In addition to previously entered subscription commitments of approximately SEK 2.5 million, corresponding to around 15.8 percent of the Rights Issue, additional subscription commitments to subscribe for shares amounting to approximately SEK 0.3 million, corresponding to around 1.7 percent of the Rights Issue, have been secured. As a result, total subscription commitments amount to approximately SEK 2.8 million, representing around 17.5 percent of the total Rights Issue amount. To further strengthen the completion of the Rights Issue, the Board of Directors of Qlucore has decided to enter into guarantee commitments with a consortium of investors amounting to approximately SEK 13.3 million, corresponding to around 82.5 percent of the total Rights Issue amount. The Rights Issue is now fully secured, with 100 percent of the total amount covered through subscription and guarantee commitments.

Carl-Johan Ivarsson, CEO of Qlucore, comments: "We are pleased that the Rights Issue is now fully secured. This demonstrates continued strong confidence from both existing shareholders and new investors, providing a solid foundation for executing on our growth plans within precision diagnostics."

For the guarantee commitments, compensation will be paid in the form of new shares in the Company corresponding to twenty-five (25) percent of the guaranteed amount. The subscription price for the shares issued as guarantee compensation will be the same as the subscription price per share in the Rights Issue, i.e., SEK 0.50 per share, which the Board of Directors of the Company considers to be in line with market terms. No compensation will be paid for the subscription commitments provided. The subscription and guarantee commitments are not secured by bank guarantees, escrow funds, pledges, or similar arrangements.

The Board of Directors’ resolution on the Rights Issue is conditional upon approval by an Extraordinary General Meeting, scheduled to be held on 31 July 2025.

Information to distributors

In order to meet the product governance requirements contained in: (a) Directive 2014/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on markets in financial instruments, as amended (“MiFID II”); (b) Articles 9 and 10 of the Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing MiFID II; and (c) local implementing measures (together the “MiFID II Product Governance Requirements”), and to disclaim any non-contractual, contractual or other liability towards any "manufacturer" (within the meaning of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements) that might otherwise arise, the offered shares have been subject to a product approval process which has determined that these securities are: (i) suitable for a target market of retail investors and investors meeting the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) suitable for distribution through all distribution channels as permitted under MiFID II (the “Target Market Assessment”).

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Company’s shares may decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment; the Company’s shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Company’s shares is only suitable for investors who do not require a guaranteed income or capital protection and who (either alone or with an appropriate financial or other advisor) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and have sufficient resources to bear any losses that may result from it. The Target Market Assessment does not affect any other requirements relating to contractual, legal or regulatory sales restrictions in connection with the Rights Issue.

The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal, or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Rights Issue. For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, purchase, or take any other action concerning the Company’s shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Company’s shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
