Seeing Machines Limited

Proposed Placing and Subscription to raise approximately £30 million (approx. AUD$53 million)

Proposed Offer of new Ordinary Shares to Qualifying Participants to raise up to£2.4 million (approx. AUD$4.3 million)

4 December 2017

Seeing Machines Limited (AIM: SEE) ("Seeing Machines" or the "Company"), an industry leader in computer vision technologies which enable machines to see, understand and assist people, today announces its intention to conduct an accelerated bookbuild (the "Bookbuild") to raise gross proceeds of approximately £30 million (approximately AUD$53 million) by way of a conditional placing (the "Placing") and subscription of ordinary shares of no par value in the Company ("Ordinary Shares").

Pursuant to the Placing and the Subscriptions (as defined below), approximately 600,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") will be issued at a price of 5 pence each in the Company (the "Placing Price") and will represent approximately 40.2 per cent. of the Company's current issued Ordinary Share capital. The Placing is being made available to institutional investors in the UK and Europe only and is not being made available to the public.

Seeing Machines has entered into a placing agreement with finnCap Ltd ("finnCap"), Canaccord Genuity Limited ("Canaccord Genuity") and Cenkos Securities plc ("Cenkos") to act as the joint bookrunners in relation to the Placing (together the "Bookrunners").

The Company is also pleased to confirm that its largest shareholder and strategic investor, V S International Venture Pte. Ltd ("VS International"), has confirmed in writing that it intends to subscribe directly with the Company for Ordinary Shares in the Company at the same issue price and at the same time as the Placing (the "VSI Subscription") in order to maintain its current shareholding of 11.7% in the Company following completion of the Placing and the Subscription.

Certain of the Directors and members of the Company's senior management team and Directors and members of VS International have indicated that they intend to participate in the Placing or make a subscription directly with the Company for Ordinary Shares, in either case at the same issue price and at the same time as the Placing (the "Management Subscription", and together with the VSI Subscription, the "Subscriptions").

The Placing will open with immediate effect following release of this announcement and will be conducted by way of the Bookbuild. Whilst the Company has already conducted a focussed marketing exercise amongst certain shareholders and other investors, and the Company is pleased with the level of indicative support received to date, there can be no certainty at this time that the Placing will be successful. The timing of the closing of the Placing, the number of Placing Shares, the Placing Price and allocations are at the discretion of the Company and Bookrunners and a further announcement confirming these details is expected to be made in due course. The Bookrunners reserve the right to close the Bookbuild without further notice.

Subject to the closing of the Placing, the Company also proposes to make an offer to Qualifying Participants to raise up to a further £2.4 million (approximately AUD$4.3 million) at the Placing Price (the "Offer"). The terms and conditions of the Offer will be set out in a circular to shareholders which will be sent following the successful completion of the Bookbuild.

Mike McAuliffe, CEO of Seeing Machines, commented: 

"We are delighted to announce details of the proposed Placing and the Subscriptions and are pleased with the ongoing support indicated by our largest shareholder, VS International. The proceeds from the Placing and the Subscriptions will enable the business to continue to invest into its Vision AI platform and product development as well as scaling the Company's infrastructure and global footprint to meet sustained customer demand for Fleet business expansion and for our leading edge Automotive DMS solutions."

Use of proceeds from the Placing and Subscriptions

The proceeds of the Placing and Subscriptions will be used to accelerate the Company's investment into its platform and product development programs over the next few market critical years, to support the scaling up of the Company's infrastructure capacity, enhance the Company's ability to meet the growing demands for Fleet business expansion and supporting multiple expected Global Automotive OEM programs.

The use of proceeds is as follows:

· Increasing the R&D headcount and engineering spend for the development of the Company's core platform & products and accelerating the product roadmap

· Scaling up the Automotive Customer Program teams from two to five, supporting the Company's ability to service a greater number of global programs in parallel

· Funding the near term working capital requirements of the Company, including for the rollout of the new Generation Fleet 2.0 product, providing the Company with substantial product advantages and cost savings in the near to medium term

· Developing the Company's next generation Fleet and Automotive aftermarket products

· Investing in supporting the fit out of the new Canberra, US, EU and Japan offices, including spend on specialised laboratories, test equipment, simulators and building the IT infrastructure to support its major machine learning activities and plans 

· Investing in driving the field marketing and technical support of the Company's products and services through expanding the Company's existing Sales, Marketing, Applications and Business Development teams in the major markets

· Investing in the Company's research and development Incubator Innovator ("I2") segment, investing in next generation applications for the Company's technology

Current Trading and Outlook

Further to the update given on 17 October 2017, the Company has continued to experience top-line sales growth for the period to date and is trading in-line with the expectations given at that time.

The positive momentum within the Fleet business has continued, with the Company's pipeline of sales opportunities consisting of close to AUD$200 million. Total contract value (TCV) signed with customers, but not yet delivered, has increased from AUD$21.5 million at 30 June 2017 to AUD$35 million as at 31 October 2017, with approximately half of this expected to be delivered in the current financial year.

The growing ecosystem of Global OEM and Tier 1 partners continues to bring significant new program opportunities to the Company, which includes being in the test stages of its technology, with approximately 20 Global OEMs and Tier 1 partners.

The Company continues to be engaged in discussions with a number of potential financial and commercial partners with regards to various potential partnerships and future strategic investment in the business though no such deal is viewed as imminent at this time.

The Company remains excited by the large and fast growing multi-faceted market opportunities in its Commercial Fleet, Automotive and other operational segments.

As at 30 November 2017, the Company held gross cash balances of AUD$17.6 million, with the Company expecting to receive AUD$1.8 million in cash payments before the end of the calendar year.

The Board of Seeing Machines is seeking to identify potential new Non-Executive Directors to strengthen its Board with expertise in target areas of Finance / Accounting, UK plc/capital markets, High-tech Software, Silicon or Systems and relevant industry expertise such as Automotive. James Palmer is also confirmed to be full time CFO following his interim CFO contract.

Details of the Placing

The timing of the closing of the Placing, the number of Placing Shares, the Placing Price and allocations will be determined by the Company and Bookrunners. An announcement confirming these details will be made in due course. Following the Bookbuild, any decision to proceed with the Placing is solely at the discretion of the Company.

Pursuant to the placing agreement, dated 4 December 2017 between the Bookrunners and the Company (the "Placing Agreement"), the Bookrunners have conditionally agreed, as agents of the Company, to use their reasonable endeavours to procure subscribers for the Placing Shares. The Placing is conditional upon, inter alia, Admission becoming effective on or before 8.00 a.m. (London time) on 3 January 2018 or such later date as may be agreed between the Bookrunners and Company, but in any event no later than 8.00am (London time) on 31 January 2018, and shareholder approval and the Placing Agreement having not been terminated prior to Admission. The Placing Shares will rank equally in all respects with the existing Ordinary Shares. The Placing is not being underwritten by the Bookrunners.

Under the Company's Constitution the Directors may issue new shares up to a cap of 15 per cent. of the Company's issued shares in any twelve-month period (with certain exceptions).

The Board of the Company also reserves the right to issue shares to third parties in the event of a shortfall.

The Offer will be made pursuant to a separate circular, which will include the detailed terms and conditions of the Offer, an application form and an expected timetable. The circular will be sent to all Qualifying Participants shortly after the closing of the Bookbuild, at which point a further announcement will be made and the documents will also be made available at www.seeingmachines.com.

Registration and settlement

If Placees are allocated any Placing Shares in the Placing they will be sent a contract note or electronic confirmation which will confirm the number of Placing Shares allocated to them, the Placing Price and the aggregate amount owed by them to the relevant Bookrunner.

Each Placee will be deemed to agree that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed as directed by the Bookrunners in accordance with either the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions which they have in place with the relevant Bookrunner.

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares (ISIN: AU0000XINAJ0) following Admission will take place within the CREST system, subject to certain exceptions. Settlement through CREST will be on a date notified by the Bookrunners in the contract note (the "Settlement Date"). Settlement will be on a delivery versus payment basis. However, in the event of any difficulties or delays in the admission of the Placing Shares to CREST or the use of CREST in relation to the Placing, the Company and the Bookrunners may agree that the Placing Shares should be issued in certificated form. The Bookrunners reserve the right to require settlement for the Placing Shares, and to deliver the Placing Shares to Placees, by such other means as they deem necessary if delivery or settlement to Placees is not practicable within the CREST system or would not be consistent with regulatory requirements in a Placee's jurisdiction.

Interest is chargeable daily on payments not received from Placees on the due date in accordance with the arrangements set out above, in respect of either CREST or certificated deliveries, at the rate of 2 percentage points above prevailing LIBOR as determined by the Bookrunners.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that if it does not comply with these obligations, the Bookrunners may sell any or all of their Placing Shares on their behalf and retain from the proceeds, for the relevant Bookrunner's own account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the Placing Price which may arise upon the sale of its Placing Shares on its behalf.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees must ensure that, upon receipt, the conditional contract note is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation. Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to United Kingdom stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.

Conditions of the Placing

The Placing is conditional upon the Placing Agreement becoming unconditional and not having been terminated in accordance with its terms.

The obligations of the Bookrunners under the Placing Agreement are, and the Placing is, conditional upon, inter alia:

(a) certain announcement obligations;

(b) delivery of certain documents, including a duly signed copy of the subscription agreement with VS International;

(c) the passing of the shareholder resolutions at the general meeting of the Company to be held on 2 January 2018;

(d) none of the representations, warranties and undertakings on the part of the Company contained in the Placing Agreement being untrue, inaccurate or misleading at the applicable time being the date on which the Placing Agreement was signed, the date of the Placing Results Announcement or Admission, by reference to the facts and circumstances then subsisting;

(e) the Company and the Bookrunners agreeing the final number of Placing Shares and the Placing Price and executing the Pricing Agreement no later than no later than 7.00 a.m. on the Business Day following the date of this Announcement (or such later time and/or date as the Bookrunners may agree with the Company);

(f) the Company having allotted, subject only to Admission, the Placing Shares and the subscription shares to VS International in accordance with the Placing Agreement; and

(g) Admission having become effective at or before 8.00 a.m. on 3 January 2018 or such later time as the Bookrunners may agree with the Company;

(all conditions to the obligations of the Bookrunners included in the Placing Agreement being together, the "conditions").

If any condition set out in the Placing Agreement is not fulfilled or, where permitted, waived in accordance with the Placing Agreement within the stated time periods (or such later time and/or date as the Company and the Bookrunners may agree), or the Placing Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Placing will lapse and the Placee's rights and obligations shall cease and terminate at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by or on behalf of the Placee (or any person on whose behalf the Placee is acting) in respect thereof.

By participating in the Bookbuilding Process, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations cease and terminate only in the circumstances described above and under "Termination of the Placing" below and will not be capable of rescission or termination by it.

The conditions may be waived, in whole or in part, by notice in writing given jointly by the Bookrunners to the Company and the respective times for satisfaction of the conditions may be extended by notice in writing given jointly by the Bookrunners to the Company; save that certain conditions including the condition relating to Admission referred to in paragraph (g) above may not be waived. Any such extension or waiver will not affect Placees' commitments as set out in this Appendix.

finnCap, following prior consultation with the other Bookrunners and such consultation with the Company as the circumstances may allow, may terminate the Placing Agreement in certain circumstances, details of which are set out below.

Neither the Bookrunners nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees nor the Company shall have any liability to any Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) in respect of any decision any of them may make as to whether or not to waive or to extend the time and/or date for the satisfaction of any condition to the Placing nor for any decision any of them may make as to the satisfaction of any condition or in respect of the Placing generally and by participating in the Placing each Placee agrees that any such decision is within the absolute discretion of the Bookrunners.

Termination of the Placing

finnCap, following prior consultation with the other Bookrunners and such consultation with the Company as the circumstances may allow, may in its absolute discretion (acting in good faith), by notice to the Company, terminate the Placing Agreement at any time up to Admission if, inter alia:

(a) there has, in opinion of the Bookrunners (acting in good faith), been a material breach of the warranties given to them;

(b) there has, in the opinion of the Bookrunners (acting in good faith), been a material adverse change affecting, inter alia, the operations or financial condition of the Company;

(c) any statement contained in this Announcement or the Placing Results Announcement is or has become or has been discovered, in the opinion of the Bookrunners (acting in good faith) to be materially untrue or inaccurate; or

(d) in the opinion of the Bookrunners (acting in good faith), there has been a force majeure event.

If the Placing Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the rights and obligations of each Placee in respect of the Placing as described in this Announcement shall cease and terminate at such time and no claim can be made by any Placee in respect thereof.

By participating in the Bookbuilding Process, each Placee agrees with the Company and the Bookrunners that the exercise by the Company or the Bookrunners of any right of termination or any other right or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of the Company or the Bookrunners or for agreement between the Company and the Bookrunners (as the case may be) and that neither the Company nor the Bookrunners need make any reference to such Placee and that none of the Company, the Bookrunners nor any of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees shall have any liability to such Placee (or to any other person whether acting on behalf of a Placee or otherwise) whatsoever in connection with any such exercise.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee agrees that its rights and obligations terminate only in the circumstances described above and under the "Conditions of the Placing" section above and will not be capable of rescission or termination by it after oral confirmation by the Bookrunners following the close of the Bookbuilding Process.

By participating in the Placing, each Placee (and any person acting on such Placee's behalf) agrees to indemnify and hold the Company, the Bookrunners and each of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers and employees harmless from any and all costs, claims, liabilities and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) arising out of or in connection with any breach of the representations, warranties, acknowledgements, agreements and undertakings given by the Placee (and any person acting on such Placee's behalf) in this Appendix or incurred by the Bookrunners, the Company or each of their respective affiliates, agents, directors, officers or employees arising from the performance of the Placee's obligations as set out in this Announcement, and further agrees that the provisions of this Appendix shall survive after the completion of the Placing.

The agreement to allot and issue Placing Shares to Placees (or the persons for whom Placees are contracting as agent) free of stamp duty and stamp duty reserve tax in the United Kingdom relates only to their allotment and issue to Placees, or such persons as they nominate as their agents, direct by the Company. Such agreement assumes that the Placing Shares are not being acquired in connection with arrangements to issue depositary receipts or to transfer the Placing Shares into a clearance service. If there are any such arrangements, or the settlement related to any other dealings in the Placing Shares, stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax may be payable. In that event, the Placee agrees that it shall be responsible for such stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax and neither the Company nor the Bookrunners shall be responsible for such stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. If this is the case, each Placee should seek its own advice and they should notify the Bookrunners accordingly. In addition, Placees should note that they will be liable for any capital duty, stamp duty and all other stamp, issue, securities, transfer, registration, documentary or other duties or taxes (including any interest, fines or penalties relating thereto) payable outside the United Kingdom by them or any other person on the acquisition by them of any Placing Shares or the agreement by them to acquire any Placing Shares and each Placee, or the Placee's nominee, in respect of whom (or in respect of the person for whom it is participating in the Placing as an agent or nominee) the allocation, allotment, issue or delivery of Placing Shares has given rise to such non-United Kingdom stamp, registration, documentary, transfer or similar taxes or duties undertakes to pay such taxes and duties, including any interest and penalties (if applicable), forthwith and to indemnify on an after-tax basis and to hold harmless the Company and the Bookrunners in the event that either the Company and/or the Bookrunners have incurred any such liability to such taxes or duties.

The representations, warranties, acknowledgements and undertakings contained in this Appendix are given to each Bookrunner for itself and on behalf of the Company and are irrevocable.

Canaccord Genuity, finnCap and Cenkos are authorised and regulated by the FCA in the United Kingdom and are acting exclusively for the Company and no one else in connection with the Bookbuilding Process and the Placing, and Canaccord Genuity, finnCap and Cenkos will not be responsible to anyone (including any Placees) other than the Company for providing the protections afforded to their clients or for providing advice in relation to the Bookbuilding Process or the Placing or any other matters referred to in this Announcement.

When a Placee or any person acting on behalf of the Placee is dealing with the Bookrunners, any money held in an account with the relevant Bookrunner on behalf of the Placee and/or any person acting on behalf of the Placee will not be treated as client money within the meaning of the relevant rules and regulations of the FCA made under the FSMA. Each Placee acknowledges that the money will not be subject to the protections conferred by the client money rules: as a consequence this money will not be segregated from the relevant Bookrunner's money in accordance with the client money rules and will be held by it under a banking relationship and not as trustee.
