On August 12, 2026, Jumia Technologies AG (the “Company”) entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with the International Finance Corporation (“IFC”), a member of the World Bank Group, pursuant to which IFC agreed to subscribe for 9,057,970 new ordinary bearer shares of the Company to be delivered in the form of American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), each ADS representing two ordinary shares, for an aggregate investment amount of approximately US$25 million. Concurrently, the Company entered into separate Share Purchase Agreements (each, a “Share Purchase Agreement”), each dated August 12, 2026, with Axian, one of the Company’s largest shareholders, as well as other investors (collectively, the “Other Investors”), pursuant to which the Other Investors agreed to purchase 4,528,983 new ADSs from the Company, for an aggregate investment amount of approximately US$25 million. Under the Share Purchase Agreements, certain of the Other Investors have been granted registration rights with respect to the ADSs they have agreed to purchase. The transactions are being effected pursuant to a capital increase from the Company’s authorized capital 2026/I under Section 4(2) of the Company’s Articles of Association, with the statutory subscription rights of existing shareholders excluded.

 

In connection with the Subscription Agreement, on August 12, 2026, the Company entered into a Policy Agreement with IFC (the “Policy Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to comply with certain environmental, social, and governance requirements customary for investments by IFC, including compliance with IFC’s performance standards, implementation of an agreed environmental and social action plan, adherence to IFC’s exclusion list and anti-corruption guidelines, and certain other reporting and information covenants.

 

Overall, the IFC and the Other Investors agreed to purchase 9,057,968 ADSs at a price of US$5.52 per ADS, resulting in expected gross proceeds to Jumia of US$50 million. The transactions are expected to close in the second half of August 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the transactions to support its next phase of growth, enhance efficiency across its core African markets and strengthen its integrated marketplace and logistics network.

 

The ADSs and the underlying ordinary shares have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and are being offered and sold in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the Subscription Agreement, the Share Purchase Agreements and the Policy Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such agreements. A copy of the Subscription Agreement, including the form of Policy Agreement attached thereto, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. A copy of the form of Share Purchase Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2.
