23 Apr 2020capital raising announcement▼ BadMajor

Raised $3.0 million in a registered direct offering (15,000,000 shares) plus warrants at $0.20 per share -- pricing near the company's historic lows, with investors also getting rights to participate in up to 50% of any offering over the next year.

What it means for a shareholder

15.0m new shares at about US$0.200 to raise about US$3.0m. That's 12% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 12% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (5,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00461% to 0.00405% of the company. To keep it you'd need 692 more shares - about US$138 at the issue price.
