Secret clause could derail Ørsted’s capital increase
The prospectus for the capital increase shows that both the Danish government and the banks have secured the introduction of clauses that allow them to withdraw from the share issue.
Ørsted plans to sell 900.8 million new shares at a price of just DKK 66.60, which is significantly below the closing price of DKK 200.30 on the Friday before the prospectus was published.
