              <strong>Paris, June 13 – Six months after a change of ownership, Size Factory, the French leader in men's plus sizes clothes, announces the acquisition of Capel, the historic premium player in the sector. Supported by LBO France, Size Factory is accelerating its development strategy in a fast-growing market. The new Capel-Size Factory group brings together the complementary expertise of the two leading brands in men's plus sizes in France, both strongly committed to inclusive and responsible ready-to-wear. Its ambition is to become the benchmark player in Europe.</strong><strong> </strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              In the fashion sector, tall and overweight men are often forgotten, finding it very difficult to find products in their size in traditional ready-to-wear chains or brands. As a result, they tend to turn more to specialist players. Size Factory and Capel are the two main brands and stores in France exclusively dedicated to men who are not of the standard sizes: they dress tall and overweight men with sizes and cuts adapted to all morphologies: from 2XL to 10XL, and up to 2.20m. Inclusive by nature, they enable people who are often excluded from the clothing market to finally dress well.\r\n
              \r\n
              &nbsp;\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Capel, the premium brand and pioneer in plus-size fashion</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              Founded in 1958, Capel is the pioneering brand in men's plus-size fashion in France. It offers tall and overweight men up to size 78 a complete, top-of-the-range and contemporary men's wardrobe, perfectly adapted to different morphologies thanks to its unique expertise in sizes and cuts. More than 55 different sizes are available for each model, offering the perfect combination of heights and widths to suit every exceptional stature.\r\n
              \r\n
              Over the years, the brand's reputation has been built on strong values: product quality with exceptional fabrics and materials, cuts designed to guarantee absolute comfort and elegance in all circumstances, and seamless service in its shops.\r\n
              \r\n
              Capel is committed to responsible fashion movement: the company develops products recognised for their quality and durability. It strives to locate its production in France and Europe to offer products that are more responsible and respectful of the environment: "Capel, fashion made in not far away".\r\n
              \r\n

              <strong>Creation of the Capel-Size Factory group</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              With the acquisition of Capel, Size Factory achieves the initial development objectives formulated with LBO France, and creates the Capel-Size Factory group. This acquisition, entirely financed by Zencap, is a continuation of the impact financing put in place at the time of the LBO in December 2022. The achievement of ESG targets, determined in close collaboration with management and LBO France, will enable the group to accelerate its CSR strategy, with a consequent margin adjustment. The new group's ambition is to become the leading men's plus-size group in Europe, resolutely committed to inclusive and responsible fashion.\r\n
              \r\n
              Capel-Size Factory now operates two brands with complementary positioning: Capel, the sector's premium brand, distributed in its three shops located on the finest shopping streets in Paris, Lyon and Strasbourg; and Size Factory, the multi-brand chain dedicated to men's plus sizes, present in 30 shops on the cities’ outskirts. The new group now brings together the best men's plus-size offering in France and the most expert teams in the market. Capel-Size Factory will thus have the resources to pursue a broader objective of international expansion, alongside LBO France, a multi-specialist investment platform.\r\n
              \r\n
              Jean-Marie Leroy, Partner in charge of LBO France Small Caps activity:<em> "Six months after acquiring a stake in Size Factory, we have already reached a new step in our strategic development. We are particularly pleased to be supporting Capel-Size Factory on this new growth path and to be playing our part in reinventing the ready-to-wear sector, in favour of a more responsible and inclusive fashion."</em>\r\n
              \r\n
              Ambroise Fondeur, CEO of Capel-Size Factory: <em>"The acquisition of Capel should enable us to create the reference group for men's plus sizes in France and Europe. It's an ideal marriage between Capel, the historic player that has developed a strong brand, and Size Factory, the leading specialist player in the sector. By combining the unique expertise of the two teams, we will be strengthening our group and our ability to provide even better clothing for tall and overweight men in France, and globally in the future.”</em>\r\n

              At the forefront of this eco-district, which is about to complete its full redevelopment, NETWORK 2 offers CDC Group's IT services teams a new location with a strong architectural identity and exceptional visibility, where they will move into in S1 2024.\r\n
              \r\n
              Owned since the end of 2020 by LBO France (via its White Stone VII fund) and CDC Investissement Immobilier (on behalf of the Caisse des Dépôts) from the developers Codic and Nexity, this new complex, which is committed to an ecological and responsible approach, benefits from HQE ("Excellent" level) and BREEAM ("Excellent" level) certifications and environmental labels to offer an energy performance in line with RT 2012 - 30%, while also benefiting from a WiredScore "Platinum" level certification.\r\n
              \r\n
              In line with the ESG commitments of LBO France and CDC Investissement Immobilier, these certifications will be supplemented, in collaboration with the future user, by several initiatives in terms of accessibility for people with reduce mobility, equipment for electric vehicles, additional services and catering areas.\r\n
              \r\n
              Julien Rouillon, Managing Director, LBO France: "We are very pleased to welcome the CDC Informatique teams to NETWORK 2, of which the construction works have just been completed. This lease confirms our belief in the attractiveness of the Bagneux sector, which is currently undergoing a major renewal. It also rewards the particular attention paid by our teams and those of our partners to\r\n

              &nbsp;\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Paris, January 26 – hemea, an architecture and renovation studio, has received the support of two trusted investors to accelerate its development and support its ambitions in the renovation market. LBO France and Daphni are investing €10 million in the company, which has experienced notable growth since its creation in 2015. The two investors are banking on the renovation market, a sector driven by new energy regulations and the desire of individuals to improve their homes.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> </strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> </strong><strong>The added value of the hemea concept, the human digital</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              hemea offers support to private individuals from the design to the completion of architectural, renovation, elevation or extension projects. The company's strength is that it has rethought the often stressful "refurbishment works" experience by combining digital technology with direct support on the building site. The client is thus accompanied from A to Z by architects, project managers and support experts who facilitate and secure the completion of the work.\r\n
              \r\n
              With 90 employees so far, the company has already completed more than 3,000 projects.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> </strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Objective: to become the reference for renovation in France by 2025</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              With 9 agencies in France, hemea intends to continue its development and cover the entire French territory by 2025. It is based on a solid business model, which enables the company to be profitable in Paris and Lyon, the first two cities in which it has established.\r\n
              \r\n
              Thanks to a tailor-made offer, adapted to the specificities of the local market, the Company generates remarkable results in a competitive market.\r\n
              \r\n
              Its ambition, based on a strong social and environmental project, has enabled it to raise €10 million from LBO France and Daphni. These two investors share a common approach: support companies that are committed, meaningful and focused on environmental issues.\r\n

              <strong>A growing renovation market driven by energy efficiency</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              The fundraising will enable hemea to develop a specific offer in favour of energy renovation because renovation is taking over from new construction!\r\n
              \r\n
              This is one of the main trends of the Opinionway<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1">[1]</a> study carried out in 2021 for hemea and Artemis Courtage, which reveals that 3 out of 5 French people are planning to buy a main home requiring work and are therefore prioritising renovation over construction.\r\n
              \r\n
              hemea is committed to supporting private individuals in their renovation projects while providing them with sound advice on the importance of energy renovation. Supported and surrounded by trusted partners and contractors with the hemea label, the company offers a certified service to meet the growing expectations in this area. A structurally buoyant market, renovation will also be strongly supported in the coming months and years by the new legislation introduced at the beginning of the year, which prohibits the rental of energy sieves.\r\n
              \r\n
              &nbsp;\r\n
              \r\n
              <em>Yann Depoys, managing director of hemea et Matthieu Burin, president and founder of hemea </em>“<em>As CEO and founder of hemea, I am very proud of this milestone with renowned investors and I am convinced that this fundraising will allow us to continue to grow and innovate in order to offer even more value to our customers and to our entire ecosystem</em>” said Matthieu Burin, president and founder of hemea.\r\n
              \r\n
              Stéphanie Casciola, CEO of LBO France and Head of Real Estate and Proptech said: <em>“With hemea, we are completing the fourth investment of Newstone, our impact fund dedicated to Proptech. The demand for property renovation, and more specifically the demand for energy-efficient renovation of these properties, is huge. LBO France is mobilising all of its knowledge and experience in this field to accelerate the development of hemea, a fast-growing company that enables people to project themselves into a greener habitat.”</em>\r\n
              \r\n
              Laura Panquet, Director of Proptech Investment, adds: “<em>The challenges of renovation are massive and individuals are often helpless when faced with the complexity of a project. We chose to support hemea in its growth because the startup has found the solution to provide its customers with a very high level of services: develop the loyalty of quality contractors by providing them with digital tools that simplify their day-to-day work.”</em>\r\n
              \r\n
              “<em>hemea is a player that has emerged as a trusted third party in the world of renovation work, providing the necessary guarantee of quality to satisfy the platform's customers. We are very pleased to continue to participate in financing growth, particularly in the energy renovation segment, which is one of the main levers identified to slowdown climate change</em>”, emphasise Pierre-Yves Meerschman and Stanislas Lot of daphni.\r\n

              <h2 style="text-align: center;">LBO France invests as a majority shareholder in Size Factory, the French leader in men's plus sizes clothes</h2>\r\n
              <strong>Paris, December 13 – LBO France announces the acquisition of a majority stake in Size Factory, a company specialising in men's plus size fashion, alongside the management team and co-founders. This transaction is the sixth investment of its Small Caps Opportunities II fund, dedicated to the development of French and Italian SMEs. The themes of inclusiveness and circular economy, which are part of the company's DNA, reflect LBO France's ESG and climate commitment. With this transaction, Size Factory intends to expand its retail network in France and in Europe and to strengthen its online presence.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              Since 2011, Size Factory has specialised in men's plus size fashion, first by offering high-end clothing online, then by extending its network of physical shops. Size Factory distinguishes itself from other players thanks to its premium positioning and its wide range of products, made up of both well-known brands and its own brands. The brand is now the leading dedicated e-commerce site and the leading specialist network with 28 points of sale in France, while showing strong profitability.\r\n
              Size Factory offers a range of clothing from 2XL to 8XL for overweight and tall men, thus meeting a demand that is poorly addressed by traditional players, particularly in the off-line segment. Tall and overweight men find at Size Factory the adapted offer of quality clothing and the personalized advice they need: Size Factory contributes to the well-being and self-affirmation of its customers.\r\n
              This market segment is currently worth more than 1 billion euros in France, including approximately €600 million in the mid and premium segments that the company is targeting.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Strengthening its leadership position in France and duplicate the model at the European level</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              With this capital reorganisation, Size Factory aims at expanding its retail network in France and in Europe and thus develop its presence in the overweight and tall man market.\r\n
              At the same time, Size Factory intends to capitalise on its very high quality of service by reinforcing its omnichannel distribution strategy, which enriches the customer’s experience and increases the number of purchasing possibilities.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Affirm and amplify its commitment to a circular economy</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              This operation should also enable Size Factory to extend its commitment to a circular economy, with the development of a second-hand clothing sales activity. Launched a few months ago, the Troc Your Size application allows exchanges between individuals based on a Vinted-like model, and is intended to become the reference application in the large size segment.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Jean-Marie Leroy, Partner in charge of LBO France Small Caps activity, said: "</strong><em>We are particularly pleased to lead this transaction. Size Factory is a unique player in France, in a market where supply is scarce, and demand is increasingly strong. Indeed, Size Factory contributes significantly to the well-being and self-affirmation of its customers. Size Factory is also committed to responsible and sustainable fashion and is fully in line with LBO France's strategic positioning on ESG and climate challenges.</em><strong>"</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Ambroise Fondeur, CEO of Size Factory since the beginning of 2022 and a personal investor in this fundraising, said: "</strong><em>We are delighted to open this new chapter in our development alongside a recognised player like LBO France. This partnership opens up exciting new prospects for Size Factory, amongst the consolidation of its presence on the French market and the development of its model in other European countries.</em><strong>"</strong>\r\n

              <h2 style="text-align: center;">LBO France strengthens its digital health team and consolidates its European ambitions with the recruitment of Matthes Seeling as Investment Director based in Berlin</h2>\r\n
              <strong>Paris, October 7, 2022 - As a multi-specialist investment platform, LBO France has developed a Venture - Digital Health activity since 2016 through its SISA and Digital Health 2 funds. The arrival of Matthes Seeling, a medical doctor and Medtech specialist, who will be based in Berlin, will enable the Digital Health team to continue its development in Europe and, in particular, to take advantage of investment opportunities in digital health offered by the DACH region by having a local presence.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              As part of its platform strategy, LBO France is developing in-depth expertise in market segments identified as promising. In digital health, LBO France supports companies in the late stage of development whose ambition is to contribute to improving healthcare systems by becoming world leaders in their sector.\r\n
              \r\n
              LBO France's Venture – Digital Health investment team has both sector and business expertise, being composed of doctors and tech specialists. A pioneer in this segment, it was one of the first in Europe to set up a specialized fund and has a track record of 20 investments in France and in the UK.\r\n
              \r\n
              The arrival of Matthes Seeling, a physician and Medtech specialist, will enable the Venture – Digital Health team to directly address companies in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), one of the most dynamic in Europe with approximately €2 billion in cumulative investments between 2010 and 2020 and about the same amount since 2020. By being based in Berlin, Matthes Seeling will be at the heart of one of Europe's most promising ecosystems in the medical field. With 40,000 new companies founded every year, Berlin has become one of the most attractive cities in Europe for start-ups, especially in the field of life sciences and digital health.\r\n
              \r\n
              Matthes Seeling holds a medical degree from the Freie Universität Berlin, a doctorate in medicine from the Charité Berlin and a master's degree in Health Systems Management from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He began his career within the German hospital group Vivantes as a physician in various Berlin sites.\r\n
              \r\n
              He then joined Berlin's Charité University Hospital first as a specialist physician, before taking over the commercial management of the hospital's Center for Anesthesiology, Intensive Care Medicine and Operating Room Management. Since 2018, he held the position of Director Integrated Healthcare Solutions for Germany at Medtronic, a global American medical technology company. From 2009 to 2011, Matthes Seeling was a consultant and then Deputy Director at the German Hospital Federation.\r\n
              \r\n
              "<em>I am very pleased that Matthes Seeling is joining us. We are convinced that the DACH market has great potential in digital health, which we will be able to seize. Thanks to Matthes, we now have an office in Berlin. His</em>\r\n

              <h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>French construction tech startup Teamoty raises €3 million in Serie A led by </strong><strong>LBO France to expand in France and Europe</strong></h2>\r\n
              Paris, 27 September 2022 –<strong> Teamoty, a pioneer in the digitalisation of the supply chain for construction projects, has raised €3 million to accelerate the marketing of its software suite on the French and European markets. LBO France, a multi-specialist investment platform, is leading the round through NewStone, its impact fund dedicated to Proptech, together with Rise PropTech Fund and BTP Capital Investissement.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>A new player in the sector for greater efficiency and positive impact on construction sites</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              Founded in 2018, Teamoty has developed a software suite capable of digitising site logistics and thus enabling construction professionals to better control costs and deadline management, to improve project productivity, and to reduce the environmental footprint of sites that are very high CO2 and waste emitters. Teamoty's solutions meet an environmental challenge and have a particularly positive impact by limiting the number of deliveries, drastically reducing waste and promoting better recycling by optimising sorting management.\r\n
              \r\n
              In the construction sector, nearly 80% of projects are delivered late or end up over budget due to management tools that are not adapted to the complexity of the sites. To overcome this problem, Teamoty was one of the first in France to use Lean Construction techniques, which optimise the management of construction sites using collaborative management tools. This approach has already convinced more than 100 construction companies, including major players such as Bouygues and Spie Batignolles in France and BPC Group in Belgium. Already translated into 5 languages and tested in more than 11 countries by more than 5,000 users, the software suite is now\r\n
              ready for international deployment.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>A digital offer to support the global transformation of the construction sector and to improve the attractiveness of the profession to young people</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              A software suite 100% dedicated to the planning and logistics of construction sites, Teamoty is not a simple digitalization solution, it also helps companies in the sector to transform themselves in a more global and sustainable way. Its solutions, which include two modules published in Saas mode, cover both upstream planning and real-time monitoring of the site, as well as logistics via supply management. They enable each of the trades to be coordinated in real time, to change the way they work together and ultimately to improve the performance of the sites. The aim is to create value and save resources: build faster, better and at lower cost. With this new tool, a real transformation of the sector is underway.\r\n
              \r\n
              Furthermore, solutions such as those offered by Teamoty actively contribute to improving the image and attractiveness of a sector that is still poorly digitalised and still suffers from a lack of manpower and recruitment difficulties, particularly among young people.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Deployment and expansion strategy of the offer in Europe</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              With this first round of financing, Teamoty's strategy is to continue to develop and support the transformation of the sector. The support of LBO France, Rise PropTech Fund and BTP Capital Investissement will enable the company to accelerate its commercial development in France and Europe and to continue to enhance its software suite. This strategy includes the rapid and significant recruitment of new skills.\r\n
              \r\n
              The market on which Teamoty is positioned is developing rapidly due to the awareness of the players in the ecosystem and the regulatory requirements. The objective is to anchor its offer to various clients in new countries and to allow the use of the software suite on all types of projects, in new construction as well as in rehabilitation, for housing as well as for offices, and in the context of public works or civil engineering.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Fabien Font, Co-founder and CEO of Teamoty, says:</strong><em> "Over the past 3 years, we have proven that the way projects are planned and organised should and can change. With the help of our shareholders, we will be able to deploy our solutions more widely in Europe and accelerate their commercialisation. Our strategy is completely in line with the environmental challenges that are driving the construction industry to optimise resources on site while improving productivity and efficiency in the construction process.”</em>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Stéphanie Casciola, Managing Director of LBO France and in charge of the real estate and proptech business, said:</strong><em> "With Teamoty, we are making our third investment in NewStone, our impact fund dedicated to Proptech. After ZePlug in the energy transition and Hosman in digital transactions, Teamoty addresses a key issue in the construction industry by enabling better resource tracking and supply chain optimisation. LBO France will mobilise all of its experience in impact and its broad knowledge of the real estate sector to accelerate the development of Teamoty, a promising investment that allows us to project ourselves into a sustainable future..”</em>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Laura Panquet, Protech's Investment Director, said:</strong> "<em>We are particularly pleased to be leading this financing round and to support Teamoty in a new phase of growth. Through the development of its solution, Teamoty has the potential to bring about a real change in the way construction projects and site logistics are approached.</em>"

              Paris, September 19, 2022 -<strong> Founded in 2018, Incepto is a unique platform on the market that offers doctors and hospitals access to a portfolio of solutions based on artificial intelligence, designed to improve the quality of diagnoses, and save time for medical teams, without having to change equipment. In order to support its growth at a European scale, Incepto is raising €27 million today. The financing round is led by LBO France's Venture - Digital Health team, with the participation of Wille Finance and the historical investors AXA Venture Partners, the Patient Autonome fund of Bpifrance and Karista. This financing marks a new stage for Incepto, which is launching its offer in four new countries in Europe (Germany, Spain, Italy and Portugal).</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              As part of Incepto’s development, four new subsidiaries are created in Germany, Spain, Italy and Portugal with the aim of anchoring its position as European leader in the sector. with the goal to treat one million European patients per month by 2024.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> </strong><strong>From a French start-up to a European scale-up</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              Incepto is also announcing the signing of five new partnerships (IBlab, Milvue, PAIRE, Smartsoft and Thirona) to expand its portfolio of medical imaging applications for emergency care, oncology, orthopaedics, rheumatology and pneumology.\r\n
              \r\n
              By extending its geographical coverage and developing its portfolio of applications, Incepto is responding to major public health issues: reducing waiting times for examinations, mitigating the lack of specialists for certain serious diseases and supporting doctors' work in the face of the increasing amount of data to be analysed.\r\n
              \r\n
              In light with the explosion of the AI market in Europe, Incepto has three strategic objectives:\r\n
              \r\n
              ▪      <strong>Selecting and make available the most powerful AI solutions </strong>in medical imaging for each specialty, guaranteeing high quality standards;\r\n
              \r\n
              ▪      <strong>Creating, with doctors new </strong>applications that meet real needs but that do not exist yet: ARVA and KEROS are thus the first products co-developed by Incepto for the diagnostic assistance of aortic aneurysms in CT scanners and for MRI of the knee<strong>;</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              ▪     <strong>Supporting the transformation of organisations </strong>and working methods by rethinking patient care with medical teams to exploit the full potential of artificial intelligence technologies.

              <h2><strong>SiVIEW, a specialist in AI-driven visual diagnostics, announces with LBO France </strong><strong>a capital increase of €5.5M</strong></h2>\r\n
              <strong>The funds will allow the acceleration of SiVIEW's growth and R&amp;D roadmap with the ambition of revolutionizing visual health care.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>SiVIEW is a French start-up which has developed a unique artificial intelligence technology that enables reliable, accurate, and fast eye examinations to be performed. This can be delegated by the healthcare professional in order to focus on the patient and optimize the overall care plan. SiVIEW announces that it has raised €5.5M in a Series A round with LBO France's Digital Health 2 fund to accelerate its global expansion and R&amp;D roadmap.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              While the need for reliable visual diagnostics is constantly increasing (e.g., due to a pandemic of myopia, increased screen-time, and an aging population), the number of experts able to perform the required examinations is decreasing, and SiVIEW has designed a disruptive innovation that allows quick and easy eye examinations, that are both precise and detailed, to be performed intuitively to support diagnosis and prescription.\r\n
              \r\n
              Founded by vision specialists, SiVIEW addresses a global health issue: to obtain the correct prescription simply and quickly, regardless of the complexity of the visual profile.\r\n
              \r\n
              Marketed after 6 years of R&amp;D, the SiviewExam® solution is compatible with almost all optical equipment on the market and offers quality results (measurements and reports) in less than 8 minutes. It supports the decision-making process, allowing the vision expert to save time and improve efficiency for better patient care. The solution is already used in many European countries and is experiencing a strong growth phase that will accelerate with access to the North American and Asian markets.\r\n
              \r\n
              Just a few days before two major industry trade shows, ESCRS in Milan and SILMO in Paris, SiVIEW has completed this fundraising to:\r\n
              <ul>\r\n
               \t<li>Accelerate its international growth by increasing its investments in sales, marketing, and R&amp;D (e.g., new testing and analysis modules, enhanced instrument interconnectivity, new innovation techniques);</li>\r\n
               \t<li>Position the company as a key player in the management of visual disorders worldwide.</li>\r\n
              </ul>\r\n
              <strong>Laure Pichereau, CEO &amp; Co-founder of SiVIEW</strong>: "<em>Our ambition from the beginning was to become the reference in artificial intelligence-driven eye exams. Once the SiVIEW solution was ready for commercialization, we received the support of major optical and ophthalmology chains in France and abroad. We are honored to welcome LBO France, leading specialist in digital health, as an investor and partner. I am personally very pleased with the trusting relationship that we have built together and which will enable us to work efficiently in this new phase of growth. I would also like to thank our historical investors, CARENCEAU and FIME, for their unwavering support since they joined the capital structure in 2018</em>."\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Franck Noiret, Managing Director of LBO France</strong>: "<em>We are very pleased to partner with SiVIEW and its founders who are recognized experts in the field. With its dual expertise in AI and optometry, SiVIEW has developed a unique software solution based on an intelligent and intuitive algorithm that automates eye exams and improves patient care. Commercialized in SaaS mode, the SiVIEW solution is aimed at the global market. This is the 7th investment of our Digital Health 2 fund, which is dedicated to financing innovative digital health companies in Europe. We are delighted to support them in their ambitious international development</em>."\r\n

          <strong>Paris, June 13 – Six months after a change of ownership, Size Factory, the French leader in men's plus sizes clothes, announces the acquisition of Capel, the historic premium player in the sector. Supported by LBO France, Size Factory is accelerating its development strategy in a fast-growing market. The new Capel-Size Factory group brings together the complementary expertise of the two leading brands in men's plus sizes in France, both strongly committed to inclusive and responsible ready-to-wear. Its ambition is to become the benchmark player in Europe.</strong><strong> </strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          In the fashion sector, tall and overweight men are often forgotten, finding it very difficult to find products in their size in traditional ready-to-wear chains or brands. As a result, they tend to turn more to specialist players. Size Factory and Capel are the two main brands and stores in France exclusively dedicated to men who are not of the standard sizes: they dress tall and overweight men with sizes and cuts adapted to all morphologies: from 2XL to 10XL, and up to 2.20m. Inclusive by nature, they enable people who are often excluded from the clothing market to finally dress well.\r\n
          \r\n
          &nbsp;\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Capel, the premium brand and pioneer in plus-size fashion</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          Founded in 1958, Capel is the pioneering brand in men's plus-size fashion in France. It offers tall and overweight men up to size 78 a complete, top-of-the-range and contemporary men's wardrobe, perfectly adapted to different morphologies thanks to its unique expertise in sizes and cuts. More than 55 different sizes are available for each model, offering the perfect combination of heights and widths to suit every exceptional stature.\r\n
          \r\n
          Over the years, the brand's reputation has been built on strong values: product quality with exceptional fabrics and materials, cuts designed to guarantee absolute comfort and elegance in all circumstances, and seamless service in its shops.\r\n

          <strong>Creation of the Capel-Size Factory group</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          With the acquisition of Capel, Size Factory achieves the initial development objectives formulated with LBO France, and creates the Capel-Size Factory group. This acquisition, entirely financed by Zencap, is a continuation of the impact financing put in place at the time of the LBO in December 2022. The achievement of ESG targets, determined in close collaboration with management and LBO France, will enable the group to accelerate its CSR strategy, with a consequent margin adjustment. The new group's ambition is to become the leading men's plus-size group in Europe, resolutely committed to inclusive and responsible fashion.\r\n
          \r\n
          Capel-Size Factory now operates two brands with complementary positioning: Capel, the sector's premium brand, distributed in its three shops located on the finest shopping streets in Paris, Lyon and Strasbourg; and Size Factory, the multi-brand chain dedicated to men's plus sizes, present in 30 shops on the cities’ outskirts. The new group now brings together the best men's plus-size offering in France and the most expert teams in the market. Capel-Size Factory will thus have the resources to pursue a broader objective of international expansion, alongside LBO France, a multi-specialist investment platform.\r\n
          \r\n
          Jean-Marie Leroy, Partner in charge of LBO France Small Caps activity:<em> "Six months after acquiring a stake in Size Factory, we have already reached a new step in our strategic development. We are particularly pleased to be supporting Capel-Size Factory on this new growth path and to be playing our part in reinventing the ready-to-wear sector, in favour of a more responsible and inclusive fashion."</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          Ambroise Fondeur, CEO of Capel-Size Factory: <em>"The acquisition of Capel should enable us to create the reference group for men's plus sizes in France and Europe. It's an ideal marriage between Capel, the historic player that has developed a strong brand, and Size Factory, the leading specialist player in the sector. By combining the unique expertise of the two teams, we will be strengthening our group and our ability to provide even better clothing for tall and overweight men in France, and globally in the future.”</em>\r\n

          \r\n
          Located at the entrance to the city of Bagneux, in the immediate vicinity of metro line 4 and RER B stations "Laplace" and "Arcueil Cachan", the NETWORK 2 building offers 16,000 sq.m of office space organised around 2 interior gardens, multiple spaces dedicated to services on the ground floor and an attic space with a roof-top of over 300 sq.m.\r\n

          \r\n
          Owned since the end of 2020 by LBO France (via its White Stone VII fund) and CDC Investissement Immobilier (on behalf of the Caisse des Dépôts) from the developers Codic and Nexity, this new complex, which is committed to an ecological and responsible approach, benefits from HQE ("Excellent" level) and BREEAM ("Excellent" level) certifications and environmental labels to offer an energy performance in line with RT 2012 - 30%, while also benefiting from a WiredScore "Platinum" level certification.\r\n
          \r\n
          In line with the ESG commitments of LBO France and CDC Investissement Immobilier, these certifications will be supplemented, in collaboration with the future user, by several initiatives in terms of accessibility for people with reduce mobility, equipment for electric vehicles, additional services and catering areas.\r\n
          \r\n
          Julien Rouillon, Managing Director, LBO France: "We are very pleased to welcome the CDC Informatique teams to NETWORK 2, of which the construction works have just been completed.

          <strong>Paris, January 26 – hemea, an architecture and renovation studio, has received the support of two trusted investors to accelerate its development and support its ambitions in the renovation market. LBO France and Daphni are investing €10 million in the company, which has experienced notable growth since its creation in 2015. The two investors are banking on the renovation market, a sector driven by new energy regulations and the desire of individuals to improve their homes.</strong>\r\n

          \r\n
          hemea offers support to private individuals from the design to the completion of architectural, renovation, elevation or extension projects. The company's strength is that it has rethought the often stressful "refurbishment works" experience by combining digital technology with direct support on the building site. The client is thus accompanied from A to Z by architects, project managers and support experts who facilitate and secure the completion of the work.\r\n
          \r\n
          With 90 employees so far, the company has already completed more than 3,000 projects.\r\n

          <strong>Objective: to become the reference for renovation in France by 2025</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          With 9 agencies in France, hemea intends to continue its development and cover the entire French territory by 2025. It is based on a solid business model, which enables the company to be profitable in Paris and Lyon, the first two cities in which it has established.\r\n
          \r\n
          Thanks to a tailor-made offer, adapted to the specificities of the local market, the Company generates remarkable results in a competitive market.\r\n
          \r\n
          Its ambition, based on a strong social and environmental project, has enabled it to raise €10 million from LBO France and Daphni. These two investors share a common approach: support companies that are committed, meaningful and focused on environmental issues.\r\n
          \r\n
          &nbsp;\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>A growing renovation market driven by energy efficiency</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          The fundraising will enable hemea to develop a specific offer in favour of energy renovation because renovation is taking over from new construction!\r\n
          \r\n
          This is one of the main trends of the Opinionway<a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1">[1]</a> study carried out in 2021 for hemea and Artemis Courtage, which reveals that 3 out of 5 French people are planning to buy a main home requiring work and are therefore prioritising renovation over construction.\r\n
          \r\n
          hemea is committed to supporting private individuals in their renovation projects while providing them with sound advice on the importance of energy renovation. Supported and surrounded by trusted partners and contractors with the hemea label, the company offers a certified service to meet the growing expectations in this area. A structurally buoyant market, renovation will also be strongly supported in the coming months and years by the new legislation introduced at the beginning of the year, which prohibits the rental of energy sieves.\r\n
          \r\n
          &nbsp;\r\n
          \r\n
          <em>Yann Depoys, managing director of hemea et Matthieu Burin, president and founder of hemea </em>“<em>As CEO and founder of hemea, I am very proud of this milestone with renowned investors and I am convinced that this fundraising will allow us to continue to grow and innovate in order to offer even more value to our customers and to our entire ecosystem</em>” said Matthieu Burin, president and founder of hemea.\r\n
          \r\n
          Stéphanie Casciola, CEO of LBO France and Head of Real Estate and Proptech said: <em>“With hemea, we are completing the fourth investment of Newstone, our impact fund dedicated to Proptech. The demand for property renovation, and more specifically the demand for energy-efficient renovation of these properties, is huge. LBO France is mobilising all of its knowledge and experience in this field to accelerate the development of hemea, a fast-growing company that enables people to project themselves into a greener habitat.”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          Laura Panquet, Director of Proptech Investment, adds: “<em>The challenges of renovation are massive and individuals are often helpless when faced with the complexity of a project. We chose to support hemea in its growth because the startup has found the solution to provide its customers with a very high level of services: develop the loyalty of quality contractors by providing them with digital tools that simplify their day-to-day work.”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          “<em>hemea is a player that has emerged as a trusted third party in the world of renovation work, providing the necessary guarantee of quality to satisfy the platform's customers. We are very pleased to continue to participate in financing growth, particularly in the energy renovation segment, which is one of the main levers identified to slowdown climate change</em>”, emphasise Pierre-Yves Meerschman and Stanislas Lot of daphni.\r\n

          <h2 style="text-align: center;">LBO France invests as a majority shareholder in Size Factory, the French leader in men's plus sizes clothes</h2>\r\n
          <strong>Paris, December 13 – LBO France announces the acquisition of a majority stake in Size Factory, a company specialising in men's plus size fashion, alongside the management team and co-founders. This transaction is the sixth investment of its Small Caps Opportunities II fund, dedicated to the development of French and Italian SMEs. The themes of inclusiveness and circular economy, which are part of the company's DNA, reflect LBO France's ESG and climate commitment. With this transaction, Size Factory intends to expand its retail network in France and in Europe and to strengthen its online presence.</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          Since 2011, Size Factory has specialised in men's plus size fashion, first by offering high-end clothing online, then by extending its network of physical shops. Size Factory distinguishes itself from other players thanks to its premium positioning and its wide range of products, made up of both well-known brands and its own brands. The brand is now the leading dedicated e-commerce site and the leading specialist network with 28 points of sale in France, while showing strong profitability.\r\n
          Size Factory offers a range of clothing from 2XL to 8XL for overweight and tall men, thus meeting a demand that is poorly addressed by traditional players, particularly in the off-line segment. Tall and overweight men find at Size Factory the adapted offer of quality clothing and the personalized advice they need: Size Factory contributes to the well-being and self-affirmation of its customers.\r\n
          This market segment is currently worth more than 1 billion euros in France, including approximately €600 million in the mid and premium segments that the company is targeting.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Strengthening its leadership position in France and duplicate the model at the European level</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          With this capital reorganisation, Size Factory aims at expanding its retail network in France and in Europe and thus develop its presence in the overweight and tall man market.\r\n
          At the same time, Size Factory intends to capitalise on its very high quality of service by reinforcing its omnichannel distribution strategy, which enriches the customer’s experience and increases the number of purchasing possibilities.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Affirm and amplify its commitment to a circular economy</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          This operation should also enable Size Factory to extend its commitment to a circular economy, with the development of a second-hand clothing sales activity. Launched a few months ago, the Troc Your Size application allows exchanges between individuals based on a Vinted-like model, and is intended to become the reference application in the large size segment.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Jean-Marie Leroy, Partner in charge of LBO France Small Caps activity, said: "</strong><em>We are particularly pleased to lead this transaction. Size Factory is a unique player in France, in a market where supply is scarce, and demand is increasingly strong. Indeed, Size Factory contributes significantly to the well-being and self-affirmation of its customers. Size Factory is also committed to responsible and sustainable fashion and is fully in line with LBO France's strategic positioning on ESG and climate challenges.</em><strong>"</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Ambroise Fondeur, CEO of Size Factory since the beginning of 2022 and a personal investor in this fundraising, said: "</strong><em>We are delighted to open this new chapter in our development alongside a recognised player like LBO France. This partnership opens up exciting new prospects for Size Factory, amongst the consolidation of its presence on the French market and the development of its model in other European countries.</em><strong>"</strong>\r\n

          <h2 style="text-align: center;">LBO France strengthens its digital health team and consolidates its European ambitions with the recruitment of Matthes Seeling as Investment Director based in Berlin</h2>\r\n
          <strong>Paris, October 7, 2022 - As a multi-specialist investment platform, LBO France has developed a Venture - Digital Health activity since 2016 through its SISA and Digital Health 2 funds. The arrival of Matthes Seeling, a medical doctor and Medtech specialist, who will be based in Berlin, will enable the Digital Health team to continue its development in Europe and, in particular, to take advantage of investment opportunities in digital health offered by the DACH region by having a local presence.</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          As part of its platform strategy, LBO France is developing in-depth expertise in market segments identified as promising. In digital health, LBO France supports companies in the late stage of development whose ambition is to contribute to improving healthcare systems by becoming world leaders in their sector.\r\n
          \r\n
          LBO France's Venture – Digital Health investment team has both sector and business expertise, being composed of doctors and tech specialists. A pioneer in this segment, it was one of the first in Europe to set up a specialized fund and has a track record of 20 investments in France and in the UK.\r\n
          \r\n
          The arrival of Matthes Seeling, a physician and Medtech specialist, will enable the Venture – Digital Health team to directly address companies in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), one of the most dynamic in Europe with approximately €2 billion in cumulative investments between 2010 and 2020 and about the same amount since 2020. By being based in Berlin, Matthes Seeling will be at the heart of one of Europe's most promising ecosystems in the medical field. With 40,000 new companies founded every year, Berlin has become one of the most attractive cities in Europe for start-ups, especially in the field of life sciences and digital health.\r\n
          \r\n
          Matthes Seeling holds a medical degree from the Freie Universität Berlin, a doctorate in medicine from the Charité Berlin and a master's degree in Health Systems Management from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. He began his career within the German hospital group Vivantes as a physician in various Berlin sites.\r\n
          \r\n
          He then joined Berlin's Charité University Hospital first as a specialist physician, before taking over the commercial management of the hospital's Center for Anesthesiology, Intensive Care Medicine and Operating Room Management. Since 2018, he held the position of Director Integrated Healthcare Solutions for Germany at Medtronic, a global American medical technology company. From 2009 to 2011, Matthes Seeling was a consultant and then Deputy Director at the German Hospital Federation.\r\n
          \r\n
          "<em>I am very pleased that Matthes Seeling is joining us. We are convinced that the DACH market has great potential in digital health, which we will be able to seize. Thanks to Matthes, we now have an office in Berlin. His</em>\r\n
          <em>international background and vision of tomorrow's healthcare will also be invaluable in our European ambition to support the dynamics of our Venture - Digital Health activities</em>" <strong>says Valéry Huot, Partner, Head of Venture - </strong><strong>Digital Health.</strong>

          <strong>Press release</strong>\r\n
          <h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>French construction tech startup Teamoty raises €3 million in Serie A led by </strong><strong>LBO France to expand in France and Europe</strong></h2>\r\n
          Paris, 27 September 2022 –<strong> Teamoty, a pioneer in the digitalisation of the supply chain for construction projects, has raised €3 million to accelerate the marketing of its software suite on the French and European markets. LBO France, a multi-specialist investment platform, is leading the round through NewStone, its impact fund dedicated to Proptech, together with Rise PropTech Fund and BTP Capital Investissement.</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>A new player in the sector for greater efficiency and positive impact on construction sites</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          Founded in 2018, Teamoty has developed a software suite capable of digitising site logistics and thus enabling construction professionals to better control costs and deadline management, to improve project productivity, and to reduce the environmental footprint of sites that are very high CO2 and waste emitters. Teamoty's solutions meet an environmental challenge and have a particularly positive impact by limiting the number of deliveries, drastically reducing waste and promoting better recycling by optimising sorting management.\r\n
          \r\n
          In the construction sector, nearly 80% of projects are delivered late or end up over budget due to management tools that are not adapted to the complexity of the sites. To overcome this problem, Teamoty was one of the first in France to use Lean Construction techniques, which optimise the management of construction sites using collaborative management tools. This approach has already convinced more than 100 construction companies, including major players such as Bouygues and Spie Batignolles in France and BPC Group in Belgium. Already translated into 5 languages and tested in more than 11 countries by more than 5,000 users, the software suite is now\r\n
          ready for international deployment.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>A digital offer to support the global transformation of the construction sector and to improve the attractiveness of the profession to young people</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          A software suite 100% dedicated to the planning and logistics of construction sites, Teamoty is not a simple digitalization solution, it also helps companies in the sector to transform themselves in a more global and sustainable way. Its solutions, which include two modules published in Saas mode, cover both upstream planning and real-time monitoring of the site, as well as logistics via supply management. They enable each of the trades to be coordinated in real time, to change the way they work together and ultimately to improve the performance of the sites. The aim is to create value and save resources: build faster, better and at lower cost. With this new tool, a real transformation of the sector is underway.\r\n
          \r\n
          Furthermore, solutions such as those offered by Teamoty actively contribute to improving the image and attractiveness of a sector that is still poorly digitalised and still suffers from a lack of manpower and recruitment difficulties, particularly among young people.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Deployment and expansion strategy of the offer in Europe</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          With this first round of financing, Teamoty's strategy is to continue to develop and support the transformation of the sector. The support of LBO France, Rise PropTech Fund and BTP Capital Investissement will enable the company to accelerate its commercial development in France and Europe and to continue to enhance its software suite. This strategy includes the rapid and significant recruitment of new skills.\r\n
          \r\n
          The market on which Teamoty is positioned is developing rapidly due to the awareness of the players in the ecosystem and the regulatory requirements. The objective is to anchor its offer to various clients in new countries and to allow the use of the software suite on all types of projects, in new construction as well as in rehabilitation, for housing as well as for offices, and in the context of public works or civil engineering.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Fabien Font, Co-founder and CEO of Teamoty, says:</strong><em> "Over the past 3 years, we have proven that the way projects are planned and organised should and can change. With the help of our shareholders, we will be able to deploy our solutions more widely in Europe and accelerate their commercialisation. Our strategy is completely in line with the environmental challenges that are driving the construction industry to optimise resources on site while improving productivity and efficiency in the construction process.”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Stéphanie Casciola, Managing Director of LBO France and in charge of the real estate and proptech business, said:</strong><em> "With Teamoty, we are making our third investment in NewStone, our impact fund dedicated to Proptech. After ZePlug in the energy transition and Hosman in digital transactions, Teamoty addresses a key issue in the construction industry by enabling better resource tracking and supply chain optimisation. LBO France will mobilise all of its experience in impact and its broad knowledge of the real estate sector to accelerate the development of Teamoty, a promising investment that allows us to project ourselves into a sustainable future..”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Laura Panquet, Protech's Investment Director, said:</strong> "<em>We are particularly pleased to be leading this financing round and to support Teamoty in a new phase of growth. Through the development of its solution, Teamoty has the potential to bring about a real change in the way construction projects and site logistics are approached.</em>"

          <strong>Press release</strong>\r\n
          <h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong> </strong><strong>Incepto, the French digital health specialist, is raising </strong><strong>€27 million to support its European development</strong></h2>\r\n
          Paris, September 19, 2022 -<strong> Founded in 2018, Incepto is a unique platform on the market that offers doctors and hospitals access to a portfolio of solutions based on artificial intelligence, designed to improve the quality of diagnoses, and save time for medical teams, without having to change equipment. In order to support its growth at a European scale, Incepto is raising €27 million today. The financing round is led by LBO France's Venture - Digital Health team, with the participation of Wille Finance and the historical investors AXA Venture Partners, the Patient Autonome fund of Bpifrance and Karista. This financing marks a new stage for Incepto, which is launching its offer in four new countries in Europe (Germany, Spain, Italy and Portugal).</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          As part of Incepto’s development, four new subsidiaries are created in Germany, Spain, Italy and Portugal with the aim of anchoring its position as European leader in the sector. with the goal to treat one million European patients per month by 2024.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong> </strong><strong>From a French start-up to a European scale-up</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          Incepto is also announcing the signing of five new partnerships (IBlab, Milvue, PAIRE, Smartsoft and Thirona) to expand its portfolio of medical imaging applications for emergency care, oncology, orthopaedics, rheumatology and pneumology.\r\n
          \r\n
          By extending its geographical coverage and developing its portfolio of applications, Incepto is responding to major public health issues: reducing waiting times for examinations, mitigating the lack of specialists for certain serious diseases and supporting doctors' work in the face of the increasing amount of data to be analysed.\r\n
          \r\n
          In light with the explosion of the AI market in Europe, Incepto has three strategic objectives:\r\n
          \r\n
          ▪      <strong>Selecting and make available the most powerful AI solutions </strong>in medical imaging for each specialty, guaranteeing high quality standards;\r\n
          \r\n
          ▪      <strong>Creating, with doctors new </strong>applications that meet real needs but that do not exist yet: ARVA and KEROS are thus the first products co-developed by Incepto for the diagnostic assistance of aortic aneurysms in CT scanners and for MRI of the knee<strong>;</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          ▪     <strong>Supporting the transformation of organisations </strong>and working methods by rethinking patient care with medical teams to exploit the full potential of artificial intelligence technologies.

          <h2><strong>SiVIEW, a specialist in AI-driven visual diagnostics, announces with LBO France </strong><strong>a capital increase of €5.5M</strong></h2>\r\n
          <strong>The funds will allow the acceleration of SiVIEW's growth and R&amp;D roadmap with the ambition of revolutionizing visual health care.</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>SiVIEW is a French start-up which has developed a unique artificial intelligence technology that enables reliable, accurate, and fast eye examinations to be performed. This can be delegated by the healthcare professional in order to focus on the patient and optimize the overall care plan. SiVIEW announces that it has raised €5.5M in a Series A round with LBO France's Digital Health 2 fund to accelerate its global expansion and R&amp;D roadmap.</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          While the need for reliable visual diagnostics is constantly increasing (e.g., due to a pandemic of myopia, increased screen-time, and an aging population), the number of experts able to perform the required examinations is decreasing, and SiVIEW has designed a disruptive innovation that allows quick and easy eye examinations, that are both precise and detailed, to be performed intuitively to support diagnosis and prescription.\r\n
          \r\n
          Founded by vision specialists, SiVIEW addresses a global health issue: to obtain the correct prescription simply and quickly, regardless of the complexity of the visual profile.\r\n
          \r\n
          Marketed after 6 years of R&amp;D, the SiviewExam® solution is compatible with almost all optical equipment on the market and offers quality results (measurements and reports) in less than 8 minutes. It supports the decision-making process, allowing the vision expert to save time and improve efficiency for better patient care. The solution is already used in many European countries and is experiencing a strong growth phase that will accelerate with access to the North American and Asian markets.\r\n
          \r\n
          Just a few days before two major industry trade shows, ESCRS in Milan and SILMO in Paris, SiVIEW has completed this fundraising to:\r\n
          <ul>\r\n
           \t<li>Accelerate its international growth by increasing its investments in sales, marketing, and R&amp;D (e.g., new testing and analysis modules, enhanced instrument interconnectivity, new innovation techniques);</li>\r\n
           \t<li>Position the company as a key player in the management of visual disorders worldwide.</li>\r\n
          </ul>\r\n
          <strong>Laure Pichereau, CEO &amp; Co-founder of SiVIEW</strong>: "<em>Our ambition from the beginning was to become the reference in artificial intelligence-driven eye exams. Once the SiVIEW solution was ready for commercialization, we received the support of major optical and ophthalmology chains in France and abroad. We are honored to welcome LBO France, leading specialist in digital health, as an investor and partner. I am personally very pleased with the trusting relationship that we have built together and which will enable us to work efficiently in this new phase of growth. I would also like to thank our historical investors, CARENCEAU and FIME, for their unwavering support since they joined the capital structure in 2018</em>."\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Franck Noiret, Managing Director of LBO France</strong>: "<em>We are very pleased to partner with SiVIEW and its founders who are recognized experts in the field. With its dual expertise in AI and optometry, SiVIEW has developed a unique software solution based on an intelligent and intuitive algorithm that automates eye exams and improves patient care. Commercialized in SaaS mode, the SiVIEW solution is aimed at the global market. This is the 7th investment of our Digital Health 2 fund, which is dedicated to financing innovative digital health companies in Europe. We are delighted to support them in their ambitious international development</em>."\r\n

          <strong>Press release</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Paris/Milan, 12 September 2022</strong>\r\n
          <h2><strong>LBO France announces the acquisition of a majority stake in</strong> <strong>Zato, a leader in the design and manufacture of ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling facilities</strong></h2>\r\n
          <strong>Paris/Milan, 12 September 2022</strong> - Gioconda, the Italian subsidiary of LBO France, announced today the acquisition of a majority stake, through the Small Caps Opportunities II fund, in Zato, an Italian company founded in Brescia and a major player in the energy transition for over twenty years. Zato's founders, Valerio Zanaglio and Alessandra Bresciani, who reinvested in this transaction, will continue to manage the Company. Banca Ifis S.p.A. enters as a co-investor and confirms its role in supporting highly innovative companies committed to the green economy.\r\n
          \r\n
          Based on a strategy focused on innovation and the development of the circular economy, Zato has a rapidly growing turnover of almost €40 million and employs more than 40 highly skilled people. Through the use of artificial intelligence algorithms and IoT devices, Zato has been able to implement cutting-edge equipment for the recycling industry, a market previously characterised by mature products. With a presence in 25 countries, including the United States and Japan, and with over 85% of its turnover generated internationally, the group has become a world leader in the design and manufacture of ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling facilities.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Arthur Bernardin, Partner Small Cap, and Chiara Venezia, Investment Director Small Cap at LBO France, said: </strong><em>“This investment represents a tremendous opportunity to position ourselves in the energy transition and fits perfectly with LBO France's strategy to accelerate on ESG &amp; Climate factors. Our objective will be to support Valerio Zanaglio, Alessandra Bresciani, and their entire team in a new phase of expansion of the company. In particular, we aim to strengthen its presence in new markets and to reinforce its position as an innovation leader through the use of innovative technologies.”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Alessandra Bresciani and Valerio Zanaglio, Founders of Zato, said:</strong><em> "We are extremely pleased to have LBO France at our side to consolidate and accelerate the strong growth that our company has experienced in recent years. The expertise, international vision and strategic support that LBO France will provide to the Zato team will be essential to establish Zato as a global leader in the recycling and green economy.</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          Zato is the fifth investment in Italy by LBO France's Small Caps Opportunities funds after Vetroelite, Bluclad, Demas and Astidental Bquadro.

              As part of its program of investment in unlisted assets in the French economy, the FRR launched on June 15, 2017 a competitive procedure with negotiation to select several asset managers who, as part of a discretionary management mandate, will each be responsible for creating and managing a dedicated fund for the FRR.\r\n
              \r\n
              These funds will be invested exclusively in the growth capital segment. These investments will mainly finance SMEs, and possibly very small or medium-sized companies, whose head office or main activity is located in France.\r\n
              \r\n
              Following this selection process, the FRR has decided to accept the proposals from these following asset managers:\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>AZULIS CAPITAL</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> LBO FRANCE GESTION</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> ISATIS CAPITAL </strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              The mandates are awarded for ten (10) years and are renewable twice for one (1) year.\r\n
              \r\n
              The FRR was very pleased with the number and quality of proposals received and extends its thanks to all the participants.\r\n
              \r\n
              *****\r\n
              \r\n
              The FRR is a public administrative establishment of the State created by law in 2001. Governed by a Supervisory Board and Executive Board, its mission is to manage the funds allocated to it until 31 December 2010 in order to build up reserves to contribute to the longterm sustainability of the old-age pension system.\r\n

              <strong>Paris, July 24 2018</strong> – LBO France, via its White Stone funds, has acquired Network I, an office building of about 21,000 sqm, from its developers, Codic and Nexity. Network I is located in a new office park in Bagneux, a services oriented suburb just south of Paris which will be served by metro line 4 and the future line 15 of the subway. The deal takes the form of a “<em>VEFA</em>” (i.e., purchase of a property not yet completed).\r\n
              \r\n
              Stéphanie Casciola, Head of Real Estate at LBO France said: “This deal comes on top of the acquisition of our 15-hectare site in Bagneux, called Les Mathurins, and demonstrates our confidence in Bagneux’s strong potential, mainly in its strategic positioning at the heart of the “Grand Paris” (Greater Paris) transportation expansion project. The Network I building is particularly well located, only 2 km from Porte d’Orléans, 300 m from the future metro station of line 4 / line 15 of the Grand Paris Express, and at the heart of the ZAC Eco Quartier Victor Hugo, a booming office cluster that is already home to several well-known companies and is expanding very fast.”\r\n
              \r\n
              The construction of Network I has already begun and is to be delivered during the first quarter of 2020. 50% of the areas is already pre-let to <strong>Mondadori Magazine France</strong>, through a firm 10-year lease. The Attica-style project, designed by the <strong>Brenac &amp; Gonzalez </strong>architectural firm, is composed of eight office floors, three basement levels, two restaurants and a cafeteria, and it can accommodate 1800 people. The project will benefit from the BREEAM (“Excellent”) and HQE (“Excellent”) environmental certifications and labels and will comply with the RT 2012 –30% standards.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> Julien Rouillon, Director, LBO France,</strong> asserted: <em>“In addition to its many environmental certifications, this development features high-quality amenities designed to serve users and their well-being, with highquality lighting via transparent façades. Special attention has also been given to shared areas, with more than 1200 sqm of accessible green areas, a rational and efficient configuration of open spaces, Wiredscore-certified (Platinum level) strong connectivity of working spaces, and a full offering of services, including 1500 sqm of food service spaces and a dedicated concierge.” </em>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Christophe Sirot, Chief Executive Officer of Codic France</strong>, said: <em>“We are very pleased with this new stage in our Network project. Thanks to its in-depth knowledge of Bagneux and its confidence in the sector’s attractiveness, LBO France is the ideal partner to jointly pursue the successful execution of this project. With Mondadori already signed on, Network benefits from a very robust market in Paris’ near southern suburbs and has all the features to win over new tenants…”</em>.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Yann Le Gall, Deputy CEO of Codic France</strong>, added:<em> “Real estate is now the best way to manage change in corporate organisational set-ups. In addition to its ambitious architecture, Network has been designed to meet the needs of users seeking flexibility, to integrate new office uses and to create connected thirdspaces such as rooftops, loggias, gardens and reversible spaces.” </em>\r\n
              \r\n
              The deal was financed by a banking consortium composed of Natixis, Bred and Scor. An application will be filed for a green loan certification by the Climate Bond Initiative, testifying that the financed asset is compatible with the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. This innovative certification is directly in line with LBO France’s ESG commitments, which in relation to real estate has included the signing in late 2016 of the Public and Private Office Building Energy Efficiency Charter initiated by the French Sustainable Building Plan.\r\n
              \r\n
              Nexity and Codic were assisted at the beginning of this deal by<strong> CACIB</strong>, which funded the acquisition of the land and demolitions of previous buildings. <strong>BNP Paribas CIB</strong> then assisted the developers in the divestment to LBO France in the form of a construction progress loan and the issuance of guarantees.\r\n
              \r\n
              The deal was conducted by the BNP Paribas Real Estate investment department as part of a coexclusive mandate with NCT. LBO France (Stéphanie CASCIOLA, Julien ROUILLON) was advised by the notary firm MONASSIER &amp; ASSOCIES (Sylvie BURTHE-MIQUE), the SEKRI VALENTIN ZERROUK (Pierre-Emmanuel CHEVALIER) and KRAMER LEVIN (Pierre APPREMONT) firms, and ROM (Hervé ROUX, Stéphane DINGOYAN) as technical auditor and ACA (Assistance to the contracting authority).

              <strong>Paris, 12 June 2018</strong> – LBO France has acquired a majority stake in My Media Group, the top independent French media buying agency and the sixth-largest overall. Anthony Ravau and David Ringrave, co-founders and Managers of My Media, plan to leverage on this operation to accelerate the group’s expansion in France and internationally.\r\n
              \r\n
              Since it was founded in 2005, My Media has developed specific know-how in optimising TV-toWeb media campaigns (i.e., the impact of offline communication, mainly television, on online traffic) and search engine optimisation (SEO) through Search Foresight, which is the leader in SEO consultancy in France.\r\n
              \r\n
              My Media Group currently has more than 500 clients, for whom it manages each year more than 1 billion euros gross media space. As a leader in developing media strategies directly targeting customer acquisition, the company is particularly well established in e-commerce, where it has market share of more than 40% with pure players, including Trivago, Groupon, Just Eat, Showroomprivé, Vistaprint and Meilleurtaux. My Media also orchestrates consultancy and space buying for several benchmark players, such as Système U, Feu Vert, GIFI, Michel et Augustin and Labeyrie.\r\n
              \r\n
              My Media Group employs 130 persons and has successfully integrated several acquisitions, including Mediatop, Geo Vista, Libre et Change, Synodiance and Pygmalion Media.\r\n
              \r\n
              My Media Group has become a benchmark player in just a few years on this market. It intends to accelerate its development, based on both organic growth prospects and an ambitious acquisition strategy in France and internationally.\r\n
              \r\n
              <em>“For this seventh investment by our White Knight IX fund, we have chosen a company boasting both an excellent track record of non-stop, multi-year outperformance and a solid outlook for the future. We are pleased to assist the company’s founders in their ambitious development plans, which are being driven by both strong organic growth potential and some very nice external growth opportunities”</em>, said <strong>Thomas Boulman, Partner at LBO France.</strong>\r\n
              \r\n
              <em> “We have decided to seek the backing of a new, top-tier partner to continue our development strategy while keeping our independent status. We share the same values with Thomas (Boulman)’s demanding, dynamic and ambitious team. This deal is a major step forward for My Media. Having an investor like LBO France on board will allow us to accelerate My Media’s development against a backdrop of strengthened competition for traditional advertising groups”</em>, said <strong>Anthony Ravau, group President and founder. </strong>\r\n

              SCOR Investment Partners, the SCOR group’s portfolio management company, announces the launch of its eighth leveraged loans fund - SCOR MID MARKET LOANS - in partnership with LBO France, one of the pioneers of private equity in France.\r\n
              \r\n
              The SCOR MID MARKET fund, which is open to subscriptions and seeks to raise EUR 300 million, focuses on European mid-market loans and invests primarily in first lien secured loans issued by European companies. The fund aims to deliver an annual return of 3-month Euribor + 400bps. Loans will be backed by covenants and benefit from structures with elevated equity protection.\r\n
              \r\n
              &nbsp;\r\n
              \r\n
              In identifying financing opportunities in companies with EBITDA of less than EUR 20 million for this new fund, SCOR Investment Partners works alongside LBO France to benefit from their market and sourcing expertise. LBO France acts as investment advisor.\r\n
              \r\n
              Institutional investors benefit from the combined expertise of SCOR Investment Partners, which manages more than EUR 1.3 billion of this asset class through eight leveraged loan funds, and LBO France, which has been investing in companies with an enterprise value of less than EUR 100 million for 15 years and has been operating in the French private equity market for more than 30 years.\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong> François de Varenne, Chief Executive Officer of SCOR Investment Partners</strong>, comments:<em> « Launching the SCOR MID MARKET LOANS fund enables us to grant our investors access to sources of recurring returns within a risk-controlled framework. The European leverage loan mid-market offers an attractive yield premium and financing structures which remain conservative. Partnering with a key player such as LBO France reinforces our commitment to small and mid-size French companies. » </em>\r\n
              \r\n
              <strong>Robert Daussun, President of LBO France</strong>, adds: <em>« By combining the strengths and expertise of SCOR Investment Partners and LBO France, we will offer investors access to a wide range of companies and increase financing opportunities in this deep yet exclusive market segment. Together, SCOR Investment Partners and LBO France continuously innovate to fully participate in the financing of the real economy and to support the growth and internationalization of both well-established companies with strong fundamentals, and companies at the cutting edge of technology with a solid growth potential. Our ambition is to be, together and even better than yesterday, the key partners of tomorrow’s European success stories. »</em>\r\n

          <strong>Paris, September 5th, 2018</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          As part of its program of investment in unlisted assets in the French economy, the FRR launched on June 15, 2017 a competitive procedure with negotiation to select several asset managers who, as part of a discretionary management mandate, will each be responsible for creating and managing a dedicated fund for the FRR.\r\n
          \r\n
          These funds will be invested exclusively in the growth capital segment. These investments will mainly finance SMEs, and possibly very small or medium-sized companies, whose head office or main activity is located in France.\r\n
          \r\n
          Following this selection process, the FRR has decided to accept the proposals from these following asset managers:\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>AZULIS CAPITAL</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong> LBO FRANCE GESTION</strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong> ISATIS CAPITAL </strong>\r\n
          \r\n
          The mandates are awarded for ten (10) years and are renewable twice for one (1) year.\r\n
          \r\n
          The FRR was very pleased with the number and quality of proposals received and extends its thanks to all the participants.\r\n
          \r\n
          *****\r\n
          \r\n
          The FRR is a public administrative establishment of the State created by law in 2001. Governed by a Supervisory Board and Executive Board, its mission is to manage the funds allocated to it until 31 December 2010 in order to build up reserves to contribute to the longterm sustainability of the old-age pension system.\r\n

          <strong>Paris, July 24 2018</strong> – LBO France, via its White Stone funds, has acquired Network I, an office building of about 21,000 sqm, from its developers, Codic and Nexity. Network I is located in a new office park in Bagneux, a services oriented suburb just south of Paris which will be served by metro line 4 and the future line 15 of the subway. The deal takes the form of a “<em>VEFA</em>” (i.e., purchase of a property not yet completed).\r\n
          \r\n
          Stéphanie Casciola, Head of Real Estate at LBO France said: “This deal comes on top of the acquisition of our 15-hectare site in Bagneux, called Les Mathurins, and demonstrates our confidence in Bagneux’s strong potential, mainly in its strategic positioning at the heart of the “Grand Paris” (Greater Paris) transportation expansion project. The Network I building is particularly well located, only 2 km from Porte d’Orléans, 300 m from the future metro station of line 4 / line 15 of the Grand Paris Express, and at the heart of the ZAC Eco Quartier Victor Hugo, a booming office cluster that is already home to several well-known companies and is expanding very fast.”\r\n
          \r\n
          The construction of Network I has already begun and is to be delivered during the first quarter of 2020. 50% of the areas is already pre-let to <strong>Mondadori Magazine France</strong>, through a firm 10-year lease. The Attica-style project, designed by the <strong>Brenac &amp; Gonzalez </strong>architectural firm, is composed of eight office floors, three basement levels, two restaurants and a cafeteria, and it can accommodate 1800 people. The project will benefit from the BREEAM (“Excellent”) and HQE (“Excellent”) environmental certifications and labels and will comply with the RT 2012 –30% standards.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong> Julien Rouillon, Director, LBO France,</strong> asserted: <em>“In addition to its many environmental certifications, this development features high-quality amenities designed to serve users and their well-being, with highquality lighting via transparent façades. Special attention has also been given to shared areas, with more than 1200 sqm of accessible green areas, a rational and efficient configuration of open spaces, Wiredscore-certified (Platinum level) strong connectivity of working spaces, and a full offering of services, including 1500 sqm of food service spaces and a dedicated concierge.” </em>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Christophe Sirot, Chief Executive Officer of Codic France</strong>, said: <em>“We are very pleased with this new stage in our Network project. Thanks to its in-depth knowledge of Bagneux and its confidence in the sector’s attractiveness, LBO France is the ideal partner to jointly pursue the successful execution of this project. With Mondadori already signed on, Network benefits from a very robust market in Paris’ near southern suburbs and has all the features to win over new tenants…”</em>.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Yann Le Gall, Deputy CEO of Codic France</strong>, added:<em> “Real estate is now the best way to manage change in corporate organisational set-ups. In addition to its ambitious architecture, Network has been designed to meet the needs of users seeking flexibility, to integrate new office uses and to create connected thirdspaces such as rooftops, loggias, gardens and reversible spaces.” </em>\r\n
          \r\n
          The deal was financed by a banking consortium composed of Natixis, Bred and Scor. An application will be filed for a green loan certification by the Climate Bond Initiative, testifying that the financed asset is compatible with the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. This innovative certification is directly in line with LBO France’s ESG commitments, which in relation to real estate has included the signing in late 2016 of the Public and Private Office Building Energy Efficiency Charter initiated by the French Sustainable Building Plan.\r\n
          \r\n
          Nexity and Codic were assisted at the beginning of this deal by<strong> CACIB</strong>, which funded the acquisition of the land and demolitions of previous buildings. <strong>BNP Paribas CIB</strong> then assisted the developers in the divestment to LBO France in the form of a construction progress loan and the issuance of guarantees.\r\n
          \r\n
          The deal was conducted by the BNP Paribas Real Estate investment department as part of a coexclusive mandate with NCT. LBO France (Stéphanie CASCIOLA, Julien ROUILLON) was advised by the notary firm MONASSIER &amp; ASSOCIES (Sylvie BURTHE-MIQUE), the SEKRI VALENTIN ZERROUK (Pierre-Emmanuel CHEVALIER) and KRAMER LEVIN (Pierre APPREMONT) firms, and ROM (Hervé ROUX, Stéphane DINGOYAN) as technical auditor and ACA (Assistance to the contracting authority). The sellers, NEXITY and CODIC, were advised by TSD NOTAIRES (notaries), BRUN CESSAC AVOCATS ASSOCIES (attorneys) and LPA (financial structuring).\r\n
          \r\n

          <strong>Paris, 12 June 2018</strong> – LBO France has acquired a majority stake in My Media Group, the top independent French media buying agency and the sixth-largest overall. Anthony Ravau and David Ringrave, co-founders and Managers of My Media, plan to leverage on this operation to accelerate the group’s expansion in France and internationally.\r\n
          \r\n
          Since it was founded in 2005, My Media has developed specific know-how in optimising TV-toWeb media campaigns (i.e., the impact of offline communication, mainly television, on online traffic) and search engine optimisation (SEO) through Search Foresight, which is the leader in SEO consultancy in France.\r\n
          \r\n
          My Media Group currently has more than 500 clients, for whom it manages each year more than 1 billion euros gross media space. As a leader in developing media strategies directly targeting customer acquisition, the company is particularly well established in e-commerce, where it has market share of more than 40% with pure players, including Trivago, Groupon, Just Eat, Showroomprivé, Vistaprint and Meilleurtaux. My Media also orchestrates consultancy and space buying for several benchmark players, such as Système U, Feu Vert, GIFI, Michel et Augustin and Labeyrie.\r\n
          \r\n
          My Media Group employs 130 persons and has successfully integrated several acquisitions, including Mediatop, Geo Vista, Libre et Change, Synodiance and Pygmalion Media.\r\n
          \r\n
          My Media Group has become a benchmark player in just a few years on this market. It intends to accelerate its development, based on both organic growth prospects and an ambitious acquisition strategy in France and internationally.\r\n
          \r\n
          <em>“For this seventh investment by our White Knight IX fund, we have chosen a company boasting both an excellent track record of non-stop, multi-year outperformance and a solid outlook for the future. We are pleased to assist the company’s founders in their ambitious development plans, which are being driven by both strong organic growth potential and some very nice external growth opportunities”</em>, said <strong>Thomas Boulman, Partner at LBO France.</strong>\r\n

          \r\n
          <em>“I’m delighted to announce that our initial public offering - a defining moment in Voluntis’ development - has been completed successfully on Euronext Paris. It will pave the way for our expansion, including in the United States where we plan to expand our sales coverage significantly. It will also consolidate our digital therapeutics portfolio, including the continued development of our proprietary multi-cancer solution. The funds we raised will boost our ability to complete the large-scale roll out of next-generation healthcare solutions that personalize treatment and support patients on a daily basis with the management of their illness”</em>, commented <strong>Pierre Leurent, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Voluntis</strong>. <em>“We wish to thank our longstanding shareholders, our partner Sanofi and our new shareholders for their participation in this fundraising.”</em>\r\n
          \r\n
          The IPO, which was structured as a global offer (the “<strong>Offer</strong>”), consisting of a public offering in France in the form of an open-price offer (“<strong>OPO</strong>”) and a global placement chiefly intended for institutional investors in France and some other countries (the “<strong>Global Placement</strong>”), raised €30.1m through a capital increase.\r\n
          \r\n
          The price applicable to the Global Placement and the OPO was set at €14.0 per share, representing the bottom of the Offer’s tightened indicative price range, as announced in the Company’s press release dated May 28, 2018.\r\n

          SCOR Investment Partners, the SCOR group’s portfolio management company, announces the launch of its eighth leveraged loans fund - SCOR MID MARKET LOANS - in partnership with LBO France, one of the pioneers of private equity in France.\r\n
          \r\n
          The SCOR MID MARKET fund, which is open to subscriptions and seeks to raise EUR 300 million, focuses on European mid-market loans and invests primarily in first lien secured loans issued by European companies. The fund aims to deliver an annual return of 3-month Euribor + 400bps. Loans will be backed by covenants and benefit from structures with elevated equity protection.\r\n
          \r\n
          &nbsp;\r\n
          \r\n
          In identifying financing opportunities in companies with EBITDA of less than EUR 20 million for this new fund, SCOR Investment Partners works alongside LBO France to benefit from their market and sourcing expertise. LBO France acts as investment advisor.\r\n
          \r\n
          Institutional investors benefit from the combined expertise of SCOR Investment Partners, which manages more than EUR 1.3 billion of this asset class through eight leveraged loan funds, and LBO France, which has been investing in companies with an enterprise value of less than EUR 100 million for 15 years and has been operating in the French private equity market for more than 30 years.\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong> François de Varenne, Chief Executive Officer of SCOR Investment Partners</strong>, comments:<em> « Launching the SCOR MID MARKET LOANS fund enables us to grant our investors access to sources of recurring returns within a risk-controlled framework. The European leverage loan mid-market offers an attractive yield premium and financing structures which remain conservative. Partnering with a key player such as LBO France reinforces our commitment to small and mid-size French companies. » </em>\r\n
          \r\n
          <strong>Robert Daussun, President of LBO France</strong>, adds: <em>« By combining the strengths and expertise of SCOR Investment Partners and LBO France, we will offer investors access to a wide range of companies and increase financing opportunities in this deep yet exclusive market segment. Together, SCOR Investment Partners and LBO France continuously innovate to fully participate in the financing of the real economy and to support the growth and internationalization of both well-established companies with strong fundamentals, and companies at the cutting edge of technology with a solid growth potential. Our ambition is to be, together and even better than yesterday, the key partners of tomorrow’s European success stories. »</em>\r\n
