NOT FOR RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR TO THE UNITED STATES, CANADA, JAPAN, SOUTH AFRICA, AUSTRALIA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, WHERE SUCH ACTIONS ARE SUBJECT TO LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. THIS PRESS RELEASE DOES NOT MAKE AN OFFER REGARDING ANY SECURITIES IN BIOSERVO.

Bioservo Technologies Aktiebolag (”Bioservo” or the ”Company”) has mandated Erik Penser Bank to evaluate the conditions to carry out a directed issue of up to 3 159 664 new shares (the “Directed Issue”) through an accelerated bookbuilding procedure (the “Bookbuilding Procedure").

Through the Bookbuilding Procedure, that begins immediately after the publication of this press release, the subscription price for the new shares in the Directed Issue will be determined. The Bookbuilding Procedure will be completed before the trading begins on Nasdaq First North Growth Market on September 29, 2021. The completion of the Directed Issue is subject to that the Board of Directors of Bioservo resolves to issue the new shares based on the authorization given by the Annual General Meeting on April 19, 2021.

The Board may at any time choose to suspend, extend, or shorten the Bookbuilding Procedure and refrain from resolving to carry out the Directed Issue.

Bioservo has successfully developed and launched its new and improved Ironhand^® 2.0 and has received orders amounting to 5.8 MSEK since June with France as the pioneer market. Now when the restrictions due to the pandemic are gradually lifted Bioservo sees an increasing activity from potential customers, including the big companies within the automotive industry in North America, where the ongoing tests are approaching the final stages. Also the clinical study that Bioservo is conducting for the Carbonhand^® is approaching the final stage with more than 80 % of the patients now included and Bioservo is looking forward to present the final results in the first quarter 2022, following the positive interim results that were published in October, 2020. In order to meet an expected increased demand and strengthen the Company’s sales resources as well as the development capacity the Board of Directors have decided to initiate evaulation of the possibilities for the Directed Issue.

The reasons for deviating from the shareholders' preferential right are to execute capitalization of the Company in a time and cost-effective manner.
