PRESS RELEASE 16 February 2023 14:20:00 CET
Senzime publishes prospectus relating to the rights issue
Senzime AB (publ) ("Senzime" or "the Company") announced on 23 February 2023 that the Board of Directors had resolved on a new issue of shares of approximately SEK 100 million with preferential right for existing shareholders (the "Rights Issue"), which is covered to 90.7 per cent through subscription commitments, declarations of intent to subscribe and underwriting commitments. The Board of Directors' resolution of the Rights Issue was approved by the Extraordinary General Meeting today on 16 February 2023. The prospectus that has been prepared in connection with the Rights Issue has today on 16 February 2023 been approved and registered by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, and is available in Swedish on Senzime's website, www.senzime.com, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority's website, www.fi.se, as well as on Danske Bank's website, www.danskebank.se /prospekt.
Subscription forms for subscription with and without subscription rights can be obtained from Senzime' s website, www.senzime.com, as well as on Danske Bank's website, www.danskebank.se/prospekt.
In connection with the Rights Issue and the prospectus mentioned above, the Company has had the year-end report for the financial year 2022 reviewed (SWE: översiktligt granskad) by the Company's auditor. The year-end report and a separate report from the review is available at the Company's website. In connection hereto, it is noted that in the press release published on 23 January 2023 at 19: 19 CET it was incorrectly stated that the year-end report for the financial year 2022 would be audited (where it should have said reviewed).
The upcoming Rights Issue in Senzime is expected to be completed around 24 March 2023. To secure that the Company has at least three months of working capital financing regardless of the Rights Issue, the Company has entered into a short-term loan of SEK 10 million with Danske Bank. Furthermore, some of the current shareholders have issued binding and interest-free credit facilities totalling SEK 25.9 million. The credit facilities and the short-term loan from Danske Bank are valid until 30 June 2023.
Advisers
In connection with the Rights Issue, the Company has retained Danske Bank A/S, Danmark, Sverige Filial as Sole Global Coordinator and Bookrunner and Advokatfirman Lindahl KB as legal adviser to the Company.
