Berlin, 19 April 2016, 16:31 – The Management Board and Supervisory Board of YOC AG (Frankfurt Stock Exchange, Prime Standard, ISIN DE0005932735) have today resolved to implement a capital increase from authorised capital against cash contributions in the amount of 180,505 new shares under the exclusion of subscription rights of existing shareholders. Within the framework of a private placement, all shares are to be placed with current and new investors at the issue price of EUR 2.77 per share. The investors also include Solventis Wertpapierhandelsbank GmbH. The gross issue proceeds from the capital increase will come to around EUR 0.5 million. The company’s capital stock will thereby increase by EUR 180,505.00 (equivalent to about 5.8 %), and will, after the entry of the capital increase in the commercial register, amount to EUR 3,292,978.00.
The new shares will be released for trading in the regulated market (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange without prospectus.
In addition, the company has agreed upon concomitant debt financing at standard market conditions, maturing end fourth quarter 2018, which will bring a further inflow of EUR 0.5 million for YOC AG.
The funds derived from the capital increase serve to strengthen equity and shall be used, together with the funds from debt financing, mainly for the further development of business, in particular the development of new products.
Further capital measures are not intended in the short and medium term.
