In turbulent economic periods in particular, a stable circle of stockholders represents a corporate asset that should not be underestimated and a firm foundation on which to develop a growth-based corporate strategy. Frequent changes in ownership, on the other hand, make it difficult for business activities develop consistently in the long term. Porsche Automobil Holding SE attaches great value to this stability. The ordinary shareholders' meeting of Porsche SE on January 25, 2008, approved a stock split at a ratio of 1:10 as well as a capital increase from its own funds. Therefore the share capital of the company accounts for 175,000,000 Euro and is divided into 87,500,000 ordinary shares and 87,500,000 listed non-voting preference shares.

The common stock is held by members of the Porsche and Piëch families. More than half of the preference shares are held by institutional investors such as investment funds, banks and insurance companies. These are mainly based in Great Britain, the USA and Germany, but to a lesser extent also in other European countries and Asia. Slightly less than half of the Porsche preference stock is widely distributed among private investors, primarily in Germany. Holders of Porsche Automobil Holding SE's common stock also hold preference stock.
