Baar, 24 November 2021
An extraordinary general meeting of New Value AG was held today. All motions of the Board of Directors were approved by the general meeting with a large majority. The following resolutions were adopted by the shareholders:
* The change of the name of the company from New Value AG to Talenthouse AG, and the change of the company's corporate purpose from an investment to an operating company, subject to approval of the listing application and prospectus by SIX Exchange Regulation AG.
* The increase of the number of shares of the company and creation of a single class of shares by splitting the existing registered shares with restricted transferability and a par value of CHF 1 in a ratio of 1:10, so that all shares will have the same par value of CHF 0.10, subject to approval of the listing application and prospectus by SIX Exchange Regulation AG. The stock split is expected to result in the listing of all shares of the company on SIX Swiss Exchange in the International Reporting Standard (previously Investment Company Standard).
* The creation of additional conditional capital of CHF 13 million. This conditional capital is intended to expand the company's range of possible forms of fundraising and thus provide increased flexibility.
* The election of Clare McKeeve and Scott Lanphere as members of the Board of Directors for a term of office until the end of the next annual general meeting.

Roman Scharf, Chairman of the Board of Directors, says: "Today I am extremely excited how Talenthouse has evolved and that we are now a public company. This milestone will allow us to expand the ways how we support the global creative community.

The Creative Economy worldwide generates revenues of USUSD2,250b, representing 3% of world GDP and employs nearly 30 million people. I am proud that Talenthouse and our community are part of it. We are ready to contribute to continued economic growth."

Scott Lanphere, Member of Board of Directors, adds: "Having spent a large proportion of my career in the media industry globally, I am eager to help Talenthouse to empower creative entrepreneurs to engage at the highest levels. My recent fintech experience will be a useful tool for the team as our leadership creates the financial infrastructure to propel our community to greater economic achievements. Our past was all about creating a channel of growth for creative individuals. Our future will be defined by the expansion and widening of those channels. I am pleased to be adding this new role as we navigate the many opportunities ahead."
