DATAGROUP will not pursue the spin-off of its subsidiary Almato AG
Pliezhausen, January 9, 2025. DATAGROUP SE (“DATAGROUP”, WKN A0JC8S) has completed the review of the spin-off of its 100 % stake in Almato AG (“Almato”) to a separate company as a new holding company. DATAGROUP has come to the conclusion that the planned advantages of a spin-off in the current market environment cannot be achieved with certainty through a spin-off and a subsequent listing of the shares of this company. Accordingly, this measure will not be proposed to the Annual General Meeting of DATAGROUP SE on March 18, 2025 for resolution. Due to the currently difficult conditions in the small and especially in the micro cap segment, DATAGROUP does not expect that a spin-off of Almato with a subsequent listing on the open market would be able to realize its higher valuation with sufficient certainty and would thus contribute to an increase in shareholder value.
DATAGROUP will therefore push the further development of Almato and especially of the semantic data platform Bardioc under its own roof until further notice. However, DATAGROUP is keeping its options open for the future carve-out of the company at a later stage.
