- 5. In accordance with the previous item, convene a new General Assembly of the Company with an agenda that includes decisions on the increase of the share capital of the Company, a possible decision on the reduction of the share capital, as well as all other decisions that may be necessary for a successful recapitalization of the Company (e.g. a decision on the exclusion of the rights of existing shareholders, a decision on the exemption of the obligation to publish a public offering and changes to the Articles of Association).
- 6. At the General Assembly of the Company, it presents information at least on the essential content of all received bids (without specifying the persons of the bidder/investor), submits its selection proposal, with an explanation of the same.
- 7. It is proposed to the Management Board of the Company to adequately ensure that the selected bidder will pay the amount for which it submitted its binding offer.
Justification
On 14 April 2025, JADRAN d.d. informed the public through the Zagreb Stock Exchange that the Management Board of the Company, after a re-analysis of the received expressions of interest expressed in the form of non-binding offers, made a decision to terminate the selection process of potential strategic investors, as a result of which the due diligence procedure of the Company will not be carried out.
In order to secure the financial resources necessary for the implementation of the new investment cycle, which includes further development of the Company's operations, improvement of the quality of existing capacities and, if necessary, their expansion, it is considered necessary to carry out a recapitalization of the Company. Such an investment cycle should in the long term contribute to strengthening the financial stability and competitiveness of the Company, increasing the value for all shareholders, as well as preserving and developing employment and achieving positive effects for the local community.
Given the complexity of the procedure, which includes a number of interrelated activities, it is proposed that the General Assembly of the Company first adopt a decision to repeal the Decision on the increase of the share capital and the issuance of ordinary shares by means of a public offering of cash contributions, the amendment of the Company's Articles of Association and the listing of new shares on the regulated market, and to propose to the Management Board and the Supervisory Board of the Company to initiate and implement a new procedure of recapitalization of the Company, with previously clearly defined rules and structure of the procedure, in order to ensure the highest level of transparency, competition and legal and operational certainty of the realization of such a transaction.
