Precise Biometrics AB (“Precise”) today announces that it has completed a
private placement of 22,000,000 new shares, providing the company with
approximately SEK 86 million before transaction costs.

The private placement, which was announced on the 5thof September, 2013, has
allowed Precise to place 22,000,000 new shares with international intuitional
investors and qualified investors in Sweden at a price of SEK 3.90 per share
through an accelerated book-building procedure.

The proceeds from the Private Placement will further enhance the company’s
working capital related to growth and order financing.

“We are excited about the interest shown by investors, both in Sweden and
internationally, and welcome them on board as shareholders. The transaction
strengthens our financial position and enables the Company to capitalize on the
exciting opportunities arising as the market grows and keep up the high tempo in
our current expansion”, says Thomas Marschall, President and CEO of Precise
Biometrics.

For the purpose of the private placement, the Board of Director of Precise has
resolved, pursuant to the authorization given by the 2013 annual general
meeting, on a directed issue of 22,000,000 new shares. The purpose of the
resolution to issue new shares, deviating from the shareholders’ preferential
rights, is primarily to take advantage of an opportunity to raise capital on
advantageous terms from new, from a financial perspective, strategically
important owners, thereby promoting Precise’s ability to create further value
for all shareholders.

The new issue results in an equity dilution of 6.4 based on the number of shares
after the new issue. The subscription price has been established through a
customary book-building procedure. In relation to the 10 day volume weighted
average share price on the 5thof September after market close, the subscription
price corresponds to a discount of 8 percent. In relation to the market close
price on the 5thof September, the subscription price corresponds to a discount
of 9 percent.

Through the issue, the number of shares in Precise increases by 22,000,000 from
323,306,094 shares to a total of 345,306,094 shares and the share capital
increases by SEK 6,160,000.00 from SEK 90,525,706.38 to a total of SEK
96,685,706.38
