  • Cash flow-generating investments, approximately 30 percent.
  • Investments in new companies within renewable energy and real estate projects, approximately 35 percent.

  • The rights issue entails an issue of a maximum of 2,190,326 units, corresponding to 10,951,630 shares and 6,570,978 warrants of series TO2.

Terms and conditions for the warrants of series TO2

  • Each warrant of series TO2 entitles the holder to subscribe for one (1) new share in the Company.
  • The subscription price for subscription of shares by virtue of the warrants amounts to seventy (70) percent of the volume-weighted average price of the Company's share during the period from and including 23 April 2024 up until and including 7 May 2024, however, not less than the quota value of the share (currently EUR 0.02) and not more than SEK 3.00.
