MCLEAN, VA / ACCESSWIRE / September 11, 2019 / Cyren (NASDAQ:CYRN) (the “Company”) announced today that its board of directors has approved a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) to raise proceeds of up to $12,500,000.
Pursuant to the Rights Offering, each holder of ordinary shares at the close of business on September 25, 2019 (the "Record Date") will receive one subscription right (a "Right") for every 7.55 ordinary shares held. Each Right will entitle a holder to purchase one ordinary share at a subscription price of $1.73 per share (the "Subscription Price"). A maximum of 7,225,434 ordinary shares will be issued pursuant to the Rights Offering, representing 13.2% of the currently issued and outstanding ordinary shares. The offering will also include an over-subscription right which will entitle shareholders to purchase additional ordinary shares that remain unsubscribed for at the expiration of the Rights Offering. No fractional Rights will be issued in the Rights Offering. Any fractional Rights will be rounded down to the nearest whole Right.
The Company's majority shareholder, WP XII Investments B.V., an entity controlled by funds affiliated with Warburg Pincus, LLC (“Warburg Pincus”) has provided a commitment letter to the Company pursuant to which it committed to subscribe for ordinary shares for an aggregate amount of at least $8,000,000 of ordinary shares pursuant to its basic subscription Rights and over-subscription Rights. Warburg Pincus will not receive any fee in connection with its commitment.
The information herein is not complete and is subject to change. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Rights, ordinary shares or any other securities, nor will there be any sale of the Rights, ordinary shares or any other securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction. The Rights Offering will be made pursuant to the Company's effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-233316) on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and a prospectus supplement to be filed with the SEC prior to the commencement of the Rights Offering.
