Performance of the Tecan share in 2020
The year 2020 was also exceptional for the stock markets in many respects. Despite the Corona pandemic and an economic slump, many stock markets were able to make gains over the last twelve months. The SMI, which covers Swiss blue-chip stocks, advanced only by about 0.8% for the year. The SPI Extra, which comprises the small and mid-cap companies listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange, closed 8.1% higher.
At CHF 433.80, shares of Tecan finished the year at the highest closing price at year end (taking into consideration stock splits). Tecan’s shares value increased by 59.5% in the year under review, markedly outperforming the relevant indices. Tecan's market capitalization thus amounted to CHF 5.2 billion at the end of the year.
Due to the positive development of market capitalization as well as the increase in average trading volumes, the SIX Swiss Exchange included Tecan in its SMI Midcap Index (SMIM) effective October 15. The SMIM (SMI Mid) comprises the 30 largest midcap stocks on the Swiss stock market that are not included in the blue-chip SMI index (the SMI comprises the 20 largest stocks). As of year-end 2020, among all companies listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange Tecan has moved up to position 42 in the index ranking (2019: 58th place).
