Geneva, Switzerland, February 13, 2023 – Ad-Hoc announcement pursuant to Art. 53 of SIX Listing Rules– WISeKey International Holding Ltd (NASDAQ: WKEY / SIX: WIHN) (“WISeKey” or the “Company”), a leading Swiss cybersecurity, AI and IoT company announced today that, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, SEALSQ Corp, it has publicly filed a registration statement on Form F-1 pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ( “SEC”) to effect a partial spin-off of SEALSQ Corp (“SEALSQ”), currently a wholly-owned subsidiary that acts as the holding company for our semiconductor business. SEALSQ is in the process of applying to have its Ordinary Shares listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “LAES”.

WISeKey proposes to distribute 20% of SEALSQ’s outstanding Ordinary Shares, to holders of WISeKey Class B Shares, including holders of WISeKey ADSs, and to holders of WISeKey Class A Shares, in each case as a partial spin-off distribution as a dividend in kind to such holders. WISeKey will initially retain 100% ownership of SEALSQ’s Class F Shares. The transaction is expected to be completed around the beginning of the second quarter of 2023, and remains subject to the applicable approvals and conditions to the transaction being satisfied or waived, including but not limited to, the Form F-1 being declared effective by the SEC, the approval of the listing of SEALSQ’s Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Global Market and the approval of the spin-off distribution by the WISeKey shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting.
