WISeKey subsidiary closes $10M SEALSQ investment

SEALSQ is subject to customary lock-up restrictions under the subscription agreement.

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Wisekey International Holding S.A. (WKEY) reported that trading on Nasdaq and SIX began under WQEY in connection with the previously announced redomiciliation from Switzerland to the British Virgin Islands. Its subsidiary WISeSat.Space Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: SAIQ) closed a $10 million private investment in public equity (PIPE) from SEALSQ Corp. on October 1, 2026, concurrently with the closing of its business combination. The purchase price under the subscription agreement was $10.79 per share.

The subscription agreement may result in additional WISeSat.Space ordinary shares being issued to SEALSQ if the volume-weighted average price for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the 60th calendar day after Closing is below the purchase price, subject to a $5.00 floor price. The PIPE and planned collaboration are related party transactions because WISeQey, WISeSat.Space and SEALSQ are affiliated companies in the same corporate family, and Carlos Moreira is Chief Executive Officer of each. Under the planned collaboration, WISeSat.Space would provide satellite capacity and related infrastructure for SEALSQ’s planned quantum and post-quantum services.

4 terms

private investment in public equity (PIPE) financial

"a $10 million private investment in public equity (PIPE)"

A private investment in public equity (PIPE) is when a publicly traded company sells new shares or instruments that can become shares directly to a small group of private investors instead of through the open market. Think of it like a company taking a private loan from a few investors rather than holding a big public sale; it raises cash fast but can dilute existing owners and signal either financial need or strong backing by informed investors.

volume-weighted average price financial

"volume-weighted average price for the 10 consecutive trading days"

Volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is the average price of a stock over a specific time period where each trade is weighted by the number of shares traded, so larger trades influence the average more than small ones. Investors and traders use VWAP as a reference point to judge whether trades are happening at relatively good or poor prices—like checking the average price paid for an item at a market where bulk purchases count more than single-item buys.

related party transactions regulatory

"the PIPE and the planned collaboration ... are related party transactions"

Transactions between a company and people or entities that have close ties to it—such as executives, board members, major shareholders, family members, or related companies—where the parties are not independent. These deals matter to investors because they can create conflicts of interest or hide favorable terms that distort a company’s true profits and risks; think of it like a business buying or selling to a family member instead of using the open market, which can lead to biased prices or undisclosed obligations.

post-quantum cryptography (PQC) technical

"integration of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) security technologies"

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) involves developing new security methods designed to protect digital information against the future threat of powerful quantum computers. These advanced computers could potentially break current encryption techniques, making data vulnerable. For investors, PQC is important because it aims to safeguard sensitive financial and personal information in a world where quantum technology might eventually become a reality.

Exhibit 99.1

WISeQey Begins Trading on Nasdaq and SIX as WQEY

Subsidiary WISeSat.Space Lists on Nasdaq and Receives $10 Million PIPE Investment Led by SEALSQ to Accelerate Space Cybersecurity and Post-Quantum Communications

Geneva, Switzerland, October 5, 2026 -- WISeQey Corp. (formerly known as WISeKey International Holding AG, “WISeQey”) (Nasdaq/SIX: WQEY), a global quantum cybersecurity and space IoT company, today announced that, in connection with its previously announced redomiciliation from Switzerland to the British Virgin Islands, trading on Nasdaq and SIX began today under the new symbol WQEY.

The redomiciliation is not just a new corporate structure. It represents a new chapter in the development of the company as WISeQey pivots to stay ahead of the ever-evolving technology landscape as we enter the Intelligence Age, an era in which billions of intelligent machines will communicate, learn, make decisions, and increasingly act on their own. Electric vehicles will communicate with infrastructure, robots will work with humans and other robots, drones will navigate on their own, and satellites will connect machines across the planet. As these systems become autonomous, they will all need one fundamental thing: trust. WISeQey is building that trusted infrastructure by combining secure semiconductors, digital identity, post-quantum cybersecurity, AI, IoT, and secure satellite communications.

WISeQey also congratulates its subsidiary WISeSat.Space Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: SAIQ) (“WISeSat.Space”), a space technology company, on its Nasdaq listing. WISeSat.Space closed a $10 million private investment in public equity (PIPE) on October 1, 2026, concurrently with the closing of the business combination (the “Closing”), from SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ”), a company that develops and sells semiconductors, PKI, and post-quantum technology hardware and software products. WISeSat.Space and SEALSQ are both subsidiaries of WISeQey. Under the subscription agreement, the purchase price per share, which equaled the redemption price from the business combination, was $10.79 per share. The subscription agreement also includes a price-protection mechanism that may result in the issuance of additional WISeSat.Space ordinary shares to SEALSQ if the volume-weighted average price of WISeSat.Space ordinary shares for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the 60th calendar day after Closing is below the purchase price, subject to a $5.00 floor price. SEALSQ is also subject to customary lock-up restrictions under the subscription agreement.

The PIPE investment provides WISeSat.Space with additional equity capital as it advances its space cybersecurity strategy, including the planned expansion of its satellite infrastructure, and the integration of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) security technologies into its satellites, ground and user-segment architectures.

The WISeSat.Space collaboration with SEALSQ is also expected to support the development of a broader trusted space infrastructure, under which WISeSat.Space would provide satellite capacity and related space and ground infrastructure, while SEALSQ would use that capacity to support the development and delivery of planned quantum and post-quantum services using its secure semiconductor, cryptographic and trusted identity technologies.

Carlos Moreira, CEO of WISeQey, WISeSat.Space and SEALSQ, noted, “This investment brings together two companies within the WISeQey group around a shared goal: making space infrastructure secure against both current and future cyber threats. For WISeSat.Space, it provides capital to advance our next generation of satellites and to build post-quantum security into our space, ground and user segments. For SEALSQ, it opens a path to deliver quantum and post-quantum services using WISeSat.Space’s satellite capacity. Together, secure semiconductors, cryptography and satellite connectivity have the potential to help set new standards for trust and security across the emerging space economy.”

Gwenael Rouy-Poirier, CFO of WISeSat.Space, added, “Capital is only valuable if it translates into execution. This $10 million investment strengthens our balance sheet as we move into the next phase of WISeSat.Space’s development. Our focus is disciplined capital allocation as we advance the satellite infrastructure, post-quantum security integration and industrial partnerships required to build a scalable business. We intend to deploy this capital carefully, prioritizing the investments that move us closer to delivering secure, revenue-generating space services and long-term value for our shareholders.”

The new satellite program is expected to contribute to WISeSat.Space’s broader vision of bringing trust and sovereignty to space transactions, enabling secure interactions among independently operated space and terrestrial systems while strengthening the protection of critical digital assets.

Related Party Transactions

WISeQey, WISeSat.Space, and SEALSQ are affiliated companies part of the same corporate family. Carlos Moreira serves as Chief Executive Officer of each company. Accordingly, the PIPE investment and the planned collaboration between WISeSat.Space and SEALSQ described in this press release are related party transactions.
