04 Dec 2024 18:00 CET

Grenoble, December, 4^th, 2024 - Kalray (Euronext Growth Paris: ALKAL), a leader in hardware and software technologies dedicated to the management and intensive processing of data from the Cloud to the Edge, is launching a strategic review of its assets.

In September, Kalray announced an organizational action plan focused on cost reductions[1], currently being implemented, as well as the addition of a "design-on-demand" for acceleration solutions within its historic business of DPU development ("Data Acceleration & DPU Design").

Today, Kalray announces that its Supervisory Board has authorized the Executive Board, chaired by Eric Baissus, to undertake a comprehensive review of the company's strategic options, including the possibility of a full or partial divestiture of certain Group activities. Kalray is exploring the most suitable legal framework to facilitate these potential operations.

In this context, Kalray has engaged an independent investment bank based in the United States, Woodside Capital Partners International LLC, which specializes in the semiconductor sector and high-growth companies. The bank has been tasked with assisting the company in analysing capital opportunities related to its "Data Acceleration & DPU Design" business.

At this stage, there is no assurance that these efforts will result in any specific outcome. The Company will keep its shareholders informed about the progress of this process.
