Makes a targeted offset issue of approximately 2.1 MSEK as partial payment for previously completed acquisitions
STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN - The Board of Directors of BTS Group AB (publ) has today decided to implement a directed new issue of 15,704 B-shares, supported by the authorization given at the Annual General Meeting in May 2018. The share issue price has been set at 132 SEK. The issue has been directed to former owners and founders of the German company MTAC, which BTS acquired in 2017.
The issue price has been determined according to the acquisition agreement by a calculated volume weighted average price per trading day for the company's B-share on Nasdaq Stockholm during December 2018. The shares are issued now in line with the purchase agreement.
The share issue relates to final settlement of SEK 2,072,928 of initial purchase according to the acquisition agreement. The reason for deviating from the shareholders' preferential right is to be able to settle the additional purchase amount in a timely and cost-effective manner.
The total number of issued shares before the issue was 19,013,916. After the issue there are 19,029,620 shares in total. BTS's share capital increases from SEK 6,337,972 to 6,343,207.
