Noventiq and Corner Growth expect to finalize their definitive Business Combination Agreement in the coming weeks and plan to announce additional details at that time.

Noventiq has been engaged in a process of evaluating long-term options with the aim to deliver greater value, transparency, certainty, and liquidity to shareholders. The Company’s board of directors (“Board”) believes that a listing on the Nasdaq in the United States, by way of a business combination with Corner Growth, is a positive and natural next step for the Company, and is in the best interests of its shareholders. The recent announcement to re-domicile the Company in the Cayman Islands is also intended to ensure that the transaction can be completed in a timely manner and is structured in a manner customary to international investors.

The Board believes that the current price of Noventiq’s listed Global Depository Receipt (GDRs) is not a fair reflection of the value of the Noventiq Group and that there continues to be very limited trading volume in Noventiq GDRs on the London Stock Exchange. Nasdaq is a leading global stock market with a respected technology heritage, which Noventiq and Corner Growth believe is the strongest fit for Noventiq as it continues to strengthen its position as a leading global digital transformation and cybersecurity provider.

Jacques Guers, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Noventiq Group noted:

“Today’s announcement is a significant step towards our objective to realise the true fundamental value of Noventiq for all of our stakeholders. We have built a great company with a very strong track record for growth, and a partnership with Corner Growth is an exciting move as we look ahead to a potential listing on Nasdaq. Corner Growth’s team has a strong history with companies in the emerging markets, helping to generate added sales channels, contract opportunities, and access to significant customer networks at the highest levels."

Marvin Tien, Co-Chairman & CEO of Corner Growth said:

“Noventiq fits perfectly within our investment strategy to back leading global technology companies. Corner Growth’s relationships in the Asia-Pacific region, over two decades of investment experience, and its acute understanding of the risks, benefits, and successful execution of cross-border transactions both validate our reputation as a leading technology investor and position this transaction to close successfully, adding significant value as a long-term partner to Noventiq.”
