The Board of Directors of Alligator Bioscience AB (”Alligator Bioscience” or the ”Company”), today announces the preliminary outcome of the rights issue of units that was announced on 22 October 2025 (the “Rights Issue”). The preliminary outcome indicates that the Rights Issue has been subscribed to approximately 64.8 percent with and without exercise of unit rights, of which approximately 61.2 percent were subscribed for by exercise of unit rights and approximately 3.6 percent were subscribed for without exercise of unit rights. The preliminary outcome thus indicates that guarantee commitments will be utilized with approximately 9.1 percent of the Rights Issue. Based on the preliminary outcome, Alligator Bioscience will initially receive approximately SEK 91 million from the Rights Issue before issue costs, repayment of bridge loans and repayment of part of the outstanding loan to Fenja Capital II A/S.

The subscription period in the Rights Issue ended on 18 December 2025. The Rights Issue comprised a maximum of 306,695,704 units whereof each unit consists of two (2) ordinary shares and one (1) warrant series TO 14. The preliminary outcome indicates that subscriptions with and without exercise of unit rights amount to a total of 198,725,144 units, corresponding to approximately 64.8 percent of the Rights Issue. The Rights Issue is thus subscribed below the guaranteed level and guarantee commitments will need to be utilized with approximately 9.1 percent of the Rights Issue, corresponding to a total of 28,041,513 units.

The final outcome of the Rights Issue is expected to be announced on 22 December 2025.
