- Europe's fastest growing electronics company raises gross issue proceeds of 91 million euros

Munich, April 28, 2021 - KATEK SE, a leading European electronics company offering hardware and software development, prototyping and manufacturing, and related services, has set the issue price for its shares at 23.00 euros per share. The price was thus set in the middle of the price range, which was between 21.00 euros and 26.00 euros per share. At the issue price, the IPO of KATEK SE was multiple times subscribed.

The offer of KATEK SE comprised 3,433,080 shares from a capital increase as well as a market customary over-allotment (greenshoe option) consisting of 514,962 shares from the holdings of the main shareholders. All 3,948,042 shares offered were placed. The placement volume including the greenshoe option therefore totals around 91 million euros.

"The high demand reflects the attractiveness for investors in Germany and abroad and shows great confidence in the future potential of the KATEK Group. We are pleased that shareholders support our growth strategy and have seized the opportunity to participate in our future development. The IPO will enable us to continue on our successful course. The high level of investor interest confirms our belief to be well positioned to fully tap the expected market potential and drive our profitable growth," says Rainer Koppitz, CEO & Co-Founder of KATEK SE.

With the IPO, KATEK SE is creating the framework for further growth. On the one hand, the issue proceeds are to be used for the continuation of organic growth and overall profitability by focusing on high-value electronics solutions in growth markets such as IoT solutions, eMobility, Renewables and Healthcare. On the other hand, strategic acquisitions are to continue the inorganic growth strategy and enable strengthening primarily in growth markets.

The shares of KATEK SE are expected to be traded on the regulated market (Prime Standard) at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange from May 04, 2021. They will carry the international securities identification number (ISIN) DE000A2TSQH7 and the securities identification number (WKN) A2TSQH. Delivery of the offered shares to investors will also take place on May 04, 2021.

Hauck & Aufhäuser acts as Sole Global Coordinator and together with M.M.Warburg & CO as Joint Bookrunner.

Allotment rules for the public tender offer to private investors

Due to the oversubscription of the offer, not all purchase offers from private investors could be considered as part of the allocation.

Following allocation, investors will receive a separate securities settlement note from their depositary bank. Investors can also receive additional information on the shares allocated to them from their depositary bank. The allotment to private investors will be in accordance with the "Principles for the Allotment of Share Issues to Private Investors" issued by the German Commission of Stock Exchange Experts at the Federal Ministry of Finance on June 7, 2000. No allocation key has been determined in advance.
