KATHMANDU ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL CLOSING OF SHARE PURCHASE PLAN

Kathmandu Holdings Limited (ASX:KMD, NZX:KMD) (“ Kathmandu ” or the “ Company ”) is pleased to announce that it’s NZ$8 million Share Purchase Plan (“ SPP ”) has closed oversubscribed. Under the SPP, Kathmandu has the ability to accept up to NZ$2 million in oversubscriptions. Kathmandu has elected to accept oversubscriptions for the full NZ$2 million bringing the total subscriptions under the SPP to NZ$10 million.

Kathmandu’s Chairperson, David Kirk said “we are delighted with the extent of support, both for our institutional placement last month and for the Share Purchase Plan, and the affirmation by our shareholders of our growth plans for the business. The Board would like to thank all those shareholders who participated in the SPP for their continuing support of Kathmandu.”

Under the SPP, the price payable for shares is NZ$2.16, which is the same price paid by investors in the NZ$40 million institutional placement conducted on 20 March 2018.

The SPP received strong shareholder support with Kathmandu receiving applications from 1,516 eligible shareholders with subscriptions totalling NZ$14,474,687.84, exceeding the offer size of NZ$8 million by 80.93%. As a result of the oversubscription, in accordance with the terms of the SPP, Kathmandu will scale back all applications on a proportionate basis having regard to the size of existing shareholdings at 7pm on 19 March 2018 (the record date).
