PRESS RELEASE 

Brockhaus Technologies AG: Realignment of IHSE management; Dr. Thomas Niessen will assume his role as the new CEO in May 2026 and together with Frank Breitenfelder, will take over the leadership of the IHSE Group

Frankfurt am Main, April 30, 2026. The wholly owned subsidiary of Brockhaus Technologies AG (ISIN: DE000A2GSU42, “BKHT” or the “Company”), IHSE, has realigned its management team and completed the management transformation initiated in 2025. This represents an important strategic step in the corporate group’s ongoing development. Dr. Thomas Niessen will assume his role as the new CEO of IHSE in May 2026. The experienced manager and expert in industrial automation and networking technology previously held global roles at Belden Inc., including VP R&D as well as VP Change Management and VP Product Management in the Automation Solutions segment. He will be supported by Frank Breitenfelder as CFO, who joined IHSE’s management team a year ago.

With its new management team and a strong pipeline of product innovations, IHSE is well positioned for 2026 and beyond. IHSE’s high-performance and reliable KVM technology ensures highly secure and nearly latency-free data transmission in mission-critical application areas. By meeting stringent security standards and obtaining relevant certifications, IHSE has benefited since last year from strongly growing business in the Government & Defense sector (approx. 43% of revenue in 2025). This is a direct result of the decision made around three years ago to invest specifically in certifications and business development activities in the defense sector.
