Listing of registered shares

Altech Advanced Materials AG (Heidelberg, 13.3.2020/17:30; "AAM"; FRA: AMA1) hereby announces that it has been informed by letter of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange today that the conversion of the previously no-par value bearer shares at a ratio of 1:1 into no-par value registered shares, as resolved by the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company on 17 July 2019, has now also been implemented technically from the securities exchange.

With the inclusion of the 1,281,761 registered shares not previously admitted to trading on the stock exchange and the conversion of the 295,791 ordinary bearer shares into registered shares, all 1,577,552 ordinary no-par value registered shares will be admitted to trading on the stock exchange from 16 March 2020 under ISIN DE000A2LQUJ6, according to the letter from the Frankfurt Stock Exchange dated 16 March 2020.

The previous listing of the 295,791 no-par value ordinary bearer shares with the ISIN: DE000A2BPG14 will therefore cease at the end of 13 March 2020.

The Management Board

About Altech Advanced Materials AG

Altech Advanced Materials AG ("AAM") currently plans to subscribe up to 49% in Altech Chemicals Australia PTY LTD ("Altech Australia") for up to USD 100 million from Altech. AAM is currently implementing its capital raising strategy to be able to fund the investment.

Altech Australia is currently building a high-purity alumina (99.99%, 4N HPA) production facility for 4,500 tons p.a. in Malaysia and also has its own deposit for the mining of the main raw material kaolin. 4N HPA is needed for the production of LED lights as well as a separator for lithium-ion batteries, e.g. needed for electric vehicles and smartphones. Market demand for 4N HPA is expected to grow with a CAGR of 30% p.a. until 2028. The process patented by Altech Australia allows the production of HPA as cost leader, as the HPA can be obtained directly from kaolin. This allows production without the use of energy-intensive aluminium. The production volume for the first 10 years is secured by an off-take agreement with Mitsubishi Australia and the production capacity and quality is guaranteed by the German plant manufacturer, SMS group GmbH, Dusseldorf, which has also agreed to contribute in equity to the Altech HPA project.

The project has an investment volume of approximately USD 390 million, of which KfW-IPEX Bank has already committed USD 190 million under certain conditions and of which USD 10 million is assumed as equity investment from SMS group GmbH. Altech Chemicals is in talks with Macquarie Bank on the provision of USD 90 million in mezzanine capital. The remaining USD 100 million is to be made available by AAM.
