Orca Capital secures sub-capitals in new acquisition

Sub Capitals, a pioneering AI-powered stock trading startup, has announced that it has been acquired by Orca Capital AG. The financial details of the acquisition remain undisclosed.

The move comes as Sub Capitals withdraws its precautionary insolvency filing, marking a significant milestone in the company's journey. Co-founders Marius Siegert and Marc Schmid will remain with the company to implement the growth strategy, while co-founder Franz Liebermann will pursue other projects.

Orca Capital AG, which was Sub Capitals' first customer and second-largest investor, will now lead the company. Orca Capital's new CEO, Christoph Dichtl, will take charge of Sub Capitals.

The acquisition allows Sub Capitals to work more closely with its reference clients, including Orca Capital, for future growth. Sub Capitals has already worked with Orca Capital as a customer and second-largest investor, making this a strategic partnership that both parties are eager to explore.

Sub Capitals has been committed to using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in stock trading. Since 2024, the startup has supported approximately 15 financial institutions in five countries with its AI models for risk management. The acquisition opens up new prospects for the future of Sub Capitals, as the technology developed by the company will be further strategically developed.

Marius Siegert, one of the co-founders, expressed satisfaction with the acquisition, stating that Orca Capital AG is a strong strategic partner. He emphasized that with the new majority investor, they found a strong strategic partner who shares their vision and can provide financial backing.

The acquisition provides a sustainable solution for Sub Capitals, ensuring its continued focus on technology and business operations. Sub Capitals will collaborate more closely with selected reference clients, including Orca Capital, to implement its growth strategy.

This move comes as the company's founders actively sought a strategic partner who shared their vision. With Orca Capital AG on board, Sub Capitals looks forward to a bright and promising future. The acquisition marks the end of Sub Capitals' precautionary insolvency filing and the beginning of a new chapter in its journey.
