Verve Group SE Starts Trading on the Regulated Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the Ticker Symbol "VRV"

Stockholm, May 12, 2025 – With today’s launch of trading on the Regulated Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Verve Group SE (ISIN: SE0018538068) successfully completes its uplisting from the Open Market. The shares will now be traded under the new ticker symbol "VRV."

Verve Group SE: Uplisting after Seven Years of Strong Growth and Corporate Maturity

Verve has been publicly listed for seven years, during which it has achieved dynamic growth, with a revenue CAGR of ~38% and an EBITDA CAGR of ~39%. The company has also consistently strengthened its governance structures. In 2024, revenues amounted to EUR 437 million, and adj. EBITDA totaled EUR 133 million. Today, Verve is a fast-growing yet mature global company, with over 800 employees, meeting the highest standards of transparency and corporate governance.

Verve Group SE: Expanding Investor Base and Liquidity with Uplisting to Regulated Market

The uplisting provides Verve with access to a broader investor base, as there are many institutional investors who are only permitted to invest in companies listed on a Regulated Market. The decision to uplist to Frankfurt was deliberate, as the shares are traded in euros - a key factor for many continental European investors seeking to avoid currency risks. At the same time, the shares remain fully fungible and continue to be tradable in Stockholm at the Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market (ticker symbol: “VER”, trading in SEK), making them transferable and accessible across both markets.

In 2025, the average daily trading volume of Verve shares exceeds EUR 2.1 million (combined across Frankfurt and Stockholm). Given this and the anticipated increase in visibility following the uplisting, the company expects that the liquidity will continue to grow.

Verve Group SE: Eyeing SDAX Inclusion to Further Strengthen Visibility and Liquidity

With the move to the Regulated Market and the resulting increase in trading liquidity, Verve expects to be included in prominent indices such as the SDAX in the foreseeable future. The SDAX comprises the 70 largest publicly listed companies below the DAX and MDAX indices and serves as a benchmark for small- and mid-cap institutional investors and ETFs. A future SDAX inclusion would significantly raise Verve’s investor visibility and further enhance the liquidity and attractiveness of its shares.
