1 Oct 2024capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor
Closed a C$8.05 million bought deal of 59,629,800 units at $0.135 including the full over-allotment - nearly 60 million new shares, at a price close to the $0.125 of the December 2023 round and half the $0.27 the June 2023 flow-through fetched.
What it means for a shareholder
59.6m new shares at US$0.135 to raise about US$8.1m. That's 5.2% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 5.2% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (7,407 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.000686% to 0.00065% of the company. To keep it you'd need 409 more shares - about US$55 at the issue price.
