Advanced Braking Technology Ltd (ASX: ABV) (‘ABT’ or the ‘Company’) today announced it has secured commitments to raise $2.7 million at the effective issue price of A$0.007 per share in an oversubscribed share placement to institutions and sophisticated investors.

Under the placement, 272 million shares will be issued within the Company’s 15% capacity to issue without shareholder approval.

An additional 114 million shares will be issued within the Company’s 10% capacity to issue under Listing Rule 7.1A, as approved by shareholders at the 27 November 2015 Annual General Meeting.

Funds received from the placement will be used to:

  • Fund repayment of $1.345m of Convertible Notes, expiring on 15 August 2016

  • Provide additional working capital to fund future developments

ABT’s Chief Executive Officer Mr Graeme Sumner, said the strong support from investors was very pleasing.

“The funds raised by the share placement and the strong over subscription are an endorsement of our market diversification strategy and will allow us to further develop our new Terra Dura polymer and hybrid brakes for the retail and mining markets.”

The placement was undertaken by the Company with the advice and support of Taylor Collison and Scintilla Capital.
