Reasons for the Rights Issue

BeammWave is now entering a new phase, which means that the Company will increasingly engage with customers in conceptual as well as paid product-preparatory projects. In addition, further development and subsequent commercialization of products will continue. To prepare for the intended market launch, the Company is conducting the Rights Issue to finance accelerated product development efforts, in collaboration with potential partners. The Company also intends to strengthen its sales force by adding local representatives in one or more additional markets.

In the event that the Rights Issue is fully subscribed, the gross proceeds from the Rights Issue will amount to approximately SEK 39.5 million (excluding any proceeds from the exercise of warrants of series TO 2024B, before deduction of issuance costs. The net proceeds, as well as any proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are planned to be distributed proportionally as follows and, in the event that not all measures can be implemented, according to the following priority order:

Increased sales efforts 20%
New product development 65%
Customer-specific product development 10%
Patent 5%

Subscription commitments, declarations of intent, and guarantee commitments

The Company has received subscription commitments and declarations of intent from a number of the Company's existing shareholders, including Concejo AB, as well as members of the Company's Board of Directors and management team, amounting to approximately SEK 8.0 million, equivalent to approximately 20.2 percent of the Rights Issue. Furthermore, the Company has entered into guarantee commitments with a number of existing shareholders and new investors, consisting of a so-called top guarantee of approximately SEK 3.0 million, equivalent to approximately 7.5 percent of the Rights Issue, and a so-called bottom guarantee of approximately SEK 15.7 million, equivalent to approximately 38.5 percent of the Rights Issue. The bottom guarantee secures, provided that subscriptions are made at least corresponding to the subscription commitments and declarations of intent, that approximately 60.0 percent of the Rights Issue is subscribed and paid for. The top guarantee secures, provided that subscriptions are made at least corresponding to the subscription commitments, declarations of intent, and the bottom guarantee commitments, that 67.5 percent of the Rights Issue is subscribed and paid for.

Both the top- and bottom guarantee commitments entitle to compensation of 12 percent of the guaranteed amount in cash. Instead of cash compensation, the guarantors may choose to receive guarantee compensation in the form of newly issued shares in the Company. If the guarantors choose to receive guarantee compensation in the form of newly issued shares, the guarantee compensation will amount to 16 percent of the guaranteed amount. The subscription price for any shares issued to the guarantors shall correspond to the volume-weighted average share price (VWAP) of the Company's shares on Nasdaq First North Growth Market during the subscription period of the Rights Issue (6 – 20 May 2024), however not lower than the subscription price in the Rights Issue.

Extraordinary General Meeting

The Board of Directors has today resolved to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting on 25 April 2024. A notice will be published by BeammWave shortly through a separate press release.

Preliminary Timetable for the Rights Issue

Shares and Dilution

Assuming full subscription in the Rights Issue, the share capital will increase by SEK 1,300,837.870 from SEK 1,300,837.870 to SEK 2,601,675.740 through the issuance of 13,161,630 shares, resulting in the total number of shares increasing from 13,161,630 to 26,323,260, representing a dilution effect of approximately 50.0 percent of the share capital and number of shares. If all warrants are fully exercised, the share capital will increase by an additional maximum of SEK 1,300,837.870 and the number of shares will increase by an additional maximum of 13,161,630 shares, equivalent to a dilution effect of approximately 33.3 percent in relation to the share capital and number of shares, assuming full subscription in the Rights Issue.

The total dilution effect if the Rights Issue is fully subscribed and all warrants of series TO 2024B are exercised amounts to a maximum of approximately 66.7 percent. Shareholders who do not participate in the Rights Issue have the opportunity to financially compensate themselves for this dilution by selling their unit rights.

If all guarantors would choose to receive guarantee compensation in the form of newly issued shares, there would be an additional dilution effect of approximately 1.6 percent in relation to the share capital and the number of shares given a fully subscribed Rights Issue (based on the lowest subscription price that may be set to the shares in the issue to the guarantors).
