Nordic Aqua Partners A/S - Redomiciliation from Denmark to Norway

Report this content

Reference is made to Nordic Aqua Partners A/S' ("NOAP A/S" or the "Company") first quarter report dated 2 June 2022 where the Company stated its intent to redomicile from Denmark to Norway.

With the Company's shares being traded on Euronext Growth Oslo, and considering the Company's limited activity in Denmark, it is the assessment of the Company's Board of Directors that such redomiciliation will make the share more attractive to investors and thus contribute to improving NOAP's access to capital.

The Boards of Directors of the Company and the Norwegian company Nordic Aqua Partners AS ("NOAP AS") have therefore today signed a joint plan for the cross-border merger of the two companies with NOAP AS as the surviving entity. NOAP AS is currently an empty shelf company. Upon completion of the merger, the Company's business will be continued in NOAP AS as a Norwegian private limited liability company.

The merger will be completed in accordance with the provisions of chapter 13 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act and chapter 16 of the Danish Companies Act. Upon completion of the merger the Company’s business, including all assets, rights and obligations, will be transferred to NOAP AS, and the shareholders in the Company will as consideration receive one share in NOAP AS for each share held in the Company. The shares in NOAP AS will be listed on Euronext Growth Oslo.

Completion of the merger is subject to customary conditions being fulfilled, including approval by the general meeting of each of the merging companies.

The changes to company’s legal structures have no implications for existing shareholders.

Any shareholder of the Company voting against completion of the merger at the general meeting is entitled to require its shares redeemed by the Company at market value. Further details on the procedure for such redemption will be announced later.
