(AIM: FARN, First North: FARON), a clinical- stage biopharmaceutical company focused on tackling cancers via novel immunotherapies, announces that it has received notifications from option holders to exercise 2015B options over 22,306 in the Company at an exercise price of EUR 2.90 (approx. GBP 2.48) per share and 2015D options over 25,873 shares in the Company at an exercise price of EUR 1.09 (approx. GBP 0.93) per share under the Company’s 2015 Option Plan (“New Ordinary Shares”).

Applications will be made to the London Stock Exchange and Nasdaq Helsinki to admit the New Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM and Nasdaq First North Growth Market, respectively. Admission of the New Ordinary Shares is expected to occur on or around October 30, 2023 following issue and registration of the New Ordinary Shares on or around October 31, 2023 (“Registration”). The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with existing ordinary shares.

 

Faron’s enlarged issued number of shares immediately following Registration will be 68,786,699 ordinary shares with voting rights attached. The Company has no shares in treasury; therefore upon, and subject to, Registration, the total number of voting rights in Faron will be 68,786,699. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify an interest in, or a change to their interest in, the issued shares and votes of the Company.
