THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PRESS RELEASE IS NOT INTENDED TO BE PUBLISHED, DISCLOSED, OR DISTRIBUTED, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN OR TO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, HONG KONG, CANADA, SINGAPORE, OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD VIOLATE APPLICABLE LAWS OR REGULATIONS.

Eevia Health Plc ("Eevia" or "the Company") today announces the outcome of the rights issue for which the subscription period ended on June 28, 2024, in Sweden and on July 2, 2024, in Finland (the "Rights Issue" or "Offer"). A total of 28,641,604 shares, corresponding to 60.2 percent of the shares in the Offer, have been allocated. Current shareholders subscribed for 18,910,564 shares (39.7 percent) with subscription rights. Current and new shareholders subscribed for another 9,731,040 shares (20.4 percent) without subscription rights. In total, investors subscribed for 60.2 percent of the Rights Issue. A total of 7,160,396 warrants of series TO1 will be issued. Through the Rights Issue, the Company will raise proceeds of approximately SEK 17.2 million before deducting costs related to the Rights Issue. The Rights issue did not utilize any guarantee commitments.
"I'm grateful for the vote of confidence in our Company from our current and new investors. The rights issue funds are essential pillars in our financial growth plan. Eevia plans to take advantage of several great market opportunities. The board and the management team focus on our financial targets and revenue growth. I look forward to communicating our progress with you going forward." - says Stein Ulve, CEO at Eevia.
About the Rights Issue
Existing shareholders provided subscription commitments, and external investors provided guarantee undertakings for the Rights Issue, guaranteeing up to 50.2 percent of the Rights issue, but the Rights issue did not utilize any of these guarantee commitments. Through the Rights Issue, the Company will raise approximately SEK 17.2 million before deduction of costs related to the Rights Issue, which are estimated to approximately SEK 2.5 million.
The net proceeds from the Rights Issue are primarily planned to increase the Company's working capital and repay a short-term bridge loan of SEK 7.5 million plus interest, which the Company acquired in May 2024. Improved working capital will enable the Company to handle growth in customer receivables. Eevia will also increase its focus on developing the organization to facilitate continued growth.
Delivery of shares
Eevia expects the shares in the Offer to be registered with the Finnish Trade Register (the "Trade Register") approximately on or about July 22, 2024. The Company further expects the delivery of the shares in the Offer to the subscribers in the Offer through Euroclear Finland approximately on or about July 23, 2024, and Euroclear Sweden approximately on or about July 31, 2024. The shares of the Company are registered in the electronic book-entry securities system maintained by Euroclear Finland. The Company and its shares will have their primary registration in the book-entry register of Euroclear Finland. Further, the shares are registered in the corresponding Swedish book-entry securities system maintained by Euroclear Sweden. Eevia will announce the last day of trading with Paid Subscribed Shares (Sw. BTA) and the first day of trading for the new shares as soon as the Rights Issue is registered with the Finnish Trade Register.
Dilution
The number of shares in Eevia will increase by 28,641,604 shares from 35,713,884 shares to 64,355,488 shares implying a dilution of 44.5 percent for existing shareholders who do not participate in the Offer.
