Munich, 12 August 2021 Today, the Management Board of Blue Cap AG (ISIN: DE000A0JM2M1), with the consent of the Supervisory Board, resolved to increase the company’s share capital of EUR 3,996,628.00 by EUR 399,662 (approximately 10% of the share capital) by issuing 399,662 new no-par-value shares, each representing EUR 1.00 of the share capital in return for cash contributions, making partial use of the Authorised Capital 2018/I. The new shares carry profit-sharing rights as of 1 January 2021. The price per new share is EUR 27.02.

The subscription rights of shareholders were excluded in the capital increase (simplified exclusion of subscription rights pursuant to Section 186 (3) (4) AktG). Only institutional investors were admitted to subscribe to the new shares as part of a private placement.

Upon the entry of the capital increase in the commercial register, the company’s share capital increased to EUR 4,396,290.00. The new shares are to be included for trading in the OTC market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Scale) and the Munich Stock Exchange (m:access).

The gross issue proceeds from the capital increase amount to EUR 10.8 million. The funds are to be used partly to refinance the acquisition of HY-LINE Verwaltungs GmbH (see ad hoc announcement from 5 August 2021), with the remainder intended to finance the further growth of the Blue Cap Group.
