Reference is made to the announcement from Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG) .

GiG’s subsidiary, Gaming Innovation Group Plc., has successfully completed the issuance of a new 3-year SEK 450 million senior secured bond with a SEK 550 million borrowing limit. The transaction was oversubscribed and received strong demand from investors across the Nordics, continental Europe, and the US, with participation in the placement from existing as well as new investors.

Settlement of the new bond issue is expected to be on or about 11 June 2021.

The new bond has a floating coupon of 3 months STIBOR + 8.50% per annum and with more favourable terms than the existing SEK 400 million bond. An application will be made for the new bond to be listed on Nasdaq Stockholm and Frankfurt Stock Exchange Open Market.

Richard Brown, CEO of GiG says: “I am pleased to have secured a new bond on better and more flexible terms, that will give a strong position for the business to work from over the coming years towards our financial targets.”
