Dieboldのアンディー・W・マッテス社長兼最高経営責任者（CEO）は「Wincor Nixdorf発行済み株式への買い付け提案が成功裏に終わり、まさに世界的サービス中心のソフトウエア主導企業という共有ビジョンが可能になったことを喜んでいる。この大きな前進を成し遂げて、この取引を完了し、適切な規制当局の承認を受けた後に二つの企業を統合できることに期待している。顧客からは経営統合がセルフサービス業界にユニークで高い価値をもたらすとして、とても好意的な反応が出ている。二つの組織の革新的ソリューションと人材を生かすことで、われわれは顧客の事業転換を手助けしつつ、欧州など主要市場で事業を伸ばす規模と実力、柔軟性が得られる」と述べた。

買い付け期間が終わった段階でWincor Nixdorfの2254万4692株が買い付けに応じた。さらに同期間の終了までに最低買い取り範囲に加算される26万2279株に相当する議決権委任状がDieboldに提出された。この株式と議決権委任状の株数はWincor Nixdorfの株主資本と議決権の約68.9%に相当する（Wincor Nixdorfが保有する自社株を含む）。

ドイツ有価証券取得・支配獲得法（WpUG）によると、株式買い付けに応じなかったWincor Nixdorfの株主は、中央欧州夏時間の2016年3月30日から2016年4月12日深夜の間に予定される追加買い取り期間中に株式買い付け提案を受け入れ、保有株式を売却することができる。Dieboldは追加買い取り期間の終了後に買い付け株式の最終的な数字を公表する。詳しい情報はhttp://www.diebold.com/DieboldWincor を参照。
