Meldung : | DGAP-News: Heliocentris Energy Solutions AG / Key word(s): Miscellaneous Heliocentris Energy Solutions AG: Heliocentris receives additional EUR 6 million fresh capital 05.05.2014 / 09:34 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Heliocentris receives additional EUR 6 million fresh capital Berlin, May 5, 2014 - Heliocentris, a leader in solutions and services for energy efficiency and distributed power, today announced completion of a EUR 6 million convertible bond issue that was privately placed with strategic investors from Europe and Middle East. This financing round complements the EUR 4 million from the convertible bond the company issued in January this year and took place on identical terms and conditions: the bonds carry a coupon of 4%, can be converted into common stock at 8 Euros per share and will mature in January 2017. Placement was at 90% of par value. The net proceeds from this convertible bond will be used to finance the company's operating cash and working capital needs. Thomas Strobl, CFO of Heliocentris, comments: "The market opportunity for Heliocentris to build energy-efficient and environmentally friendly hybrid power solutions in on-grid-, bad-grid- and off-grid-situations is tremendous. Clearly, demand is accelerating and the market is poised for growth - for all of the players in this space, as evidenced by the successful financing rounds of some of our peers in recent months, and we are convinced Heliocentris will emerge as one of the companies to lead this global trend. With the fresh capital from this convertible we do more than cover the additional financing needs that resulted from the missing revenues we had to encounter in 2013 and is another signal for the continuous support of our strategic investors in Europe and the Middle East as well as the strong position Heliocentris continues to hold in this attractive market place." About Heliocentris Energy Solutions AG Heliocentris Energy Solutions AG is a technology leader in energy efficiency services and distributed power solutions for customers around the globe in the field of Information & Communication Technologies as well as Training and Research. The company's flagship product "Energy Manager" enables smart connectivity between different components in hybrid energy supply clusters, such as batteries, solar panels, conventional diesel generators or fuel cells, thereby substantially increasing efficiency and decreasing the ecological footprint of an installation at much lower operating cost. In its current roll-out-phase the company targets primarily base stations of mobile telecom operators in world regions with poor and unreliable grid-coverage such as the Middle East and South-East-Asia and has successfully installed several hundred systems in the field already. Further key markets currently in development are mission-critical mobile and stationary applications that require reliable, autonomous power-supply over longer time horizons than conventional batteries can deliver. The company has 150 employees and is headquartered in Berlin with branch offices in Munich, Dubai, Vancouver and Johannesburg. More information is available at www.heliocentris.com.
