In return, Urruty will contribute all shares in Uniservice Unisafe SrL, Genoa/Italy („USUS“) as a contribution in kind.
The capital increase serves to complete the purchase agreement for all of the shares in USUS. The purchase price is EUR 3.75 million and will be paid by issuing 2,500,000 shares based on a valuation of EUR 1.50 per share. USUS is a global supplier platform for chemicals and fire protection and safety equipment for the shipping industry with a customer base comprising more than 230 shipping companies in over 900 ports. With the takeover, Uniservice Global, previously a joint venture of both companies, will be wholly owned by OTI Greentech AG. USUS’s global presence also enables OTI Greentech AG to improve global distribution of its own ECOSOLUT product family. The Company therefore also expects the takeover to enhance the Group’s overall profitability.
