share capital represented at the October 23, 2026 extraordinary meeting and cannot take effect before January 1, 2027, according to StockTitan.

The comparison between the EUR 11.00 tender price and the EUR 12.86 Lang & Schwarz quote is EUR 1.86. That gap leaves the control process, rather than the Becker sale price, as the next clearly dated corporate test.

Dates set the next milestones

The extraordinary shareholder meeting is scheduled for October 23, 2026. The earliest stated effectiveness date for the control agreement is January 1, 2027, subject to approval and registration.
