Subscription and allotment

The new share issue of approx. DKK 18.6 million was subscribed to approx. DKK 402 million, including subscription commitments of approx. DKK 11.2 million. Due to the extensive interest, allotment takes place by random selection (i.e. lottery) in accordance with the allocation principles stated in the memorandum. The shares (excl. the shares subscribed by pre-subscribers who are guaranteed full allocation) will be distributed in minimum portions of 400 shares to a total of approx. 2,100 new shareholders out of the total number of subscribers of 11,812 who subscribed in the new share issue. This way, the maximum number of new shares, 2,113,000 in total, will be issued, and STENOCARE will receive DKK 18,594,400 before costs related to the issue of approximately DKK 1.4 million.  

Settlement notes are scheduled to be sent to all allotted shareholders today, October 12, 2018. Subscribers that do not get an allocation of shares will not receive a settlement note.  

Thomas Skovlund Schnegelsberg, CEO of STENOCARE, comments:

“We are of course overwhelmed and incredibly grateful for the great interest that has been shown for our new share issue. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome all new shareholders. While we are delighted with the interest shown, it is unfortunate that we have not been able to assign shares to all who have chosen to subscribe. If possible, we would of course have liked to oblige everyone and to those who have not been assigned any or only a part of the shares you have subscribed for, we can only apologize. I hope you will continue to follow our journey when we start the trading on Spotlight Stock Market on October 26, 2018. I would also like to extend my gratitude to all those parties who, in one way or another, have been involved and made this all possible such as Sedermera Fondkommission, Gemstone Capital and Nordnet Bank among many others. We have an exciting time ahead of us and we are now a few steps closer to realizing our vision of improving the quality of life of patients with chronic pain and suffering.”
