Regulatory News:
Clariane (Paris:CLARI), Europe's leading community for care in
times of vulnerability (the "Company") announces that the
reserved capital increase of approximately 92.1 million euros for
the benefit of HLD1 , Flat Footed2 and Leima3 (the "Reserved
Capital Increase") was completed today.
The gross amount of the Reserved Capital Increase, including the
issue premium, is €92,099,997.60, corresponding to the issue of
35,423,076 new shares with a par value of €0.01, issued at a unit
subscription price of €2.60. The Reserved Capital Increase was
subscribed for approximately 74.1 million euros by the HLD Europe
investment group, for approximately 15 million euros by the Flat
Footed fund and for approximately 3 million euros by the Leima
Valeurs fund. Following the Reserved Capital Increase, HLD Europe
holds 20.02 % of the Company's share capital, Flat Footed holds
10.53 % of the Company's share capital and Leima Valeurs holds 5.18
% of the Company's share capital.
The net proceeds of this Reserved Capital Increase will be used
to early repay the real estate bridge loan, the outstanding
principal of which is 175 million euros. The balance of the
bridging loan will therefore be reduced to 85 million euros.
Following completion of the Reserved Capital Increase, the
Company's share capital stands at €1,423,923.05, comprising
142,392,305 ordinary shares.
The corporate offices as directors of Mr Jean-Bernard Lafonta,
HLD Europe and Mr Ondřej Novák, whose appointments were approved by
the Combined General Meeting of 10 June 2024, take effect from
today.
It should be noted that Flat Footed LLC, a US investment
manager, acting through its managed funds FF Hybrid LP, GP Recovery
Fund LLC and Flat Footed Series LLC - Fund 4, obtained from the
French Ministry of the Economy, prior to the completion of the
Reserved Capital Increase, an exemption from the request for
authorisation provided for in the third paragraph of Article R.
151-5 of the French Monetary and Financial Code. Flat Footed LLC
had applied for this exemption because it would hold 10.53% of
Clariane's share capital and voting rights (on a non-diluted basis)
following completion of the Reserved Capital Increase, thereby
exceeding the ownership threshold corresponding to one-tenth of
Clariane's voting rights.
It should also be noted that Predica has acquired
Investissements PSP's entire stake in the Company, as announced by
Predica in a press release dated 5 June 2024, and will hold, on the
settlement and delivery day that should take place on 13 June 2024,
21.1% of the Company's capital and voting rights.
HLD also indicated that it entered into an agreement on 11 June
2024 to acquire all of the 8,048,260 shares held by Holding
Malakoff Humanis (i.e. 5.7% of the capital based on the current
capital), excluding the preferential subscription rights linked to
the capital increase with preferential subscription rights. The
settlement and delivery of this acquisition should take place prior
to the settlement and delivery of the capital increase with
preferential subscription rights.
Upcoming events:
5 August 2024 - Sales and results for the
1er half-year 2024
23 October 2024 - Sales for the 3ème quarter
2024
