Completion of accelerated bookbuild offering

Ambu A/S ("Ambu" of the "Company") has completed its offering of new B shares and existing treasury B shares (together the "Shares") through an accelerated bookbuilding process (the "Offering").

Further to company announcements no. 6 of 27 January 2021, Ambu has successfully completed an accelerated bookbuild offering to raise gross proceeds of DKK 1.3 billion (corresponding to 4,711,832 new B shares and 250,000 existing treasury B shares, in aggregate corresponding to 2.0% of Ambu's issued shares and registered share capital, at a sales price of DKK 262 per share).

The Offering was made pursuant to applicable exemptions from the obligation to publish a prospectus in a directed issue and private placement and subscribed for by eligible institutional and professional investors in Denmark and in certain other jurisdictions at market price and without pre-emption rights for Ambu's existing shareholders. Ambu and the members of its board of directors and management have in connection with the Offering, agreed to undertake a lock-up commitment for 180 calendar days following settlement of the Offering (subject to certain exceptions).

Capital increase

Subject to settlement, the share capital increase will be registered with the Danish Business Authority and the share capital of Ambu will hereafter consist of 223,233,932 B shares of DKK 0.50 each, together with 34,320,000 A shares of DKK 0.50 each, equivalent to a registered share capital of DKK 128,776,966.

The new B shares represent approximately 1.86% of Ambu's registered share capital before the capital increase and will account for approximately 1.83% of Ambu's registered share capital upon completion of the capital increase.

Admission to trading and official listing

The new B shares will be issued under the temporary ISIN code DK0061531787. No application for admission to trading and official listing has been, or will be, filed for the new B shares issued under the temporary ISIN code, and the temporary ISIN code will only be registered with VP Securities A/S for subscription of the new B shares. The temporary ISIN code in VP Securities A/S will be merged with the permanent ISIN code for the existing B shares, DK0060946788, as soon as possible following registration of the share capital increase with the Danish Business Authority. The new B shares are expected to be admitted to trading and official listing on Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S on or around 2 February 2021.

The admission to trading and official listing of the new B shares is subject to the Offering not being withdrawn prior to the settlement of the Offering and the Company making an announcement to that effect.
