Stockholm, 7 November 2022

ZetaDisplay AB (publ) has mandated ABG Sundal Collier AB to arrange a series of fixed income investor meetings commencing on 8 November 2022.

The meetings will be used to discuss a potential issue of SEK denominated senior secured callable floating rate bonds in an amount up to SEK 400 million with a tenor of four years, subject to, inter alia, market conditions, and alternatives to handle the maturity of ZetaDisplay’s existing unsecured bonds.

The net proceeds from a new bond issue will, inter alia, be applied towards repayment in full of ZetaDisplay’s existing unsecured bonds (ISIN: SE0013109568) with maturity on 20 March 2023.

In connection with and subject to a successful issue, ZetaDisplay may offer holders of its existing unsecured bonds the option to exchange their current holding for new secured bonds upon issuance at a price to be determined in connection with the pricing of the new issue.
