NRC Group ASA - Cancellation of subsequent repair offering
NRC Group ASA - Cancellation of subsequent repair offering
References is made to the stock exchange notice on 12 February 2020, regarding
the contemplated private placement and a potential subsequent repair offering in
NRC Group ASA ("the Company").
Since the announcement of the private placement, the Company's shares have
traded similar to or below the subscription price in the private placement of
NOK 37. In the period from 12 February 2020 to 6 March 2020 the volume-weighted
average share price (VWAP) has been NOK 33, and at the lowest the share price
was NOK 26.10, approximately 29.46 percent below the subscription price.
Furthermore, 4.73 million shares have been traded below the subscription price,
which represents 2.5x the volume in the subsequent repair offering.
Consequently, existing shareholders wishing to avoid or reduce the dilutive
effect of the private placement have had the opportunity to purchase shares in
the open market during an extended period in time, at prices below the
subscription price of the private placement. Hence, the Board withdraws its
proposal to the general meeting to give the Board an authorisation to issue
shares in the subsequent repair offering.
