Stockholm, Sweden, October 5th, 2020 - KebNi is a socially responsible and environmentally conscious company, focused on becoming a leading supplier of reliable technology, products and solutions for safety, positioning and stabilization. The Company currently has operations within two different product areas: stabilized antenna platforms and inertial motion sensors, IMU.

To accelerate growth and capture current business opportunities, as well as strengthen the balance sheet, the Company intends to carry out the Rights Issue.

Background and motive

KebNi is active in the high-tech markets for satellite communications and inertial motion sensors, addressing government & military as well as commercial customers. In recent years, KebNi has won a number of important business projects, of which the most important so far is with IAI (Israel Aerospace Industries), an Israeli company active in the space and defense industry. The agreement with IAI, which was entered into in 2018, has to date resulted in orders with a total value of USD 7 million. In addition, KebNi entered into a framework agreement with SAAB Dynamics in June 2020, where KebNi will be an important component supplier to a new generation of products. In common for all of the Company's customers is that they place high demands on quality, competence and technological height, and the sales cycles are often long, which in turn places high demands on ongoing business development and sales and marketing efforts.

In June 2019, Carsten Drachmann was appointed new CEO. Carsten has many years of experience from international operations in several industries, including telecommunications and satellite communications, and the Company has, under his leadership, completed two acquisitions within the satellite communications market. KebNi has a clear growth strategy and has set five strategic goals that include both expansion of existing operations and growth through acquisitions.

Use of proceeds

As a result of covid-19, authorities around the world have restricted or completely closed access to certain countries. A country that has been highly affected and has been subject to two nationwide shutdowns is Israel, where the Company's most important customer IAI is based. As a last step in the delivery process with IAI, final testing and approval is conducted with the delivered equipment. Payment milestones are subject to the final testing and approval, which is likely to be affected by the aforementioned nationwide shutdown. Currently payments in excess of SEK 20 million on existing contract are expected to be received during the fourth quarter of 2020. To ensure continued development and operations the Company, by extending existing bridge loan and agreeing on an additional bridge loan of approximately SEK 12,6 million, has total loan facilities corresponding to the payments expected to be received from IAI during 2020 from current contracts.

Together with the payments expected to be received during Q4 2020 from IAI the proceeds from the Rights Issue, after repayment of the loan facilities, are expected to be allocated as set out below and, in the event not all activities can be carried out:

1. Sales and marketing (approximately 20% of total proceeds)

  • Additional sales staff, building reseller network, global branding

2. Business development (approximately 10-15% of total proceeds)

  • Exploring trends, leveraging technology for new applications, partnering for production & service, new market entry

3. Acquisitions/Joint Ventures (approximately 20% of the proceeds)

  • Cost of running acquisition process and smaller acquisitions. Large acquisitions will require additional capital

4. Product Development & IP (approximately 15% of the proceeds)

  • Enhancing current product portfolio, new technology, creating new IP and innovations

5. Strengthen the balance sheet (approximately 10-15% of the proceeds)

  • Production & test equipment (SAAB), product demo units for sales & marketing

6. Working capital (approximately 20% of the proceeds)

  • Ongoing operations, inventory

Comment from the CEO of KebNi, Carsten Drachmann

"KebNi is progressing on building a platform for sustainable shareholder value. The company acquired its first major reference customer in 2019, Israel Aerospace Industries, and launched a new strategy in the autumn of 2019, defining a clear direction. Since then, the company has signed an agreement with another key reference customer (SAAB Dynamics), completed two acquisitions, changed its name to KebNi for improved branding, moved the trading platform to Nasdaq First North, and hired new key staff to be able to execute the strategy and growth plan. One of the acquisitions has also opened up markets in Russia and Saudi Arabia.

With demanding customer references and proven quality products, KebNi is now ready to accelerate its focus and investment into sales, marketing and branding activities globally, to increase the international presence of the company. These efforts will lead to increased customer awareness, industry partnerships, and reseller agreements, ultimately growing the sales pipeline significantly, eventually leading to our goal of a much larger and stable revenue stream. In addition, the funds from the proceeds will be used for continuous product and technology development, and potential acquisitions or partnerships leading to increased business for KebNi", - Carsten Drachmann, CEO

In the event of oversubscription, shares will be allocated in relation to the number of subscription rights exercised; if this is not possible, shares will be allotted by way of board resolution. Secondly, shares will be allotted to other parties who registered for subscription without subscription rights and, in the event of oversubscription, in relation to the number of new shares indicated in the respective subscription applications; if this is not possible, shares will be allotted by way of board resolution.
