Commission File No.: 001-39760

Date: March 16, 2021

On March 16, 2021, eToro Group Ltd. (“eToro”) provided the following email to its shareholders regarding its previously announced proposed business combination with FinTech Acquisition Corp. V (“FinTech”), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 16, 2021, by and among eToro, FinTech and Buttonwood Merger Sub Corp.

Email to eToro Shareholders

Dear Partners,

I’m excited to share that eToro today announced plans to become a publicly traded company through a merger with FinTech Acquisition Corp. V and with the support of major institutional investors including ION Investment Group, Softbank Vision Fund 2, Third Point LLC,  Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC, and Wellington Management. The Company is expected to have an estimated implied equity value of $10.4 billion at closing.

We’ll be happy to see you in an update zoom session tomorrow (Wed, March 17), 6 PM GMT, details to follow. 

FinTech Acquisition is as a SPAC (Special Purpose Acquisition Company). It went public in December 2020 under the ticker FTCV with the intent to identify a fintech company with which to merge. FinTech Acquisition raised $250 million that will be invested in eToro as part of the merger.

While today’s announcement is an important step, it does not yet make eToro a public company, nor does it guarantee that the transaction will close – though we expect to begin trading on the NASDAQ under a new ticker symbol in Q3 2021. 

Going public is the next step in the evolution of eToro, following our fourteen year growth journey and the record-breaking expansion we experience.

· eToro currently has over 20 million registered users and our social community is rapidly expanding. In 2020, eToro added over 5 million new registered users and generated gross revenues of $605 million, representing year-over-year growth of 147%

· This momentum is accelerating in 2021 as a new generation of investors discover the global markets. In  2019, monthly registrations averaged 192,000. In 2020, that grew to 440,000, and in January 2021 alone eToro added more than 1.2 million new registered users to our social network.

· In 2019, eToro executed 8 million trades per month on average. That number grew to 27 million in 2020, and in January 2021 eToro saw more than 75 million trades executed on the eToro platform. 

As a public company, we will continue our mission of empowering people around the globe by providing them with access to capital markets and the tools for them to invest responsibly,  while accelerating our growth by investing in opportunities to scale the business and to capture more of our addressable market. 

Our vision remains unchanged since our founding - to open the global markets so that everyone can trade and invest in a simple and transparent way.  Our priority remains delivering the best possible trading and investing experience to our global community of users.

This transaction not only allows eToro access to capital to execute its growth plans, but also provides liquidity to you, our shareholders, although we hope that you will continue to remain an investor in the company long after we go public. 

The overall estimated implied equity value is expected to be approximately $10.4 billion and eToro shareholders would own approximately 91% of the new public Company. Based on the expected transaction price, this translates into eToro’s existing shares being valued at approximately $9.6 billion upon closing the transaction, assuming no FTCV shareholder redemptions, which reflects a price per share of $448 for every eToro stock you hold . The number of shares that you will actually receive will be converted at a ratio of approximately 44.8 to 1 and will have a value of $10 per share.

This is a momentous moment in eToro’s history, and I would like to thank you for your invaluable support over the years which has made it possible for us to reach this pivotal moment. I am honored and grateful for your partnership and look forward to continuing our shared journey together.

 As always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. 

Looking forward towards our next stage of growth !
