Share Capital Considering the corporate restructuring mentioned in note 1.2, in addition to the capital contributions made by Cogna during the periods, and the IPO that took place in 2020, the Company holds Class A shares (issued and sold in the IPO), in addition to Class B shares (owned by Cogna).

On June 22, 2021, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of 382,266 class A common shares, at par value of US$0.00005 per share. As a result, the Company’s share capital on December 31, 2021 totals 83,393,851 shares, of which 64,436,093 Class B shares are owned by the Cogna Group and 18,957,758 are owned by third parties.
