3U HOLDING AG buys more Bitcoin

• Additional investment in Bitcoin as part of the short-term treasury strategy
• Group's overall portfolio increases to 331 Bitcoin
• 3U's operating core business remains unaffected

Marburg, July 7, 2025 – 3U HOLDING AG (ISIN DE0005167902; identifier: UUU) has bought more Bitcoin in recent weeks. Specifically, 131 Bitcoin worth EUR 11.8 million were purchased, raising the number of Bitcoin in the Group's portfolio to 331, with an investment volume of more than EUR 23.9 million (as of July 4, 2025). The first acquisitions were made back in the past financial year. As reported on the 2024 statement of financial position, the number of Bitcoin in the company's portfolio totalled 200. This initial position is deemed a long-term investment.

In the current financial year 2025, 3U intends to expand its portfolio in the cryptocurrency as part of its short-term treasury strategy. This decision has no impact on the Group's original core business which will continue to focus on information and telecommunications services, environmentally compatible power generation, online trading in home technology, as well as real estate projects. This year's acquisition of Bitcoin has been made first and foremost for the purpose of investing surplus liquidity in the short to medium term with a view to strengthening the company's financial and strategic position.

“In establishing Bitcoin as a long-term asset reserve, 3U HOLDING AG ranks among the first companies in Europe to deploy its cash and cash equivalents both for financing its operations and for investments in new asset classes,” says CFO Christoph Hellrung. “Together with the acquisitions made in the current financial year, we are following a clearly identifiable trend adopted by technology-oriented, innovative high-growth companies which now increasingly use Bitcoin as a treasury instrument. This decision is rooted in the conviction that it is in our company's best interest to invest in a diversified and promising investment portfolio, especially given the volatile framework conditions,” Hellrung adds.
