Shareholders
3
Three shareholders are currently on record for Vater Holding GmbH, held on the Gesellschafterliste (shareholder list), filed under §40 of the GmbHG.
The largest of these is Klaus-Hinrich Vater, holding 75% — a majority holding — followed by Lucht Beteiligungs GmbH at 15%; the remaining 1 shareholder shown holds smaller stakes.
1 shareholder shown is a company, so the ownership chain continues above this level for that holding; the other 2 are recorded as direct individual holders, though the record carries no UBO/PSC flag confirming beneficial-owner status.

Officers
5
Three of the 5 officer records shown for Vater Holding GmbH are current appointments, filed with Handelsregister (Commercial Register). Klaus-Hinrich Vater (appointed 2004-07-27) and Sascha Lucht (appointed 2017-02-08) both serve as Geschäftsführer (managing director); Tobias Krause (appointed 2021-03-01) serves as Officer. The remaining 2 records shown (Uwe Friedrichs and Christian Winther) are former appointments that have since been resigned.
The register reports 10 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.
Management authority at Vater Holding GmbH sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.
The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.
Group Structure
Vater Holding GmbH has no recorded parent company — it sits at the top of its own group structure, with 6 subsidiaries recorded beneath it across 1 jurisdiction. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.
Those 6 subsidiaries span Germany jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Three of the 6 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
