Copenhagen, March 29, 2023
Konsolidator finalizes private placement of DKK 18.5 million, contingent on raising a minimum of DKK 11.5 million in long-term debt
Konsolidator has received commitments for additional DKK 2.5 million in the ongoing capital increase and finalizes a private placement of DKK 18.5 million. The subscription commitments are contingent on reaching a minimum financing of DKK 30 million including a long-term loan of minimum DKK 11.5 million.
On March 20, 2023, Konsolidator announced (see company announcement no 5-2023) the expectation of raising DKK 16-18.5 million from a group of investors with the DKK 16 million already committed. Today, Konsolidator can announce that the last DKK 2.5 million has been subscribed, and the private placement has reached the maximum of DKK 18.5 million.
The subscription commitments were conditional on Konsolidator being able to raise a minimum of DKK 16.0 million in gross proceeds in equity capital before May 5, 2023, and reaching a deal on refinancing the convertible loan of DKK 25.0 million with Formue Nord due on September 1, 2023 (see company announcement no. 8-2021). This commitment has now been fulfilled with the private placement. Further, fulfilling the private placement also depends on the funding of DKK 5 million falls into place for the holding companies of CEO Claus Finderup Grove and CFO Jack Skov.
Konsolidator needs an additional DKK 11.5 million in a long-term loan to reach minimum financing of DKK 30 million. With the net proceeds from the total financing of DKK 30 million, Konsolidator will have enough funds to repay the loan to Formue Nord and finance the operations for 2023. Konsolidator plans to raise DKK 15 million in a long-term loan equalling a total financing package of 33.5 million.
CEO Claus Finderup Grove comments, "With the recent 2.5 million subscribed, we expect to find the remaining DKK 11.5 million before the deadline of May 5. We are thankful for the investors' confidence in our product and growth journey, which is essential for closing a sustainable long-term loan agreement for Konsolidator."
