Quarterly Activities Report March 2015
The Directors of AusROC Metals Limited (ASX: ARK) (“AusROC”or “the company”) are pleased to present the quarterly activities statement for the quarter ended 31 March 2015.
Shenglong acquisition
During the quarter the company focused on progressing efforts to finance the acquisition of a 77.58% interest in Shenglong International Investment Limited (“Shenglong”).
The company continues to look at a number of alternative funding proposals. We are currently in advanced discussions with a number of parties and are planning to make an announcement on the funding and the acquisition by the end of next week (8[th] May 2015).
In the last quarter the company announced that it had completed the registration of its unsecured corporate bond offering and that $AUD$13 million of these bonds have been traded with cash settlement scheduled on or before 6[th] February 2015. Unfortunately this settlement has yet to be completed.
The company had also announced it was planning to offer a further AUD$17 million of bonds for trade which would take the total bonds traded to AUD$30 million. This has not occurred despite sustanied efforts from various parties.
Recompliance with Chapters 1 &2
Once the acquisition has been completed AusROC will commence the process of recomplying under chapters 1 & 2 of the ASX listing rules. This involves inter alia, a capital raising of $4.28 million by issuing 214 million shares at 2 cents per share (on a consolidated basis). At this stage the Company will have approximately 500 million ordinary shares on issue at a re-compliance price of 2 cents.
The Company had planned to lodge the prospectus and documents by January 2015. This has been delayed due to the company not finalising financing and therefore the acquisition. As previously mentioned the company plans to make an announcement regarding the financing and the acquisition by the end of next week and will also
