Oslo, 15 May 2023. Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement by Norsk Titanium AS (“Norsk Titanium” or the “Company”) on 30 March 2023 where the Company announced the completion of a private placement raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 89 million (the “Private Placement”) and that the board of directors would consider carrying out a subsequent offering of up to 2,000,000 new shares in the Company (the “Subsequent Offering”).
The Company has decided not to proceed with the Subsequent Offering. Since announcement of completion of the Private Placement, the Company’s shares have traded on Euronext Growth Oslo, with sufficient trading volume, at prices close to or below the subscription price in the Private Placement of NOK 3. Accordingly, any shareholders wishing to neutralize the dilutive effect of the Private Placement have had the opportunity to purchase shares in the Company in the market, at prices close to or below what would have been the subscription price in a Subsequent Offering. In light of this, the Company has resolved not to proceed with a Subsequent Offering that would have resulted in additional costs for the Company.
