Verpackungsunternehmen: Interimschef verlässt Gerresheimer – Aktie unter Druck

Nur ein Jahr nach seiner Rückkehr gibt Uwe Röhrhoff die Führung des Verpackungsherstellers wieder ab. Das sorgt für Unruhe an der Börse: Die Aktie gibt deutlich nach.

Verpackungsunternehmen: Interimschef verlässt Gerresheimer – Aktie unter Druck

Gerresheimer, a packaging company based in Düsseldorf, has seen its shares drop by around nine percent prior to trading on Tuesday as interim CEO Uwe Röhrhoff announced his departure from the company. Röhrhoff had taken over as interim CEO just over a year ago, following Dietmar Siemsen's dismissal due to regulatory scrutiny from the German financial watchdog, Bafin.

Bafin had criticized Gerresheimer for prematurely recognizing revenue in 2024, which had caused significant concern for the traditional corporation. Despite his interim tenure, Röhrhoff is credited with stabilizing the business, including the successful sale of the company's US subsidiary, Centor, and its business in plastic primary packaging. The company intends to publish its first-quarter 2026 balance sheet on August 27th.
