THIS PRESS RELEASE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER TO BUY SECURITIES IN THE COMPANY. SEE ALSO THE SECTION “IMPORTANT INFORMATION” BELOW.

The Board of Directors of Magle Chemoswed Holding AB (”Magle Group” or the ”Company”) has today, on 22 November 2024, resolved, based on the authorization granted by the annual general meeting held on 25 April 2024, to carry out a new issue of a maximum of 1,226,794 shares with preferential rights for the Company's existing shareholders (the ”Rights Issue”). The subscription price has been set to SEK 30.00 per share. The Rights Issue, which is fully covered by subscription and guarantee commitments, will, upon full subscription, provide Magle Group with approximately SEK 36.8 million before transaction costs.

Summary of the Rights Issue

  • The Rights Issue will provide Magle Group with proceeds of up to approximately SEK 36.8 million before transaction costs.
  • Existing shareholders in Magle Group, as of the record date on 2 December 2024, will receive one (1) subscription right for each existing share. Fifteen (15) subscription rights entitle to subscription of one (1) new share.
  • In total, a maximum of 1,226,794 new shares may be issued in the Rights Issue.
  • The subscription price has been set to SEK 30.00 per share.
  • The record date for the Rights Issue is 2 December 2024 and the subscription period will run from and including 4 December 2024 up to and including 18 December 2024.
  • The last day of trading including the right to participate in the Rights Issue is on 28 November 2024.
  • Magle Group has received subscription commitments of approximately SEK 22.4 million, corresponding to approximately 61 percent of the Rights Issue. In addition, Magle Group has received a guarantee commitment of approximately SEK 14.4 million, corresponding to approximately 39 percent of the Rights Issue. Accordingly, the Rights Issue is fully covered by subscription and guarantee commitments.

Background and rationale
The health and pharmaceutical industries are evolving rapidly and require new approaches and strategic partnerships to remain competitive and meet emerging market needs. During the second half of 2024, Magle Group has merged with both Amniotics and pK Chemicals to create a larger player that offers contract development and manufacturing services (CDMO) and sales of the group's medical devices.

The mergers with Amniotics and pK Chemicals have combined resources and expertise, which is opening up new growth opportunities and operational efficiencies. Magle Group will be able to offer a broad portfolio of products and services, which includes technical dextran, dextran derivatives, DSM-based products, active pharmaceutical ingredients, tailor-made pharmaceutical and medical solutions. This strategic path will lead to an expanded presence globally, addressing new markets and customer segments, further diversifying the combined group's revenue sources and increasing market penetration and potential revenue growth.

Furthermore, the mergers are expected to create value for the shareholders of Magle Group through synergies in the form of, among other things, increased production capacity, improved CDMO capacity, management expertise, expertise in business development and broadened service offering. In addition, synergies are expected in the form of reduced overhead and financing costs. In total, the value of synergies from such cost savings is estimated to amount to between SEK 13 and 24 million annually and will be released within 12 to 36 months. These mergers, although they are expected to contribute synergies and cost savings over time, have resulted in increased debt in Magle Group, whereby the Board of Directors believes that it would be advantageous for the Company to optimize the capital structure through a new issue of shares to finance the repayment of outstanding loans.

Upon full subscription in the Rights Issue, Magle Group will receive approximately SEK 36.8 million before deduction of transaction costs. The transaction costs are expected to amount to approximately SEK 3.1 million. The net proceeds of approximately SEK 33.7 million are expected to be used to optimize the capital structure through repayment of outstanding loans, either by set-off or cash repayment, depending on allotment in the Rights Issue, in accordance with the following:

  • Maria Magle Holding AB, SEK 16.6 million (approximately 49 percent), of which at least SEK 16.0 million is intended to be repaid by set-off,
  • PRS1 ApS, SEK 14.4 million (approximately 43 percent), of which at most SEK 14.4 million is intended to be repaid by set-off, and
  • Mats Pettersson, SEK 2.7 million (approximately 8 percent), of which at least SEK 0.4 million is intended to be repaid by set-off.

Terms and conditions for the Rights Issue
Shareholders who, on the record date on 2 December 2024, are registered shareholders in Magle Group's share register kept by Euroclear Sweden AB have preferential rights to subscribe for shares in relation to the number of shares held on the record date. The shareholders will receive one (1) subscription right for each share held on the record date. Fifteen (15) subscription rights entitle to subscription of one (1) new share. Through the Rights Issue, the Company's share capital will increase by not more than SEK 61,339.70 through the issuance of not more than 1,226,794 shares.

The subscription price has been set to SEK 30.00 per share and thus, upon full subscription in the Rights Issue, Magle Group will receive approximately SEK 36.8 million before transaction costs.

In the event that not all shares are subscribed for with the support of subscription rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, resolve on the allotment of shares to those who have subscribed for shares without the support of subscription rights in accordance with the following allotment principles:

  • Firstly, allotment shall be made to those who have subscribed for shares through subscription rights, regardless of whether the subscriber was a shareholder on the record date or not, and in the event of oversubscription, in proportion to the number of subscription rights each subscriber exercised for subscription and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.
  • Secondly, allotment shall be made to others who have subscribed for shares without the support of subscription rights, and, in the event that they cannot receive full allotment, in proportion to the number of shares each subscriber subscribed for and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.
  • Thirdly and finally, any remaining shares shall be allotted to guarantors who have entered into guarantee commitments in proportion to the size of the guarantee commitment and, to the extent this is not possible, by drawing lots.

Upon full subscription the Rights Issue entails a dilutive effect of approximately 6.25 percent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company after the Rights Issue. However, the shareholders have the possibility to be partly financially compensated for this dilution by selling their received subscription rights.
