Baar (pta037/03.11.2021/20:15 UTC+1) 03 November 2021
To be able to implement the planned next steps in the development of the company, the Board of Directors will propose the following motions at an Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled for 24 November 2021.
The Board of Directors proposes that the name of the company be changed from New Value AG to Talenthouse AG (Talenthouse SA), and that the company's corporate purpose be changed from an investment to an operating company.
The Board of Directors proposes to increase the number of shares of the company by splitting the existing registered shares with restricted transferability and a par value of CHF 1,00 in a ratio of 1:10, so that all shares will have the same par value of CHF 0.10 and there will no longer be any voting shares. Subject to approval by the shareholders, the stock split is expected to be carried out on 26 November 2021. The shareholders' resolutions regarding company name change, change of corporate purpose and single class of registered shares are expected to be conditional upon the approval of the respective prospectus by the Review Body of SIX Exchange Regulation AG and the approval of the application for listing and admission to trading of the splitted shares on SIX Swiss Exchange by the Admission Board of SIX Exchange Regulation AG.
The Board of Directors also proposes the creation of additional conditional capital of CHF 17 million. This conditional capital is intended to expand the company's range of possible forms of fundraising and thus provide increased flexibility.
Finally, the Board of Directors proposes that Clare McKeeve and Scott Lanphere are elected as members of the Board of Directors for a term of office until the end of the next annual general meeting.
