(Nasdaq: SVRE, TASE: SVRE), a technology leader in advanced transportation safety solutions, today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements for the purchase and sale of an aggregate of 2,171,433 of its American Depositary Shares (ADSs), each representing 90 ordinary shares, at a purchase price of $0.70 per ADS in a registered direct offering. In addition, in a concurrent private placement, the Company will issue unregistered short-term warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,342,866 ADSs. The short-term warrants will have an exercise price of $0.80 per ADS, will become exercisable upon the Company’s receipt of shareholder approval to increase the number of its authorized ordinary shares pursuant to the Company’s Articles of Association and will expire twenty-four months thereafter. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on or about January 31, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
H.C. Wainwright & Co. is acting as the exclusive placement agent for the offering.
The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from the offering are expected to be $1.5 million, before deducting the placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
The ADSs (but not the short-term warrants issued in the private placement or the ADSs underlying such short-term warrants) are being offered by the Company pursuant to a “shelf” registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-274458) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 11, 2023 and became effective on September 27, 2023. The registered direct offering of the ADSs is being made only by means of a prospectus, including a prospectus supplement, forming a part of the effective registration statement. The prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus relating to the ADSs being offered in the registered direct offering will be filed with the SEC and be available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Electronic copies of the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus relating to the registered direct offering may also be obtained, when available, by contacting H.C. Wainwright & Co. at 430 Park Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, NY 10022, by telephone at (212) 856-5711 or e-mail at placements@hcwco.com.
The short-term warrants described above are being issued in a concurrent private placement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Regulation D promulgated thereunder and, along with the ADSs underlying the short-term warrants, have not been registered under the Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the short-term warrants and underlying ADSs may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws. The Company has agreed to file a registration statement to register the ADSs underlying the short-term warrants within 45 days of the closing of the offering.
