Who Are The Major Shareholders In Hasen-Immobilien AG (BST:ABHA)?

Today, I will be analyzing Hasen-Immobilien AG’s (BST:ABHA) recent ownership structure, an important but not-so-popular subject among individual investors. Ownership structure has been found to have an impact on shareholder returns in both short- and long-term. The effect of an active institutional investor with a similar ownership as a passive pension-fund can be vastly different on a company's corporate governance and accountability to shareholders. While this may be more interesting for long-term investors, short-term investors can also benefit by paying attention to when these institutions trade in order to take advantage of the heightened volatility. Therefore, I will take a look at ABHA's shareholders in more detail.

General Public Ownership

The general public, with 7.70% stake, is also an important group of shareholders in ABHA. This size of ownership, while considerably large for a public company, may not be enough to change company policy if the decision is not in sync with other large shareholders.

Private Company Ownership

Potential investors in ABHA should also look at another important group of investors: private companies, with a stake of 92.30%, who are primarily invested because of strategic and capital gain interests. This kind of ownership, if predominantly strategic, can give these companies a significant power to affect ABHA's business strategy. Thus, potential investors should look into these business relations and check how it can impact long-term shareholder returns.

Next Steps:

A large shareholding of ABHA by the general public could mean higher market liquidity to buy and sell shares for retail investors, and also the potential to have more influence over company policies as a collective. However, ownership structure should not be the only determining factor when you’re building an investment thesis for ABHA.
