Media and Games Invest; upgrade to the MSCI Germany Small Cap Index and completion of conversion from PLC to SE

May 31, 2021 - Media and Games Invest SE ("MGI" or the "Company", ISIN: MT0000580101; Ticker M8G; Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market and Scale Segment Frankfurt Stock Exchange) was included in the MSCI Germany Small Cap Index by end of last week. Furthermore, the conversion from a PLC to a Societas Europaea as voted on during the extraordinary general meeting held on April 15, 2021, has been completed.

Up till now, MGI was part of the MSCI Germany Micro Cap Index. Due to the strong performance during the last years with a revenue CAGR of 76% and an adjusted EBITDA CAGR of over 58% since 2018 and due to increasing investor interest, the trading volume as well as the market capitalization have increased significantly. Currently, the market capitalization amounts to 640 mio. EUR (Last price XETRA on May 28, 2021). The average trading volume in April 2021 was at approx. 4.5 mio. EUR per day across all stock exchanges.

Furthermore, the planned conversion to a SE was completed. The extraordinary general meeting on April 15, 2021 has, with its approval of the conversion, followed the proposal of the Board of Directors unanimously. Following a comprehensive review of the conversion by the Maltese Business Register, the Company is now registered as a SE under registration number SE 15, in the Maltese Business Register.

The conversion into a SE will have no effect on the business partners, employees and shareholders of Media and Games Invest Group. The rights of the shareholders do not change as a result of the new legal structure of the SE and also the stock exchange listings remain unchanged.

Remco Westermann, CEO and Chairman of the Board of MGI: "I am pleased that we have completed the conversion to a SE successfully. The conversion gives us an EU-wide and internationally accepted and respected legal framework. Overall, we see an increased interest from investors in MGI. With the conversion to a SE and the inclusion in the MSCI Germany Small Cap Index we expect to get even more attention from international investors. We are keen to continue our successful approach consistently and see the inclusion to the MSCI Mid Cap Index as a next goal. I would like to thank all shareholders for their support and trust in our strategy"
