Talenthouse AG: New investor / Publication of key figures not yet possible

Baar (pta003/14.05.2023/22:45 UTC+2)

Talenthouse AG ("Talenthouse" or the "Company") has entered into an agreement with an investor under which he will invest in shares of the Company in the realm of an upcoming capital increase. The publication of unaudited key figures of the Company is not yet possible.

Talenthouse has reached an agreement with an investor under which he will invest in shares of the Company in the realm of an upcoming capital increase. The agreement also includes an urgently needed provision of short-term liquidity to the Company. The implementation of the agreement is supported by various lenders and shareholders of the Company (including the companies of the chairman of the board of directors of the Company Roman Scharf and member Michael Wachsler), who have agreed, amongst other things, to convert their loans into shares of the Company in the context of the upcoming capital increase to strengthen the balance sheet.

In order to implement the agreement and the conversions, drastic capital restructuring measures are required (ordinary capital increase to create new Series B shares with a nominal value of CHF 0.10 each, under exclusion of the subscription rights of the existing shareholders, combined with a reduction of the nominal value of the existing listed Series A shares to CHF 0.02 each). The implementation of these capital restructuring measures requires an extraordinary shareholders' meeting, which the board of directors will convene shortly. At this extraordinary shareholders' meeting, also three new members of the board of directors and a new chairman shall be proposed to the shareholders of the Company for election. Roman Scharf will resign from the board of directors with effect as of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting.

The board of directors of the Company is aware that the capital restructuring measures are extremely drastic, but sees them as the only way to preserve the possibility that the Company can continue as going concern. Certain previous commitments made by other investors, some of which also having been the subject of announcements by the Company, can likely not be implemented.

Finally, it was not yet possible for the Company to address all issues to be able to present the net assets, the financial position and the profit situation of the Company in an accurate, complete and comprehensive manner, and to publish unaudited key figures thereupon. The Company undertakes to do this as soon as possible.
