SMT Scharf AG successfully holds further virtual AGM 
  . Large majorities discharge Managing and Supervisory boards for FY 2020 
  . Presence of represented share capital of 53.7% 
Hamm, May 27, 2021 - SMT Scharf AG (WKN 575198, ISIN DE0005751986), one of the world's leading suppliers of customised 
transport solutions and logistics systems for underground mining, has today, Thursday, successfully conducted its 
virtual 2021 Ordinary Annual General Meeting. This AGM was held as a virtual AGM on the basis of the act passed by the 
legislator to mitigate the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic (Act on Measures in Corporate, Co-operative, 
Association, Foundation and Home Ownership Law to Combat the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic [C19-AuswBekG]). The 
presence of the represented share capital amounted to 53.7%. All items on the agenda were adopted with large 
majorities. 
As part of the AGM, the Managing Board reported on the operative and strategic development of SMT Scharf AG in the 2020 
fiscal year, which was mainly characterised by the coronavirus pandemic and strategic measures. The restructuring of 
the Canadian subsidiary RDH creates a basis for future growth and the planned expansion of the mineral mining business. 
The entirety of the streamlined product range will be marketed under the SMT Scharf brand in the future. SMT Scharf 
also entered into a partnership with Polymetal International Plc last year, whose aim is to develop, implement and 
optimise zero-emission electric vehicles, with a first order worth EUR 4 million having already been confirmed. The 
China III approval expected in Q3 2021 is expected to deliver further positive growth momentum in the future. Overall, 
the Managing Board continues to pursue the strategy of an expanded range of services in the underground logistics area. 
Based on the good start to business in Q1 2021, the Managing Board has issued a positive outlook for the current fiscal 
year. This is mainly driven by the order book position, which stands at a record high ahead of the pending China III 
approval. Demand for coal and higher levels of coal consumption offer attractive growth opportunities for the future. 
The early transition to Chinese mining companies' new emission standards and the expected China III approval in the 
third quarter also contribute to the positive forecasts. 
Rödl & Partner GmbH Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft Steuerberatungsgesellschaft, Cologne branch, was appointed as the 
auditor for the 2021 fiscal year. 
The detailed voting results on the respective agenda items will be available soon for download from the website at
