October 13, 2020 - Covestro AG has decided to increase its share capital through partial utilization of its Authorized Capital under the exclusion of shareholders' subscription rights from EUR 183,000,000.00 (divided into 183,000,000 shares) by EUR 10,200,000.00 to EUR 193,200,000.00 (divided into 193,200,000 shares). The 10,200,000 new no-par value ordinary bearer shares were placed with institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding process and carry dividend rights for the fiscal year 2020.

The shares were placed at a placement price of EUR 43.85 per share resulting in gross proceeds of EUR 447 million before deduction of commissions and expenses.

The net proceeds from the capital increase shall be used to partially re-finance the purchase price for the announced acquisition of the Resins & Functional Materials business (RFM) from Royal DSM.

Admission of the new shares for trading in the sub-segment of the regulated market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is expected to take place without a prospectus on October 15, 2020. Trading is expected to commence on October 16, 2020. It is intended to include the new shares in the existing listings of the company's shares. The delivery of the new shares is scheduled for October 19, 2020. Following the private placement, Covestro will be subject to a lock-up of 90 days, i.e. an obligation not to, inter alia, issue further shares or financial instruments convertible into shares and not to conduct a further capital increase, subject to market standard exemptions. The lock-up may also be waived with the prior written consent of the Joint Bookrunners.

Information to Distributors

Pursuant to EU product governance requirements, the shares have been subject to a product approval process, under which each distributor has determined that such shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II. Any distributor subsequently offering the shares is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
