Framery Group Plc | Stock Exchange Release | December 01, 2025 at 12:10:00 EET

The Board of Directors of Framery Group Plc (“Framery” or the “Company”) has today on 1 December 2025 resolved together with Vaaka Partners Buyout Fund III Ky (“Vaaka”) on the completion of the Offering (as defined below). The subscription price for the Offer Shares (as defined below) was EUR 8.00 per Offer Share in the Public Share Sale and the Institutional Share Sale (as defined below), and EUR 7.20 per Offer Share in the Personnel Offering (as defined below), which together correspond to a market capitalisation of the Company of approximately EUR 633.1 million immediately following the Offering.

Demand in the Offering was strong, and the Public Share Sale, Institutional Share Sale and Personnel Offering have been multiple times oversubscribed. The number of shareholders in Framery will increase to more than 10,000 after the Offering, of which approximately 280 are Framery’s employees. Trading in Framery’s shares (the “Shares”) is expected to commence on the prelist of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd (“Nasdaq Helsinki”) on or about 2 December 2025 and on the Official List of Nasdaq Helsinki on or about 4 December 2025 (the “Listing”).

Samu Hällfors, Chief Executive Officer of Framery, comments:

“We are truly excited that Framery’s growth story is entering its next phase on the Nasdaq Helsinki Stock Exchange. We have aimed to build as broad an ownership base as possible, and we are delighted to welcome new shareholders to join Framery’s journey. Moreover, we are especially proud to have so many employees as new shareholders, meaning that after the offering more than half of Framery's employees are also shareholders. While we operate strongly in international markets, listing on the Nasdaq Helsinki Stock Exchange, our home market, is a particularly meaningful milestone for us. The listing marks the beginning of a new phase for us, where we will focus on executing our strategy and driving the company’s long-term international growth.”

Ville Koskenvuo, Vice-chair of the Board of Directors of Framery and Partner at Vaaka Partners, comments:

“We are very pleased with the strong interest shown by both Finnish and international investors in Framery. The Company is the clear market leader and pioneer in its global category, and during our ownership period we have worked closely with Framery’s management and employees to systematically strengthen the Company’s international position, operational capabilities and readiness for its next phase.

Vaaka Partners welcomes all new shareholders to join Framery’s journey. We are proud of the development achieved during our ownership on the Company’s path towards a public listing, and we are confident that a broader and high-quality shareholder base will provide Framery with excellent conditions to continue its growth and to execute its strategy in a long-term and responsible manner.”

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom.
