CROMWELL FINALISES RIGHTS ISSUE SHORTFALL FACILITY
Cromwell Group (ASX: CMW) (“Cromwell”) announces that, with effect from close of business yesterday (6 October 2010), it has closed the shortfall facility under its Rights Issue and expects to issue final securities under it shortly. An additional $7.7 million was raised under the shortfall facility, with 10.7 million fully paid ordinary stapled securities being issued, or to be issued, at $0.72 per security.
In total, Cromwell’s recent capital raising successfully raised over $75 million. Of the 101,791,306 stapled securities issued, or to be issued, as a result, 72,000,000 were issued at $0.75 under the Placement, 19,051,708 were issued at $0.72 under the Rights Issue and 10,739,598 were, and will be, issued at $0.72 under the shortfall facility.
The shortfall facility price represents a small 0.7% premium to the closing security price of $0.715 on 5 October 2010, the 30 day VWAP to 5 October 2010 and the 60 day VWAP 5 October 2010.
All new stapled securities issued under the shortfall facility are entitled to participate in the September 2010 quarter distribution and rank equally with other ordinary stapled securities. The record date for the September 2010 quarter distribution is 14 October 2010.
Cromwell had previously advised that it will consider a partial syndication of up to 50% of the Qantas Headquarters in Mascot, Sydney, to the extent that less than $85 million was raised under the issue. Cromwell now intends the asset will remain wholly owned by the Group. The Group also continues to work towards the sale of a select number of smaller non-core assets, such as the recently announced sale of Village Cinemas Hobart.
The issue of securities under the shortfall facility does not impact on Cromwell’s forecast operating earnings (7.3 – 7.8cps) and forecast distributions (7.0 – 7.4cps) for the 2011 financial year.
