The preliminary outcome indicates that approximately 55 percent of the Rights Issue was subscribed for with subscription rights, and approximately 2 percent without subscription rights. The Company will therefore utilise subscription commitments and underwriting agreements amounting to 43 percent of the Rights Issue.

Shares will be allocated according to the principles set out in the information memorandum published on July 31, 2023. Information on allocation of shares subscribed for without support of subscription rights will be sent out to those who are allocated shares on August 18th, 2023, in the form of settlement notes.

The subscribed and allocated shares must be paid in cash according to the instructions on the settlement note. Shareholders registered with a nominee will be notified of their allocation in accordance with the nominee’s procedures. Only those who have been allotted shares will be notified. 

Simris Group will receive the maximum of SEK 24,3m from the Rights Issue and before issuance costs. Together with commitments associated with the Directed Issue previously announced by Simris, the Company will receive approximately SEK 40,5m before issuance costs.

Simris CEO, Julian Read commented, “considering the market conditions and summer vacation timing, the result of the Rights Issue is in-line with our cautious expectations. It was important that the Rights Issue was 100% secured so that investors could subscribe with a high level of confidence, knowing that the SEK 24,3m Rights Issue was guaranteed. We are grateful to existing shareholders that have demonstrated their continued support for Simris and we are delighted to have attracted significant new investors, with a commitment to the long-term and a specific interest in the field of Antibody Drug Conjugates. Now that the transaction has closed the Board and Management of the Simris Group will review the outcome considering the opportunities before us”.
