SFC Energy AG successfully placed capital increase to accelerate growth

  - Capital increase subscribed by existing institutional shareholders and
    new investors

  - Gross proceeds of EUR 3.26 million

  - Use of funds to accelerate growth in the oil and gas segment with a
    focus on the US business and launch of the new EFOY GO!

Brunnthal/Munich, 28 November 2014 - SFC Energy AG (ISIN: DE0007568578), a
leading international supplier of fuel cell based hybrid-power supply
solutions, has increased the registered share capital of the company from
authorized capital excluding subscription rights of shareholders from EUR
8,020,045 by EUR 591,159 to EUR 8,611,204 by issuing 591,159 new no-par
value bearer shares. The new shares with dividend rights from January 1,
2014 were placed with existing institutional and new investors in a private
placement at a price of EUR 5.52 per share.

The Company has received gross proceeds in the amount of EUR 3.26 million.
The cash inflow from the capital increase is intended to be used to
accelerate growth in the oil and gas segment, with specific focus to the US
business as well as the launch of the new EFOY GO!. A new product platform,
a "mobile power outlet", which is based on pioneering lithium battery
technology. The Company sees enormous market opportunities in the area of
emissions-free emergency home power supply when networks are unstable or in
the wake of (natural) disasters-a market that is experiencing massive
growth, particularly in the United States and Japan. In addition, the
capital increase will further boost the equity base.

Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy AG, comments: "We have managed to
place the new shares with our biggest existing shareholders and with new
investors. The continued support and confidence of our existing and the
interest of new investors are a clear confirmation of our strategy and
demonstrate the growth potential investors attribute to our business
model".
