Spectur Limited (ASX:SP3) Share Crossing and Removal of Overhang

ASX Announcement

Highlight

  • Crossing of 4.9 million fully paid ordinary shares to remove overhang
  • Addition of EGP Capital to the top 10 investors in Spectur Ltd

Tuesday 5 May 2020: Solar camera, AI and IoT platform and solution provider Spectur Limited (ASX:SP3) ("Spectur" or "the Company") advises that a total of 4,907,777 shares were traded in an off-market transaction on Monday 4 May 2020. The transaction between the seller (Peter Holton, former MD of Spectur) and EGP Capital was followed immediately by a series of smaller on-market transactions between EGP Capital, an associate of EGP Capital, the Chair of the Board of Spectur (Darren Cooper) and other unrelated parties. This resulted in EGP Capital concluding trading with approximately 4.9% of traded shares, after initially exceeding that amount during the day.

On this basis, a Form 603 "Notice of initial substantial holder" and a Form 605 "Notice of ceasing to be a substantial holder" will follow this announcement, with respect to EGP Capital.

A Form 605 "Notice of ceasing to be a substantial holder" will also follow this announcement, with respect to Peter Holton.

An Appendix 3Y notice will be issued for Darren Cooper, reflecting his change in holdings.

It is noted that at the conclusion of trading, Mr Peter Holton ceased to be a material shareholder in Spectur.

Managing Director Dr Gerard Dyson said "It is pleasing to see that the ongoing overhang of securities has been fully crossed now, reducing the selling pressures that have applied to the stock this financial year. The founder of the organisation, Mr Richard Wilkins, continues to be a long-term supporter of the company and is expected to remain the largest shareholder for some time.

Also, it is tremendous to have EGP Capital on our register. A fund with an average holding period approaching 10 years, taking a top 10 position in our registry underpins the growing institutional confidence in the longer-term potential of Spectur. The ongoing buying support from insiders (Darren Cooper on this occasion) and founders (Richard Wilkins) is also demonstrative of confidence in the growth of Spectur.

Spectur remains committed to executing its growth strategy and I look forward to reporting these results to shareholders in coming periods."

Ends.

This ASX announcement was approved for release by the board of Spectur Limited.
