What it means for a shareholder

2.1m new shares at US$0.200 to raise about US$427,500. That's 2.1% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 2.1% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (5,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00514% to 0.00504% of the company. To keep it you'd need 108 more shares - about US$22 at the issue price.
