Scout Gaming Group Completes Directed Share Issues and Receives Proceeds of Approximately SEK 75 Million
Scout Gaming Group AB announces that the Company successfully has completed two directed share issues amounting to approximately SEK 75 million, corresponding to approximately 3 million shares in the Company.
The Board of directors of Scout has, based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting on May 25, 2020, resolved on a directed share issue of 1,835,062 shares through a so-called accelerated “book building” procedure (the ”Share Issue”) and on a directed share issue to the existing Santa Monica-based institutional investor Topline Capital Partners Ltd, of 1,200,000 shares (the “Directed Share Issue”). The Company receives approximately SEK 45 million before transaction costs from the Share Issue and approximately SEK 30 million before transaction costs from the Directed Share Issue, equal to a total amount of approximately SEK 75 million.
The Share Issue was substantially oversubscribed, and the subscription price has been set to SEK 25 per share through the accelerated book building procedure, which corresponds to a 14.6 percent premium compared to the average volume-weighted price of the Company’s share on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market over the past 30 trading days. The subscription price in the Directed Share Issue has been set to the same price as in the Share Issue.
The Share Issue was directed to Swedish and international institutional investors. In order to facilitate the execution of the Share Issue, the new shares have initially been subscribed for by ABG Sundal Collier AB at a price corresponding to the shares’ quota value. The shares will be transferred to the new and existing shareholders in the Company in accordance with agreements entered between ABG Sundal Collier and the actual investors. Subscribers in the in the Share Issue among others were the German institutional investor Lloyds AG, Provobis and Knutsson Holding. In connection with received payment from investors in the Share Issue, which is expected to occur around July 23, 2020, the Company will receive the remaining amount, i.e. the difference between the quota value and the price in the Share Issue.
“Scout Gaming is in an intensive growth phase establishing the DFS vertical globally. We are at the same time launching many new products and markets, just recently esport had a warm welcome. I’m sure that we trough this placing can capture additional market possibilities to accelerate the growth even more rapidly. I’m very pleased to attract both new and existing institutional investors as well as sector specialists”, comments Scout’s CEO Andreas Ternström.
The reason for the deviation from the shareholders’ preferential rights is mainly to raise capital in a time- and cost-efficient manner and to widen the institutional owner base. Through the Share Issue and the Directed Share Issue, Scout’s financial position will be further strengthened and enable and accelerate growth as well as a continued product development.
After the registration of the Share Issue and the Directed Share Issue, the total number of shares in the Company will amount to 20,536,654 shares. The Company’s share capital will increase with SEK 159,740.12 to SEK 1,080,876.56. The Share Issue and the Directed Share Issue entails a dilution of approximately 15 percent of the number of shares in Scout after the Share Issue and the Directed Share Issue.
In connection with the Share Issue, the Company has appointed ABG Sundal Collier as Sole Lead Manager and Bookrunner and Advokatfirman Delphi as legal counsel.

ANJL challenges Rio Grande do Sul law banning lottery advertising in court
The National Association of Gaming and Lotteries (ANJL) is challenging, in court, Law No. 16.508/2026, enacted in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, which bans lottery advertising in the state.
The entity has filed a Direct Action of Unconstitutionality (ADI No. 7971) before the Federal Supreme Court (STF), arguing that the state law interferes with matters under federal jurisdiction, particularly by imposing restrictions with direct effects on broadcasting activities and on the placement of advertising in media outlets regulated at the federal level.
The central issue in the dispute goes beyond the lottery market.
The controversy primarily concerns the limits of state authority over advertising content broadcast on radio, television, and other media subject to nationwide federal regulation.
By establishing a broad advertising ban, the state law creates practical obstacles for broadcasters, media outlets, agencies, and operators acting in compliance with federal legislation, generating legal uncertainty about which messages can be transmitted, through which channels, and under what conditions.
According to the association, the state restriction also creates a significant regulatory issue: by preventing advertising from companies authorized and supervised at the federal level, the law reduces the communication capacity of the legal market without effectively addressing illegal platforms operating outside the regulatory framework and ignoring public authority restrictions.
In practice, the measure may shift the debate away from consumer protection toward a generalized restriction on communication, with direct impacts on broadcasting and on the freedom to advertise lawful products.
For ANJL, responsible advertising is an essential tool to differentiate licensed operators from illegal websites.
It is through advertising that consumers can identify regulated companies, protection mechanisms, official channels, and responsible gaming practices.
A broad ban, on the other hand, tends to create asymmetry: while legal companies lose the ability to communicate through formal and auditable channels, unlicensed operators continue using aggressive, unregulated strategies often aimed at vulnerable audiences, without any state control.
