Pursuant to the provisions of article 227 of the
Consolidated Text of the Securities Market Act, approved by the Legislative Royal Decree 4/2015, of 23 October, Grifols, S.A. ("Grifols")
hereby informs about the following
OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION
As a continuation of the Other Relevant Information
note dated 11 April 2022, Grifols informs that, having obtained all regulatory approvals, it has closed the share and purchase agreement
with Tiancheng International Investment Limited to acquire all the existing share capital of Tiancheng (Germany) Pharmaceutical Holdings
AG ("HoldCo"), which owns 89.88% of the ordinary shares and 1.08% of the preferred shares of Biotest AG ("Biotest").
At the same time, the voluntary takeover launched by Grifols to acquire the remaining ordinary and preferred shares has ended and payment
has been settled.
With the closing of the transaction, Grifols has
paid EUR 1,091 million to Tiancheng International Investment Limited, which is composed of (i) 17,783,776 ordinary shares of Biotest valued
at EUR 43.00 per share; (ii) 214,581 Biotest preferred shares valued at EUR 37.00 per share, and (iii) a receivable loan granted by HoldCo
to Biotest in the amount of EUR 318 million. On the other side, the closing of the voluntary takeover bid has resulted in the payment
of EUR 362 million for 1,250,298 ordinary shares and 8,340,577 preferred shares.
Following completion of the takeover and
of the acquisition of the HoldCo, Grifols controls 96.20% of the voting rights of Biotest and holds 69.72% of its share capital.
The Biotest acquisition is a strategic and transformational
transaction that will accelerate Grifols' growth and innovation. Likewise, it will contribute to expand and diversify Grifols' plasma
supply, strengthening its operations and revenues in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and support the company's economic performance.
Furthermore, it enables Grifols and Biotest to jointly move forward to globally increase the availability of plasma-derived therapies
for the benefit of patients, while allowing Grifols to strengthen its position by improving and complementing its operational, industrial
and scientific capabilities, among others.
