NeuroVive publishes outcome in rights issue

NeuroVive Pharmaceutical AB (Nasdaq Stockholm: NVP) ("NeuroVive" or the "Company") today announces that the new share issue with preferential rights for existing shareholders, announced by the Company on February 19, 2020 (the "Rights Issue"), has been completed. In the Rights Issue, 24,348,709 shares, corresponding to 26.2 percent of the Rights Issue, were subscribed for with the use of subscription rights. In addition, 314,183 shares, corresponding to 0.3 percent of the Rights Issue, were subscribed for without the use of subscription rights and 59,057,983 shares, corresponding to 63.5 percent of the Rights Issue, were subscribed for by share issue guarantors. In total, the Rights Issue was subscribed to 90.0 percent, which implies that NeuroVive raises approximately MSEK 67 before deduction for issue costs.

NOT FOR RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL OR REQUIRE REGISTRATION OR ANY OTHER MEASURE.

Through the Rights Issue, NeuroVive raises approximately MSEK 67 before issue costs, which are estimated to amount to approximately MSEK 13. The capital raise means that the Company can complete the remaining part of the Phase I study in KL1333, preparations for the start of the Phase II study in KL1333 and preparations for the start of clinical studies in NV354. The final outcome shows that 24,348,709 shares, corresponding to 26.2 percent of the Rights Issue, were subscribed for with the use of subscription rights. In addition, 314,183 shares, corresponding to 0.3 percent of the Rights Issue, without the use of subscription rights and 59,057,983 shares, corresponding to 63.5 percent of the Rights Issue, were subscribed for by share issue guarantors.

Through the Rights Issue, the Company's share capital increases by SEK 4,186,043.75 from SEK 9,297,629.55 to SEK 13,483,673.30 and the number of shares increases by 83,720,875 shares from 185,952,591 shares to 269,673,466 shares. The dilution effect for shareholders who did not participate in the Rights Issue thus amounts to approximately 31 percent.

Trading in paid subscribed shares (BTA) on Nasdaq Stockholm will continue under the short name NVP BTA until the Rights Issue has been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sv. Bolagsverket), which is expected to take place during week 22, 2020. After that, BTA will be converted into shares after approximately one week.

Allotment of shares subscribed for without the use of subscription rights has been made in accordance with the principles set out in the prospectus that has been prepared for the Rights Issue and published by the Company on April 3, 2020. Notice of allotment is provided through the distribution of a settlement note by mail to the respective subscriber. The settlement note is expected to be distributed around May 7, 2020. Allotted shares shall be paid for in accordance with the instructions on the settlement note.

"I would like to extend a warm thank you to all of you who participated in the Rights Issue, both existing and new shareholders. Your support means that we can push forward our important primary mitochondrial disease projects and carry out value-creating activities to achieve our goal, to improve the lives of people suffering from these severe diseases.
