Berlin, September 18, 2020 - OTI Greentech AG (WKN A2TSL2) has reached an agreement in principle with the owners of its joint venture partner KMI Cleaning Solutions, Inc.

OTI will now prepare a term sheet with the exact terms and conditions of the acquisition, with the purchase price to be paid in cash and shares.

The combined, profitable sales volume of both companies is expected to be approximately EUR 13.0 million this year (2019 OTI Greentech AG: EUR. 4.6 million).
