Winamp Group announces a change in the ownership of a tranche of its bond financing

BRUSSELS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

Winamp Group (Euronext Growth Paris & Brussels: ALWIN) (BE0974334667) announces that Maxximum SRL, the Company's reference shareholder, has acquired from Hexagon Capital Fund the bonds issued under the second tranche of the bond financing agreement entered into between Winamp Group and Hexagon Capital Fund in 2025. This transaction relates exclusively to the transfer of ownership of the relevant bonds.

Following the temporary crossing of the 50% threshold resulting from the capital increase completed on 23 February 2026, Belgian takeover regulations provide a period during which the shareholder may reduce its participation below this threshold. This transaction enables Alexandre Saboundjian, through Maxximum SRL and Maxximum Group SRL, to comply with these regulatory requirements.

This transaction does not affect Alexandre Saboundjian's long-term commitment to Winamp Group. Maxximum SRL remains the Company's reference shareholder and continues to support the Group's long-term development.

Alexandre Saboundjian, CEO of Winamp Group, commented:

"This transaction forms part of the normal management of our financing and reflects our continued commitment to Winamp Group's long-term development. It has no impact on our strategy, governance or operations and allows us to continue executing our roadmap with confidence."
