Gleiss Lutz advises Northern Data on capital increases

Gleiss Lutz advises Northern Data AG on a 10% increase of its share capital, excluding shareholders' subscription rights, which was resolved on 12 April 2023, as well as on a rights offering that is planned for later in the year.

The net issue proceeds from the 10% capital increase are to be used to strengthen the company's balance sheet and finance the further growth of the Northern Data Group.
