Compleo successfully completes capital increase with subscription rights

Successful placement of all new shares leads to gross proceeds of approximately EUR 54.6 million.

Dortmund, December 13, 2021 - Compleo Charging Solutions AG ("Compleo" or "Company") has successfully completed the capital increase with subscription rights announced on November 25, 2021. In total, 973,957 new ordinary bearer shares with no par value (no-par value shares) ("New Shares") were offered during the subscription period from November 26, 2021 to December 10, 2021 (each including) at a subscription ratio of 4:1 at a subscription price of EUR 56.00 per New Share in accordance with the terms and conditions of the subscription offer published in the German Federal Gazette ("Subscription Offer"). 951,614 New Shares were subscribed under the Subscription Offer. This corresponds to approximately 97.7% of the total 973,957 offered New Shares. All New Shares for which no subscription rights were exercised were placed with selected qualified investors at a price of EUR 58.00. After registration of the capital increase with the commercial register, the share capital of Compleo will increase by EUR 973,957.00 from EUR 3,895,828.00 to EUR 4,869,785.00 through issuing the 973,957 New Shares.

The gross proceeds from the capital increase amount to approximately EUR 54.6 million. Compleo intends to use the net proceeds from the capital increase in connection with the acquisition of innogy eMobility Solutions GmbH, Dortmund ("ieMS"), in particular (i) to finance the preliminary cash purchase price agreed with innogy SE and payable upon closing of the transaction and (ii) for measures in fiscal years 2022 and 2023 to integrate ieMS into the Compleo Group and to further develop the product portfolio.

In order to take effect, the capital increase needs to be registered with the commercial register, which will be applied for shortly. Trading of the New Shares on the Regulated Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the sub-segment of the Regulated Market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) is expected to commence on or around December 16, 2021.

Berenberg acted in the capital increase as Sole Global Coordinator and, together with Stifel, as Joint Bookrunners.
