Result of the private placement and the Board of Directors’ resolution to complete the share capital increase
Shape Robotics announced earlier this year that the company was pursuing a direct issuance in the range of DKK 30-35 million to finance growth and invest in the company's long-term strategy towards 2027. This strategy includes an ambition to achieve a turnover of DKK 1 billion and an EBITDA in the range of 12-15 percent.
Following yesterday’s resolution to initiate a private placement of new shares, the Board of Directors of Shape Robotics A/S has, in a board meeting today, after having received subscription undertakings from a limited number of new and existing investors, both domestic and foreign, for all of the new shares offered, resolved to complete the private placement. The private placement was oversubscribed.
The resolution implies that the share capital of Shape Robotics A/S will be increased with nom. DKK 101.165,30 by issuance of 1.011.653 new shares with a nominal value of DKK 0.10 each. The new shares have been subscribed for at market price as determined by the Board of Directors to DKK 35,00 per new share to be paid in cash.
The new shares will be issued in the same share class as the existing shares and will thus carry the same rights pursuant to the Company’s Articles of Association.
The total share capital of the Company after completion of the directed issue will amount to nominally DKK 1,506,617 divided into 15,066,170 shares with a nominal value of DKK 0.10 each, and with the same number of voting rights.
The private placement will result in the Company receiving gross proceeds (before deduction of costs related to the issue) of DKK 35.407.750.
Registration of the share capital increase will be made as soon as possible. Following registration, the updated Articles of Association will be made available on the Company's website https://shaperobotics.com.
The new shares are expected to be admitted to trading and official listing Nasdaq Copenhagen under the Company’s permanent ISIN code (DK0061273125), on Friday, March 22, 2024.
