Change to the Executive Board at cyan AG: Martin Wachter to succeed CFO Michael Sieghart

Munich, September 14, 2021 – The Supervisory Board of cyan AG today appointed Martin Wachter as the company’s new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective December 1, 2021 until the end of 2023. The management contract with Michael Sieghart, cyan AG’s CFO of many years, will be amicably ended as of December 31, 2021.

Michael Sieghart, CFO of cyan AG: “Since joining cyan in early 2018, I have been privileged to play my part in building and growing the company. We took the company public, and acquired I-New, a significantly larger company. A number of equity and debt financings were carried out to secure the growth of the group in recent years. In addition, we introduced Group-wide IFRS reporting, thus significantly increasing transparency for shareholders. Now the company has entered a consolidation phase and it is time to hand over to my successor.”

With Martin Wachter, the Supervisory Board has been able to attract a proven financial specialist who, with his international management experience, will support the further development and repositioning of cyan AG.

Martin Wachter has over 35 years of financial experience with 25 of those years in management positions. He looks back on a long career in banking, most recently as a member of the management board of LGT Bank in Austria and as a member of the management board of Bank Alpinum.

Alexander Schütz, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of cyan AG: “We would like to thank Michael Sieghart for his commitment over the last four years and the work he has done to build up cyan. We are pleased to welcome Martin Wachter, such an internationally successful manager, on board with us.”
