Acconeer intends to carry out a directed new share issue

By

Acconeer AB ("Acconeer" or the "Company") today announces its intention to carry out a directed new share issue of approximately SEK 60 million to Swedish and international institutional investors (the "Directed New Share Issue"). Alps Alpine Co., Ltd., a world-leading manufacturer of electronic components, modules, and systems for cars, has undertaken to subscribe for shares corresponding to a maximum of USD 3 million in the Directed New Share Issue.

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN WHOLE OR IN PART, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, IN THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, CANADA, NEW ZEALAND, HONG KONG, JAPAN, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA, SOUTH KOREA OR ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION WOULD BE UNLAWFUL OR WOULD REQUIRE REGISTRATION OR ANY OTHER MEASURES. PLEASE REFER TO IMPORTANT INFORMATION AT THE END OF THE PRESS RELEASE.

The Directed New Share Issue is intended to be carried out with deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights and with the support of the authorization granted by the annual general meeting held on 14 April 2020. Acconeer has engaged Pareto Securities AB ("Pareto Securities") to investigate the conditions for a new issue of shares through a so-called accelerated bookbuilding procedure.

The subscription price for the shares in the Directed New Share Issue is to be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding procedure, which will begin no earlier than 17:31 today, May 4, 2020, and end before the commencement of trading on Nasdaq First North Growth Market on May 5, 2020. The bookbuilding procedure may, at the discretion of the Company or Pareto Securities, close earlier or later and may be cancelled at any time.

The reasons for the deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights are to diversify the shareholder base among Swedish and international institutional investors and at the same time raise capital in a time efficient manner. The proceeds from the Directed New Share Issue are intended to be used to finance the development of the Company's next generation platform. In addition, proceeds are intended to be used for other product and market development activities, with the aim of increasing the pace of commercialisation of Acconeer's products. The board of directors' assessment is that the subscription price in the Directed New Share Issue will be in accordance with market conditions, since it will be determined through an accelerated bookbuilding procedure.

In connection with the Directed New Share Issue, the Company has undertaken, with customary exceptions, not to issue additional shares for a period of 180 calendar days after the announcement of the outcome of the Directed New Share Issue. Board members and persons of the management holding shares have undertaken not to sell any shares in Acconeer for a period of 90 calendar days after the announcement of the outcome of the Directed New Share Issue, with customary exceptions.

The Directed New Share Issue is subject to a resolution by the board of directors of Acconeer, pursuant to the issue authorization given by the annual general meeting on April 14, 2020 to issue new shares, following the close of the bookbuilding procedure.

Pareto Securities AB is acting as Sole Manager and Bookrunner and Advokatfirman Schjødt is legal adviser in connection with the Directed New Share Issue.

Furthermore, remuneration to the auditor shall be paid in accordance with the approved invoice.
  • The AGM resolved to adopt the Board of Directors' proposal on the implementation of an incentive program ("Warrant Program 2020/2023") with (A) issuance of warrants series 2020/2023 with deviation from shareholders' preferential rights and (B) approval of the transfer of warrants to employees. No more than 300,000 warrants shall be issued to the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary Acconeer Incentive AB with the right and obligation for the subsidiary to later transfer the warrants to the Company's employees. The warrants shall be transferred by the subsidiary on 20 April 2020 and on 2 November 2020, the transfer shall be made at market value at the respective transfer dates and warrants shall be allotted in accordance with the principles set forth in the Board of Directors' proposal.

However, such issues may not cause the share capital in the Company to exceed the Company's highest allowed share capital according to the articles of association. The Board of Directors may deviate from the shareholders' preferential rights. The reason for the Board of Directors' authorisation to deviate from the shareholders' preferential rights is to enable the Company's possibilities to raise new capital and to take advantage of future opportunities to attract new long-term owners and to finance the Company's growth strategy. The authorisation also includes the right to decide on payment for the issued shares by set-off, in kind or with other conditions as referred in Chap. 13 Sec. 5 item 6 of the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslagen (2005:551)). At a deviation from the shareholders' preferential rights, the issue rate shall be determined in accordance with market conditions.

Acconeer awarded three design wins by ALPS ALPINE for presence detection in cars to a European premium car manufacturer

By

The radar technology company Acconeer AB has been chosen by ALPS ALPINE to deliver radar sensors for the use case presence detection in cars to a European premium car manufacturer. Acconeer estimates the total potential value of the design wins to US$ 9-12 million over three years starting in 2022. By "design win" Acconeer refers to that the company's radar sensor has been selected for use in a customer product, but it is not equivalent to that an order has been placed.

These are the first design wins in this area for Acconeer. ALPS ALPINE is a world-leading manufacturer of electronic components, modules, and systems for cars.

Acconeer's unique ultra-low power and high precision radar sensor will be included in several of ALPS ALPINE's products serving different use cases. The new design wins announced today are for the use case presence detection, which is driven by industry standards such as European and Australasian New Car Assessment Programs (Euro NCAP and ANCAP). They provide consumers with independent information on the level of safety offered by vehicles in the event of a severe accident. In other geographies, demand for sensor technology will be driven by legislation such as the US "Hot Cars Act".

Lars Lindell, CEO of Acconeer, comments: "We have teamed up with ALPS ALPINE for a couple of years, and we are very pleased that they have managed to win business in this important lifesaving use case. We look forward to many more design wins in the future."

Acconeer develops integration-ready Entry Module with low system cost

By

The planned Entry Module, XM132, will be power and cost-efficient with optimized performance for a range of pre-defined use cases. It will be released during the second half of 2020, to complement Acconeer's module offering, which currently consists of the XM112 High-Performance Module and XM122 IoT Module. With XM132, Acconeer takes the next step in providing a module designed for smooth integration into customer products.

With a solderable design combining an ARM Cortex M0 microcontroller unit (MCU) with the A111 radar sensor, the XM132 Entry Module enables radar-based use cases with ultra-low power consumption at an outstanding system cost. To optimize performance, the module will be provided with software tailored for specific use cases. This way, performance requirements can be met at a more efficient cost for customers implementing these selected focus use cases.

"By combining our A111 radar sensor with an M0 MCU, we can provide a product designed to meet commercial sensor module integration requirements, with a shorter time-to-market for customers. To get the best possible performance on a small and cost-efficient system like the ARM Cortex M0 MCU, we will provide dedicated software optimized for this platform. The module SW will come in different versions targeting some of our most common customer use cases fit for integration on a M0-based system," says Mikael Rosenhed, Acconeer's Head of Product Management.

The ARM Cortex M7-based XM112 High-Performance Module was released in December 2018, to let customers evaluate their use cases on an embedded system with high performance. In October 2019, the XM122 IoT Module was launched targeting connected battery-powered use cases, combining the A111 radar sensor with an ARM Cortex M4 MCU and integrated connectivity such as Bluetooth. Both modules have been very well received by the market, opening up new business segments, which is why Acconeer has decided to take the next step and complement the product offering with the XM132 Entry Module.
