OSLO, Norway, Oct. 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement on 18 October 2019 where Nordic Nanovector ASA (OSE: NANO) (the “Company”) announced the successful completion of a private placement raising gross proceeds of NOK 242,525,624 (the “Private Placement”) and that the board of directors would consider to carry out a repair offering of up to 2,204,778 new shares (the “Repair Offering”).
The Company has decided not to proceed with the Repair Offering. Since announcement of completion of the Private Placement on 18 October 2019, the Company’s shares have traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange, with sufficient trading volume, at prices close to or below the subscription price in the Private Placement of NOK 22. Accordingly, any shareholders wishing to neutralize the dilutive effect of the Private Placement have had the opportunity to purchase shares in the Company in the market, at prices close to or below what would have been the subscription price in a Repair Offering. In light of this, the Company has resolved not to proceed with a Repair Offering that would have resulted in considerable preparation costs for the Company.
