NextCell Pharma AB’s rights issue heavily oversubscribed

The Board of Directors of NextCell Pharma AB (“NextCell” or the “Company”) announces today the outcome in the Company’s new issue of shares with preferential rights for existing shareholders (the “Rights Issue”). The demand was high and the Rights Issue was oversubscribed. Thus, no guarantees have been utilized. Through the Rights Issue, the Company receives approximately SEK 25.1 million before transaction costs.

  • 4,111,192 shares were subscribed using subscription rights
  • In addition, applications for subscription without using subscription rights corresponding to 11,750,102 shares have been received
  • The Rights Issue was fully guaranteed through subscription undertakings of approximately SEK 8.4 million and guarantee commitments of approximately SEK 16.7 million
  • No guarantee commitments have been utilized

The result in the Rights Issue shows that 4,111,192 shares were subscribed using subscription rights. The remaining part was subscribed without using subscription rights. The interest in subscription of shares without using subscription rights corresponded to 11,750,102 shares.

“We would like to thank everyone who participated in the issue. It is gratifying to note that there is a great interest in NextCell that resulted in a substantial oversubscription. The funds raised now enable Nextcell’s continued development and we look forward to the company’s upcoming listing on Nasdaq First North as well as to the implementation of planned projects, “says Anders Essen-Möller, Chairman of the Board.

Allocation of shares subscribed without using subscription rights within the Rights Issue has been done in accordance with the principles stated in the prospectus published on 3 June 2020. Notice of allotment is made through a settlement note sent to the respective subscribers. Payment for allotted shares must be made in accordance with the instructions in the settlement note.

Following registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, the Company’s share capital will increase by SEK 872,119.61 to a total of SEK 4,796,658.47. The number of shares in the Company will increase by 4,254,242 shares to a total of 23,398,334 shares.

Trading in paid subscribed shares (BTA) takes place on the Spotlight Stock Market until the new shares have been registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office, which is expected to take place during week 28, 2020. As previously communicated, the Company has obtained conditional approval from Nasdaq, including customary reservations, regarding admission to trading of the Company’s shares on Nasdaq First North Growth Market. The list change is planned to take place in July.
