WOA ATTRACTS NEW INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS
Wide Open Agriculture Limited (ASX: WOA) (“WOA” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that 2,267,985 WOAO Listed Options (“Options”) were sold pursuant to block trade arrangements managed by Euroz Hartleys Limited.
The Options sold were held by WOA Chairman, Anthony Maslin and WOA Managing Director, Dr Ben Cole. The Options were purchased by Australian based fund management institutions that are equally committed to the Company’s vision. The strategic value that these new institutional investors bring to the Company’s share register will be significant.
Mr Maslin’s WOA shareholding remains the same at 7,879,379 Fully Paid Ordinary Shares (4,750,000 voluntarily escrowed to 6 July 2023).
Dr Cole’s WOA shareholding also remains the same at 7,621,786 Fully Paid Ordinary Shares (1,250,000 voluntarily escrowed to 6 July 2023).
Mr Maslin and Dr Cole have not sold any shares in WOA since the inception of the Company.
To reflect their long term commitment to the Company, three of the major WOA shareholders (Commonland Foundation, Anthony Maslin and his wife, Marite Norris, as joint holders and Ben Cole) previously entered into voluntary restriction or escrow deeds restricting the disposal of a portion of their Shares together totalling 14,000,000 Shares for a period of 5 years from the date on which official quotation of the Shares on ASX commenced and will remain escrowed until 6 July 2023.
The block trade of Options to a new institutional shareholder provides strong validation that investors appreciate the Company’s growth strategy to increase revenue and launch additional products for its fast-growing conscious customer base.
The WOA board continue to uphold their commitment to reduced remuneration in order to direct maximum funds towards creating value for all shareholders. WOA shareholders previously approved the issue of Options to directors as a cost effective way to provide remuneration linked to the performance of the Company.
The Options will be exercised before the expiry date of 30 June 2021 raising approximately $680,000 for WOA.
This ASX release has been approved for release by the Board of Directors.
