Done.ai Group AB completes a directed share issue raising proceeds of approximately SEK 80 million

REG

Subscription price and use of proceeds

The subscription price corresponds to a premium compared to the closing price of the Company’s share on Nasdaq First North Growth Market 27 May 2025. The subscription price and the number of new shares in the Share Issue were determined through an accelerated bookbuilding procedure (“the “Bookbuild”) carried out by Pareto Securities (“Pareto”) and, accordingly, the Board of Directors deems that the subscription price reflects current market conditions and demand.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Share Issue to continue to execute on M&A opportunities in the near term.

In addition, the Share Issue qualifies as a “Relevant Issue” under several of the Company’s recently executed acquisition or share purchase agreements, thereby permitting the Company to settle a significant portion of the purchase price in newly issued shares in the Company rather than cash. Meeting this threshold was critical to preserving cash for other strategic projects and ensuring the intended risk-allocation between the Company and the sellers, while also providing the sellers an opportunity to benefit from the Company's future growth through an equity stake. RV has undertaken to vote in favour of future share issues in order to issue consideration shares to sellers under the relevant acquisition or share purchase agreements. Following completion of the Share Issue, it is estimated that the Company will issue consideration shares pursuant to already executed M&A agreements equal to a total value of approximately SEK 138.6 million.

Number of shares in the Company after the Share Issue

The Share Issue increases the number of shares in the Company from 67,962,772 shares to 73,677,057 shares, corresponding to a dilution effect of approximately 7.8 per cent of the share capital and the votes, respectively (calculated as the new number of shares and votes divided with the total number of shares and votes in the Company after the Share Issue).

Deviation from shareholders' preferential rights

The Board of Directors made an overall assessment and carefully considered to raise the required capital through a rights issue. The reasons for deviating from the shareholders’ preferential right were (i) that it was of material importance to the Company and for the benefit of all shareholders to carry out a share issue that qualified as a Relevant Issue (as further described in the Company’s press release on 27 May 2025) , (ii) to increase the flexibility of the timing of the share issue to minimize dependency on market conditions as a rights issue would have taken significantly longer to complete and would have entailed a higher exposure to market risks (including the risk for a potentially adverse effect on the share price and possible subscription price or ability to complete a capital raise), and thus allow the Company to pursue a funding window when identified during the ongoing macro-economic uncertainty, (iii) that the Share Issue, in relation to the Company’s market capitalization, was limited in size, which would have entailed that a rights issue process would have been disproportionately burdensome to carry out, since it would have resulted in time-consuming processes for the Company, (iv) to carry out a directed share issue can be made at lower costs and with less complexity and more flexibility than a rights issue, (v) it might not have been possible to obtain underwriting commitments for a rights issue on terms that would have been as favorable for the Company as the commitments for the Share Issue offered by R-Venture AS and the other investors as previously communciated, and (vi) to strengthen the Company’s shareholder base with new Nordic institutional investors in order to enhance the liquidity of the Company’s share. Considering the above, the Board of Directors overall assessment is that a directed share issue with deviation from the shareholders' preferential right was the most favorable alternative for the Company and was in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

Lock-up undertakings

The Company has undertaken not to issue additional shares in the Company during a period ending 90 calendar days after settlement in the Share Issue, which is expected to take place on 2 June 2025. The Company’s lock-up undertaking does not apply in respect of issuances of shares pursuant to employee incentive programs or issuances of shares to be used as consideration for, or financing of, acquisitions of companies or businesses.

In addition, RV as well as all members of the Board and the senior management team of the Company that directly or indirectly own shares have undertaken, subject to certain customary exemptions, not to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares in the Company during the same 90-day period.

Advisers

The Company engaged Pareto Securities to advise on and effect the Share Issue and Bookbuilding. Advokatfirmaet BAHR and Gernandt & Danielsson Advokatbyrå acted as legal advisers to the Company, and Advokatfirman Schjødt acted as legal advisers to Pareto, in connection with the Share Issue.
