Background and motive

In June 2022, the Company announced that it had initiated extensive restructuring. The Company partially reduced the number of employees and employed consultants. The Company also created a new management group with a focus on finance, sales, and product. The purpose of the change is to create a better functioning organization, which is more cost-effective and fast-paced in order to be able to serve the Company’s existing customers and partners to a significantly greater extent. It is the Company’s goal to increase the number of new B2B agreements and at the same time increase engagement among existing partners and end users, with a focus on the European market. This is to increase the Company’s revenue and reach profitability over the next 12 months. The Company believes that the restructuring will help them achieve the above-mentioned goals.

The company intends to mainly use the net proceeds from the Rights Issue in the manner presented below:

  • Offset or repayment of previous bridge financing, approximately 40 percent
  • Expanded sales and marketing activities with the goal of increasing the number of partners within the Company’s B2B business and expanding business with existing customers, approximately 15 percent
  • Operating costs, variable and fixed costs, approximately 35 percent
  • Further development of the Company’s product offering to ensure customer satisfaction among existing customers and attract new, approximately 10 percent
