Alantra launches its second growth vehicle to invest in the energy transition. Alantra has launched Klima Energy Transition Fund II ("Klima II"), the second investment vehicle under its growth strategy focused on the energy transition, through which the asset manager aims to raise €370 million, with a maximum target size of €500 million. The new fund builds on the strategy developed by Klima in recent years and raises the ambition of its predecessor, which raised €210 million, €60 million above its initial target. The new fund has received approval from the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), with BNP Paribas acting as depositary and Deloitte as auditor. Klima II is structured through Klima Energy Transition Fund Families II, SCR, S.A., a Spanish private equity vehicle managed by Alantra Energy Transition, S.G.E.I.C., S.A., and has a parallel fund, Klima Energy Transition Fund II, F.C.R. The vehicle is structured as an Article 9 financial product under the SFDR, as it pursues an environmental sustainable investment objective. The strategy is primarily aimed at growth companies with proven technologies, established business models and strong expansion potential. The fund expects to make investments of between €10 million and €30 million per company, building a diversified portfolio of approximately 12 to 15 investments. The vehicle will primarily invest in B2B companies involved in the transformation of the energy system and the decarbonisation of the economy. Its main areas of focus include decarbonised power generation, energy storage, smart grids and infrastructure, energy efficiency, sustainable transportation, and energy and carbon markets. The investment focus will be primarily on Europe, although the vehicle may allocate up to 20% of invested capital to opportunities in North America, a percentage that may be increased by a further five percentage points with the approval of the Supervisory Committee. Investments in growth companies Klima II will focus on unlisted companies and will primarily make minority investments through equity, preferred shares, convertible instruments and other structures that provide exposure to the growth of portfolio companies. The strategy is particularly focused on companies at Series B and later financing stages, with the ability to generate recurring commercial revenues and expectations of achieving positive EBITDA within three years of the investment. Selectively, the fund may also invest in earlier-stage companies developing solutions in less mature segments of the energy transition. As a general rule, the fund will not acquire controlling stakes in its portfolio companies. Investment in any single portfolio company will normally be limited to 10% of total commitments, although this limit may be increased to 15% with the approval of the Supervisory Committee. The vehicle already has investment commitments, including a €70 million commitment from the European Investment Fund (EIF). The strategy also includes investment commitments in small and medium-sized enterprises in the European Union and EFTA countries, in line with certain commitments made by institutional investors. A fund focused on decarbonisation Sustainability is a central element of Klima's strategy. The vehicle will invest in companies whose activities make a clear contribution to decarbonisation and the transition towards an energy system based on clean and low-carbon energy sources. The investment process incorporates ESG analysis from the initial screening stage, as well as specific due diligence for each transaction. The analysis includes a review of companies' sustainability practices, the identification of material issues and an assessment of their contribution to the environmental objectives of the EU Taxonomy, as well as compliance with the "do no significant harm" principle. Once an investment has been made, Klima establishes impact indicators and measurable targets for portfolio companies and monitors their performance throughout the holding period. The investment team may also work with management teams through ongoing dialogue, participation on boards of directors and the exercise of its rights as a shareholder. One of the vehicle's distinguishing features is the link between part of the management team's remuneration and the achievement of its impact objectives. Specifically, 30% of the carried interest is linked to the collective achievement of the impact KPIs defined for the portfolio companies. The fund also provides for the development of an impact thesis for between 70% and 100% of its investments, as well as improvements in the climate impact indicators established for portfolio companies during the investment period. Continuing Klima's strategy The launch of Klima II marks another step in the development of Alantra's investment strategy in the energy transition space and forms part of the firm's efforts to expand and diversify its capabilities as an asset manager. The new vehicle builds on the experience accumulated by the Klima team investing in companies involved in the energy transition, as well as its network of sector and operating partners across the European energy transition ecosystem. The strategy provides for an initial five-year investment period, extendable by one year, while the vehicle will have a total life of 10 years from the first closing, with the possibility of two consecutive one-year extensions. The minimum investment commitment is €1 million, and the initial placement period will run for 18 months from the registration of the company with the CNMV, with the possibility of extending it by an additional six months. The vehicle will be targeted at professional investors and other investors who meet the requirements established under Spanish private equity regulations. With this second fund, Alantra aims to expand the capacity of its energy transition platform to support the growth of companies developing technologies and solutions designed to transform the energy system, combining the financial growth potential of its portfolio companies with specific climate impact objectives.

Madrid, 04 August 2026 - Alantra Private Equity ("Alantra PE") has acquired a majority stake in Deudafix, one of Spain's leading providers of technology-enabled solutions for debt management and other financial services for individuals. The investment marks the beginning of a long-term partnership between Alantra PE and Deudafix co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Matthew Osborn, who will continue to lead the company while retaining a significant equity stake. Axon Partners Group, through its Axon Innovation Growth Fund, was also an investor in Deudafix and has sold its stake as part of this transaction. Founded in 2019, Deudafix helps thousands of individuals regain financial stability through technology-enabled debt management, restructuring solutions, and complementary financial products and services. Today, the company generates c.€40mn in annual revenue, employs more than 250 professionals and serves tens of thousands of customers each year.

Alantra PE will support Deudafix's next phase of growth through investment in artificial intelligence and automation, the expansion of its debt management platform, the launch of complementary financial products and services, selective acquisitions, and international expansion, initially focused on Southern Europe.
