Puteaux, July 8, 2025: The Blockchain Group (ISIN: FR0011053636, ticker: ALTBG) (the “Company”), listed on Euronext Growth Paris, Europe's first Bitcoin Treasury Company, holding subsidiaries specialized in Data Intelligence, AI, and decentralized technology consulting and development, announces a capital increase at ~€4.056 per share, for an amount of ~€3 million, under the “ATM-type” capital increase agreement with TOBAM (the “Program”). The Company thus pursues its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy, focused on increasing the number of bitcoin per share on a fully diluted basis over time.
Capital increase as part of the “ATM-type” capital increase agreement with TOBAM
Making use of the delegation of authority granted to him by the Board of Directors on June 11, 2025, itself acting under the 12th resolution approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders on June 10, 2025, the Company's Chief Executive Officer decided on July 7, 2025, to carry out a capital increase for a total amount of €2,997,177.20 (including share premium), through the issuance of 739,000 new ordinary shares at an average subscription price of ~€4.056 per share.
On July 7, 2025, the Company combined into a single capital increase the subscription requests received from TOBAM between June 30 and July 4, 2025, and the subscription price has been determined in accordance with the terms of the ATM Agreement signed on June 6, 2025, namely:
- The price for each request is equal to the higher of the closing price or the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) on the trading day preceding the request; and
- The number of shares requested may not exceed 21% of the trading volume on the trading day preceding the request.
The shares issued will be admitted to trading on Euronext Growth in Paris (offer compartment).
The transaction does not require the preparation of a prospectus subject to approval by the AMF.
Given the volatility of the share price observed during the period, the average subscription price of ~€4.056 represents a discount of 1% compared to the closing price on July 4, 2025.
In accordance with the Program, the Chief Executive Officer has waived shareholders' preferential subscription rights in favor of the investors to whom the offer is addressed, in the proportions set out below:
