Success of the capital increase with preferential subscription rights: €4.25m raised

  • Gross proceeds of the transaction of €4.25m, i.e. net proceeds of around €4.05m
  • Issue of 1,053,230 new shares at a price of €4.04 per share
  • Settlement-delivery and listing of the new shares on 13 May 2024

VOGO (ISIN: FR0011532225 - ALVGO) is announcing the success of its capital increase in cash with preferential subscription rights of shareholders (the "Transaction") for a total amount of €4.25m.

Christophe Carniel, Co-Founder and Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of VOGO, said: "We are very pleased with the success of the capital increase, which gained the support of our historical shareholders and that of new investors, including major players in the world of sport. We would also like to thank ABEO, our strategic partner since 2020, which has once again placed its trust in us in this turning point for our Company. Together, we will use the proceeds of the fundraising to support the ramp-up of our new TaaS (Technology as a Service) model while stepping up our international sales momentum and continuing to innovate to strengthen our technological edge. Thanks to the trust of its shareholders and the dedication of its employees, VOGO is now perfectly prepared to take full advantage of the intense sporting year in 2024!"
