MTG deregisters shares with SEC

Modern Times Group (MTG) has completed the deregistration of its Class B shares with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

MTG filed a certification under Form 15-F with the SEC on June 20 to terminate the registration of its Class B shares and its reporting obligations under Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. MTG’s reporting obligations with the SEC were suspended with effect from the filing.

MTG’s class A and B shares are registered in Sweden, and listed and traded on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm’s Large Cap index. MTG’s securities are not listed on any US stock exchange, and the deregistration with the SEC does not affect the registration or listing of the Group’s shares in Sweden or MTG shareholders’ rights.
