Essen/ Cologne — The corporate and capital markets law experts Dr. Mirko Sickinger, LL.M., Partner, and Lena Pfeufer, Salaried Partner, advised the listed 11 88 0 Solutions AG on a capital increase from authorized capital excluding shareholders’ subscription rights and, together with the accompanying bank, on the admission of the new shares to the regulated market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (Prime Standard).
The capital increase was made against contributions in kind in order to acquire the “pay-per-lead” provider Ormigo GmbH, based in Cologne. Euro Serve Media GmbH, which is part of the Müller Medien family of companies and which in turn holds a majority stake in 11 88 0 Solutions AG via its holding company united vertical media GmbH, contributed Ormigo GmbH to 11 88 0 Solutions AG as a contribution in kind as part of the capital increase and received 1 million new shares in return.
Ormigo GmbH was acquired in order to develop the “pay per lead” business area more strongly, to accelerate growth in this area and to save costs for the further development of the “pay per lead” business.
