Enlabs Makes a Mandatory Public Offer to the Shareholders of Global Gaming

Enlabs announced on August 26, 2020, that Enlabs had acquired 9,878,086 shares in Global Gaming 555 AB on the same day, for a purchase price corresponding to SEK 11 per share (where 50 percent of the purchase price was paid in cash and 50 percent was paid through newly issued shares in Enlabs), and thus increased Enlabs’ ownership from 29.89 percent to 54.06 percent of all shares and votes in Global Gaming, which meant that Enlabs was required to make a mandatory public offer for the remaining shares in Global Gaming in accordance with the Takeover rules for certain trading platforms (the “Takeover rules”).

All consideration alternatives correspond to SEK 11 per Global Gaming share. Enlabs will not increase the offered consideration.

The shares in both Enlabs and Global Gaming are listed on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market (“First North”).
