REG

"First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to existing shareholders who have chosen to participate in the Rights Issue and welcome new shareholders who have chosen to join the continued journey towards the vision of minimally invasive laser ablation, performed with CLS products, being established as an effective standard treatment and a safer alternative to surgery, at first within urology and neurosurgery. We have established a good position for continued market penetration and commercialization. We are facing an exciting time where we hope to reach a positive cash flow measured as EBITDA in 2025 with sales revenues corresponding to SEK 100 million. Through the Rights Issue, we have also secured capital to significantly improve our capital structure via full repayment of loans and we are now focusing on the commercialization of our products in urology and neurosurgery." says CLS CEO Dan J. Mogren.

 

Allocation, subscription, and payment

The Rights Issue subscribed to a total of approximately SEK 98.9 million, including pre-subscription commitments of approximately SEK 2.8 million, equivalent to a subscription rate of approximately 72.9 percent. Additionally, underwriting commitments of approximately SEK 15.3 million have been activated. The total subscription rate (including underwriting commitments) thus amounts to approximately 84 percent, meaning that CLS receives approximately SEK 114.2 million before issue costs. The issue costs amount to approximately SEK 24.5 million (of which approximately SEK 14.1 million refers to underwriting commitment remunerations, provided that all underwriters choose to receive remuneration in cash).

 

Through the Rights Issue, a total of 1,141,558,050 B-shares and 228,311,610 warrants of series TO 6 B are issued. A total of 38,238,990 units (corresponding to approximately SEK 95.6 million) were subscribed for with the support of unit rights. A decision on the allocation of units is expected to formally take place on July 6, 2023 in accordance with the principles of allocation described in the prospectus published by the Company on June 12, 2023. Those allocated units without preferential rights will receive settlement notes, which are scheduled to be sent around July 6, 2023. Allocated units without preferential rights shall be paid in accordance with the instructions on the settlement note.

 

 

Remuneration for underwriting commitments

For bottom-up underwriting commitments, a remuneration of twelve (12) percent of the amount guaranteed will be provided in form of cash or fourteen (14) percent of the amount guaranteed in form of units. For top-level underwriting commitments, a remuneration of sixteen (16) percent of the amount guaranteed will be provided in the form of cash or eighteen (18) percent of the amount guaranteed in the form of units. In case the guarantors choose remuneration in the form of units, these will be provided by a directed offset issue. The subscription price of any units issued as remuneration is set at SEK 2.50 per unit, corresponding to the established subscription price in the completed Rights Issue.

 

Any decision on a directed offset issue to the guarantors will be announced via a separate press release.

 

Number of shares and share capital

When the Rights Issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the number of B-shares in CLS will have increased by 1,141,558,050, from 162,244,439 B-shares to 1,303,802,489 B-shares. The total number of shares in the Company will thus amount to 1,304,402,489 shares (of which 600,000 A shares).

 

In accordance with the resolution to reduce the share capital at the extraordinary general meeting on June 8, 2023, the share capital will be reduced by approximately SEK 105,594,120 corresponding to the share capital increase in the Rights Issue. Upon registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the Company's share capital will thus amount to approximately SEK 15,063,110.69.

 

Trading in paid subscribed units (BTU)

Trading in BTU is taking place on Nasdaq First North Growth Market until the Rights Issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office. This registration is expected to take place around July 24, 2023.

 

Summarized terms for TO 6 B

The newly issued warrants of series TO 6 B are planned to be traded on Nasdaq First North Growth Market as soon as the Swedish Companies Registration Office has registered the Rights Issue. Each warrant of series TO 6 B entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new B-share in CLS during the period from and including January 23, 2024 to and including February 6, 2024.

The subscription price shall be rounded to the nearest whole Swedish öre and shall not exceed SEK 0.20 per new B-share and not be less than the share's quota value.
