Mkango Resources Ltd (AIM/TSX-V: MKA) (the "Company" or "Mkango") is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Fundraise announced yesterday. The Fundraise generated strong demand, was significantly oversubscribed and as a result was upsized from gross proceeds of £10 million. On settlement, the Fundraise will raise gross proceeds of approximately £12.5 million
Avacta
further to the Company's announcement on 26 March 2026 (the "Launch Announcement"), the Company has conditionally raised gross proceeds of £10 million through the Placing of 15,000,000 new Ordinary Shares (the "Placing Shares") and Subscription for 873,016 new Ordinary Shares (the "Subscription Shares") by certain Directors of the Company, in each case, both at a price of 63 pence per Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price").
Together, the Placing Shares and the Subscription Shares in aggregate represent approximately 3.60 per cent. of the existing issued ordinary share capital of the Company

Avacta DID NOT take the opportunity to issue more shares when an oversubscription opportunity presented itself.

Despite significant interest in AVA6103, the Company's strategy remains to retain all rights to AVA6103 at least until the Company has sight of the initial results from the Phase 1a trial.
CC: "The Board's decision to raise funds enables Avacta to continue to retain 100% ownership of our highly promising programs based on our proprietary pre|CISION®️ technology and provide us with a cash runway into early Q1 2027.
We believe this decision to overwhelmingly be in the long-term interest of shareholders, such is the potential for our proprietary technology.

Timing of AVA6103 'initial human readout' is key.
All interested parties will be aware (and timing their finance availability for) this deadline that is clear to all parties.
