17 June 2020
NOT FOR RELEASE TO US WIRE SERVICES OR DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES
COMVITA LIMITED SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES THE RETAIL COMPONENT OF ITS
1 FOR 4.15 PRO RATA ACCELERATED ENTITLEMENT OFFER
Comvita Limited (Comvita) is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed the retail
entitlement offer component (Retail Entitlement Offer) of its 1 for 4.15 pro-rata non-renounceable
accelerated entitlement offer (Entitlement Offer) as announced on Thursday, 28 May 2020. A total
of NZ$50 million was raised under the Entitlement Offer and the institutional placement (Placement).
The Retail Entitlement Offer closed at 5pm (NZST) on Friday, 12 June 2020 and raised gross
proceeds of NZ$15.8 million. The Retail Entitlement Offer received very strong support from
Comvita’s Eligible Retail Shareholders.
As a result of the effective take-up rate of approximately 105%, shareholders who applied for
allocations via the oversubscription facility will be scaled on a pro-rata basis. This means that
shareholders will receive 100% of their own entitlements for which they applied and approximately
87% of their applications for New Shares above their own entitlements. There will be no Shares
allotted to the underwriters and sub-underwriters of the Retail Entitlement Offer.
The New Shares to be issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer are expected to commence trading
on the NZX Main Board on Friday, 19 June 2020 and will rank equally with existing Shares.
Holding statements for New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be dispatched by
the Registrar, Link Market Services Limited, on Friday, 19 June 2020.

Shareholders who have any questions about the Entitlement Offer are encouraged to read the Offer
Document and seek financial, investment or other professional advice from a qualified professional
adviser.
