Stockholm based capital market advisory firm Remium Nordic AB has been appointed to serve as the Company’s financial advisor in connection with the dual listing.
Leading Edge Materials has been encouraged by a steady increase in interest from European investors over the past year. This positive trend matches the growing European awareness of the rapid global shift to electric mobility, and the need for secure critical raw material supply chains if the European automotive industry is to play a leading role.
Nasdaq First North Stockholm is a logical choice for a dual listing of Leading Edge Materials, to both expand the Company’s European profile and broaden the European shareholder base. With graphite, lithium, rare earth and cobalt assets located in the Nordic region, Leading Edge Materials can deliver a unique opportunity to European investors to take part in the high growth lithium ion battery market.
The potential for wider dissemination of corporate information, increased trading volume and higher exposure to prospective European customers were considered by Leading Edge Materials in the decision to dual list, which is anticipated to benefit both existing and new shareholders.
Nasdaq Stockholm is a very active market, with 56 new listings during H1 2017(1), sophisticated institutional investors and an active retail base. The Nordic region boasts the largest retail presence in the world per capita, with small private investors and professional investors taking an active role in the market.
Blair Way, President and CEO, stated “Listing of Leading Edge Materials on Nasdaq First North Stockholm is a natural next step as we build our business to serve the specialty materials needs of the European Union.”
