Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS ("Zwipe" or the "Company") on 23 December 2024, regarding the final allocation of the rights issue of units, consisting of shares and warrants (the "Units"), with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue"). In said announcement, it was stated that the Company received subscriptions for a total of 85,757,930 Units, corresponding to approx. 21.6% of the Units offered, during the subscription period for the Rights Issue.

Approximately NOK 8.6 million of the Rights Issue was guaranteed through subscription commitments and so-called bottom guarantee commitments (the "Bottom Guarantee Commitments"). Furthermore, the Company had received a so-called top guarantee commitment of an amount corresponding to approximately NOK 5,514,472 million (the "Top Guarantee Commitment").

The Top Guarantee Commitment will be fulfilled through the partial set-off of NOK 5,514,472 of the Company's outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 (the "2023 Convertible Loan"). In addition, the accrued interest under the 2023 Convertible Loan, coupled with NOK 1,000,000 from the 2023 Convertible Loan, has been set-off against Fenja Capital II A/S (the "Top Guarantor") commitment under the Bottom Guarantee Commitments.

The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, in addition to an arrangement fee of NOK 200,000, in total NOK 4,200,000, will be extended in the form of a new convertible loan (the "New Convertible Loan"). Accordingly, the Board of Directors of the Company has today, 23 December 2024, resolved, based on the authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting on 3 December 2024, on the issuance of the New Convertible Loan to the Top Guarantor. Further, the Top Guarantor has subscribed for and been allotted the New Convertible Loan.

The New Convertible Loan is due on 30 November 2025 (the "Maturity Date"). The New Convertible Loan shall accrue at an annual interest rate of STIBOR 3M, where STIBOR is set at minimum 3.00% over the duration, (the "Interest Rate Benchmark") plus an interest margin of 10.00%, (the "Interest Margin") from the day the Top Guarantor pays for the New Convertible Loan until the New Convertible Loan is repaid to the Top Guarantor's account or converted (the "Interest").

The Interest shall become due at the end of each calendar quarter and shall be paid out by the Company quarterly on the last day of the quarter or if this date is not a banking day, on the banking day immediately after such date.

The Top Guarantor shall have the right, but no obligation, to convert the Convertible Loan into shares in the Company on the terms set out below. Each request for Conversion by the Top Guarantor must always be for an aggregate nominal amount of at least NOK 1,000,000.

The subscription price per share upon conversion of the New Convertible Loan shall be NOK 0.12 per share. However, this subscription price may be subject to adjustment in certain circumstances, such as if the Company undertakes a bonus issue; reverse share split, share split; new share issue under Chapter 10 of the Norwegian Private Limited Liability Companies Act (the "Companies Act"); future rights issue pursuant to Chapter 10 of the Companies Act; an offer to shareholders to purchase securities or other rights, or resolves to distribute securities or rights without consideration; liquidation, merger, de-merger, or bankruptcy; or if any of these actions result in an inequitable financial outcome for the Top Guarantor.

Upon full conversion of the New Convertible Loan, the share capital will increase by approximately NOK 3,500,000 through the issuance of 35,000,000 new shares, implying a maximum dilution of approximately 11.6 percent for existing shareholders (calculated on the total number of shares in the Company after the Rights Issue).

Reference is made to the stock exchange announcement published by Zwipe AS (the "Company") on 6 December 2024, regarding the commencement of the subscription period in a new issue of units (the "Units"), consisting of shares and warrants, with preferential rights for existing shareholders raising gross proceeds of approximately NOK 40 million (the "Rights Issue").

The Company received subscriptions for a total of 85,757,930 Units, corresponding to approx. 21.6% of the offered Units, during the subscription period for the Rights Issue.

The allocation of the Units in the Rights Issue has now been completed on the basis of the allocation criteria resolved by the extraordinary general meeting of the Company in connection with the approval of the Rights Issue, and as set out in the prospectus prepared for the Rights Issue dated 4 December 2024 (the "Prospectus").

The board of directors of the Company has allocated a total of 111,219,745 Units in the Rights Issue, of which 85,757,930 Units were allocated based on subscriptions received in the subscription period and the remaining 25,461,815 Units were allocated to the so-called bottom guarantors for the Rights Issue.

Furthermore, the Company had received a so-called top guarantee commitment, whereby Fenja Capital II A/S (the "Top Guarantor") would partially set-off NOK 5,514,472 of the Company's outstanding convertible loan of NOK 10,514,472 to the Top Guarantor (the "2023 Convertible Loan"). If the Top Guarantor was allotted Units amounting to less than NOK 5,514,472 in the Rights Issue, the balance between the allotted amount and NOK 5,514,472 would be paid back in cash by the Company, using proceeds from the Rights Issue. The remaining balance of the 2023 Convertible Loan, amounting to NOK 4.0 million, and NOK 200,000 as an arrangement fee, will be extended for another 12 months in the form of a new convertible loan amounting to NOK 4.2 million (the "New Convertible Loan"). The Top Guarantor was allotted Units amounting to NOK 5,514,472.

Through the Rights Issue, the Company's share capital will increase by NOK 16,636,446.50,     through the issuance of 166,364,465 new shares. If all warrants, issued in the Rights Issue, are exercised to subscribe for shares, the Company's share capital will increase by an additional NOK 16,636,446.50, through the issuance of 166,364,465 new shares.

Notifications of allocated Units and the corresponding subscription amount to be paid by each subscriber not yet having paid for their subscriptions are expected to be distributed today, on 23 December 2024. Payment for the allocated Units falls due on 30 December 2024 in accordance with the payment procedures described in the Prospectus.

The shares and warrants issued in the Rights Issue may not be transferred or traded before all Units have been fully paid for and the share capital increase pertaining to the Rights Issue has been registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises (Nw. Foretaksregisteret). Subject to timely payment of the entire subscription amount in the Rights Issue, the Company expects that the share capital increase pertaining to the Rights Issue will be registered with the Norwegian Register of Business Enterprises on or about 6 January 2025. Under the same conditions, allocated Units are expected to be delivered on or about 8 January 2025. Trading in the Offer Shares and Warrants on Euronext Growth Oslo is expected to commence on or about 8 January 2025.

OSLO, NORWAY – 25 October 2022 – During the third quarter, Zwipe AS (“Zwipe” or “the company”) continued to strengthen its platform and market position to help its customers deliver biometric payment and access control cards to the market.

Significant events during the period

  • Mastercard certifies Zwipe Pay Biometric Payment Card (“BPC”) Platform.
  • Tag Systems, a major Zwipe Smart Card Manufacturer (“SCM”) customer, obtains Mastercard Letter of Approval (“LoA”) for cards built on the Zwipe Pay platform.
  • Fraport announces that the project on biometric access control at Frankfurt Airport (The Digital Factory Project) was successfully completed, with Zwipe passing all required tests in order to successfully complete the pilot project.
  • Zwipe’s SCM customers have expanded the issuer pipeline significantly - engagements started with 10 new large issuers globally.
  • Zwipe creates Customer Success department to accelerate pilot execution and names Jens Hansen to head the unit.

Significant events after the period

  • On 11 October 2022, Zwipe announced a significant commercial order for Zwipe Pay totaling $225,000 from a large European SCM, making it the single largest commercial order in a quarter to date for Zwipe. Delivery is targeted for the fourth quarter. 
  • On 14 October 2022, Civix announced a partnership with Zwipe to bring biometric access control cards to airports in the USA and elsewhere in the Americas.

Operational review

In August 2022, Zwipe received the Component Conformity Statement (CCS) certificate from Mastercard, a significant milestone for the Zwipe Pay platform. With this certification, Zwipe became the first biometric payment card platform available to SCMs to achieve scheme approvals from both VISA and Mastercard.  Soon after this announcement, Tag Systems was the first of our SCM customers to receive approval by Mastercard to deploy their biometric card products using the Zwipe Pay platform.  Certification from Mastercard is expected to further accelerate issuer pilots and planned launches based on Mastercard's network.

Zwipe continues to focus on executing our signed issuers’ pilots.  In total, seven issuer pilot projects are progressing according to issuer plans – including our first major announced pilot, the global Tier-1 bank pilot and the MEPS pilot. Additional pilot launches are expected in the coming quarters, with start dates to be defined by issuers. Zwipe’s SCM customers also saw a significant expansion in their issuer pipelines during the quarter, beginning engagements with ten new large and medium sized banks – primarily in the Latin America (“Latam”) and Asia Pacific (“APAC”) regions.

We also continued to make significant progress for Zwipe Access during the third quarter. In July, Fraport AG announced the conclusion of The Digital Factory – Biometric Security Controls project at Frankfurt Airport. Zwipe Access cards were tested by Fraport employees in real-time and passed all project requirements successfully. Zwipe is now shortlisted as a suitable contender to provide next generation access control when Fraport moves forward. Just after the end of the third quarter, Civix, one of America’s leading providers of security solutions to over 100 airports in North and Latin America, selected Zwipe’s access control technology to augment their security propositions for airport operations – further enhancing Zwipe’s position in the airport vertical.

On the technology side, the R&D team has continued to make good progress on finalizing our mobile enrollment solution for both Android and iOS, ensuring value-added enhancements that will enable consumers to have a seamless enrollment experience. 

Zwipe also took an important step by establishing a dedicated Customer Success team to accelerate pilot execution.  Jens Hansen was recruited to lead this department and becomes a member of the Zwipe Leadership Team, while several employees were transferred to the Customer Success unit.

Most importantly, Zwipe is ending the year with strong momentum, having announced the single largest commercial order in a quarter to date for Zwipe. Further traction with this SCM and others is expected in 2023.

Financial review

Zwipe had total revenue of 0.8 mNOK during Q3 2022 versus revenue of 0.4 mNOK in Q3 2021. Net cash flow from operations was -24.2 mNOK versus -15.8 mNOK in Q3 2021, equating to an underlying average monthly operating cash flow in the third quarter of 2022 of -8.0 mNOK.  Cash and cash equivalents stood at 85.8 mNOK at the end of Q3 2022 compared to 183.7 mNOK at the end of Q3 2021.

Biometric smart cards increase security, reduce time and costs

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA and OSLO, NORWAY – 14 October 2022 – In partnership with Zwipe, Civix is expanding its Aviation Secure Credentials (ASC) suite of solutions with a biometric smart card for access control. The ASC Access Cards use built-in fingerprint sensors to check the legitimacy of cardholders at points of entry. The cards are fully compatible with traditional NFC card readers, so airports can use them to implement two-factor authentication without upgrading the existing hardware. The solution is also contactless, a priority for high-traffic facilities, like airports, in light of COVID-19.

“We’re excited to continue expanding on our end-to-end suite of security solutions for airport secure credentials with the addition of ASC Access cards,” said Tim Walsh, President of Civix Airports, a trusted partner to the FAA, state aeronautics departments, and over 100 airports worldwide. “The icing on the cake is that ASC Access cards work with existing hardware, meaning airports save costs and avoid holdups associated with complicated implementation and supply chain delays.”

ASC Access cards work by giving each user a card containing their unique fingerprint data in a secure chip. When placed near a reader, the card compares the fingerprint of the person holding the card with the fingerprint data stored on the card. If they are a match, the card generates an access code and directs the control infrastructure to grant access.

“Basically, the person assigned to the card must be holding it in order to get access. It’s a simple way for airports to improve security,” Walsh explained. The authentication process is self-contained within the card, so biometric data is not transmitted and separate biometric reader hardware is not required.

“This is a heightened level of security that is incredibly fast, easy, and affordable to implement,” said Robert Puskaric, President & CEO of Zwipe. “Civix is a highly reputed system integrator and solution provider to the airport industry, and we are proud to include our biometric smart card technology to its suite of solutions improving airport security.”

Civix ASC Access cards can be used with any access control system or as part of Civix’s suite of ASC solutions, which includes IDMS software, a self-service badging kiosk, and Aviation Channeling Data Management System formerly known as Designated Aviation Channeling (DAC) services to facilitate the fast, seamless communication of biographic and biometric data securely from aviation badging entities to the federal government.

“We know airports and the challenges they face, that’s why we’re especially proud to offer affordable solutions that eliminate friction throughout entire credentialing process, from self-service badging to automated background checks to access control,” said Walsh.

About Civix Airports

Built on decades of experience and a deep understanding of airport processes, Civix provides industry-leading solutions for managing airport operations, finance, and security. Our modular technology automates data sharing and seamlessly connects airport activities – improving oversight, revenue, and compliance. Our experts have worked in every facet of airport management, and Civix is a trusted partner to the FAA, state aeronautics departments, and over 100 airports worldwide.
