Press release
25 April 2023
On 29 March 2023, Navamedic ASA[1] ("Navamedic") announced a public offer to the shareholders of Sensidose Aktiebolag ("Sensidose") to tender all shares in Sensidose to Navamedic at a price of SEK 6.27 in cash per share (the "Offer"). An offer document was made public on the same day, on 29 March 2023. On 22 April 2023, Navamedic announced an increase of the consideration in the Offer to SEK 8 in cash per share, completed the Offer and declared the Offer unconditional (the "Revised Offer"). Navamedic has resolved to expand its Revised Offer to include warrants of series TO 1 in Sensidose (the "Warrants"), and thereby offers the holders of the Warrants SEK 0.38 in cash per Warrant in Sensidose (the "Warrant Offer" and the "Warrant Holders", respectively). The Warrants are listed on Spotlight Stock Market. Furthermore, Navamedic has resolved to extend the acceptance period up to and including 15 May 2023.
The Warrant Offer
Navamedic has resolved to expand the Revised Offer to also include the Warrants, and thereby offers the Warrant Holders to tender all their Warrants to Navamedic at a price of SEK 0.38 in cash per Warrant. The total value of the Warrant Offer, based on all 2,265,000 outstanding Warrants in Sensidose, amounts to approximately SEK 860.7 thousand.
Navamedic has resolved to extend the acceptance period for the Revised Offer up to and including 15 May 2023. Settlement for Warrants tendered in the Warrant Offer during the extended acceptance period is expected to commence on or around 22 May 2023.
No commission will be charged in respect of the settlement of the shares and Warrants issued by Sensidose and tendered by Navamedic under the Revised Offer or the Warrant Offer.
The price[2] per Warrant in the Warrant Offer represents a negative premium of approximately 24 per cent compared to the closing share price of SEK 0.50 on 25 April 2023 (the last day of trading prior to the announcement of the Warrant Offer), and a premium of approximately 32.2 per cent compared to the volume-weighted average trading price of SEK 0.2875 on 25 April 2023.
Navamedic's holdings of Warrants
Outside of the Warrant Offer, Navamedic has acquired a total of 205,580 Warrants, corresponding to approximately 9.1 per cent of the Warrants. Navamedic has not acquired any Warrants at a price exceeding SEK 0.38 in cash per Warrant.
Information about the Warrants
Sensidose has issued a total of 2,265,000 Warrants which entitle the Warrant Holders to subscribe for 2,265,000 new shares in Sensidose. Each Warrant entitles the Warrant Holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in Sensidose. The Warrants entitle the Warrant Holders to subscribe for shares during the period 1 June 2023 up to and including 15 June 2023, at a subscription price of SEK 9.00 per share. The Warrants are listed on the Spotlight Stock Market (ticker code: "SENSI TO 1").
By reason of the value of the Warrants calculated using both a see-through valuation and by applying accepted valuation principles (the Black & Scholes formula) can be said to have a negligible value, the consideration for the Warrants is deemed to be reasonable.
Extension of the acceptance period
Navamedic has resolved to extend the acceptance period up to and including 15 May 2023 at 15:00 p.m. (CEST) to give shareholders and Warrant Holders time to consider and accept the Revised Offer and the Warrant Offer.
Settlement for shares tendered in the Revised Offer will not be affected and is expected to commence on or around 15 May 2023. Settlement for Warrants tendered in the Warrant Offer is expected to commence on or around 22 May 2023.
Navamedic reserves the right to further extend the acceptance period. Notice of any such extension will be announced by Navamedic by means of a press release in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.
During the extended acceptance period, Navamedic reserves the right to acquire, or take measures to acquire, shares and Warrants in Sensidose in other ways than through the Revised Offer or the Warrant Offer. Information of any such acquisitions of shares or Warrants, or measures to acquire shares or Warrants, will be announced in accordance with applicable rules and regulations.
Supplement to the offer document
An offer document relating to the Offer was published on 29 March 2023. A supplement to the offer document was published on 24 April 2023. A supplement, reflecting the contents of this press release, will be published on or around 28 April 2023, and will be made available on Navamedic's website (www.navamedic.com/investors/stock-exchange-news/offer-for-sensidose/) and on Carnegie Investment Bank AB's website (www.carnegie.se).
