nextmarkets AG, an investment of FinLab AG, decides to liquidate its subsidiaries and other assets and will subsequently propose the liquidation to the Annual General Meeting.

 

Frankfurt am Main, March 28, 2023 - The Management Board of nextmarkets AG, a portfolio company of FinLab AG (WKN 121806, ISIN DE0001218063, stock ticker A7A.GR) has decided today, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, in the light of the challenging situation in the public capital markets and the weakness of the financing market, to sell all subsidiaries, respectively their assets as well as further assets of nextmarkets AG.

Following these transactions, the liquidation of nextmarkets AG shall be proposed to the Annual General Meeting of nextmarkets AG.

FinLab AG currently holds 34.36% of the shares in nextmarkets AG and has invested a total amount of approximately EUR 8.8 million in the form of equity and debt in nextmarkets AG since February 2015.

The amount of the share of the liquidation proceeds of nextmarkets AG attributable to FinLab AG has not yet been determined. However, the Management Board of FinLab AG assumes that the amount of the acquisition costs of the shares in nextmarkets AG and the amount of the loan granted will not be reached and that FinLab AG could therefore incur a loss of up to approximately EUR 8.8 million according to HGB accounting.
