Talga Group Successfully Raises A$10 million
Battery materials and technology company Talga Group Ltd (“ Talga ” or “ the Company ”) is pleased to announce it has received firm binding commitments for a two tranche placement of new fully paid ordinary Talga shares (“ New Shares ”) at a price of A$0.40 per share, to raise A$10 million before costs (“ Placement ”).
The Placement was strongly supported by new and existing institutional and sophisticated investors, including Pentwater Capital, Yandal Investments, and all directors of Talga’s Board (“ Director Participation ”).
Funds raised under the Placement are intended to be used to advance Vittangi Anode Project pre-FID activities including scaled-up supply of Talnode[®] -C anode to offtake parties and customers, project finance and grant development activities and for general working capital.
The issue price of A$0.40 per New Share reflects a 9.9% discount to the 10 day volume weighted average price of A$0.4440 per share on the last trading day prior to the Placement.
The Placement comprises the issue of 25 million New Shares, representing approximately 5.8% of Talga’s existing fully paid ordinary shares on issue. Placement participants will also be issued one free attaching unlisted option for every three New Shares subscribed for under the Placement, with an exercise price of A$0.58 and a two year exercise period (“ Placement Options ”). No funds will be raised from the issue of Placement Options.
The New Shares will be listed on ASX and rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares. Shares issued upon exercise of Placement Options will also rank equally with existing fully paid ordinary shares.
The New Shares and Placement Options will be issued under Talga’s existing ASX Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity. Settlement of the first tranche of the Placement is expected to occur on Wednesday, 28 May 2025 with New Shares commencing normal trading on the ASX on Thursday, 29 May 2025.
Shareholder approval for the Director Participation in the Placement will be sought at a general meeting of the Company's shareholders to be held in late June 2025. Subject to shareholder approval, this second tranche of the Placement will settle in late June or early July 2025.
Euroz Hartleys Limited was Lead Manager and Bookrunner to the Placement and BurnVoir Corporate Finance acted as Financial Advisor.
