During the IPO period, Adverty has received funding of SEK 36 million, whereas SEK 8 million is subscribed for in the IPO, another SEK 8 million is provided through a convertible note with right for Adverty to enable immediate conversion into shares, and another SEK 20 million which, through the sole discretion of Adverty, can be drawn in so-called tranches of SEK 4 million each upon five events. Upon a draw of a tranche, warrants will be issued to the lender as well as to all other shareholders to reduce dilution.
Board, management and founders have subscribed for SEK 2,5 million in the IPO.
