OSLO, Norway , June 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement made by Hexagon Composites ASA (the "Company") on 7 May 2026 regarding the successful private placement of 68,750,000 new shares in the Company (the "Private Placement Shares") at a price of NOK 8.00 per share, raising gross proceeds of NOK 550 million (the "PrivatePlacement"), and a potential subsequent offering (the "SubsequentOffering") of up to 15,625,000 new shares in the Company (the "OfferShares") at the same subscription price as in the Private Placement. Reference is further made to the resolutions made by the annual general meeting of the Company held on 4 June 2026 to, inter alia, (i) issue the Private Placement Shares, and (ii) authorize the Board of Directors of the Company to issue up to 15,625,000 Offer Shares in the Subsequent Offering.

Approval and publication of prospectus
The Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority has today, 5 June 2026, approved a prospectus prepared by the Company for the Subsequent Offering and the listing of the Offer Shares and the Private Placement Shares on Euronext Oslo Børs (the "Prospectus"). The Prospectus, including the subscription form for the Subsequent Offering, will, subject to regulatory restrictions in certain jurisdictions, be made available at www.dnb.no/emisjoner.

The Subsequent Offering
The Subsequent Offering consists of an offer of up to 15,625,000 Offer Shares at a subscription price of NOK 8.00 per Offer Share (being the same subscription price as in the Private Placement), thereby raising gross proceeds of up to NOK 125 million.

The Subsequent Offering will be directed towards shareholders in the Company as of 7 May 2026 (as registered in the VPS on 11 May 2026), who (i) were not included in the pre-sounding phase of the Private Placement; (ii) were not allocated shares in the Private Placement and (iii) are not resident in a jurisdiction where such offering would be unlawful, or for jurisdictions other than Norway, would require any prospectus filing, registration or similar action ("EligibleShareholders").

Each Eligible Shareholder will receive 0.12 non-tradeable subscription right (the "SubscriptionRights") for each share held by such Eligible Shareholder in the Company as of the Record Date, rounded down to the nearest whole right. Each Subscription Right will, subject to applicable securities laws, give the preferential right to subscribe for, and be allocated, one Offer Share in the Subsequent Offering. Over-subscription will be permitted, but there can be no assurance that Offer Shares will be allocated for such subscriptions. Subscription without Subscription Rights will not be permitted.

The subscription period for the Subsequent Offering commences on 8 June 2026 at 09:00 (CEST) and, subject to any extension, expires on 19 June 2026 at 16:30 (CEST) (the "SubscriptionPeriod").

The Subscription Rights must be used to subscribe for Offer Shares before the end of the Subscription Period. Subscription Rights which are not exercised before the end of the Subscription Period will have no value and will lapse without compensation to the holder.

Subscriptions for Offer Shares must be made by submitting a correctly completed copy of the subscription form attached to the Prospectus to the Manager during the Subscription Period. Subscribers who are residents of Norway with a Norwegian personal identification number may also subscribe for Offer Shares through the VPS online subscription system (or by following the link on www.dnb.no/emisjoner, which will redirect the subscriber to the VPS online subscription system). Complete information on the terms and conditions of the Subsequent Offering, including subscription procedures, is set out in the Prospectus. Subscriptions may only be made on the basis of the Prospectus.

Advisors
DNB Carnegie, a part of DNB Bank ASA, is acting as manager for the Subsequent Offering (the "Manager"). Advokatfirmaet Schjødt AS is acting as legal counsel to the Company.
