NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR INTO AUSTRALIA, HONG KONG, NEW ZEELAND JAPAN, CANADA, SINGAPORE, SWITZERLAND, SOUTH AFRICA, THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE DISTRIBUTION OF THIS PRESS RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL.
The subscription period for Eniro's rights issue with preferential rights for shareholders of ordinary shares ended on March 30, 2015 and according to the preliminary result the rights issue is oversubscribed. The company will thereby receive approximately SEK 458 million before transaction costs.
In total, approximately 97 percent of the rights issue was subscribed for with the exercise of subscription rights. These subscriptions include certain larger shareholders, including Zimbrine Holding BV (a company controlled by Staffan Persson, member of the Board of Directors), Danske Capital and Lars-Johan Jarnheimer (Chairman of the Board) which have committed to subscribe for their respective pro rata shares, corresponding to, in aggregate, approximately 18 percent of the total rights issue.
Additionally, applications for subscription of ordinary shares without subscription rights have been received, corresponding to in aggregate approximately SEK 110 million, representing approximately 24 percent of the total rights issue proceeds before transaction costs.
Allotment of new ordinary shares subscribed for without subscription rights will be made according to the principles outlined in the prospectus which was published on March 13, 2015. Consequently, since the rights issue has been oversubscribed, the guarantee commitments made in connection with the rights issue will not be exercised.
Through the rights issue, Eniro's share capital will increase by SEK 152,821,110. The number of ordinary shares will increase by 305,642,220 to 407,522,960. This occurs when the rights issue is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
The last day of trading in paid subscribed shares (BTA) at Nasdaq Stockholm is expected to be April 24, 2015. The new ordinary shares are expected to start trading at Nasdaq Stockholm around April 30, 2015.
ABG Sundal Collier AB is acting as financial advisor and Gernandt & Danielsson Advokatbyrå KB is the legal advisor to Eniro in connection with the rights issue.
