Direct Share Issue and Debt Restructure
Ayima is pleased to announce a directed share issue of 3 MSEK and an extension of an existing loan facility of 2 MSEK at 1% interest per month with an option to convert to shares on or before the termination date of 28 Feb.
The investors in the directed share and loan facility are Gerhard Dal, Modelio Equity and Råsunda Förvaltning AB and the issue is offset by existing debt. A total of 333.333 shares are issued at a share price of 9 SEK, which was the current shareprice as at 8am on 21 September.
The board’s decision to override the shareholders’ preferential rights was taken to improve the company’s overall balance sheet position in a cost-effective manner, benefitting both the company and the shareholders going forward.
"We are pleased with this financing solution that significantly strengthens our balance sheet and that the investors recognise Ayima's stability and growth potential. It’s a sign of strength that the share price in the directed share issue is made without significant discount to the current share price which otherwise is market standard" said Mike Jacobson, CEO of Ayima.
“Ayima has demonstrated that it can deliver results even during an economic crisis such as that caused by Covid-19. We have complete confidence that Ayima can capture the opportunities that arise from the current situation and look forward to following the development of the company” said the investors Gerhard Dal, Oliver Molse of Modelio Equity and Per Nilsson of Råsunda Förvaltning.
The new share capital of Ayima will be 226 800 “A” Shares and 7 166 872 “B” Shares.
