The management board of 4SC AG ("4SC") (4SC, FSE Prime Standard: VSC) today resolved – with the approval of the supervisory board – to implement a capital increase to raise funds to continue to advance its drug development programs. In this context, an increase of 4SC’s share capital shall be prepared, through the utilization of authorized capital from EUR 45,972,769 by EUR 4,597,276 to EUR 50,570,045, by issuing 4,597,276 new no-par value bearer shares, each with a notional par value of EUR 1,00, against cash contribution.

The new shares will be subscribed by some German and European family offices in full. The subscription price per new share is EUR 1.64. The statutory subscription rights have been excluded pursuant to Sec. 186 Para. 3 sentence 4 of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz).

Upon successful completion of the capital increase which is currently scheduled for 30 November 2020, 4SC will obtain total net proceeds of approximately EUR 7.5 million. Trading of the new shares on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange is anticipated to commence on 1 December 2020 after registration of the implementation of the capital increase with the commercial register, which is expected to occur on 30 November 2020.
