Scandinavian Enviro Systems resolves on a directed issue of shares and warrants to Alumni Capital Limited under existing financing arrangement
Scandinavian Enviro Systems AB (publ) ("Enviro" or the "Company") has, by virtue of the authorization granted by the annual general meeting on 23 June 2026, resolved on a directed share issue of 20,000,000 of shares at a subscription price of SEK 0.1785 per share and a directed issue of 1,785,000 of warrants (together, the "Issue") to Alumni Capital Limited ("Alumni Capital"). The Issue provides Enviro with SEK 3.57 million before deduction of transaction costs and is carried out as a result of Enviro requesting a drawdown under the equity-based investment agreement entered into by the Company and Alumni Capital on 22 May 2026 (the "Agreement").
Terms and conditions for the Issue
The subscription price per share amounts to 0.1785 SEK, corresponding to 90 percent of the lowest daily volume-weighted average price during the five trading days preceding the closing date of the drawdown. The subscription price has been determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement. The Issue provides the Company with SEK 3.57 million before transaction costs. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, Enviro has simultaneously resolved on a directed issue of 1,785,000 warrants to Alumni Capital. The warrants are issued free of charge.
Each warrant entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company at a subscription price of SEK 0.22 during the period from the date of registration of the warrants with the Swedish Companies Registration Office up to and including 22 May 2030. The subscription price shall correspond to 120 percent of the volume-weighted average price on the trading day of 21 May 2026, i.e. the day prior to entering into the Agreement. The warrants are subject to customary recalculation terms and are not intended to be admitted to trading on any marketplace.
The board of directors' considerations
The reason for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights is to secure the financing required to carry out the ongoing company reorganisation of the Company in a time- and cost efficient manner.
The Company's board of directors has carefully considered the conditions for instead raising capital through a rights issue and makes the assessment that it is currently, for several reasons, including the limited size of the capital raising, more advantageous for the Company and the shareholders to raise capital through a drawdown under the Agreement. In addition, a rights issue would (i) be more time-consuming and entail additional costs and execution risk, (ii) likely require significant underwriting commitments from a guarantee consortium, which would entail additional costs and/or additional dilution depending on the type of consideration paid for such underwriting, and (iii) likely have had to be carried out at a lower subscription price given the discount levels for rights issues carried out in the market recently and the Company's situation.
In light of the above, the board of directors' overall assessment is that the reasons for carrying out a directed issue by virtue of the Agreement outweigh the reasons that justify the main rule that new share issues shall be carried out with preferential rights for the shareholders and that the directed issue is considered to be in the interest of both the Company and all shareholders.
Dilution
Through the issue, the number of shares in Enviro will increase from 1,117,994,435 to 1,137,994,435. Upon full exercise of all 1,785,000 warrants, the number of shares will increase by an additional 1,785,000 shares. The issue of the new shares entails a dilution of approximately 1.757 percent of the number of shares and votes in Enviro. Upon full exercise of the newly issued warrants, there will be an additional dilution of approximately 0.157 percent.
The newly issued shares are expected to be admitted to trading on Nasdaq First North Growth Market after registration with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and Euroclear Sweden AB. The warrants are not intended to be admitted to trading on any marketplace.

Information about any further issues to Alumni Capital will be announced if and when they are carried out.
