GEVORKYAN has raised over US$10 million in equity through an ABB

March 2026 — GEVORKYAN AS has raised more than US$10 million in equity through an accelerated bookbuild offering (ABB). The company received the full net proceeds from the transaction, enabling further expansion of its production capacity, continued technological innovation and a stronger position in international markets, including investments in robotization and automation.

GEVORKYAN is a powder metallurgy company based in Slovakia. The company specializes in sintering, metal powder injection molding, hot isostatic pressing and additive manufacturing. GEVORKYAN serves customers across diverse sectors, including oil and gas, agriculture, cosmetics and fashion, hand tools and defense. In FY 2025, the company generated revenue of approximately $US97 million and EBITDA of US$34 million. It has experienced strong growth in recent years through both organic and inorganic expansion, including notable acquisitions in Sweden and Italy. GEVORKYAN is listed on the Prague Stock Exchange (PSE).

Our role in the transaction

Oaklins’ team in the Czech Republic acted as the sole global coordinator in this transaction. The team targeted regional and local institutional investors as well as local high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), securing orders from more than 30 investors. This demonstrates strong demand for local investment opportunities and the ability to generate interest in lower-liquidity situations on the PSE. The team also engaged one of the Czech Republic’s leading brokers as a selling agent to access the new, non-institutional investor segment. The book was fully covered and closed on 18 March 2025 with oversubscription and a strong investor mix at the deal price of US$4.40. Trading commenced on the PSE on 19 March 2025. The team successfully completed the ABB, representing GEVORKYAN’s first follow-on transaction since its IPO in June 2022 and the first such transaction for a company that had transitioned from the START market for developing SMEs to the regulated Prime Market of the PSE. Following the transaction, the free float increased from 17.8% to 23.3%, supporting improved liquidity in the company’s shares.
