Chordate Medical ("Chordate", "the Company") announces that the distributor for the Italian market, Ve.Di.Se, has announced the intent to increase its holding in Chordate by a multiple in connection with the upcoming rights issue.

Ve.Di.Se's CEO Valter Varano has informed the Company of the intention to increase their current shareholding in Chordate by approximately 3.3 times through subscription with and without issue rights in the upcoming rights issue. Ve.Di.Se currently owns 592 651 shares and intends to subscribe for 385 223 shares with issue rights in the forthcoming issue. In addition, they intend to subscribe for a further 1 022 186 shares, bringing their total holding to 2 000 000 shares. This assumes full allotment in the distribution of non-subscribed shares. Ve.di.se's subscription intention amounts to approximately SEK 0.7 million in the event of a fully subscribed issue, corresponding to approximately 1.4 percent of the total amount in the rights issue.

“Entrepreneur Valter Varano and his company Ve.Di.Se have been following Chordate for a long time and are a leading distributor in Italy. They are investing heavily in the introduction of the K.O.S-treatment technology for chronic migraine. The fact that K.O.S is both CE-marked and proven in a broad patient study already gives good support to their marketing. It is very gratifying that they believe in Chordate's offer and announce their intention to increase their ownership accordingly”, says Anders Weilandt, CEO of Chordate.

MIGRAINE STUDY – CRUCIAL SUCCESS
The migraine study has been completed – the most important milestone in the company’s history. We are now entering the final phase of the build-up of the company’s value for a successful exit.

• The migraine study has been delivered – strong significant results
• Market introduction in Finland
• Five international congress exhibitions held
• The company intends to strengthen its cash with a rights issue

Clinical study on migraines completed – an unequivocal success
We have now completed our crucial clinical study on migraines. The analysis of the complete study data shows that the primary effect goal of reducing the number of headache days was achieved with statistical significance. A subgroup analysis of the German patient group was presented as a poster at Migraine Trust International Symposium MTIS 2022, September 8–11, in London. The authors’ summary:

“The subgroup analysis shows that KOS is an effective and safe alternative for preventive treatment of chronic migraines. KOS will be a valuable non-pharmacological treatment alternative with a more beneficial side-effect profile than systematic treatments [medicine].”

The subgroup analysis shows a reduction in headache days by around 2.5 days more after KOS treatment than for the group that received the placebo. The difference was statistically significant with a so-called p-value of 0.014 (<0.05 is significant). To put this in context, it is accepted practice for a one-day reduction to be considered clinically relevant. A reduction of 2.5 days is therefore very good.

Another important aspect that the subgroup analysis published was the percentage of patients that respond to the treatment. Under international guidelines for migraine studies, a chronic migraine patient who experiences more than 30 percent fewer headache days is considered to have responded to the treatment. The subgroup analysis shows that 41.4 percent responded to active KOS treatment, and 14.9 percent in the placebo group. The difference of 26.5 percent is therefore very good.

We have recently been able to announce that the statistical analysis of the entire study has now been completed, and the results published in the subgroup analysis have now been confirmed to be at least as good or better with statistical significance.

It is very important for the company's value for the complete study to be published in a well-respected scientific journal. For this to happen, the results may not have been published in any other way prior to this. We are therefore being careful not to reveal the results in detail. Once the submitted article has been approved for publication, we will be able to report the full results. It is not possible to predict how long this will take, but it should take a only a few months.

It would be hard to overemphasize the importance of these strong and clear study results for us. Not just that we have now delivered on what may be the most important of our interim goals for an exit, but mainly because this now gives us access to the market with a sought-after alternative to medicinal treatment.

Roll-out at five neurology congresses
The premier for the subgroup analysis was at MTIS in London. We then repeated the presentation at the Italian migraine congress SISC 2022 in Palermo, the German pain congress in Mannheim, the Israeli migraine association's meeting in Tel Aviv and, finally, Neurological Days in Helsinki during the first week of November. We attracted a lot of interest at all of the events, and we held many sales pitches together with each market actor.

Going forward
To continue to deliver on the strategic plan, we will focus on marketing and sales in 2023. According to our analysis, being able to show that we can build market shares in several carefully selected markets (proof-of-concept) is a crucial step for a good exit for our shareholders.

The projects on market authorization in the USA and China continue.

The Board has convened an Extraordinary General Meeting to resolve on a rights issue for financing the next step in the strategic plan. The subscription period is in December 2022. Information about the general meeting and the issue is available in the notice and the prospectus that will be published on our website within the prescribed period of time.

Chordate Medical Holding AB (publ)
the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of Chordate Medical Holding AB (publ) proposes a rights issue of approximately 51,3 MSEK

NOT FOR RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, WITHIN OR INTO THE UNITED STATES, AUSTRALIA, BELARUS, HONG KONG, JAPAN, CANADA, NEW ZEALAND, RUSSIA, SWITZERLAND, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA, SOUTH KOREA OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE THE RELEASE, DISTRIBUTION OR PUBLICATION OF THIS PRESS RELEASE WOULD BE UNLAWFUL OR WOULD REQUIRE ADDITIONAL REGISTRATIONS OR OTHER MEASURES.

The Board of Directors of Chordate Medical Holding AB (publ) (”Chordate Medical” or the ”Company”), which is listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market (”Nasdaq First North”), has today, November 17, 2022, proposed that an extraordinary general meeting on December 5, 2022, resolve to carry out an issue of shares with preferential rights for the Company's shareholders amounting to approximately 51,3 MSEK (the “Rights Issue”).The Company has received subscription undertakings from main shareholders and members of the Board of Directors and management corresponding to approximately 33 percent of the Rights Issue. Notice to the extraordinary general meeting will be published through a separate press release. The Rights Issue enables Chordate Medical to penetrate selected markets in order to achieve strategic – and potentially value-creating – targets.

Background and reasons for the Rights Issue

Chordate Medical is a Swedish company that, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Chordate Medical AB, develops, sells and markets K.O.S (Kinetic Oscillation Stimulation), a patented and CE-marked nerve stimulation technology for the treatment of chronic migraine and chronic rhinitis.

K.O.S is a simple and cost-effective treatment without drugs that has demonstrated, in several clinical studies, to be free of unexpected side effects. In a first subgroup analysis, consisting of 92 German patients from the Company's patient study on K.O.S against chronic migraine that ended in August 2022, a statistically significant reduction in the number of headache days could be reported. The subgroup results provide support for market activities within the migraine market and the ongoing work with the Company's FDA application. The market for treatments against migraine is larger than the market for treatments for rhinitis, so success in the migraine area is a significant step in Chordate Medical's exit strategy, which consists of three parts:

• Broad patent portfolio – Chordate Medical has 71 granted patents grouped into 9 patent families in 26 markets and 3 more patent applications are pending.

• Scientific evidence – The second part of the strategy is to produce scientifically based evidence for treatment’s clinical effect on the two indications.

• Proof of concept – The third part is to show early market penetration in selected markets in order to demonstrate the value of the technology.

The Board of Directors assesses that existing working capital is not sufficient to conduct business for the next twelve-month period. In order to accelerate the work towards an exit, primarily through continued investments in the migraine market with the support of the latest study results, the Board of Directors has resolved to propose the Rights Issue. If fully subscribed, the Rights Issue is estimated to raise approximately 51.3 MSEK to Chordate Medical before costs related to the issue. The proceeds from the issuance is intended to be distributed in accordance with the percentages set out below and, in the event that not all measures can be implemented, according to the following priority:

• 20% is allocated to market registration and product releases.

• 25% is allocated to supporting clinical studies.

• 55% is allocated to market strategic activities and other working capital.

Terms and conditions of the Rights Issue

The Board of Directors’ proposal to the extraordinary general meeting includes that the Rights Issue be carried out in accordance with the main conditions set out below.

  • The right to subscribe for shares with preferential rights shall vest in those who are registered as shareholders in the Company on the record date, 12th December 2022 pro rata to their shareholdings in the Company. One (1) existing share entitles to one (1) subscription right.
  • Twenty (20) subscription rights entitles to subscription of thirteen (13) shares in the Company.  
  • The Rights Issue will increase the number of shares by maximum 102 513 047.
  • The subscription price is 0,50 SEK per share. No commission is charged.
  • The subscription period runs from December 14, 2022, up to and including December 29, 2022.
  • If not all of the shares are subscribed for through the exercise of subscription rights, the Board of Directors shall, within the scope of the maximum amount of the Rights Issue, resolve on allotment of shares subscribed for without the exercise of subscription rights, whereby allotment (i) firstly, shall be made to those who have also subscribed for shares through the exercise of subscription rights, regardless of whether the subscriber was a shareholder on the record date or not, and, in the event allotment to these cannot be made in full, allotment shall be made pro rata in relation to their subscription through their subscription rights and, where this is not possible, through a drawing of lots; and (ii) secondly, shall be made to others who have subscribed for shares in the Rights Issue without exercise of subscription rights and, in the event allotment to these cannot be made in full, allotment shall be made pro rata in relation to the number of shares each subscribed for and, where this is not possible, through a drawing of lots.
  • If the Rights Issue is fully subscribed, the Company will receive approximately 51,3 MSEK before issue costs.
  • Trading in paid subscription shares (Sw.BTA”) is expected to start at Nasdaq First North from 14 December 2022 until the Rights Issue is registered by the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Sw.Bolagsverket”). The Rights Issue is expected to be registered around mid January 2023.

Change of share capital and number of shares and dilution

Through the Rights Issue, the number of shares in Chordate Medical will increase by a maximum of 102 513 047 shares, from 157 712 380 shares to 260 225 427 shares, and the share capital will increase by maximum 25 628 261,75 SEK, from 39 428 095 SEK to 65 056 356,75 SEK. This means that existing shareholders who choose not to participate in the Rights Issue will, if fully subscribed, experience a dilution of approximately 39.4 per cent of their votes and capital in the Company.

Subscription undertakings

In connection with the Rights Issue, the Company has received subscription undertakings from the Company’s existing shareholders and members of the Board of Directors and management amounting to a total of approximately 16,7 MSEK. Those who have entered into subscription undertakings are HAWOC Investment AB, Sifonen AB, Tommy Hedberg, Magnus Brandberg, Bevaclean AB and Anders Weilandt.

Statistical significance confirmed in final analysis of Chordate’s PM007 multicenter clinical study of the K.O.S technology for preventive treatment of chronic migraine

Chordate Medical Holding AB (publ) ("Chordate") (Nasdaq FirstNorth Stockholm: CMH), a specialty medtech company that focuses on developing neuromodulating systems for treating chronic migraine, today announces that final data analysis confirms the statistically significant results from the subgroup analysis presented as a poster early September at the Migraine Trust International Symposium 2022, London.

Primary Objective
The statistical analysis of the Full Analysis Set derived from a total of 140 randomized subjects, randomized to receive active K.O.S-treatment, or sham-treatment, reached the Primary Endpoint goal by demonstrating a significantly reduced number of monthly headache days (MHD) with moderate to severe intensity from baseline.

Secondary Objectives
Response Rate data defined as ≥30% reduction in MHD with moderate to severe intensity from baseline demonstrated significance. Other Secondary endpoints demonstrated significant or favorable results.
The study data contains no treatment related serious adverse events.
The final study data will be communicated by Chordate in detail once the first scientific article manuscript has been accepted for publication.
“The value for us as a company to have the final data confirming this level of success, and added to our strategic scientific evidence base, is simply immense. By this we can deliver in full on the hypothesis that K.O.S, a non-drug medical device solution for preventive treatment of chronic migraine, is a valid treatment option, that can change the lives of many patients to the better. As we are cautious about preserving the scientific news-value in the coming publication of one or more articles, we will have to await approval-for-publication before we communicate the results in detail”, says Anders Weilandt, CEO of Chordate.

About the PM007 trial
This randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind, multicenter study was conducted at five neurology clinics in Germany and four in Finland. The study randomized 140 subjects and was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the K.O.S-treatment. Primary endpoint was to detect mean change from baseline (4-week screening period, 4-week follow-up period) in monthly headache days with moderate to severe intensity, following weekly treatments for six weeks. Fifty percent of the subjects received active K.O.S-treatment from the S211 investigative device, and fifty percent received a validated sham/placebo treatment from the same equipment.

The study enrolled subjects with diagnosed chronic migraine (≥15 days/month of headache, whereof >8 days with migraine) and saw the last subject leaving the study at the beginning of August 2022.
