CEO Myron Mahendra comments
“I am very pleased with the outcome of the exercise of the warrants and guarantees in place to enable Cimco to receive the SEK 50.8m in due course.

The capital injection will allow us to execute our business plan in growing sales, increasing marketing initiatives and preparing the start of production of the much awaited OXE300.”
Warrants of series 2019:1 and directed share issue
In total, 22,381,968 warrants of series 2019:1 were exercised to subscribe for the same number of new shares. In addition, the Board of Directors plans to, by use of the authorization from the Annual General Meeting 2019, resolve on a directed share issue of 11,451,369 shares to the consortium of guarantors that entered into guarantee commitments in connection with the exercise period for the warrants of series 2019:1. In total, Cimco will receive approx. SEK 50.8m from the exercise of warrants and the planned directed share issue before issue related costs. The reason for the planned resolution to issue shares with deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights is to enable the guarantors to fulfill their guarantee commitments and subscribe for new shares in the Company corresponding to the proportion of shares not subscribed for by the warrant holders during the exercise period that expired in October 2019.
Shares and share capital
When the new shares issued pursuant to the warrants of series 2019:1 have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the total number of shares in Cimco will be 153,388,152 and the share capital amount to SEK 4,599,285.23.
