News Summary:
MFE-MEDIAFOREUROPE N.V. increased its legal share capital on October 1, 2026, by issuing 1,236,555 ordinary 'A' class shares with a par value of EUR 0.06. This change, charged against the company's share premium reserve, implements MFE's 2021-2023 medium-long term incentive plan, with the number of ordinary 'B' class shares remaining unchanged at 236,245,512. This action followed the company's September 23, 2026, completion of the 2021-2023 incentive plan assessment, which resulted in the awarding of 1,236,555 newly-issued 'A' shares and 844,992 already issued 'B' shares to beneficiaries. The awarded shares were scheduled for transfer on October 1, 2026, and will be subject to a 24-month lock-up period over 20% of the shares. Earlier on September 23, 2026, MFE-MediaForEurope introduced a cross-European simultaneous reach ad format. This initiative aims to allow advertisers to run campaigns more easily across European markets, leveraging the company's full control of German broadcaster ProSieben, which it acquired over a year prior, to reclaim ad budgets from tech platforms and compete with US streaming giants.
