ASX Announcement – MICRO-X LIMITED (ASX: MX1)
COMPLETION OF CAPITAL RAISE VIA UNSECURED MANDATORILY CONVERTIBLE NOTE ISSUE
Micro-X Limited (ASX: MX1) is pleased to advise the market of the successful, fully subscribed private placement of 30,000 Unsecured Mandatorily Convertible Notes to raise A$3,000,000 (the ‘Note Issue’). Micro-X received strong support for this follow-on capital raise from existing institutional investors.
Micro-X Managing Director, Peter Rowland commented that “While we recently received a $3.8M cash refund from the Australian Taxation Office under the qualifying R&D tax incentive rebate scheme we believe raising a little additional capital now, ahead of the completion of our proposed strategic partnering process, is opportune. The additional funding will provide Micro-X appropriate financial flexibility to continue to push forward with the acceleration of the MBI and Rover in the short term.”
The funds raised will provide general working capital to support production ramp-up of the Carestream DRX Revolution Nano while Micro-X works towards entry into a partnership that involves a strategic technology development collaboration alongside a material financial investment. Micro-X expects to complete the partnering process during the December quarter and looks forward to announcing final details to the market.
