Austrian information technology group S&T announced that they have gained an investment of EUR152.83 million, which is about USD168.3 million, from Ennoconn, an industrial motherboard manufacturer under Foxconn.

Meanwhile, Ennoconn gained a 29.4% stake via the deal, making it the largest shareholder of S&T.

At the same time, S&T announced that they will use the new investment to purchase a 29.9% stake in German computer maker Kontron. However, S&T emphasized that they have no intention to buy any additional shares of Kontron or acquire the company entirely.
