Solar A/S Completes Capital Increase of DKK 646,000

This increase follows a targeted private placement that raised gross proceeds of DKK 123,386,000. This strategic decision positions Solar for future growth and strengthens its financial foundation.
Understanding the New Share Structure
With this capital increase, Solar’s share structure now comprises nominally DKK 90,000,000 A-shares and nominally DKK 710,600,000 B-shares, each valued at DKK 100.
