CORESTATE Capital Holding S.A.: Approval of a capital increase of up to EUR 74,723.86 by the issuance of up to 996,318 new shares; placement of shares by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process

On February 23, 2017 the Management Board of CORESTATE Capital Holding S.A. (the “Company”) resolved to increase the company’s share capital from authorized capital against cash contributions from EUR 945,801.14 by a nominal amount of up to EUR 74,723.86 (corresponding to approximately 7.9 % of the current share capital) to up to EUR 1,020,525.00 by issuing up to 996,318 new ordinary shares (the “New Shares”). The pre-emptive rights of the Company’s existing shareholders have been cancelled. The New Shares are entitled to dividends as of January 1, 2016 and rank pari passu with the existing shares of the Company. The Company’s supervisory board has approved the transaction.

The offering will be launched today via an accelerated bookbuilding process and the New Shares will be offered exclusively in a private placement to domestic and international institutional investors outside the United States. The Company has agreed to a customary lock-up of 90 days after the inclusion of the New Shares to trading. The New Shares are expected to be included to trading in the Entry Standard segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange shortly after the successful completion of the capital increase, on or around February 27, 2017.

Starting on March 1, 2017, the Company expects its shares to be traded in the newly created market segment “Scale” of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, which will replace the Entry Standard segment as of March 1, 2017. The final placement volume, placement price and the proceeds from the capital increase will presumably be announced in the course of tomorrow following completion of the accelerated bookbuilding procedure. The Company reserves the right to close the books at any time.

The Company intends to use the proceeds from the capital increase for warehousing purposes, i.e. the acquisition of certain real estate assets on its own account prior to converting them into investment products for its clients.
