Summary of the background and reasons

At the 2022 annual general meeting, a new Board of Directors of Enersize was elected, after which a new management team was appointed. Shortly afterwards, a strategic review was carried out which resulted in the establishment of a new strategy, meaning that the focus shifted from research and development to commercialization, including primarily sales and deliveries to customers. Furthermore, actions were initiated to reduce the Company’s costs in both the short and long term, which, to date, has resulted in cost reductions of around 50 percent on an annual basis, while at the same time the Company strengthened the sales and delivery organization.

During the past year, the energy market has also changed, and in 2023 the Company has evaluated bundling its products and service offering on an ongoing basis, including customer on-site tests. It is the Company’s understanding that the customers’ interest and awareness have increased due to Enersize’s increased presence on the market, as well as due to regulatory requirements from both the EU and nationally. A receipt for the increased customer interest is that Enersize won more than 25 new orders during the first quarter of 2024, which is a significantly higher order intake than any other single quarter in the Company’s history. The assessment is that regulatory requirements on the energy market will increase in the future, which for Enersize could mean new areas of use for the Company’s products and, hence, result in a larger addressable market.

Today, Enersize is a company that can monitor and manage energy needs and solutions for industrial customers. In order to promote continued growth and be able to meet increased demand from its customers, the Board of Directors has decided to carry out a rights issue of approximately MSEK 16.0. In order to ensure the financing needs until the rights issue is completed, the Company has received bridge loans totalling MSEK 2.0. The net proceeds from the rights issue are intended to be used for the following purposes stated in order of priority:

• repayment of bridge loans (approximately 12 percent);
• sales and marketing as well as strengthening of the delivery organization (approximately 60 percent); and
• general business purposes including working capital (approximately 28 percent).

The issue proceeds are deemed by the Board of Directors to enable the Company’s operations to be financed until positive cash flow, which is deemed to be achieved before the end of the year.

Pre-emptive rights issue

The Board of Directors has proposed on 26 March 2024 that the EGM decides on a rights issue with preferential rights of a maximum of 2 664 306 760 new shares for the Company’s existing shareholders (“Rights Issue”) on the following terms:

The new shares are primarily offered for subscription to existing shareholders of the Company in accordance with the pre-emptive right of shareholders in proportion to their holding of the existing shares in the Company, and secondarily to others, as further described below.

The Company will allot one (1) unit right to all shareholders registered in the Company’s shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB (or, in respect of nominee-registered existing shares, a shareholder on whose behalf the shares have been registered in the shareholders’ register) on the record date per each share held on the record date. Thirteen (13) unit rights entitle shareholders to subscribe for one (1) unit. One (1) unit consists of twenty (20) new shares in the Company. The Company will allot one (1) subscription right to all shareholders registered in the Company’s shareholders’ register maintained by Euroclear Finland Oy (or, in respect of nominee-registered existing shares, a shareholder on whose behalf the shares have been registered in the shareholders’ register) on the record date per each share held on the record date. Thirteen (13) subscription rights entitle shareholders to subscribe for twenty (20) new shares in the Company.

No fractions of shares will be issued, and it will not be possible to partially exercise a single subscription right or unit right. Any subscription rights or unit rights remaining unexercised at the end of the subscription period will expire without any compensation.

If all shares are subscribed for in the Rights Issue, the Company will receive gross proceeds of approximately SEK 15 985 540.56 in total before deduction of transaction costs.

The record date for determination of which shareholders are entitled to participation in the Rights Issue is 25 April 2024.

The subscription period commences on 30 April 2024 and ends on 14 May 2024 in Sweden and 16 May 2024 in Finland. The pre-emptive right shall be used during the subscription period. The Company’s Board of Directors shall have the right to prolong the subscription period.

The unit rights will be registered on the shareholders’ book-entry accounts in the book-entry system maintained by Euroclear Sweden AB no later than on 29 April 2024 in Sweden and the subscription rights by Euroclear Finland Oy no later than on 26 April 2024 in Finland.

The subscription rights and unit rights will be allotted free of charge to entice the current shareholders of the Company to participate in the issuance and subscribe for shares.

The subscription price is SEK 0.1200 per unit, corresponding to SEK 0.0060 per each new share (corresponding to EUR 0.0006 per share). The subscription price has been determined through negotiations with a number of investors and on the terms that the Board of Directors deems the issue can be carried out, adapted to the prevailing market situation. The Company’s Board of Directors therefore considers that the subscription price is market-based.

The subscribers are entitled to pay the subscription price by offsetting it against a claim they have on the Company with the consent of the Board of Directors.

A holder of subscription rights or unit rights may participate in the Rights Issue during the subscription period by subscribing for new shares by submitting the subscription notice and paying the subscription price in accordance with the instructions of the relevant custodian or account operator, which means that the subscription price must be paid during the subscription period. The Company’s Board of Directors shall have the right to prolong the payment period.

Subscription may also take place without the support of unit rights and subscription rights. In the event not all shares are subscribed for with the support of unit rights and subscription rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the limit of the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, decide on allotment of shares subscribed for without the support of unit rights and subscription rights. Allotment will then take place in the following order of priority:

1. Firstly, allotment shall be made to those who have subscribed for shares with unit rights or subscription rights, regardless of if they were shareholders on the record date or not, pro rata in relation to the number of shares subscribed for through exercise of unit rights or subscription rights and, insofar this cannot be done, by drawing lots.
2. Secondly, allotment shall be made to those who have subscribed for shares without unit rights or subscription rights, pro rata in relation to the number of shares subscribed for by each and, insofar this cannot be done, by drawing lots.
3. Thirdly, allotment shall be made to those who have entered guarantee commitments, in relation to such guarantee commitments.

A number of existing shareholders, Chairman of the Board of Directors Alexander Fällström, COO and Board member Jonas Hagberg via Torsion Invest AB, Germinare AB, Rothesay Jersey Limited and John Fällström among others, have entered into subscription commitments of approximately SEK 4.6 million, corresponding to approximately 28.5 per cent of the Rights Issue. In addition, a number of existing shareholders and external investors, Chairman of the Board of Directors Alexander Fällström, The CEO of the Company Johan Olson via company, Germinare AB and John Fällström among others, have entered into guarantee commitments of approximately SEK 8.2 million, corresponding to approximately 51.5 per cent of the Rights Issue. The Rights Issue is thus covered by subscription and guarantee commitments up to approximately 80.0 per cent, totalling approximately SEK 12.8 million.

A guarantee fee will be paid to the guarantors by the Company in cash, based on current market conditions, of fifteen (15) per cent of the guaranteed amount. No fee will be paid for subscription commitments from existing shareholders. Neither the subscription commitments nor the guarantee commitments are secured through bank guarantees, restricted funds, pledged assets or similar arrangements.

All existing shareholders who have entered subscription commitments in the Rights Issue, corresponding to about 28.5 per cent of all outstanding shares in Enersize, have also undertaken to vote in favour of the Rights Issue at the EGM.

If all shares are subscribed for in the Rights Issue, the number of shares in Enersize will increase with up to a maximum of 2 664 306 760 shares and subsequently amount to a maximum of 4 396 106 162 shares in total. The new shares will amount to approximately 154 per cent of all shares in the Company before the Rights Issue and approximately 61 per cent of the Company’s shares after the Rights Issue if all shares are subscribed for. Existing shareholders that do not participate in the Rights Issue will be diluted by a maximum of approximately 60.6 per cent but will have the possibility to gain economic compensation for the dilution effect by selling their unit rights and/or subscription rights.

The subscription price shall be added to the reserve for invested unrestricted equity of the Company.

The new shares shall entitle to dividends for the first time on the nearest record date for dividends that occurs after the shares have been registered.

The Board of Directors shall be authorised to decide on all other conditions for the Rights Issue and any questions related thereto, including cancelling the Rights Issue at its sole discretion. For the sake of clarity, it is noted that this decision does not replace any authorisations in force.

The Board of Directors, or persons authorised by the Board of Directors, shall be authorised to decide on and take any practical actions related to the implementation of the Rights Issue.
