mutares AG plans strategic repositioning in the capital market

Following the company's strong growth in recent years, mutares AG intends
to realign its capital market strategy. As part of this, mutares AG is
considering a change to the Entry Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange
and to broaden its free float.

mutares AG has experienced significant growth in recent years, following a
number of high-profile acquisitions, in particular the acquisition of
Pixmania SAS. Considering this strong development, mutares AG has become
increasingly interesting for the capital market. In order to take advantage
of its existing capital market quotation to further support the company's
ambitious development, mutares AG is currently considering a repositioning
in the capital market.

As a first step, mutares AG is planning to apply for the change to the
Entry Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, to fulfil all higher
transparency requirements, and to broaden the free float. At the same time,
it is planning to establish an active and sustainable capital market
communication. In this context, Hauck & Aufhäuser will shortly commence the
Research Coverage.

mutares AG, Munich (www.mutares.de), acquires companies in whole and in
part, which are sold as a result of a repositioning process at their owners
and which exhibit a clear operational improvement potential. Getting
engaged with its own teams, mutares actively supports its portfolio
companies to generate a significant value increase. The focus of the
operational work is to ensure sustainable, long-term growth.

The stocks of mutares AG are listed at the Open Market segment of the
Berlin Stock Exchange (symbol: MUX, ISIN: DE000A0SMSH2).
