(registered seat: 1055 Budapest, Honvéd utca 20.; hereinafter: Company) hereby informs market participants as follows.
The Company’s public offering of shares was launched on 25 October 2021, as part of which the retail sale (hereinafter: Retail Sale) of shares began on 25 October 2021 in accordance with the prospectus dated 14 October 2021 (hereinafter: Prospectus) and was closed at 12:01 a.m. on 28 October 2021 , while the institutional sale (hereinafter: Institutional Sale) took place between 25 October 2021 and 9 November 2021, i.e. persons who qualify as institutional investors in the meaning of the Prospectus were able to submit their share subscription applications during this period (hereinafter: Institutional Sale Period).
In accordance with the Prospectus, the allotment relating to the public offering of shares took place within 2 workdays from the end of the Institutional Sale Period, i.e. no later than 11 November 2021. Furthermore, the selling price of the new shares to be issued as part of the public offering of shares was also determined no later than 11 November 2021.
The Company determined a selling price of HUF 117 per unit for the new shares in agreement with OTP Bank Nyrt. as lead-manager (hereinafter: Lead-manager).
During the course of allotment, the Company and the Lead-manager adopted the following decisions in accordance with the provisions of the Prospectus:
• the maximum amount available for Retail Sale was increased in such a way that a total amount of HUF 500,000,000 was regrouped from the maximum amount available for Institutional Sale;
• the maximum amount available for Retail Sale increased through the rearrangement was raised by an additional 25% and oversubscription was accepted up to this increased issue value, as a result of which the final maximum issue value for Retail Sale was HUF 2,500,000,000;
• the maximum amount available for Institutional Sale reduced through the rearrangement was raised by an additional 25% and oversubscription was accepted up to this increased issue value, as a result of which the final maximum issue value for Institutional Sale was HUF 7,500,000,000.
As a result, (i) a total of 64,102,564 units of shares were distributed among institutional investors as part of the Institutional Sale for a total issue value of HUF 7,499,999,988 at a price of HUF 117 each; and (ii) a total of 21,367,521 units of shares were distributed among retail investors as part of the Retail Sale for a total issue value of HUF 2,499,999,957 at a price of HUF 117 each. Given that the selling price was lower than the maximum price, the difference was returned to retail investors as set out in the Prospectus within 7 days from the date of closure of the placement process, i.e. no later than 16 November 2021.
The settlement of the new shares, i.e. the crediting of new shares to the investors’ securities accounts, is expected to take place with a value date of 24 November 2021, and this is also the date when the shares will be admitted to trading on the Budapest Stock Exchange.
