Harvest Tech expands European reach with Frankfurt listing

• Harvest Tech lists its shares for trading on the Frankfurt Open Market
• Secondary listing aims to open door to wider base of European institutional and retail investors
• Strong European investor interest in defence, cybersecurity, aerospace and telecommunications – core markets for Harvest Tech

Special Report: Tech-solutions provider Harvest Technology Group has started trading in Germany on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, as it looks to opens the door to a wider base of investors and boost the company’s visibility in key European markets.

Harvest Technology Group (ASX:HTG) has announced it has started trading its shares on the Frankfurt Open Market (FOE) segment of the FWB under the code N30.

HTG said listing on the FOE was a significant milestone and offered access to one of the world’s largest capital markets, significantly increasing exposure to institutional plus retail investors across Europe.

The company joins other ASX-listed technology companies with similar listings on the FOE, including Droneshield (ASX:DRO) and Brainchip Holdings (ASX: BRN).

Strong European investor interest in HTG’s core markets

HTG said there was strong European investor interest in defence, cybersecurity, aerospace, and telecommunications, which were core markets for the company.

It will undertake a targeted European investor engagement program in June 2025, tied in with multiple customer visits across key verticals.

The program will include high-level engagement with CEOs and senior decision makers, highlighting HTG’s flagship Nodestream platform and its relevance to critical industry sectors including defence, telecommunications, maritime and aerospace sectors.

HTG is continuing to expand its global presence and solidify its position as a key enabler of secure, low-bandwidth, high-integrity remote communications and control.

Nodestream enables secure transmission of video, audio and data in areas with unstable connections and limited bandwidth.

The solution requires no complicated setup and consolidates media from multiple devices into a single, user-friendly platform.

The company said its proprietary technologies – including Nodestream – were increasingly deployed across European-based defence and maritime operations and critical infrastructure.

Natural progression of growth strategy

With many of HTG’s current and prospective customers headquartered in Europe, the company’s decision to register on the FOE as a secondary trading venue is strategically aligned with its growth objectives. 

“Listing our shares for trading on the FOE of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is a natural next step in HTG’s global growth objective,” CEO Ilario Faenza said.

“Europe represents a significant portion of our existing customer base and is a key focus region for upcoming deployments,” he said.

“The Frankfurt Stock Exchange provides an ideal gateway to reach investors who understand the relevance of our technologies in defence, satellite connectivity.”
