The Issuer announces that, in cooperation with the Infakt.pl platform (which provides e-invoicing and e-accounting services), it has launched a new solution for Infakt.pl customers to speed up payments for their invoices.
The solution is that recipients of these invoices will have the option to pay for them by using the Purchase Financing product implemented by PragmaGO (invoice payment method). In order to use Purchase Financing as a payment method, the invoice recipient only needs to click on an interactive link on the invoices they receive, which initiates an automated, online process of scoring and selling the service.
The solution will speed up payments received by Infakt.pl customers, give recipients of those invoices the ability to make payments at a convenient time, and increase customer benefits associated with using the Infakt.pl platform. Until now, Infakt.pl customers have had access to other PragmaGO services from the platform: selling issued invoices, as well as financing cost invoices and public liabilities with deferred payment.
Purchase Financing as an e-invoice payment method is the first such solution implemented by PragmaGO on supported invoicing platforms, and more are planned. According to the Issuer, it can significantly expand the potential target group of customers for services provided by PragmaGO.

The Issuer announces that the agenda of the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of PragmaGO S.A. convened for 26/08/2020 includes a draft resolution providing for the payment of dividends to shareholders in the total amount of PLN 10,733,451.30, i.e. PLN 3.90 per share, by allocating to dividends the entire net profit earned in 2019. PLN 6,878,324.58 and part of the profit from previous years previously transferred to share capital PLN 3,855,126.72. According to the plans of the Issuer’s Management Board, the total dividend allocated to the Company’s majority shareholder, i.e. Pragma Inkaso S.A. PLN 8,712,007.20 will be set off by the Company against the Company’s receivables from Pragma Inkaso S.A., which will allow to significantly reduce, and ultimately completely settle, these receivables. Therefore, the payment of dividends only to the extent of the remaining PLN 2,021,444.10 will be a cash expense for the Company. Reduction of equity as a result of dividend payment:
– will not result in violation of credit or bond covenants, in particular, net financial debt will, according to the current state of debt and cash, constitute about 185% of equity, while the terms of the Company’s bond issue provide for this ratio at 350% series J and 400% series L, M, N, O, P
– will increase the profitability of the Company’s equity and its assets. The dividend payment is another step to extinguish all operational ties between the Issuer and the majority shareholder. According to the Issuer, this move will increase transparency, eliminate potential conflicts of interest and, as a result, provide access to cheaper and more flexible financing.

The Issuer announces that it has expanded its PragmaGO® commercial offering with a new onlin product – Factoring Pre-Financing. The product consists in providing customers who carry out regular factoring turnover with Pragma with additional financing-prefinancing for future factoring settlements, from which it will then be repaid. The product is online and fully automated. Processes related to scoring, determining the amount of the limit available to the Client, submitting an offer to the Client, calibration of the offer by the Client (amount, currency), conclusion of the agreement, activation of financing, and settlement of receivables are all carried out 100% by Navi Pragma’s proprietary IT system and take place without the need for Pragma’s employees to be active. The scoring process (determining which clients can be offered the product and at what limit, which is variable over time) is based on a dynamic and self-learning algorithm of over a dozen variable data about the client, the characteristics of his or her receivables portfolio and transaction history. The product will be systemically, cyclically offered to customers. In the Issuer’s opinion, the product can provide added value to Customers (additional capital for business development at times of order peaks) and thus increase the attractiveness of cooperation with Pragma, while at the same time allowing Pragma to increase the scale of its operations and generated revenues. The product has received a positive response from customers. In the first test offering cycle, 48% of customers who received the Prefinancing proposal took advantage of it. Such a high conversion rate with the new product implemented in an automated process also testifies positively to the customer-friendliness of Pragma’s prepared onlin process.

“Receipt of an offer from mLeasing Sp. z o.o. to acquire shares in LeaseLink Sp. z o.o.
On October 8, 2018. Pragma Faktoring S.A. received an offer from mLeasing sp. z o.o. to purchase 100% of shares in LeaseLink sp. z o.o. – a subsidiary of the Issuer. The proposed price is PLN 35 million and, according to the offer, corresponds to 100% of the estimated value of LeaseLink’s shares determined using valuation methods typical of companies in the financial sector. The conclusion of the transaction depends on the successful outcome of the company’s audit and on the approval of the corporate bodies of mLeasing sp. z o.o. and the Issuer.” The Issuer considered the aforementioned information as confidential because, in its opinion, it could potentially influence investors’ decisions. The information had as its subject a significant asset of the Issuer, i.e. 71.51% of shares in LeaseLink sp. z o.o. with a book value of PLN 10,065,851.00. In the Issuer’s opinion, the delay in public disclosure of the aforementioned information was justified due to the exhaustion of the prerequisites of Article 17(4) of the MAR Regulation, i.e. its immediate disclosure could violate the Issuer’s legitimate interests through a possible negative impact on the results of negotiations. Making public the information received in the offer, i.e., in practice, providing the most important elements of the offer, could adversely affect the Issuer’s negotiating position and the final terms of the transaction, as well as make it possible for competitors to take advantage of it. In addition, it could also adversely affect any discussions the Issuer might have with other potential buyers. Consequently, early disclosure of information about the receipt of an offer could result in a reduction in the price of the shares being sold, as well as a deterioration in relations with the Issuer’s business partners. In an extreme case, the intended transaction could fail to take place for reasons attributable to a third party. The above circumstances meet the premise of a threat to the Issuer’s legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 17(4)(a) of the MAR Regulation and paragraph 5, subparagraphs 8(a) and (e) of the ESMA guidelines on the Market Abuse Regulation – “Delay in disclosure of inside information.” The delay did not mislead the public, as the conduct of negotiations and conclusion of the agreement did not result in the Issuer incurring any binding obligations and did not affect the current financial position of the Issuer or the capital group to which the Issuer belongs. The delayed information also did not contradict previously reported information regarding LeaseLink. In particular, the Issuer, in its current report 87/2017 of 21/12/2017, announced the start of the process of selling its shares in LeaseLink or the process of obtaining a recapitalization investor for this company, and thereafter did not provide any information that could change market expectations in this regard. In the present case, there were also none of the other situations in which a delay in disclosure of confidential information could mislead the public, as defined in point 9 of the ESMA Guidelines.
In addition, in the Issuer’s opinion, informing the market of the receipt of an offer prior to the conclusion of an agreement, when the failure of negotiations cannot yet be ruled out, could cause an inappropriate assessment of this information by investors, who could see an attempt at manipulation in the event of failure. The Issuer has ensured the confidentiality of the information in question until it is made public. Pursuant to the third paragraph of Article 17(4) of the MAR Regulation, immediately after the publication of this report, the Issuer will inform the Polish Financial Supervision Authority of the delay in disclosure of confidential information, together with an indication of fulfillment of the prerequisites allowing for the delay. Legal basis: Article 17 (1) and (4) of the Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of April 16, 2014 on market abuse.
