As a result, we are advancing with organic and radical innovations in our lighting solutions and continue to invest in our market presence initiatives.<br \/>Onze innovatie-initiatieven op het gebied van lichtoplossingen zijn geconcentreerd op drie kerngebieden: kaskweekoplossingen, commerci\u00eble oplossingen voor verticale kweek en ons besturings- en automatiseringssoftwareplatform - helioCORE. Deze kerngebieden zijn waar de marktvraag het grootst is en waar we naar onze mening onze leidende positie kunnen behouden en vergroten met betrekking tot het leveren van volledig ge\u00efntegreerde oplossingen aan onze telers. De resultaten van deze ontwikkelingsprojecten zullen in de komende twee kwartalen worden gerapporteerd.<br \/>With respect to expansion into new markets, this quarter we have launched Heliospectra Canada inc.,<br \/>based in Toronto, Ontario. We continue to build localized, professional teams that will be based closer to our customers&#8217; sites and share Heliospectra&#8217;s technical prowess and horticulture expertise with growers and cultivators directly. Part of our decision to open Heliospectra Canada Inc. was to respond to growing demand from licensed producers of cannabis in Canada and address their needs for high-tech and data-driven production facilities with our intelligent and integrated lighting solutions. The legalization act by Canadian federal and provincial governments has created an industry that is expected to generate more than seven billion dollars of revenue in 2019 and considering the high demand for our holistic lighting solutions, including our helioCORE and helioCARE products, we will continue to be at the forefront of this growing Canadian marketplace.<br \/>To finance these efforts, we performed a successful rights issue resulting in a capital increase of 52,7 MSEK before deduction of transaction costs. The subscription rate was 76% whereby the guarantors Weland Group and Midroc New Technology increased their ownership positions to 39% and 11,5% respectively. Going forward, approximately 30 percent of the proceeds are intended to be used to further strengthen the Company&#8217;s financial position while the remaining capital is intended to be placed against the following prioritized objectives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>40% of the funds will be used for strategic repositioning of the business and expand the company&#8217;s addressable market and stabilize future cash flows. This will be achieved through licensing fees of the<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">helioCORE control system while offering customers the benefits of the technology and expertise of helioCARE.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">20% will be used to showcase the new business model through reference cases with strategic customers, primarily in the food sector<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">10% voor verdere productontwikkeling in verticale landbouw.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Wat het financi\u00eble resultaat van het eerste kwartaal van 2019 betreft, lagen de inkomsten en de brutowinst op hetzelfde niveau als vorig jaar. Onze bedrijfsresultaten daalden met 39%, voornamelijk als gevolg van onze investeringen in expansie. Deze inspanningen werden opgestart tijdens het derde kwartaal van 2018.<br \/>Ons doel in 2019 is om onze groeistrategie voort te zetten door onbetwist marktleiderschap op het gebied van kwaliteit te bieden, klantenservice van wereldklasse te leveren en de bedrijfsprestaties voortdurend te verbeteren. Met deze missie in gedachten geloven we dat onze innovatie en visie Heliospectra de komende kwartalen zullen blijven voortstuwen. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Ali Ahmadian, VD<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Heliospectra AB (publ)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Ga voor het volledige rapport naar:&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/ir.heliospectra.com\/en\/reports-downloads\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/ir.heliospectra.com\/en\/reports-downloads\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Gothenburg 2019-04-26<\/p>\n<div class=\"mfn-footer\"><hl2>Investeerdersrelaties:<\/hl2><\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Ali Ahmadian, CEO van Heliospectra | +46 (0)72 203 6344 <virtloc>| ir@heliospectra.com<\/virtloc><\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\">Redeye is Heliospectra Certified Advisor voor Nasdaq First North - www.redeye.se<br \/><virtloc>Certifiedadviser@redeye.se | +46<\/virtloc>(0)8 121 576 90<\/p>\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\"><a href=\"https:\/\/heliospectra.com\/nl\/\">http:\/\/www.heliospectra.com<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mfn-footer mfn-attachment mfn-attachment-general\">\n<p class=\"mfn-wp-retain\"><strong class=\"mfn-heading-1\">Bijlagen<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/mb.cision.com\/Main\/5333\/2797539\/1032499.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PDF<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/mb.cision.com\/Public\/5333\/2797539\/9aa0ea704c7200c0.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PDF<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.cision.com\/heliospectra\/i\/financial-report-q1-2019-heliospectra,c2616294\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bestand<\/a><\/p>\n<\/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\"><a class=\"mfn-attachment-link\" href=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/pdf.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FMain%2F5333%2F2797539%2F1032499.pdf\"><span class=\"mfn-attachment-icon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/pdf.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FMain%2F5333%2F2797539%2F1032499.pdf&type=jpg\"><\/span>PDF<\/a><\/div><div class=\"mfn-attachment\"><a class=\"mfn-attachment-link\" href=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/pdf.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FPublic%2F5333%2F2797539%2F9aa0ea704c7200c0.pdf\"><span class=\"mfn-attachment-icon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy\/pdf.pdf?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmb.cision.com%2FPublic%2F5333%2F2797539%2F9aa0ea704c7200c0.pdf&type=jpg\"><\/span>PDF<\/a><\/div><div class=\"mfn-attachment\"><a class=\"mfn-attachment-link\" href=\"https:\/\/storage.mfn.se\/proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnews.cision.com%2Fheliospectra%2Fi%2Ffinancial-report-q1-2019-heliospectra%2Cc2616294\"><span class=\"mfn-attachment-icon\"><span class=\"dash dashicons dashicons-media-default\"><\/span><\/span>Bestand<\/a><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GOTHENBURG, Sweden\/SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April 26th, 2019 &#8211; Heliospectra AB (publ) (OTCQB: HLSPY, FIRSTNORTH: HELIO), a world leader in intelligent lighting technology for controlled environments horticulture, today present their Interim Management Statement for January to March 2019.
