An announcement from Xplora Technologies AS ( (DE:86P) ) is now available.

Xplora Technologies AS has launched a NOK 150 million private placement of new shares at NOK 52 per share, engaging Nordea Bank Abp and Pareto Securities as managers. Net proceeds will bolster the balance sheet, finance the squeeze-out of remaining shares in Doro AB, reduce debt and support both organic and acquisition-driven growth initiatives.

Management and board members have pre-committed about NOK 4.55 million and agreed to six-month lock-ups, signalling confidence in the equity raise. The offer, directed at selected institutional and qualified investors under prospectus exemptions, deviates from shareholders’ pre-emptive rights, but the board argues a private placement is in shareholders’ common interest, with a potential subsequent repair offering contemplated for eligible existing investors.
