RELATING TO NON-CURRENT FINANCIAL DEBT) VERSUS EURO 2,2 MILLION (DEBT) AS OF 31 DECEMBER 2019 +168%

Giandomenico Sica, Executive Chairman of DHH's Board of Directors, commented: "In a world - the technology one - where we are surrounded by wannabe unicorns, we prefer to think of DHH as a turtle. A "fast turtle". There is a popular Aesop's Fable titled "The Tortoise and the Hare", in which the turtle challenges an arrogant hare to a race. The hare soon leaves the tortoise behind and, confident of winning, takes a nap midway through the race. When the hare awakes however, he finds that his competitor, crawling slowly but steadily, has arrived before him. Since the foundation of our company in 2015 we are working hard to improve our organic performances - net sales, EBITDA, net profit, cash flow - year after year, slowly but steadily. On top of the day to day activities on our portfolio companies we add M&A, and thanks to that we accelerate our growth. As a result, in 5 years DHH passed from being an ambitious idea "on paper" to a tech group with more than 18M EUR of revenue, 6,8M EUR of EBITDA, 2,6M EUR of net profit and a solid presence in Southeastern Europe, serving more than 100.000 customers in the region through well known brands like Artera, Domenca, Domovanje, InfoNet, mCloud, Plus Hosting, Seeweb, Si-Shell, Studio4Web, Sysbee, Tophost. In these years we executed 12 cross border M&A deals, aggregating the local champions in our industry, and we are going forward in this direction. With pandemic travelling is hard, but this doesn't stop our M&A activities and we are actively looking for opportunities on the market in the Emerging Markets of Europe and beyond (see https://join.dhh.international)".

Milan, 26 March 2021. ("DHH" or the "Company"), the cloud computing provider of Southeast Europe whose financial instruments are listed on AIM Italia, the Multilateral Trading Facility organised and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A.

PERFORMANCE OF THE GROUP

The performance of the group is best represented by the pro-forma consolidated financial statements, which allow to compare the organic results of DHH including the merger by absorption of Seeweb Holding S.r.l., announced to the market on May 21, 2020 (ref. the "RTO"), approved by the shareholders of DHH on June 30, 2020, and effective since 11:59 p.m. of October 31, 2020.

In the information document related to the RTO as well as in the related section of DHH's website (ref. https://www.dhh.international/rto), it is possible to find the pro-forma consolidated financial statements 2019 and 2018, which sum-up the performances of the new business entity, as communicated to the market.

In coherence with what communicated during the RTO process, and adopting the same criteria, DHH prepared the pro-forma consolidated financial statements with the goal of showing the evolution of the organic results of the group comparing them, like-for-like, to the ones achieved in 2019 and 2018.

The pro-forma consolidated financial statements are audited and have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards and elaborated in accordance with the CONSOB Communication no.

Seeweb, mCloud, DHH Croatia).

DHH PROFIT/LOSS ALLOCATION

DHH, parent company of the Group, in the financial year ended on 31 December 2020 reported a loss amounting to Euro 385.127. DHH's Board of Directors proposes to the shareholders to carry forward the loss.

AUTHORISATION TO THE PURCHASE AND DISPOSAL OF TREASURY SHARES

In addition to the above, during the meeting of DHH's Board of Directors held on today's date it was resolved to submit to DHH's shareholders the proposal of authorising the purchase and disposal of treasury shares pursuant to article 2357 of the Italian Civil Code, prior revocation of the authorisation granted with resolution of the Shareholders' Meeting on 27 April 2020.

The reason of the proposal is to allow the Board of Directors to utilise the treasury shares for one or more of the following purposes:

  • executing share incentive plans (e.g. stock options, stock grant, work for equity plans etc.), allocating shares – in incentive perspective – as compensations or consideration or bonuses to directors, employees and/or co-workers, freely allocating shares to shareholders, fulfil to obligations deriving from warrants or other financial instruments;
  • allocating or exchanging shares within the context of transactions related to the core management and operations of the Company or to the strategic lines that the Company intends to pursue (extraordinary financing transactions, business combination transactions, strategic commercial agreements etc.);
  • considering the share as an object of investment, in order to efficiently use the liquidity generated through the carrying out of the ordinary business activity of the Company; and
  • taking actions (if possible under the applicable laws and regulations and in compliance therewith), also through intermediaries, aimed at limiting anomalous movements in share prices and regularising tradings and runs in case of temporary distorting phenomena due to an excess of volatility or limited exchange liquidity or, more in general, to support the shares' liquidity and the market efficiency.

The proposal that will be submitted to the DHH's shareholders is to authorise the Board of Directors, for a period of 18 months starting from the date of the relevant resolution adopted by the Shareholders' Meeting, to:

  • (a) purchase, in one or more occasions or in tranches, up to a maximum number of treasury shares (including the ones held also by subsidiaries) representing the 15% of the shares outstanding from time to time;
  • (b) utilise, for the purchase, a maximum amount equal to Euro 1.000.000;
  • (c) purchase the shares through any of the modalities allowed by the laws and regulations in force, and, in any case, according to the principle of equal treatment of the shareholders and in compliance with article 132 of the Legislative Decree no. 58/1998, article 144-bis of Consob Regulations no 11971/1999, as well as with EU Regulations no. 596/2014 and relevant implementing regulations;
  • (d) purchase the shares at a price not lower and not higher of more than 15% compared to the relevant official stock exchange price registered on the date of the meeting preceding each transaction (with certain exceptions and, in any case, in compliance with the EU Delegated Regulations no. 2016/1052 and the other applicable laws and regulations); and
  • (e) dispose or utilise the treasury shares through any of the modalities allowed by the laws and regulations in force and according to prices and under conditions and criteria determined by the Board of Directors, taking into account the modality of disposal or utilisation, the trends of the relevant prices during the period preceding the transactions and the best interest of DHH.

GRANTING OF DELEGATION FOR SHARE CAPITAL INCREASES AND ISSUANCE OF BONDS (ALSO CONVERTIBLE OR MANDATORY CONVERTIBLE BONDS)

Furthermore, the Board of Directors of DHH resolved to propose to the Shareholders' Meeting the granting of a delegation pursuant to, respectively, article 2443 and article 2420-ter of the Italian Civil Code, to increase the share capital of the Company and issue bonds (also convertible or mandatory convertible bonds or, however, granting the right to purchase or subscribe shares), also with exclusion of option rights or through free capital increases pursuant to article 2441, paragraphs 4, 5 and 8, and article 2349 of the Italian Civil Code.

The proposal at issue is to grant the Board of Directors of DHH with the abovementioned wide delegation (i) for a period up to 5 years from the date of the resolution adopted by the Shareholders' Meeting and (ii) up to a maximum total amount of Euro 30.000.000,00, relating to both the share capital increases (including share premium) and the issuance of bonds.

The reasons for the proposal are, among others, the prospective advantages in terms of flexibility and promptness in completing extraordinary transactions, when rapidity of action may be deemed useful or appropriate to seize the best opportunities, also taking into account the significant uncertainty and volatility of financial markets.

It is to be noted that, in case of approval of the proposal by the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of Directors of DHH does not intend to immediately exercise the delegation granted.

OTHER RESOLUTIONS

Within the context of the Board of Directors' meeting held on today's date, it was resolved, inter alia, to submit to the Shareholders' Meeting:

  • the granting of a compensation in favour of the directors for the financial year 2021, i.e. an attendance allowance equal to Euro 500,00 per each Board of Directors' meeting to which any board member will have attended (in line with the past years 2019 and 2020); and
  • certain amendments to the Company's by-laws, aimed at aligning the same with the legislative and regulatory changes recently occurred and with the market best practice.

Furhermore the entering into, by DHH's subsidiary Seeweb, of three services agreements with Quadrant S.r.l. (which is a related party of both Seeweb and DHH) was approved by DHH's Board of Directors. More specifically, Quadrant is owned (i) as for 50,67%, by Antonio Domenico Baldassarra (member of DHH's Board of Directors and relative majority shareholder of the Company, as the owner of DHH's shares representing more than 20% of the share capital), and (ii) as for the remaining 49,33%, by Enrico Vona (Sole Director of Quadrant and shareholder of the Company as the owner of DHH's shares representing more than 20% of the share capital).

In light of the above, the execution of each of the mentioned agreements constitutes a transaction with related party under the "Procedure for Managing Transactions with Related Parties" adopted by DHH's Board of Directors on 28 September 2020 (the "Procedure") and under the applicable regulatory provisions.

The agreements at issue may be synthetically described as follows.

  1. Technological services agreement (Milan, Via Caldera 21): object of the agreement is the supply, by Quadrant in favour of Seeweb, of technological services (including the granting of using spaces) at the "Caldera Business Park" in Milan, Via Caldera 21, for a duration of 1 year starting from 1 January 2021, against compensation amounting to Euro 255.000,00 plus VAT.

  2. Services agreement (Frosinone, Via Armando Vona 66): object of the agreement is the supply, by Quadrant in favour of Seeweb, of services (cleaning, sanitisation, gardening, surveillance and security etc.) at the industrial premises – currently leased to Seeweb – in Frosinone, Via Armando Vona 66, for a duration of 1 year starting from 1 January 2021, against compensation of Euro 110.000,00 plus VAT.

  3. Services agreement (Frosinone, Corso Lazio 9): object of the agreement is the supply, by Quadrant in favour of Seeweb, of services (cleaning, gardening, surveillance and security etc.) at the premises – currently leased to Seeweb – in Frosinone, Corso Lazio 9, for a duration of 1 year starting from 1 January 2021, against compensation of Euro 10.000,00 plus VAT.

The services agreements described above are functional to the business activity carried out by Seeweb and the premises where the services are rendered – and where Seeweb's data centers are located – are strategically important.

Due to their respective values (lower than the materiality thresholds set out for the "Significant Transactions", as defined in the Procedure on the basis of the criteria set out in Annex 2 to the AIM Italia Related Parties Provisions), the agreements under items 1 and 2 above have been subject to the relevant approval process provided in respect to "Less Significant Related Party Transactions" under the Procedure.

More specifically, in compliance with the mentioned Procedure, the entering into of the services agreements with Quadrant has been approved by DHH's Board of Directors also on the basis of the relevant favourable opinions issued by a proper Related-Party Transactions Committee duly constituted for the purpose, composed by the Independent Director and the Chairman of the Statutory Auditors of the Company.

The Committee, after having been involved in the preliminary stages of the transactions and provided with complete and adequate information on the same, issued the mentioned reasoned opinion, expressly stating the interest of the Company and Seeweb in carrying out the transactions, as well as the convenience and substantive correctness of the relevant applicable terms and conditions.
