Genmab Boosts Capital Through Employee Warrant Exercise

Genmab Announces Share Capital Increase

Company Announcement

Genmab A/S (Nasdaq: GMAB) has increased its share capital by 11,729 shares following the exercise of employee warrants. The step reinforces Genmab’s approach to sharing value creation with its people and encouraging broad-based equity ownership across the company.

Details of the Capital Increase

The new shares are issued without preemption rights—so existing shareholders do not have priority to buy these shares before issuance. The capital increase comes from cash subscriptions at different prices, reflecting solid participation from employees who chose to exercise their warrants. The subscriptions were completed at the following prices:

- 4,623 shares at DKK 1,025.00
- 3,656 shares at DKK 1,032.00
- 561 shares at DKK 1,050.00
- 1,645 shares at DKK 1,334.50
- 1,015 shares at DKK 1,432.00
- 229 shares at DKK 1,615.00

Gross proceeds from these exercises total approximately DKK 13.1 million. Following the issue, Genmab’s total share capital will be DKK 66,176,831, corresponding to 66,176,831 ordinary shares. All shares carry equal voting power, preserving one-share, one-vote alignment across the shareholder base.

Implications for Shareholders and Next Steps

The newly issued shares amount to roughly 0.02% of Genmab’s total share capital. By supporting employee participation through warrant exercises, Genmab aims to align long-term incentives while staying focused on innovation in biopharmaceuticals. The new shares carry the same rights as existing ordinary shares, including voting rights and dividends. They are expected to be admitted to trading and official listing on Nasdaq Copenhagen after registration with the Danish Business Authority.
