DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--$CE<\/a>--Celanese Corporation (NYSE: CE) (the \u201cCompany\u201d or \u201cCelanese\u201d), a global chemical and specialty materials company, today announced that the Amsterdam District Court dismissed the damages claim brought by Shell Chemicals Europe B.V.

\nThe Court also dismissed a claim seeking declaratory judgement from certain Repsol entities represented by Stichting Ethylene Claims (\u201cRepsol\u201d) seeking a declaratory judgment of liability of Celanese and its co-defendants.<\/p>

\nBoth claims were brought in follow-on litigation arising from a 2020 settlement with the European Commission regarding past ethylene purchases in North-Western Europe.<\/p>

\nCelanese issued the following statement:<\/p>

\n\u201cWe welcome the Amsterdam District Court\u2019s decisions to dismiss both Shell\u2019s and Repsol\u2019s claims in their entirety, and appreciate the Court\u2019s careful consideration of the evidence. Celanese has consistently maintained that there was no harm to the claimants or other market participants, and we are pleased that the Court\u2019s decisions have confirmed our position that the claimants in these cases are not entitled to recover damages. Celanese remains committed to vigorously defending against the remaining claims in the Dutch and German courts.\u201d<\/p>
