EP&T GLOBAL LIMITED (ASX:EPX)

EPX RECEIVES COMMITMENTS FOR $1.0 MILLION PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Building energy optimisation company EP&T Global Limited ( ASX: EPX ) (EP&T or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce it has received commitments from existing shareholders to raise $1,000,000 through a placement of new fully paid ordinary shares in the Company (“ Placement ”).

PLACEMENT HIGHLIGHTS

  • Total of $1.0 million to be raised.

  • Australian Ethical Emerging Companies Fund commits to 50% ($0.5m) of the Placement.

  • Issue price of $0.020 per share, is a 11% premium to the 27 November 2024 closing price and in line with the 20-day VWAP[1] .

  • Proceeds will be used to fund sales growth of EDGE Industrial (Coda Cloud acquisition 2 October 2024)

Following the successful acquisition of Coda Cloud’s technology and assets, EP&T received interest from institutional investors to further invest in the Company to support EP&T in its growth plan.

Proceeds from the Placement will be allocated to advancing sales growth of the Coda acquisition. The growth opportunity was outlined in the publicly released material on the acquisition of Coda Cloud’s technology and business assets, as released on 2 October 2024. The commitment from institutional shareholders is contingent on the customary conditions of EPX meeting its continuous disclosure requirements with respect to information that may have an effect on the Company, its prospects or share price and providing notice under section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (‘Cleansing Notice’).

New shares issued under the Placement will be utilising EPX’s existing capacity under Listing Rule 7.1 and will rank pari passu with existing ordinary shares from the date of issue.

Allotment of the new shares is expected to occur on or around 4 December 2024. No lead manager has been appointed for the Placement.

Coda’s technology is propriety technology developed over the past few years. It has complimentary data accuracy capability and will support EP&T to service industrial property owners, such as transport assets (rail stations, bus depots), telecommunication and data centre owners. The Coda technology is currently installed in over 200 sites in the United Kingdom (UK), with its primary use being to monitor, manage and control, energy usage in transport depots, train stations and energy intensive sites (e.g. telecommunication centres). This ability to remotely visualise via a digital twin, and manage industrial property assets, including managing fault detection and equipment maintenance data, is growing in importance as property owners seek to obtain greater reduction in energy consumption and Co2e emissions. By way of example, the UK rail network alone, has over 2,000[2] mainline stations
