Results of Placing
EverArc is pleased to announce the successful completion of the
placing announced on 15 January 2020 (the "Placing").
The Company has raised gross proceeds of US$71.4 million through
the placing of 6.8 million new ordinary shares in the Company of no
par value at a placing price of US$10.50 per ordinary share (the
"Placing Shares"), subject to admission. The Placing Shares being
issued represent approximately 19.99% of the issued share capital
of the Company prior to the Placing.
The net proceeds of the Placing will be used by the Company to
pursue its objective of acquiring a target company or business, as
detailed in its prospectus dated 12 December 2019.
Applications have been made for admission of the Placing Shares
to the Standard listing segment of the Official List of the
Financial Conduct Authority (the "Official List") and to trading on
the main market of the London Stock Exchange plc (together,
"Admission"). It is expected that settlement for the Placing Shares
and Admission will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 20 January 2020.
Settlement of the Placing is conditional upon, amongst other
things, Admission becoming effective and upon the placing agreement
not being terminated in accordance with its terms.
The Placing Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid
and will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary
shares in the Company.
Following Admission, the Company's total issued share capital
consists of 40,830,000 ordinary shares of no par value.

Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation (Regulation 2017/1129 as

your financial decisions on the Company's intentions in relation to
Admission of the Placing Shares. Securities to which this
announcement relates may expose an investor to a significant risk
of losing the entire amount invested. Persons considering an
investment in such securities should consult an authorised person
specialising in advising on such securities. This announcement does
not constitute a recommendation concerning the Placing. The value
of shares can decrease as well as increase. Potential investors
should consult a professional advisor as to the suitability of the
Placing for the person concerned. Past performance is not a guide
to future performance.
The Placing and the distribution of this announcement and other
information in connection with the Placing in certain jurisdictions
may be restricted by law and persons into whose possession any
document or other information referred to herein comes should
inform themselves about and observe any such restriction. Any

Information contained in this announcement may include
'forward-looking statements'. All statements other than statements
of historical facts included herein, including, without limitation,
those regarding the intentions, beliefs or current expectations of
the Company, the Directors or the Founders concerning, among other
things, the Company's objective, acquisition strategies or
opportunities, financing, financial condition, capital resources,

forward-looking statements. By their nature, forward-looking

differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in

Information to Distributors
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements
of Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial instruments, as
amended ("MiFID II") and local implementing measures, and
disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort,
contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes
of the Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with
respect thereto, the securities the subject of the Placing have
been subject to a product approval process, which has determined
that such securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market
of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of
professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined
in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all
distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target
Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment,
Distributors should note that: the price of the securities may
decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment;
the securities offer no guaranteed income and no capital
protection; and an investment in the securities is compatible only
with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital
protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate
financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources
to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target
Market Assessment is without prejudice to any contractual, legal or
regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing.
Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market
Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only procure investors who
meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible
counterparties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market
Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or
appropriateness for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a
recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in,
or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to
the securities.
Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target
market assessment in respect of the securities and determining
appropriate distribution channels.
