BioPorto A/S announces results of rights issue
BioPorto A/S (“BioPorto” or the “Company”) today announces that the
rights issue launched on May 30, 2023 (the “Offering”), will raise
gross proceeds of approximately DKK 43 million upon receipt of
payment for the subscribed shares later this week.
“We are pleased to announce the Offering’s
results. The proceeds from the rights issue will strengthen
BioPorto’s capital resources, allowing the Company to advance its
De Novo application for an NGAL test through review by the US Food
and Drug Administration, grow revenues in Europe and other markets,
and expand the total addressable market for NGAL tests in the US,”
said Tony Pare, BioPorto’s Chief Executive Officer. “I would like
to thank our shareholders and new investors, as well as the entire
Board and members of the management team who participated in the
Offering, for their support and continued trust in BioPorto.”
A total of 42,977,456 New Shares were subscribed
for prior to the expiration of the subscription period. Of those,
35,724,802 New Shares were subscribed for by exercise of
pre-emptive rights and the balance was subscribed for pursuant to
separate undertakings and advance subscription commitments.
The Company expects to complete the Offering
when payment of subscription amounts has taken place and the New
Shares have been registered with the Danish Business Authority,
currently expected to be Friday, June 23, 2023. The New Shares
will be admitted to trading and official listing on Nasdaq
Copenhagen A/S under the Company’s permanent ISIN-code
(DK0011048619) as soon as possible thereafter, currently expected
to be no later than Monday, June 26, 2023.
As stated in company announcement no. 10 of May
30, 2023, the Offering may be withdrawn at any time prior to the
registration of the capital increase relating to the Offering with
the Danish Business Authority. Any such withdrawal would be
notified via Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S.
The Offering’s expected timetable remains
unchanged.
