PRESS RELEASE | 25 NOVEMBER 2013

Weng Fine Art AG buys 5.33% stake in Online Pioneer Artnet

As part of its e-commerce strategy, Weng Fine Art AG (WFA) has built up a 5.33% stake in New York and Berlin based Artnet AG. The majority of the shares were acquired on November 14 from the remaining stock of former Artnet shareholder Artis in California, which WFA could buy at a price of EUR1.65 per share. WFA acquired additional shares on the Frankfurt stock exchange and currently holds 300.000 Artnet shares. Through this acquisition, WFA becomes the largest art market related shareholder in Artnet aside from its founder Hans Neuendorf.

Artnet is currently representing the best value of all art online companies. 'Despite its poor capital base and its past problems, Artnet still holds the largest revenue and the most far-reaching brand in the online art market,' said WFA CEO, Rdiger K. Weng, of the strategic importance of this transaction: 'Our investment in Artnet represents the perfect start of our strategic portfolio in the art e-commerce industry. These participations and partnerships will provide support to our own e-commerce activities, which will become an important part of the WFA business in the coming years.'

Provided favorable opportunities arise again, WFA will increase its shareholding in Artnet. A control or takeover of Artnet is currently not part of the plan of Weng Fine Art - but rather to strengthen the collaboration with Artnet in certain segments of its business.
