Lalique, whose shares will be delisted in Bern, issued 1 million new shares via a rights issue, of which nearly all were taken up. Shareholders got one new share for every five they held at an issue price of 30 francs.

Shares that were not subscribed were offered via a bookbuilding process and placed at 40 francs each.

Chairman Silvio Denz will hold a stake of just over 72 percent and the free float will be just under 28 percent.

The capital increase raised gross proceeds of 8.5 million Swiss francs (6.5 million pounds), excluding conversion of shareholder loans into shares.
