EQS-Ad-hoc: BayWa AG / Key word(s): Capital Increase/Restructure of Company BayWa AG: Subscription Price for Uniform Cash Capital Increase with Subscription Rights According to Restructuring Plan Set at EUR 2.79 per Share, Implementation of First Tranche Resolved Munich, 1 July 2025: Today, the Management Board of BayWa AG, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, set the subscription price for the uniform cash capital increase with subscription rights, as resolved in the restructuring plan, at EUR 2.79 per new share. In the restructuring plan, a cash capital increase was resolved, through which the company’s share capital, currently amounting to EUR 92,497,210.88 and divided into 36,131,723 registered no-par value shares, will be increased by up to EUR 184,994,421.76 to up to EUR 277,491,632.64 by issuing up to 72,263,446 new registered, transfer-restricted shares (“New Shares”). In the context of this capital increase, BayWa AG shareholders are entitled to subscribe in a ratio of 1 to 2, i.e., each old share entitles the holder to subscribe for two New Shares. The capital increase is to be carried out in two tranches, with only the two anchor shareholders, Bayerische Raiffeisen-Beteiligungs-Aktiengesellschaft and Raiffeisen Agrar Invest AG, being entitled to subscribe in the first tranche, and all other shareholders in the second tranche. Today, the Management Board, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, resolved to implement the first tranche of the capital increase. The anchor shareholders are entitled, in accordance with their previous shareholdings, to subscribe for up to a total of 44,894,938 New Shares. In accordance with the provisions of the restructuring plan, the two anchor shareholders have contractually committed in an investment agreement to exercise, within the subscription period of the first tranche of the capital increase, the subscription rights to which they are entitled based on their shareholdings, up to a total subscription price of EUR 125 million, and to subscribe for the corresponding New Shares from the first tranche of the capital increase outside of a public offering. The New Shares from the first tranche of the capital increase will not be admitted to trading until the second tranche has been completed. As resolved in the restructuring plan, further New Shares are to be offered indirectly for subscription to all other shareholders in the second tranche of the capital increase, again at the subscription price of EUR 2.79 per New Share and in the ratio of 1 to 2. Baader Bank Aktiengesellschaft is the sole global coordinator for the capital increase and is also carrying out the capital increase as the settlement bank. The subscription period is expected to begin in mid-October 2025. The anchor shareholders have committed to subscribe for up to a further EUR 25 million of unsubscribed New Shares as part of the second tranche in order to ensure total minimum proceeds from the capital increase of EUR 150 million. Any New Shares not subscribed for will be offered to institutional investors at least at the subscription price. The public offering of the New Shares in the second tranche of the capital increase to all other shareholders is to be made on the basis of a securities prospectus previously approved by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin). On the basis of the approved securities prospectus, all New Shares are then to be admitted to trading on the regulated market (i) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with simultaneous admission to its sub-segment with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) and (ii) of the Munich Stock Exchange.
