GOFORE PLC COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT 22 MARCH 2019 AT 10.00

Gofore Plc’s directed share issue for the transfer of savings shares in employee share savings plan

As a part of the Gofore Group’s employee share savings plan, CrewShare, Gofore Plc has issued a total of 20,801 new shares. The share issue is based on the authorisation by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on 27 March 2018.

In September 2018, Gofore resolved to launch a new employee share savings plan for the Group employees. In the employee share savings plan, the participants have an opportunity to save a proportion of their salaries and use the savings amounts for the acquisition of the Gofore shares at a reduced price (savings shares). The plan is described in more detail in the company announcement published on 28 September 2018.

The new shares are savings shares acquired for the participants in the plan with the participants’ savings accrued during 1 November 2018-28 February 2019. The shares have been subscribed for at a price of EUR 7.38 per share, which is based on the trade volume weighted average share price on Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd during 1-28 February 2019 with a 10 per cent discount.

The new shares have been entered into the Trade Register today. Trading on the new shares at the First North Finland market administered by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd is expected to begin on 25 March 2019. Following the registration of the new shares, the total number of the company shares is 13,137,957. The share subscription price will be credited in full to the company’s reserve for invested unrestricted equity.
