Janison completes successful Share Purchase Plan
Janison Education Group Limited ( ASX:JAN ) (“ Janison ” or the “ Company ”) is pleased to advise that it has completed a successful Share Purchase Plan (SPP) which was announced on 24 June 2021. As a result of strong demand in excess of the original target, the size of the SPP has been increased to $3.0m, representing an increase of $1.0m above the original target but a scale back from the total value of applications received.
The decision to increase the SPP to $3.0 million was made in the interests of fairness to retail investors. As the total amount of valid applications received exceeded the revised SPP size, applications for the SPP have been subject to a scale-back. As set out in the terms and conditions of the SPP booklet, the scale-back was made on a pro-rata basis based on the number of SPP Shares applied for by each Eligible Holder.
A total of approximately 3.7 million new fully paid ordinary shares are expected to be issued (SPP Shares) to SPP applicants at a price of $0.82 per Share. The SPP follows Janison’s successful $15 million placement to new and existing institutional investors in June 2021.
The SPP Shares will be issued today, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 and will commence trading on the ASX on Friday, 23 July 2021. Holding statements are expected to be dispatched to successful applicants on Thursday, 22 July 2021.
Funds raised will enable Janison to capitalise on revenue growth opportunities across the PISA and ICAS products, invest in product development and acquisitions, and strengthen the balance sheet by providing working capital flexibility.
The Janison team appreciates the overwhelming support shown by its retail investors over the last year and would like to thank them for their ongoing commitment to our future plans.
Refunds
Refunds for application monies as a result of the scale back will be processed on, Wednesday, 21 July 2021 and refund cheques will be dispatched once the NSW Government Covid-19 restrictions are lifted. To enable shareholders to receive their refund by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), shareholders are strongly encouraged to update their bank details on the Automic Investor Portal at https://investor.automic.com.au/#/home as soon as practicable.
