In order to facilitate the keeping of the attendance list on the day of the annual and the extraordinary shareholders’ meetings, the holders of securities issued by the Company and their representatives are invited to register as from 1:30 p.m. CET.

Communication on COVID-19

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is currently envisaged that certain measures imposed by the Belgian government to deal with this pandemic may still be in effect on the date of the Company’s annual and extraordinary shareholders’ meetings. These measures are in the interest of the health of individual securities holders, as well as of the employees of the Company and others who are responsible for organizing the shareholders’ meetings. It can also not be excluded that the Belgian government will again impose additional measures.

In view of the health crisis and the related measures imposed by the government to limit the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, securities holders are encouraged to exercise their voting rights prior to the shareholders’ meetings by following the rules set out in this convening notice, either (i) by voting remotely by mail, or (ii) by giving a proxy to a representative of the Company. Moreover, securities holders are encouraged to exercise their right to ask questions in writing in advance in respect of the items on the agendas of the shareholders’ meetings. The modalities of the aforementioned ways to participate in the annual and the extraordinary shareholders’ meetings are set out in this convening notice and in the relevant forms to vote by mail or by proxy.

The Company will grant access to the meetings to securities holders, proxy holders and other persons only to the extent permitted in light of the measures taken or to be taken by the authorities as applicable on the date of the meetings, and always taking into account the recommendations of the authorities, and health and safety considerations. The Company will also set up a video conference to allow those holders of securities of the Company who have duly registered for the annual and the extraordinary shareholders’ meetings to follow the meetings remotely and ask questions, as the case may be in writing, during the meetings. The modalities to attend the meetings via videoconference will be communicated to the relevant securities holders in due time. The videoconference will not qualify as an electronic communication tool to attend and vote at the shareholders’ meetings as referred to in Article 7:137 of the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, but will be an extra facility for securities holders to follow the shareholders’ meetings.

The Company reserves the right to change these modalities of participation by indicating so on the Company’s website (https://investors.nyxoah.com/shareholder-information Shareholders’ Meetings) if the health situation and applicable rules change prior to the date of the annual and the extraordinary shareholders’ meetings.

AGENDA OF THE ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS’ MEETING 

  1.  Acknowledgement and discussion of:
        1.  the statutory annual accounts for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021;
        2.  the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021;
        3.  the annual report of the board of directors on the statutory annual accounts for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021;
        4.  the annual report of the board of directors on the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021;
        5.  the statutory auditor’s report on the statutory annual accounts for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021; and
        6.  the statutory auditor’s report on the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021.
  1.  Approval of the statutory annual accounts for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021 and the proposed allocation of the result

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to approve the annual accounts for the financial year ended on December 31, 2021 and the allocation of the result as proposed by the board of directors.

  1.  Discharge of directors

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to grant discharge to each of the directors who was in office during the financial year ended on December 31, 2021 (including Mr. Janke Dittmer who resigned as director in 2021) for the performance of their mandate during that financial year.

  1.  Discharge of the statutory auditor

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to grant discharge to the statutory auditor who was in office during the financial year ended on December 31, 2021 for the performance of his mandate during that financial year.

  1.  Acknowledgement and approval of the remuneration report

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to approve the remuneration report.

  1.  Acknowledgement and approval of the amended remuneration policy

Upon the recommendation of the remuneration committee, and with a view to (i) introducing share-based compensation for the non-executive directors, and (ii) making certain changes to the warrants-based component of the non-executive directors’ remuneration, the board of directors proposes to amend the remuneration policy of the Company.

The board of directors is of the opinion that remunerating non-executive directors in part in shares by offering them the opportunity to subscribe to new shares at a discounted subscription price (since the Company does not hold any existing own shares that it could offer to the non-executive directors), rather than all in cash, strengthens the alignment of the non-executive directors’ interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders. This is in the interest of the Company and its stakeholders and is in line with principle 7.6 of the 2020 Belgian Corporate Governance Code.

Therefore, the board of directors proposes to amend the remuneration policy of the Company to (i) reflect the inclusion of a share-based compensation of the non-executive directors and (ii) determine that the shares subscribed by the non-executive directors in this framework will need to be held by the relevant non-executive director until at least one year after the relevant non-executive director leaves the board and at least three years after the moment of subscription of the relevant shares.

The board of directors also proposes to amend the remuneration policy in view of the proposed warrants component of the non-executive directors’ remuneration package, as described in agenda item 8, with a vesting schedule which deviates from the default vesting schedule described in the current remuneration policy.

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to approve the amended remuneration policy.

  1.  Approval of directors’ and committee members’ cash remuneration

Taking into account the recommendations of the remuneration committee, the board of directors proposes to the shareholders’ meeting to modify the cash remuneration of the board and committee members as set out in the below proposed decision.

Proposed decisionThe shareholders’ meeting decides to determine the annual cash remuneration of the members of the board of directors and of the board committees as follows: 

  •  Executive directors: no remuneration for their mandate as director. They will receive remuneration as members of the executive management.
  •  Non-executive director – chairperson: a fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 82,000. 
  •  Independent directors: a fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 45,000.
  •  Other non-executive directors: a fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 45,000. 
  •  Chairperson of the audit committee: an additional fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 18,000.
  •  Chairpersons of the nominating and corporate goverance committee, the remuneration committee and the science and technology committee: an additional fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 9,000.
  •  Members of the audit committee: an additional fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 9,000.
  •  Members of the nominating and corporate goverance committee, the remuneration committee and the science and technology committee: an additional fixed annual remuneration in the amount of EUR 4,500.
  1.  Approval of non-executive directors’ remuneration in the form of warrants

Taking into account the recommendations of the remuneration committee, and subject to approval of the amended remuneration policy referred to under agenda item 6 above, the board of directors proposes to the shareholders’ meeting to grant the non-executive directors, in addition to their remuneration in cash, a remuneration in the form of grants of warrants (which are called “subscription rights” (droits de souscription) under the Belgian Code of Companies and Associations, or “CCA”) as set out below in the proposed decisions.

Proposed decisionsThe shareholders’ meeting decides that, in addition to their annual remuneration in cash, each non-executive director shall be granted annually a number of warrants (droits de souscription) under the following terms and conditions: 

  •  the warrants shall only be granted to the non-executive directors that are in function on the date immediately following the date of the annual shareholders’ meeting held in the relevant year;  
  •  the warrants shall only be granted if and to the extent that at the time of grant the Company has a sufficient number of warrants issued under an ESOP warrants plan outstanding that are still available for grant;
  •  the number of warrants to be granted to each non-executive director shall be equal to EUR 130,000 divided by the value of the warrants calculated by the board of directors on the basis of the Black Scholes formulae as per the date of the annual shareholders’ meeting held in the relevant year and taking into account the remaining duration of warrants under the relevant ESOP warrants plan;
  •  the exercise price of each warrant shall be equal to the lowest of the following prices: (i) the (counter value in euro of the) last closing price of the Company’s share, on the stock exchange where the Company’s shares are (first) listed, prior to the date on which the warrant is offered; or (ii) the (counter value in euro of the) average closing price of the Company’s share, on the stock exchange where the Company’s shares are (first) listed, over the thirty (30) day period preceding the date on which the warrant is offered; 
  •  the warrants can be exercised only if they are fully vested and in accordance with the applicable ESOP warrants plan; 
  •  all warrants granted in a certain financial year to the relevant non-executive director will vest one year after the date on which they have been granted, provided that the relevant non-executive director is still in function on the date immediately following the date of the annual shareholders’ meeting deciding on the approval of the annual accounts over the financial year during which the warrants were granted; 
  •  the warrants can no longer be exercised and shall become null and void if they are not exercised prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of grant of the relevant warrants or if the duration of the relevant warrants under the relevant ESOP warrants plan has expired; and 
  •  the CEO and CFO of the Company, acting individually, are authorized to sign all documentation necessary or useful to implement the above.

AKWEL: TURNOVER FIGURES FOR THE 1st QUARTER OF 2022

        Thursday 5 May 2022

TURNOVER FIGURES FOR THE 1st QUARTER OF 2022

AKWEL (FR0000053027, AKW, PEA-eligible), the automotive and HGV equipment and systems manufacturer specialising in fluid management and mechanisms, has reported consolidated turnover of €245.8m in the first quarter of 2022, down by -10.1% compared to the first quarter of 2021.

Consolidated turnover for the 1st quarter of 2022 (from 1 January to 31 March)

In € millions – unaudited 2022 2021 Variation LFL variation (*)
1st quarter 245.8 273.3 -10.1 % -4.4 %

(*) Comparing like-for-like figures

The global automotive market continued to suffer from production disruptions at manufacturers due to problems with the supply of raw materials and electronic components, amplified at the end of the quarter with the events in Ukraine. In this unfavourable context, AKWEL limited its decline in activity to -4.4% on a like-for-like basis, which is comparable to the decline in global automotive production (-4.2%1).

Products and Functions turnover was €239.1m, down -9.0%. The Cooling business (-4.0%) limited its decline, as did the Air business (-3.5%), which gained market share, while the Pollution Control product line posted a sharper decline this quarter (-12.9%). Control revenue for its part continued to fall, to €4.0m, after unusual previous years.

A still limited level of investments this quarter as well as a clear improvement of the working capital, with a return to normal of suppliers’ debts and the continuation of the optimization of receivables, contributed to generating a significant quarterly free cash flow at €19.8m.

Difficulties in the supply of raw materials and components will continue to weigh on the organisation and activity of manufacturers and equipment suppliers, exacerbated by international geopolitical tensions. In this context, and even if AKWEL is not directly exposed to the situation in Ukraine and Russia, the group remains cautious in its annual forecasts and anticipates at this stage a moderate growth of its activity in 2022.

An independent, family-owned group listed on the Euronext Paris Stock Exchange, AKWEL is an automotive and HGV equipment and systems manufacturer specialising in fluid management and mechanisms, offering first-rate industrial and technological expertise in applying and processing materials (plastics, rubber, metal) and mechatronic integration.

Operating in 20 countries across every continent, AKWEL employs 9,700 people worldwide.

Synerise Closes $23M Series B to Fuel International Expansion

Synerise, an AI-first behavioral data platform headquartered in Poland, closed a $23 million Series B round led by Carpathian Partners, a CEE-focused technology investment fund. The round included a primary capital raise and a secondary share acquisition and was joined by several prominent business angels. The purpose of the round is to fund Synerise’s expansion into the US market and the continued investment into the company’s deep-tech behavioral data processing, AI & process automation platform.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Synerise, an AI-first behavioral data platform headquartered in Poland, closed a $23 million Series B round led by Carpathian Partners, a CEE-focused technology investment fund. The round included a primary capital raise and a secondary share acquisition and was joined by several prominent business angels. The purpose of the round is to fund Synerise’s expansion into the US market and the continued investment into the company’s deep-tech behavioral data processing, AI & process automation platform.

Synerise addresses many of the key challenges of modern behavioral data operations by combining real-time heterogeneous data collection and analytics, with automated and AI-enhanced decisions and instant use case implementation/deployment into live business environments. Synerise proposition stands in contrast to how enterprises tend to work with behavioral big data, which often includes expensive technology stacks with multiple disparate systems and applications from multiple vendors, resulting in chaotic system architecture, data silos, security risks, and excessive human resources required to staff these operations. Consequently, enterprise data ecosystems rarely operate in real time, despite low latency claims from individual point-solution vendors.

Synerise is solving these problems. Its end-to-end platform provides one environment where most enterprise business processes can be managed from. Some of the many use-cases possible through Synerise include individualized product recommendations, content management, loyalty systems, marketing automation, predictive analytics, scoring & propensity models, churn prevention, NPS measurement, fraud prevention, pricing optimization, and hyper-segmentation, all working seamlessly across the web, mobile apps or even physical channels (e.g. a PoS). Real-time execution – within under a second from the triggering event, through data queries, analytics, decisions, and automated deployment – is possible due to the unmatched speed of Synerise’s purpose-built proprietary database technology, Terrarium.

“Our vision is to always be in real-time mode, no matter how much data you need to process. We have created, from scratch, a column & row-oriented real-time behavioral database engine for heterogeneous multi-modal data ingestion, which powers our platform. It enables the daily handling of billions of requests responsible for enterprise-level decisions, without any pre-aggregations or dividing data into hot and cold storage for separate analytical and transactional operations. This gives us a competitive advantage in building highly effective out-of-the-box AI models with self-optimization,” commented Jarosław Królewski, the CEO and co-founder of Synerise.

Jacek Dąbrowski, the Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer at Synerise, added: “We manage model agnostic features for real-time inference and batch Machine Learning applications. Our solution also allows to automate feature engineering, manage feature versions, serve features to models, and document feature definitions. Every AI product of Synerise is based on a universal input format for all Machine Learning tasks, operating on raw events with zero information loss with real-time model updates. Everything is packaged in a self-service, low-code & automation platform with reusable components for developers, clients & partners and out-of-the-box products.

Lukasz Gawlik, the founder, and Managing Partner at Carpathian Partners, commented: “We are delighted to partner with Jarosław and the Synerise team on their journey to building a category leader in the behavioral big data and AI space. We remain impressed by how well-thought-out the architecture of the platform is. Combining a proprietary database technology, a global award-winning behavioral AI, and a low-code interface allows for an incredibly broad set of use cases applicable across multiple industries. This horizontal nature of Synerise, combined with its flexibility to address deep vertical big data problems, translates into a vast target addressable market opportunity for the company. With a deep bench of incredible technology talent and truly global ambitions, we believe Synerise has all the required ingredients to achieve and maintain hyper-growth in the coming years.”  

Cezary Pietrasik, the co-founder, and Venture Partner at Carpathian Partners, added: “The depth of the Synerise product is astounding. Even the biggest software firms in the US do not have such an elegant, unified, and highly-performant solution. We believe that the combination of unique scientific prowess of the platform, thoughtful go-to-market approach, and solid funding will allow Synerise to build a huge business in America. We plan to scale the company quickly in the United States.” Cezary will become the new President of Synerise’s US business with a mandate to lead the company’s expansion in North America.

FLEXIM Presents FLUXUS H831 – Explosion-Proof and Non-Intrusive Measurement for the Hydrocarbon Industry

Standard Volume Flow Measurement and API Determination of Hydrocarbons

FLUXUS H831

FLUXUS H831

BERLIN, May 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — With FLUXUS H831, FLEXIM presents the most advanced ultrasonic measurement technology for use in the hydrocarbon processing industry (HPI). It combines highly precise non-invasive measurement of volume flow and sound speed with sophisticated calculation features and is approved for operation in ATEX/IECEx zone 1. The flow measurement is carried out non-intrusively with ultrasonic transducers mounted on the outside of the pipe. FLUXUS H831 has two intrinsically safe (Ex-ia) process inputs for connecting pressure and temperature sensors. This allows the transmitter to directly determine API gravity, operational density, density at base conditions and kinematic viscosity. Temperature and pressure compensation allows for precise standard volume flow measurement of liquid hydrocarbons.

FLUXUS H831 is equipped with a database for a wide range of applications from light hydrocarbons (LPG, NGL, TP25 liquids) to crude oils / refined products (ASTM1250 liquids) to heavy hydrocarbons (ASTM1250 liquids). Since Oil and Gas processes and operations vary from location to location, application-specific parameterization is also easily possible via a user-friendly editable table residing in the transmitter and allowing customization of liquid names and physical properties (density, API).

Typical applications for the FLUXUS H831 are mass balance, leak detection and interface detection, product identification in tank farms and oil terminals, quality check measurements and verification or temporary replacement of stationary measuring devices.

Peplink’s industry leading product portfolio of 5G routers and management software are typically deployed in workplaces, shops, vehicles, yachts, large vessels, drones, and IoT systems.

FrontierBV is a connectivity expert in the maritime sector from the Netherlands. One of Frontier BV’s very first deployments was to design an unbreakable network solution for the Pioneering Spirit, Allseas’ flagship and the world’s largest construction ship with a crew of 600. FrontierBV used Peplink LTE routers and its SpeedFusion Hot Failover technology to combine LTE, VSAT, Iridium and WiFi to ensure the ship stayed online constantly at any location. Throughout all these years, Allseas remained very satisfied.

Now, Allseas has tasked Frontier BV to upgrade the ship – along with the rest of Allseas’ fleet. With the recent advances Peplink made, Frontier BV has a lot more to offer. These include a whole range of high-performance 5G routers, such as the Dome series, routers with integrated high power antennas for outdoor and maritime deployments, and the MBX series, high-performance wireless SD-WAN routers capable of combining multiple LTE/5G connections to maximize bandwidth. These are further supported by SpeedFusion Cloud and FusionSIM technologies, which make it easier than ever to deploy and manage Peplink devices anywhere. Ultimately, these Peplink equipment will be deployed in Allseas’ fleet to incorporate new technologies, such as 5G, satellite, beam, to make the ship’s network faster and more reliable.

Richard Koenders, Managing Director of Frontier BV said, “True to its namesake, trusting Peplink on its critical network needs was a pioneering move back in 2014. Peplink’s solution worked flawlessly throughout the years and this trust proved to be well placed. The renewal of this deal is the ultimate proof. Now that Peplink has grown much bigger, we are in a position to offer an even better solution.”

Keith Chau, General Manager of Peplink said, “Businesses all over the world are accelerating the adoption of mobile connectivity because of its many advantages over fixed networks. While Peplink focuses on developing great products and technologies in this space, there are plenty of opportunities for committed partners such as FrontierBV to offer our highly differentiated solutions and build lasting customer relationships. Upgrading the Pioneering Spirit is a great case in point. We invite potential partners to join us to bring unbreakable connectivity everywhere.”
