Qlife Holding AB ("Qlife" or the "Company") announced on 29 January 2025 that it had entered into an agreement for a credit facility of up to SEK 5.60 million (the "Credit Facility") with JEQ Capital AB (the "Lender"). According to the agreement, the Lender has the right to convert all or part of the disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility into shares through directed set-off issues. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the subscription price per share in such directed issues has been set at SEK 3.00. The Company today announces that the Board of Directors, with the support of the authorization granted by the annual general meeting on 28 May 2025, is carrying out a directed issue of 823,584 shares (the "Directed Issue") to the Lender, following the Lender's request to convert a total of approximately SEK 2.47 million under the Credit Facility.
The Directed Issue
Qlife announced on 29 January 2025, in connection with the announcement of the rights issue which subscription period ended on 25 February 2025, that the Company had entered into an agreement with the Lender regarding the Credit Facility of up to SEK 5.60 million. The Credit Facility provides the Lender with the right to convert disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility into shares through directed set-off issues. Following the Lender's request to convert a total of approximately SEK 2.47 million, which includes set up fee, interest and disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility, the Board of Directors of Qlife has today resolved to carry out the Directed Issue of 823,584 shares. In accordance with the Credit Facility, the subscription price per share in the Directed Issue has been set at SEK 3.00.
The Board of Directors' considerations
The Company entered into the Credit Facility in connection with the rights issue, which subscription period ended 25 February 2025. The Board of Directors carefully considered the possibility of financing the Company solely through the rights issue but concluded that this could entail a risk of missing potential growth opportunities. The Board of Directors therefore considers it beneficial for both the Company and its shareholders that the Company has an additional source of financing through the Credit Facility. The Board of Directors considers this to be a sufficient basis for deviating from the main rule that share issues should be carried out with preferential rights for existing shareholders.
The Credit Facility
The Company entered into the Credit Facility on 29 January 2025. The Credit Facility would be disbursed no earlier than 30 June 2025 and amounts to a maximum of SEK 5.60 million. The Credit Facility had a set-up fee of 7.5 percent and disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility carries an interest rate of 1.5 percent for each commenced thirty-day period. As part of the compensation, the Lender received 1,250,000 warrants of series TO7. The Lender has the right, but not the obligation, to refrain from disbursing the loan if, at the time of the drawdown, the amount to be disbursed exceeds 20 percent of the borrower's then-current market value. Disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility will fall due 31 March 2026.
The Lender has the right to convert disbursed amounts under the Credit Facility at a subscription price corresponding to SEK 3.00. The Board of Directors has ensured the marketability of the subscription price and the other terms and conditions in consultation with financial advisors based on the prevailing market conditions for raising capital and after arm's length negotiations between the Company on the one hand and the investors and the Lender on the other hand. In light of the above, the Board of Directors is of the opinion that the subscription price and the other terms and conditions has been secured at market conditions. The reason why the Lender will be entitled to convert its loan is that the Lender has provided the Credit Facility.
Shares, share capital and dilution
As a result of the Directed Issue, the share capital in Qlife will increase by SEK 131,773.44 to a total of SEK 2,129,359.20 and the number of shares will increase by 823,584 to a total of 13,308,495 shares, which entails a dilution of approximately 6.2 per cent of the total number of shares and votes in the Company after registration of the new shares with the Swedish Companies Registration Office.
Advisors
Eminova Partners Corporate Finance AB act as financial advisor, and Eminova Fondkommission AB has been appointed as issuing agent, in connection with the Directed Issue. Moll Wendén Advokatbyrå AB is legal advisor to Qlife.
