TeraPlast shares were promoted on Friday, March 13, from the Standard to the Premium category of the Main Market operated by the Bucharest Stock Exchange.
A company’s promotion to the Premium share category reflects the fulfillment of rigorous criteria regarding free-float market capitalization and share liquidity. TeraPlast has met these requirements—driven, among other factors, by the implementation of high standards of transparency and corporate governance—and is thus elevated to a superior tier.
The inclusion of shares in the Premium category of the BVB Main Market brings a series of advantages for TeraPlast as an issuer, primarily related to enhanced visibility among both retail and institutional investors.
TRP shares are included in the market’s main index, BET, which tracks the largest and most liquid companies listed on the BVB, as well as in the BET-BK, BET-TR, BET-TRN, BET-XT, BET-XT-TR, BET-XT-TRN, and BETPlus indices. Furthermore, TeraPlast shares are included in the FTSE Russell Emerging Markets and FTSE Global All Cap indices, thereby gaining significant visibility among international investors. Its shares are also part of the MSCI Frontier Markets indices.
TeraPlast benefits from Issuer Market Making services provided by Raiffeisen Bank International AG since 2024, and by BRK Financial Group since 2020.
TeraPlast is the second company to have its shares promoted from the Standard to the Premium Category of the Regulated Market; the first issuer to achieve this promotion was the global aluminum producer ALRO in 2018. Out of the 87 companies currently listed on the BVB Main Market, the shares of 33 companies are included in the Premium category.
“At the BVB, companies become more performant, gaining visibility and prestige. We are pleased to witness the rise of TeraPlast, which has become an undisputed industry leader and ranks among the top construction materials producers in Central and Eastern Europe. The inclusion of TRP shares in the Main Market’s Premium category is a natural step in the evolution of a company that has now reached a market capitalization of over RON 1.4 billion. Every issuer that moves to the Premium tier contributes to positioning Romania as a robust and trustworthy investment environment, reflecting the fact that the local capital market is maturing and becoming increasingly attractive to both Romanian and foreign investors,” stated Remus Vulpescu, CEO of BVB.
“The promotion to the Bucharest Stock Exchange’s Premium category confirms the operational performance, discipline, and vision with which we have built TeraPlast in recent years. This is a natural step in our capital market evolution and a validation of the strategy through which we have expanded the company beyond Romania’s borders—with operations in the Republic of Moldova, Hungary, Croatia, and Austria—and our development plans do not stop here.
There are few companies listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange that have succeeded in transforming themselves over time into Romanian-born multinationals, creating jobs in other countries and delivering competitive, locally manufactured products to European markets. This is the model we believe in and continue to develop.
The capital market remains a strategic partner for TeraPlast’s growth, and our objective is to continue generating value for our shareholders through investment, operational efficiency, and business expansion,” stated Dorel Goia, Chairman of the Board of Directors of TeraPlast.
