On Monday, 9 July 2020, KGL Resources Limited ( KGL or the Company ) announced a 2 for 25 nonrenounceable entitlement issue for ordinary KGL shares ( New Shares ) at an offer price of $0.16 to raise approximately $3,991,272 ( Entitlement Offer ).
The Entitlement Offer closed at 5.00pm (AEDT) on Friday, 31 July 2020 raising a total of $3,828,786.88 (including from the top-up facility) before costs, representing a total subscription of approximately 96% .
The Executive Chairman of KGL, Mr Denis Wood, thanked shareholders for their ongoing support of the Company,
“In these uncertain times, the confidence shown by shareholders in the Company and the Jervois Copper Project is greatly appreciated,” Mr Wood said.
“Of particular importance was the decision by KGL’s largest shareholder, KMP Investments Pte Ltd, to take up its full entitlement. KMP has provided vital leadership in consistently supporting the capital raising required to bring the Jervois project to this final pre-development stage.”
KGL received valid applications under the Entitlement Offer for approximately 23,929,918 New Shares (including under the top-up facility), representing approximately 96% of the 24,945,448 New Shares offered to eligible shareholders.
The applications included participation by KGL major shareholders KMP Investments Pte Ltd and Denis Wood (on behalf of his controlled entities) for their full entitlements, in line with previously announced commitments.
Applications from eligible shareholders for additional New Shares under the top up facility totalled $1,379,408 . As applications under the top up facility did not exceed the shortfall, all eligible shareholders that applied for additional New Shares under the top up facility will be issued the number of New Shares for which they applied.
KGL reserves the right, subject to the requirements of the ASX Listing Rules and the relevant law, to place the remaining shortfall within three (3) months of the closing date at a price not less than the issue price of $0.16.
The issue and allotment of the New Shares under the Entitlement Offer is scheduled to occur on Friday, 7 August 2020, and ASX trading of the new shares expected to commence on Monday, 10 August 2020.
