Hepsor’s management board member Henri Laks said that such an impressive oversubscription is great recognition for the company and shows the desire of investors to participate in the growth story of local businesses. “The interest in subscription for Hepsor shares was high and exceeded our boldest expectations many times over. We are very pleased about this and grateful to all the subscribers. We take this unexpectedly good result and the capital we have raised with a great sense of responsibility,” said Laks and adding that, due to the high level of interest, the distribution of shares was very difficult to carry out, both in terms of early subscribers and in view of the very large total number of subscribers.
Offer Shares allocated to the investors are expected to be transferred to the securities accounts of the investors on or about 24 November 2021. Trading with the Shares on the Baltic Main List of Nasdaq Tallinn Stock Exchange is expected to commence on or about 26 November 2021.
