The new issue of 22,000,000 B shares in connection with the IPO has today been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office. This means that the number of shares has increased from 70,447,434 to 92,447,434 and that the number of votes has increased from 250,447,434 to 272,447,434.

In connection with the listing, Svenska Handelsbanken AB (publ) (“Handelsbanken”) borrowed shares from the main owners to be used for clearing and settlement, as well as for over-allotment. The 22,000,000 shares that were borrowed to be used for clearing and settlement of the new issue will today be returned to the owners.

As a result of the return of the lent shares and the registration of the new issue, four of the original owners of Platzer will file disclosure notifications in relation to their shareholdings. The disclosure notifications do not imply any changes in their original shareholdings.

If the over-allotment option is exercised, up to 3,300,000 additional B shares will be issued. In connection with the over-allotment option being exercised or expires, the 3,300,000 shares that Handelsbanken borrowed to be used for the over-allotment will be returned. In connection therewith, additional disclosure notifications will be released.
