LAIQON AG Announces Capital Increase with Focus on Growth and Efficiency

LAIQON AG has launched a cash capital increase aimed at generating up to EUR 6.25 million in gross proceeds. This strategic financial maneuver is intended to fuel growth, facilitate debt repayment, and enhance operational efficiencies. The company has set the price per share at EUR 6.25, potentially adding 1.0 million new shares to its portfolio.

The capital raised is earmarked for three specific initiatives. Firstly, LAIQON plans to invest in its efficiency program, which is expected to reduce operational expenses while improving service quality through its Digital Asset Platform 4.0 (DAP 4.0). Secondly, funds will support the expansion of white label partnerships and sales force enhancements, crucial for scaling LAIQON's products and broadening its customer base. Lastly, the introduction of an information security management system compliant with ISO 27001 standards will elevate IT security levels and foster stronger partnerships, notably with entities like Union Investment.

The proceeds from the capital increase, supplemented by the anticipated conversion of 85% of its 20/24 convertible bond holders into equity, will significantly strengthen LAIQON's financial stance. This financial restructuring is predicted not only to mitigate cash outflows due to debt repayments but also to offer enough flexibility for the company to pursue its pronounced strategic growth initiatives effectively.
