!!!TEERAG-ASDAG AG
TEERAG-ASDAG AG, road construction company with headquarters in
Vienna, subsidiaries in all Austrian provinces. Teerag AG was
established in 1914 by the merger of two companies, E. Pilhal of

in Budweis/Ceske Budejovice, Karlsbad/Karlovy Vary,
Koeniggraetz/Hradec Králove, Prague, Zagreb and Goesting (near
Graz, Styria) were sold after World War I. In 1922, TEERAG AG
took over ASDAG Asphalt- und Dachdeckungsges. m. b. H.,
based in Vienna-Kagran. As early as 1921, the Vienna City Council had
bought 40 % of the share capital and has since continuously
expanded its share ownership (89.8 %, as of 1993). Renamed
TEERAG-ASDAG AG in 1964. In the mid 1990s the Vienna City Council
began selling its shares (ownership reduced to 82.6%, then to about
46% in 1999); in 1999 the Allgemeine Baugesellschaft A. Porr AG
increased its interest in the company to 35%. Turnover as of 1998: ATS
