Frequently asked questions about the 2026 crowdfunding exchange

On 23 September 2026, Katjesgreenfood GmbH & Co. KG made a voluntary public exchange offer to lenders under the 5.00% crowdfunding subordinated loan 2021/2026, including an option to purchase additional bonds of the new 2026/2031 bond issue (WKN: A5GS6W / ISIN: NO0013759555), which bears interest at 8.00% p.a.

All lenders received personalised QR codes (including links) at the email address provided when subscribing to their crowdfunding subordinated loan. These gave them access to a digital, pre-filled subscription form through which they could submit an offer to the issuer to exchange their eligible loan claims and purchase additional bonds.

The exchange period ran from 23 September to 15 October 2026. The exchange offer has closed.

The exchange ratio was 1:1. This means that each lender under the 2021/2026 crowdfunding loan who submitted an exchange instruction received one bond of the new 2026/2031 bond issue for every EUR 1,000.00 of their eligible loan claim under the 2021/2026 crowdfunding loan.

In addition, a cash adjustment of EUR 17.50 per EUR 1,000.00 of the eligible loan claim, the interest* attributable to the respective eligible loan claim, and bonus interest of 5.0% of the invested capital will be paid in accordance with the loan terms.

Participants in the exchange offer also had the opportunity to use an additional purchase option to submit an offer to subscribe for further bonds of the new 2026/2031 bond issue against payment of the nominal amount.

* In the context of the crowdfunding exchange offer, interest means the pro rata interest accrued from the last interest payment date (inclusive) of a loan eligible for exchange up to the issue date of the bonds, 26 October 2026 (exclusive). In accordance with section 7(2) of the general loan terms for the loans eligible for exchange, interest is calculated pro rata using the act/360 method (on the basis of the actual number of days).

Payment is expected to be made approximately 14 days after the issue date (26 October 2026) to the bank account most recently notified to us. For the loan claim exchanged, you will receive:

  • the cash adjustment of EUR 17.50 per EUR 1,000.00
  • the pro rata interest up to the issue date (exclusive)
  • the bonus interest of 5.0% of the invested capital.

Payment will be made following a final check that the securities account transfers have been completed successfully. This ensures correct and smooth settlement, including tax treatment, for all investors.

Yes, under the exchange offer, lenders could submit exchange instructions for all or part of their eligible loan claim, provided that the amount of each exchange instruction was divisible by the nominal amount of EUR 1,000.00, resulting in a whole number.

Where the amount of a subordinated loan under the 2021/2026 crowdfunding loan was not divisible by 1,000, a corresponding partial amount could be exchanged. The remaining amount will be repaid at the end of the term on 31 December 2026 in accordance with the repayment terms.

More detailed information can be found in the securities prospectus and the crowdfunding exchange offer.

Frequently asked questions about the dispatch of crowdfunding tax certificates

Due to an internal system change, we have ended our cooperation with our previous technical service provider. Unfortunately, the investor portal is therefore no longer available. However, our Investor Relations team will be happy to assist you with individual enquiries.

You are also welcome to sign up to our investor mailing list for further information.

The tax certificates for 2026 will be generated automatically by the paying agent at the end of the first quarter of 2027 and sent by post. If your address has changed (and you have not yet notified us), please send a brief email to our Investor Relations team.

Unfortunately, this is not possible for this crowd investment. The relevant settlement agent is not connected to the verification procedure for tax exemption orders under section 44a of the German Income Tax Act (EStG). However, the capital gains tax withheld can be claimed in your personal tax return.

The investment income from your investment is taxed automatically and regularly reported to the tax office by the paying agent. If a refund of capital gains tax is possible (e.g. if your saver’s allowance has not been fully used), you can claim it in your personal tax return.

A tax certificate is issued for documentation purposes, but is generally only required if expressly requested by the tax office.
