Record WAM Global IPO closes oversubscribed

18 June 2018 ASX announcement & media release

The WAM Global Limited (ASX: WGB) Board of Directors has authorised the allotment of shares following the Company’s oversubscribed $466 million initial public offering (IPO), the largest capital raising undertaken by Wilson Asset Management.

Wilson Asset Management and WAM Global Chairman Geoff Wilson AO said strong demand from existing investors led to the offer exceeding the $330 million target.

“We are pleased the WAM Global IPO has raised $466 million, a record capital raising for Wilson Asset Management,” Mr Wilson said.

“The IPO attracted 12,855 investors, more than 8,000 were existing shareholders of Wilson Asset Management listed investment companies and the priority allocation was oversubscribed. All investors who correctly applied and paid for shares will receive their full allocation.

“We look forward to providing WAM Global shareholders with exposure to a high-quality portfolio of undervalued international growth companies using our proven investment process, which has delivered solid risk-adjusted returns for more than 20 years,” Mr Wilson said.
