Admission to Trading on AIM
On 6th March 2020 admission and dealings commenced in the Ordinary Shares on AIM by way of a Placing of 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares at a price of 80p per Ordinary Share.
Reasons for the admission
The Directors believe that Admission represents an important step in the Group’s development. A public listing naturally enhances the Group’s profile and the Directors believe it will also assist in the growth of the Group’s business, provide access to equity capital and provide the Group with the ability to incentivise its existing and future employees through the EIP incentive arrangements, which will assist the Group in continuing to attract, retain and motivate high calibre staff at all levels.
The net proceeds of the Placing will principally be used by the Company to strengthen its balance sheet and to fund opportunistic acquisitions.
