Calmark publishes information memorandum in connection with fully guaranteed rights issue

Calmark Sweden AB (publ) (“Calmark” or “the Company”) is presenting an information memorandum today, on the occasion of the rights issue of units that Calmark’s extraordinary general meeting on 6 November 2019 resolved to conduct in accordance with the Board of Directors’s proposal (“the Rights issue”). If the Rights issue is fully subscribed, the Company is initially provided approximately MSEK 24.3 before issuance costs. On full exercise of all associated subscription warrants, the Company will receive between MSEK 10.3 and MSEK 16.2 additionally, before issuance costs. The Rights issue is guaranteed through subscription commitments (68 percent, of which 50 percentage points are subscriptions with the support of unit rights and 18 percentage points are subscriptions without unit rights) and guarantee commitments (32 percent), in total corresponding to 100 percent of the initial issue amount.

Information memorandum and application form
The information memorandum and application form for subscription with or without pre-emption rights have now been published on the websites of Calmark (www.calmark.se) and Hagberg & Aneborn Fondkommission AB (www.hagberganeborn.se), respectively.

The Rights issue in brief

• Shareholders in the Company have preferential rights to subscribe for one (1) unit in the rights issue for every twenty-one (21) shares held on the record date, 13 November 2019. Each unit consists of twelve (12) new B shares and four (4) associated warrants of series 2019/2020 (TO 2 B) free-of-charge.
• The subscription period is between 15 November 2019 and 29 November 2019.
• The subscription price is SEK 39.60 per unit, corresponding to SEK 3.30 per share.
• The subscription warrants are issued free-of-charge.
• Each subscription warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one B share, at a subscription price calculated as 75 percent of the volume-weighted average price during the period 12 October 2020 up to and including 23 October 2020, but not less than SEK 4.20 or more than SEK 6.60. Subscription for B shares with warrants will be possible during the period between 4 December 2020 and 16 December 2020 inclusive.
• If the Rights issue is fully subscribed, the Company is initially provided approximately MSEK 24.3 before issuance costs, and, on full exercise of all associated subscription warrants, between MSEK 10.3 and 16.2 additionally.
• Trading in unit rights will take place on Spotlight Stock Market between 15 November 2019 and 27 November 2019 inclusive.
• Trading in paid subscription units (BTU) begins on 15 November and continues until the Rights issue is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

The Company has received subscription commitments amounting to approximately MSEK 16.5, or about 68 percent of the total amount of the Rights issue. The Company has also received commitments from a guarantee consortium of qualified investors, amounting to approximately MSEK 7.8, or about 32 percent of the total amount of the Rights issue. The Rights issue is hence guaranteed up to 100 percent of the initial issue amount.
