13.6.2025 20:00:01 EEST | Eagle Filters Group Oyj | Inside information
Based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of the Company on 15 April 2025, the Board of Directors of Eagle Filters Group Oyj (“Eagle Filters Group” or the “Company”) have on 13 June 2025 resolved on a directed share issue of EUR 1 270 000 to a group of private investors (the “Share Issue”).
In the Share Issue, 19 538 458 new shares (the “Offer Shares”) were offered. The subscription price in the Share Issue was set at EUR 0.065 per Offer Share and amounts to a total of EUR 1 270 000. The entire subscription price of the Offer Shares will be recorded in the Company's reserve for invested unrestricted equity.
The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders’ preemptive rights was to raise capital in a time and cost-effective manner. The company has tied up working capital for a large customer project, and has limited sources of additional working capital and debt financing to compensate for the temporary increase in working capital needs. Eagle is a subcontractor to this project where a large corporation has won a contract to deliver various gas turbine components. Eagle’s deliveries for the project are expected to commence in the near future. The Board has decided that carrying out a Directed share issue is the best solution for all company shareholders, as organizing a rights issue would cause significantly higher costs and there would be a material risk that the rights issue would remain substantially undersubscribed. In addition, the timetable for organizing a rights issue would negatively affect the company´s ability to carry out its business as planned. Considering the Company´s operating environment, with fast-paced changes in working capital needs (due to for example new orders, delays in inbound material or customer payments) as well as the company's limited sources of working capital- and debt financing a Directed Share Issue is as this point the best way to raise capital in a time and cost-effective manner.
The subscription price equals to a discount of 5.2% to the closing price of the Company's share on First North Growth Market Finland on 12 June 2025. The discount related to the subscription price has been negotiated.
The Offer Shares has been offered for subscription to the following investors in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription right:
Investor | Number of Offer Shares | Subscription price in total (EUR) |
Joint Effects LLC | 6 153 845 | 400 000 |
Thorkel Investments Oy | 6 153 845 | 400 000 |
Ville Väätäjä | 6 153 846 | 400 000 |
Janne Vertanen | 307 692 | 20 000 |
Matti Vuoria | 384 615 | 25 000 |
Ultima Thule Oy | 384 615 | 25 000 |
19 538 458 | 1 270 000 |
The Offer Shares has been offered to current shareholders of the company. The reason for offering shares to the company´s current shareholders is that the company has limited sources of additional working capital- and debt financing to compensate for the temporary increase in working capital needs. The Company's current shareholders, to whom shares are offered have as a result of negotiations agreed to finance the company.
The Offer Shares represent approximately 8.7 % of the outstanding shares and votes in the Company after the Share Issue. Following the Share Issue, the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company will be 223 610 864.
To execute Eagle Filters growth-strategy, management is actively evaluating ways for more effective use of capital. Due to postponed deliveries and increased levels of finished goods inventory, working capital requirements have risen, and the company is dependent on incoming proceeds from new orders. If the business does not develop as planned, Eagle Filters Group plans to cut costs accordingly and/or raise the necessary funding to support its working capital, investment needs, and liquidity.
