On 29 March 2017, the ordinary annual shareholders’ meeting of Novavest Real Estate AG approved the creation of an authorised share capital. Mid-September, also due to oversubscription of the previous ordinary share capital increase of the company (see announcement of 27 June 2017), the board of directors decided to make use of the authorised share capital and to increase the company’s share capital by issuance of up to 594’247 additional shares at an aggregate issue volume of CHF 22.6 million to existing shareholders and new investors. The share capital increase was again oversubscribed and was executed on 10 November 2017. The new shares were listed on 13. November 2017 at BX Berne eXchange.
