Berlin, 15 July 2021 
Within the framework of the takeover of wallstreet:online capital AG by wallstreet:online AG, (ISIN: DE000A2GS609), the 
operator of several stock exchange portals and Germany's largest finance community, the ownership control procedure has 
been successfully completed. This paves the way for the acquisition of another around 19.3 percent in wallstreet:online

On 23 April 2021 the Executive Board of wallstreet:online AG decided, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, to 
further increase its shares in the Smartbroker operating company. With this acquisition of shares, the participation of 
wallstreet:online AG in the share capital of wallstreet:online capital AG increases to more than 95 percent. 
Licence as an investment institution to be applied for 
In the next step the existing licence under the German Banking Act is to be extended. wallstreet:online capital AG will 
apply for a licence as investment institution (so far securities trading bank). In this way, the opportunities in the 
field of financial services are to be broadened and professionalised. The Executive Board currently assumes that all 
necessary documents can be submitted to the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) in the course of this 
month. 
"We are very pleased that we have been able to take this decisive step for the integration of wallstreet:online capital 
AG. Together we now plan the further strategic expansion of the Smartbroker to a comprehensive and modern offering 
under the umbrella of the wallstreet:online Group", Matthias Hach, CEO of wallstreet:online AG and wallstreet:online 
capital AG, comments on the approval of the BaFin.
