The Board of Directors of ODI Pharma AB ("ODI" or the "Company") has today, on October 30, 2024, resolved to carry out an issue of shares (the "Rights Issue"), with preferential right for the Company's existing shareholders. The decision is subject to approval at the Extraordinary General Meeting scheduled to be held on November 19, 2024. The issue volume amounts to a maximum of approximately SEK 4.1 million before transaction related costs. In the case of oversubscription ODI can also decide to utilize an over-allotment (the “Over-Allotment”) to raise up to approximately additionally SEK 2.0 million through the Rights Issue. The Company has no obligation to utilize the Over-Allotment. The decision on the Rights Issue is secured via pre-subscription in writing by Volker Wiederrich (Chairman of the Board) and the existing shareholder Niclas Kappelin to a total of approximately 49 percent (corresponding to approximately SEK 2.0 million). A memorandum, containing a detailed description of the offer and operations, will be published latest the day before the first day of the subscription period in the Rights Issue. Notice of the Extraordinary General Meeting will be published in a separate press release. Publication of the Company's Q1-report has also been brought forward and the report will be published 22 November, 2024.

Motive and use of proceeds

In order to finance for example, the entering of new market and support growth in project Poland, the Company intends to carry out a rights issue of shares that can bring the Company a maximum of approximately SEK 4.1 million (before issue costs). ODI can also decide to utilize an Over-Allotment to raise up to approximately an additional SEK 2.0 million through the rights issue. The Company has no obligation to utilize this Over-Allotment. The transaction related costs for the Rights Issue are estimated to amount to a maximum of approximately SEK 0.9 million.

It is the Board's assessment that the net proceeds from a fully subscribed Rights Issue are sufficient to finance the Company's operations and plans until cash flow positivity. In 2025, ODI will focus on increasing revenue in Poland through existing partnerships while also preparing to enter a new market.

Terms for the Rights Issue

The Board of Directors has today, subject to the approval of the Extraordinary General meeting, decided on the implementation of an issue of a maximum of 1,268,333 shares. ODI's existing shareholders have preferential rights to subscribe for shares in proportion to their existing shareholdings. The public also has the right to subscribe for shares in the Rights Issue.

One (1) existing share in the Company on the record date of November 22, 2024 entitles to one (1) subscription right. Twelve (12) subscription rights entitle the holder to subscribe for one (1) share in ODI.  The subscription price in the Rights Issue has been set at SEK 3.22 per share.
