Prostatype Genomics AB carries out a directed share issue to guarantors following completed rights issue

REG

Prostatype Genomics AB ("Prostatype Genomics" or the "Company") announces that the Company's board, with support of authorization from the extraordinary general meeting on December 7, 2023, has resolved on a directed issue of 44,021,483 shares as guarantee compensation to a number of the guarantors who provided guarantee commitments in the rights issue that the Company carried out during the period December 13, 2023-January 5, 2024, in accordance with the guarantee agreements entered into.

 

The guarantors who provided guarantee commitments in the rights issue had the option of having the compensation paid out in cash or in the form of newly issued shares in the Company, which was previously communicated in connection with the rights issue. In total, fourteen (14) guarantors have chosen to have the guarantee compensation paid out in shares. The company's board has therefore resolved, with the support of the authorization from the extraordinary general meeting on December 7, 2023, to issue 44,021,483 shares as compensation to these guarantors, which will increase the company's share capital by approximately SEK 440,214.83. The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential right were to enable a successful capital acquisition and to fulfill the guarantee agreements entered into.

The shares are issued at a price of SEK 0.04 per share, which corresponds to the subscription price in the rights issue and is therefore considered market-based in the board's assessment. The board has resolved that payment shall be made by offsetting the respective guarantor's claim on the Company. The guarantors' total claim amounts to SEK 1.76 million. When these 44,021,483 shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the number of shares in the Company will amount to 788,286,450 shares, and the Company's share capital to SEK 7,882,864.50. The dilution that accrues as a result of the directed share issue to the guarantors amounts to approximately 5.6 percent after the preferential share issue has been registered.

The company has had no specific costs related to the directed share issue as this takes place as part of the work on the preferential share issue. However, the cash part of the guarantee compensation that the Company needs to pay out is reduced to approximately SEK 0.4 million, from previously SEK 1.9 million.
