A new share issue is one of the most common ways for unlisted companies to raise new capital. But the process can seem complex if you haven't done it before. Here we guide you through the entire process, step by step.
Step 1: The board proposes a share issue. The proposal must contain the terms of the issue – how many shares to be issued, at what price, and who has the right to subscribe.
Step 2: The general meeting (or the board if authorized) decides on the share issue. The decision must be registered and documented.
Step 3: The subscription period opens. Interested investors subscribe for shares according to the terms.
Step 4: Allocation takes place. The board decides on the allocation of shares based on the subscription terms.
Step 5: Payment and registration. When payment is received, the share issue is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office and the share register is updated.
With eAktiebok, this entire process can be handled digitally – from decision to registration.
