    Sinch AB (publ)  127  0 Kommentare Sinch completes a directed new share issue of 5,000,000 shares, raising approximately SEK 1,500 million - Seite 2

    The Company’s board of directors’ assessment, based on the accelerated book building process executed by the Joint Bookrunners, is that the directed new share issue was carried out in on market terms. The reason for deviating from the shareholders’ preferential rights in the directed new share issue is to, in a timely and cost efficient manner, enable the raising of capital to finance further value creating acquisitions, to broaden the Company’s shareholder base and enhance the liquidity of the Company’s shares.

    Through the directed new share issue, the number of shares and votes in the Company will increase by 5,000,000 shares and votes, from 53,874,751 shares and votes to 58,874,751 shares and votes. The share capital will increase with SEK 500,000 from SEK 5,387,475.10 to SEK 5,887,475.10. The new share issue entails a dilutive effect for existing shareholders of approximately 9.3 percent based on the total number of shares in the Company at the time of the new share issue.

    In connection with the new share issue, the Company has entered into a lock-up undertaking, with customary exceptions, regarding future share issues for a period of 90 calendar days from today. In addition, Cantaloupe AB, Neqst D1 AB and Salvis Investment Limited, who currently hold approximately 35 percent of the shares in the Company have undertaken, with customary exceptions, not to sell any shares in the Company for a period of 90 calendar days from today.

    Advisers

    In conjunction with the directed new share issue, the Company has engaged Carnegie, Danske Bank and Handelsbanken Capital Markets as Joint Bookrunners. Gernandt & Danielsson has been legal advisor to the Company. Baker McKenzie has been legal advisor to the Joint Bookrunners.
