Deurne, 19 August 2026 – Ebusco (Euronext: EBUS) today announces that Rhein Holding B.V. has agreed to invest EUR 6.0 million of equity in Ebusco Holding N.V.

The investment represents a strong vote of confidence in Ebusco and its future prospects from an existing shareholder and provides the company with additional financial strength to execute its operational plans.

On 14 August 2026, Ebusco announced that it was in active discussions with one of its shareholders regarding a short-term liquidity solution. These discussions have now resulted in an agreement with Rhein Holding B.V. for the EUR 6.0 million equity investment.

Rhein Holding B.V. is already a shareholder of Ebusco, currently holding approximately 5.1% of the company’s issued share capital.

The investment will be completed in two equal tranches of EUR 3.0 million. The first tranche is expected to be funded in the coming days, subject to the publication of the required (Annex IX) information document relating to the admission to listing and trading of the new shares that will be issued to Rhein Holding B.V. The second tranche is expected to be funded before the end of August 2026, subject to customary terms and conditions.

Under the agreement, 31,725,049 new ordinary shares will be issued at an issue price of EUR 0.189125 per share, representing a discount of approximately 15% to Ebusco’s closing share price of EUR 0.2225 on Friday, 14 August 2026.

Following completion of the equity investment, and taking into account Rhein Holding B.V.’s existing shareholding, Rhein Holding B.V. is expected to hold approximately 16.6% of Ebusco’s issued share capital. This will make Rhein Holding B.V. a significant shareholder of Ebusco and will give it the right to nominate one member of Ebusco’s Supervisory Board, subject to approval by Ebusco’s shareholders at a General Meeting.

The shares held by Rhein Holding B.V. will be subject to a 90-day lock-up, subject to customary exceptions.

Strengthening Ebusco’s financial position

The EUR 6.0 million equity investment strengthens Ebusco’s short-term liquidity position and provides the company with additional financial flexibility to continue executing its operational plans.

Importantly, this investment forms part of a broader financing and working-capital strategy. In parallel, Ebusco continues to work towards establishing a sustainable working capital solution through an approximately EUR 30 million Letter of Credit facility with one of its Asian partners. The LC Facility is backed by a corporate guarantee from Gotion and remains subject to the completion and execution of final documentation.

Together, these financing initiatives, once in place, are intended to provide Ebusco with a significantly stronger financial platform to accelerate operational execution.
