Azerion Holding B.V., a high-growth, profitable, digital entertainment and media company,  and European FinTech IPO Company 1 B.V. (“EFIC1”), a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC)  listed on Euronext Amsterdam, have successfully completed their business combination on  1 February 2022.

As part of the completion of the business combination, the legal form of the combined company has  been converted into a limited company (naamloze vennootschap) and it has been renamed Azerion  Group N.V. (“Azerion Group”). The first day of trading on Euronext Amsterdam under the new name  of Azerion Group’s shares and warrants will be on 2 February 2022 (today) under the new ticker  symbols AZRN and AZRNW, respectively.

The business combination received the support of EFIC1’s shareholders, with more than 95% of the  votes cast at EFIC1’s extraordinary general meeting held on 31 January 2022 (the “EGM”) approving  the business combination.

The completion of the business combination supports Azerion Group in its ambitions to become a global  digital entertainment and media powerhouse. The business combination furthermore provides for a  strong complementary partnership accelerating future value creation for all stakeholders through  continued investments in Azerion Group’s growth, both organically and through M&A. Azerion Group  expects this listing to create a new long-term supportive shareholder base, permit Azerion Group to  incentivise the existing and future management team and senior staff and continue to attract high calibre  individuals.

The business combination resulted in approximately €93 million of gross total primary cash proceeds,  including approximately €70 million of funds from the EFIC1 escrow account (net of negative interest  and after effectuation of the share repurchase arrangement) complemented by a sponsor and co investor commitment of €23.15 million. With the completion of the business combination, Azerion Group  received approximately €56 million of net primary cash proceeds (net of transaction costs and  expenses), which will be used to continue to pursue value-accretive acquisitions (with Azerion having  a strong acquisition track record and a broad pipeline of potential targets), and to further invest in  organic growth initiatives (such as new games and features, platform investments, etc.) as well as  general corporate purposes.

Immediately after completion of the business combination and the related restructuring steps (including  the cancellation of 31,228,299 ordinary shares that were repurchased by EFIC1 from its shareholders),  the issued share capital of Azerion Group is as follows:
