Madrid, 22 th July 2025- Amper has successfully completed its €77.2 million capital increase, which began on the 3rd of July, achieving an oversubscription between the first and second rounds of 4.46 times the targeted amount, with total demand reaching €344 million.
As 100% of the increase was covered by the company’s shareholders and investors who acquired rights, it was not necessary to open the third round, in which there was also additional demand from institutional investors, as well as subscription commitments from the management team, JB Capital and Renta 4.
The process has demonstrated the massive support of shareholders and investors for the company’s Strategic and Transformation Plan.
In the first round (pre-emptive subscription period), shareholders subscribed for 93.81% of the capital increase, including the reference shareholder Zelenza, S.L., which fulfilled its commitment by subscribing for its proportional share of 8.97% of the capital increase.
The second round (additional allocation period), with demand exceeding €270 million, enabled the 100% completion of the capital increase, demonstrating the market’s strong confidence in Amper’s roadmap.
Enrique López, CEO of Amper, described the operation as a “success that backs our strategy and the market’s confidence in our ability to execute. This confidence from our shareholders and investors not only provides us with the funds necessary for our strategic acquisitions in Defence, but also gives us tremendous momentum to accelerate our growth and consolidate our position as a leading player in this market”.
As a result of the capital increase, Amper will issue a total of 593,579,295 new shares at 0.13 euros per share, corresponding to a total outlay of 77,165,308.35 euros. The company expects these new shares to begin trading on 30 July 2025.
This capital increase is a key milestone in the development of the 2023-2026 Strategic and Transformation Plan and will enable the Group to accelerate its inorganic growth. The funds will be used to acquire Spanish technology companies in the defence communications sector or Spanish technology companies with strategic capabilities for national defence, strengthening the company’s capabilities for positioning and consolidation in this sector.
To carry out the increase, the company has engaged the services of JB Capital Markets, S.V., S.A.U. as sole global coordinator, placement agent and underwriter of the offering; Renta 4 Banco, S.A. as agent bank, placement agent and underwriter; and Banco Sabadell, Banca March and Kutxa Investment as placement agents.
