Advanza Bank AB is the Financial Adviser in connection with this offer.<\/strong><\/div>\n<p>ASAB\u2019s business operation is focused on financing the construction of solar energy installations in China, which are owned and periodically serviced by the SolTech concern\u2019s jointly owned Chinese company, Advanced SolTech Renewable Energy Hangzhou Co. Ltd. (ASRE). The goal set for 2018 is to achieve a total installed solar energy capacity of 88 MW (megawatts) on an investment amounting to approximately 677 MSEK (67.7 MEUR). Current backorders amount to circa 20 MW, with an additional 10 MW under construction.<br \/>\nASRE is jointly owned, as follows: 51% by SolTech Energy Sweden AB, publ., (SolTech), and 49% by Advanced Solar Power Hangzhou Inc. (ASP). SolTech and ASP have thus far \u2013 and in proportion to their ownership percentage \u2013 invested 190 MSEK (19 MEUR) of their own capital. The money has been invested in solar energy installations that are today owned by ASRE.<br \/>\nASAB\u2019s income will consist of interest earned on loans made to ASRE, or its wholly owned, local subsidiaries in China. As security for said loaned out funds, ASAB will hold contractual claim to underlying assets, i.e. virtually everything in the solar energy installations, such as income from customer receivable accounts, which are owned by ASRE in China.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CEO Frederic Telander comments:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The SolTech concern\u2019s establishment of installations in China will accelerate as a result of this financing, which, in turn, will also work to generate long term, positive cash flow that much quicker, The amount of the bond offer is adjusted to the current backlog of orders and ongoing installations, in combination with the 2018 goal of achieving an 88 MW installed solar energy capacity. The potential is very great and we have, today, an installed and income generating capacity of about 29 MW, as compared with the circa 2 MW capacity we had when we floated our first bond offer in June 2016.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A complete and formally (FI \u2013 Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority) approved prospectus, as well as a summary of the Offer, can be down-loaded from ASAB\u2019s homepage:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.soltechenergy.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.soltechenergy.com<\/a>\u00a0and also from the FI and Avanza\u2019s homepages as of February 5, 2018:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fi.se\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">\u00a0www.fi.se<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.avanza.se\/start\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.avanza.se<\/a>\u00a0Documentation can also be accessed as of the same time point in printed form at the SolTech concern\u2019s office on Mekanikerv\u00e4gen 12, 146 33 Tullinger.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Offer in brief<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Subscription period 5 \u2013 20 February 2018<br \/>\nOptions and nominal amounts: 5,000 SEK per bond.

Ltd (ASRE), where SolTech owns 51 percent and Advanced Solar Power Hangzhou Inc. (ASP) owns 49 percent. The business model consists of having ASRE finance, install, own, and periodically service solar energy installations mounted on the roofs of customer-owned facilities. The customer does not pay for the installed solar energy unit, but instead undersigns a long-term, 20-25 year contract to buy all the electricity and\/or thermal heat the relevant unit produces. ASRE\u2019s current income comes from the sale of electricity to customers, along with various forms of subsidies per produced kWh. Focus is now concentrated on building a backlog of orders for 2018 and beyond, with the goal of obtaining an installed capacity of 605 MW (megawatts) by the close of 2021, which in 2022 will be set into full operation, generating current annual sales amounting to approximately 1 billion SEK (100 MEUR).<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"mfn-footer\"><\/div>\n<script>\n                Array.prototype.slice.call(document.querySelectorAll(\".mfn-footer.mfn-attachment\")).forEach(function (el) { el.remove() });\n            <\/script>\n        <div class=\"mfn-attachments-container\"><div class=\"mfn-attachment mfn-file-type-pdf mfn-primary\"><a class=\"mfn-attachment-link\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/release.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FMain%2F2299%2F2991223%2F1161820.pdf\"><span class=\"mfn-attachment-icon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/release.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FMain%2F2299%2F2991223%2F1161820.pdf&type=jpg\"><\/span>Release<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On January 10, 2018, the Board of Advanced SolTech Sweden AB (publ.), ASAB, released a bond offer directed at the general public specifying a 300 MSEK max-ceiling.
