Hamburg, 8 June 2021 - ABOUT YOU Holding AG ("ABOUT YOU"), Europe's fastest-growing online fashion platform of scale, 
has set the price range for its planned private placement (the "Private Placement") at EUR21.00 to EUR26.00 per share. The 
Private Placement and subsequent listing of the company's shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is subject to approval 
of a listing prospectus by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) and the publication of the 
prospectus. 
The final offer price will be determined by way of a book building process. The book building period starts on June 8, 
2021 and is expected to end on June 14, 2021. Trading of ABOUT YOU's shares on the Regulated Market (Prime Standard) of 
the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is expected to begin on June 16, 2021 under the trading symbol YOU and the ISIN 
DE000A3CNK42. 
The Private Placement to institutional investors in Germany and in certain other countries includes 28,571,429 newly 
issued ordinary bearer shares from a capital increase against cash contributions (the "New Shares") as well as up to

mbH), SevenVentures GmbH, GMPVC German Media Pool GmbH and Fashion Media Pool GmbH will grant a Greenshoe option of up 
to 4,821,428 ordinary bearer shares to cover possible over-allotments. 
ABOUT YOU is targeting gross proceeds of at least EUR600 million from the placement of the New Shares. In order to foster 
its growth in both commerce (B2C) and the SaaS business (B2B), the Company plans to invest the largest part of the net 
proceeds to scale its international commerce operations and to grow its tech infrastructure. Further, some of the 
targeted proceeds are earmarked for potential M&A opportunities and to repay existing shareholder loans. 
Assuming full exercise of the Greenshoe option, the size of the Private Placement will range from EUR776 million to EUR941 
million, implying a free float range of between 21.2% and 21.7% of the outstanding share capital. Based on the price 
range set, the total market capitalization amounts to between EUR3.6 billion and EUR4.4 billion.
