The sale will have a low impact on result and liquidity.  The equity effect of the planned debt conversion was booked in the group accounts through the restructuring on the 28th February 2017 and the sale will cause minor equity adjustments.

A detailed message will be sent as soon as the sale processes are finalized and warrant exercise notices have been received.
