Shopify Launches Offering of Class A Subordinate Voting Shares
22 Février 2021 - 10:35PM
Business Wire
Shopify Inc. (NYSE:SHOP)(TSX:SHOP) (“Shopify”) today announced
that it has filed a preliminary prospectus supplement (the
“Preliminary Supplement”) to its short form base shelf prospectus
dated August 6, 2020 (the “Base Shelf Prospectus”). The Preliminary
Supplement was filed in connection with a public offering of
Shopify’s Class A subordinate voting shares (the “Offering”). The
Preliminary Supplement has been filed with the securities
regulatory authorities in each of the provinces and territories of
Canada, except Québec. The Preliminary Supplement has also been
filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
as part of Shopify’s registration statement on Form F-10 (the
“Registration Statement”) under the U.S./Canada Multijurisdictional
Disclosure System.
A total of 1,180,000 Class A subordinate voting shares will be
offered by Shopify for sale under the Offering, which will be led
by Citigroup, Credit Suisse and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the
“Underwriters”). Shopify will grant the Underwriters an
over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 15% of the
Class A subordinate voting shares to be sold pursuant to the
Offering (the “Over-Allotment Option”). The Over-Allotment Option
will be exercisable for a period of 30 days from the date of the
final prospectus supplement relating to the Offering. Allen &
Company LLC is acting as special advisor to the Company with
respect to the Offering.
Shopify expects to use the net proceeds from the Offering to
strengthen its balance sheet, providing flexibility to fund its
growth strategies.
Closing of the Offering will be subject to a number of closing
conditions, including the listing of the Class A subordinate voting
shares to be issued under the Offering on the NYSE and the TSX.

We were proudly founded in Ottawa, Canada, but prefer to think
of the company location as Internet, Everywhere. Shopify is a
company of and by the internet, and we have physical outposts
around the world. The archaic newswire system doesn’t allow us to
acknowledge this fact, so we will henceforth keep this paragraph in
our press releases until technology improves.
Forward-looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking information and
forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable
securities laws (“forward-looking statements”) including statements
regarding the proposed Offering, the terms of the Offering and the
proposed use of proceeds. Words such as “expects”, “continue”,
“will”, “plans”, “anticipates” and “intends” or similar expressions
are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are based on Shopify’s current
expectations about future events and financial trends that
management believes might affect its financial condition, results
of operations, business strategy and financial needs, and on
certain assumptions and analysis made by Shopify in light of the
experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions
and expected future developments and other factors management
believes are appropriate. These projections, expectations,
assumptions and analyses are subject to known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that could cause
actual results, performance, events and achievements to differ
materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements. Although Shopify believes that the assumptions
underlying these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they
may prove to be incorrect, and readers cannot be assured that the
Offering discussed above will be completed on the terms described
above. Completion of the proposed Offering is subject to numerous
factors, many of which are beyond Shopify’s control, including but
not limited to, the failure of customary closing conditions and
other important factors disclosed previously and from time to time
in Shopify’s filings with the SEC and the securities commissions or
similar securities regulatory authorities in each of the provinces
or territories of Canada. The forward-looking statements contained
in this news release represent Shopify’s expectations as of the
date of this news release, or as of the date they are otherwise
stated to be made, and subsequent events may cause these
expectations to change. Shopify undertakes no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except
as may be required by law.
