(PRESS RELEASE) FRANKFURT, 28-Apr-2023 — /EuropaWire/ — Deutsche Bank (XETRA: DBKGn.DB / NYSE: DB), Germany’s leading multinational investment bank and financial services company, announced today that it has agreed on terms for an all-cash offer to acquire Numis Corporation Plc. Numis is a UK-based corporate broking and advisory house that provides strategic advice and capital market connectivity to 166 retained corporate broking clients, including 64 clients in the FTSE 350.
The acquisition will enable Deutsche Bank to accelerate its Global Hausbank strategy by increasing its engagement with the corporate client segment in the UK. This will allow the bank to become a prominent provider to more than 170 corporate clients for their comprehensive financial and advisory needs.
The Management Board of Deutsche Bank and the Board of Numis consider the acquisition to be an exciting strategic opportunity that will establish a leading force in UK investment banking, with a notable position across corporate broking, strategic advisory (including M&A and growth capital), equity and debt capital markets, and equity research, sales, and execution. The acquisition will also enable Deutsche Bank to leverage its comprehensive and global product offering across the Corporate Bank and the International Private Bank.
Numis shareholders will receive 350 pence per share, valuing Numis at approximately £410 million. Deutsche Bank has received an irrevocable undertaking from Numis’ largest shareholder to vote in favor of the acquisition. The transaction is expected to be EPS accretive from 2024, with an attractive return on regulatory capital consumed. The CET1 ratio impact at closing is expected to be approximately (9) basis points.
The acquisition is expected to be completed in Q4 2023, subject to approval by Numis shareholders and receipt of regulatory approvals.
“This Transaction is strongly aligned to our Global Hausbank strategy and has the potential to unlock significant value within both the Numis and Deutsche Bank franchises. We have been evaluating how to accelerate the growth of our business in the UK and, as a leading UK franchise with a long history of successfully delivering superior client service and growth, Numis represents a compelling strategic fit. The combination enables us to realise greater revenue opportunities across our shared client base and to deepen our engagement with UK corporates. There is strong and complementary cultural alignment between Deutsche Bank and Numis that will propel the combined business to deliver exceptional client service, and we look forward to welcoming Numis management and employees to the Deutsche Bank Group,” commented Fabrizio Campelli, Head of Corporate Bank and Investment Bank at Deutsche Bank.
This press release must be read in conjunction with the Rule 2.7 announcement which is available on the London Stock Exchange RNS and along with other documents related to the transaction on https://investor-relations.db.com.
