The final outcome in Eurobattery Minerals AB’s (Nordic Growth Market: BAT and Börse Stuttgart: EBM; in short: “Eurobattery” or the “Company”) rights issue of approximately SEK 29.3 million (the “Rights issue”) shows that 28,288,738 units were subscribed for, corresponding to a subscription rate of approximately 77.3 per cent. Eurobattery thereby receives total issue proceeds of approximately SEK 22.6 million (of which SEK 1.6 million is obtained through set-off of debts) before issue costs. The net proceeds will, among other things, be used for development of the battery mineral project Hautalampi and repayment of interest-bearing debts.

Final outcome

The Rights issue comprised a total of 36,594,058 units. One (1) unit consists of two (2) new shares, one (1) warrant of series TO4 and one (1) warrant of series TO5. The final outcome shows that 26,230,296 units, corresponding to approximately 71.7 per cent of the Rights issue, were subscribed for with unit rights. 2,058,442 units, corresponding to approximately 5.6 per cent of the Rights issue, were subscribed for without unit rights. The outcome implies that no underwriting commitments will be claimed. Altogether, the Rights issue was subscribed to approximately 77.3 per cent.

Other information

Through the Rights issue, the Company receives gross proceeds of approximately SEK 22.6 million (of which SEK 1.6 million is obtained through set-off of debts). The number of shares will increase by 56,577,476, from 36,594,058 to 93,171,534, when the new shares are registered at the Swedish Companies Registration Office which is expected to take place in the beginning of February 2024. The share capital will increase by SEK 22,630,990.40, from SEK 14,637,623.20 to SEK 37,268,613.60, after consideration of the share capital reduction decided at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company on 27 December 2023 which will be registered in connection with the registration of the Rights issue at the Swedish Companies Registration Office. The dilution for the shareholders who did not participate in the Rights issue amounts to approximately 60.7 per cent.

Trading in paid subscribed units (“BTU”) continues until the registration of the Rights issue at the Swedish Companies Registration Office.

Altogether, 28,288,738 warrants of series TO4 and 28,288,738 warrants of series TO5 will be issued, which will entitle the holders to subscribe for one new share per warrant during the periods 7 May – 21 May 2024 and 7 October – 18 October 2024 respectively. Upon full exercise of all warrants of series TO4 and TO5, the Company’s share will be diluted by an additional approximately 37.8 per cent.
