The Board of Directors resolution was made by virtue of authorisations by the annual general meeting of the company on 5 May 2020. The ordinary shares were subscribed for by Quality Base AS, and payment were made by set-off of part of the purchase price. The subscription price corresponded to SEK 53.66 per share, and the subscription price is based on the volume-weighted average price for the Karnov Group AB (publ) share over the last 20 trading days prior to the day of signing. The total issue volume thus amounted to approximately SEK 9.6 million. Through the issue of the shares, the company’s share capital increases by approximately SEK 2,749. The 178,675 new shares will lead to a dilution of less than 0.1 percent.
