  When selecting technology companies for acquisition, LTH Ventures follows specific criteria, which includetargeting mature software companies that possess their own intellectual property (IP) and teams with a strong commitment to their industry and possess deep knowledge within their respective fields. In addition, it prioritises companies that effectively manage large data sets for valued clients, particularly those belonging to blue-chip organizations with technology that is stable and centred around Microsoft platforms. Finally, it seeks companies with solid financial performance and sustainable revenue streams.

  Similarly, LTH Ventures adheres to specific criteria when acquiring marketplace companies, which include identifying marketplaces that have a technology legacy deficit, which can be addressed by leveraging cutting-edge no-code technology solutions. Also, they must have marketplaces with a stable customer base, with a particular emphasis on B2B or B2B2C models and specialising in highly targeted vertical markets. LTH Ventures leverages the expertise and industry knowledge of the teams behind the marketplace companies and opportunities to leverage AI marketing tools for scaling the company's operations.

  LTH Ventures intends to acquire more SaaS tech companies and online marketplaces and sees a listing on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market as a key support for this strategy going forward by providing an acquisition currency and access to the capital markets.

Background to the Transaction
The Company's Board of Directors assesses that the planned Transaction would be to the benefit of the shareholders in Euroafrica Digital Ventures.

"Given the challenging market conditions for growth companies and our constrained cash flow the Board and management team have worked tirelessly to find a good long term solution for the company and its shareholders. Our businesses Social Content and Kupatana has fantastic future potential, but they require a strong team, funding and time to realise this. The LTH team has a proven track record in delivering impressive results and I am confident that the LTH team will deliver similar results in our shared future. I am also very pleased that key staff of Euroafrica will remain in the new structure. In summary I believe that the new structure have excellent potential at generating future shareholder value.", says Johan Nordin, Chairman of Euroafrica Digital Ventures
