Dilution Warning19 Sep 2024 20:38
Part 1
I was going to be writing a slightly different post to the one I'm now writing, but New Technology Capital Group reducing its holding to has removed one of the questions that would otherwise have needed answered regarding the 30% threshold.
This is key to the heart of the issue from 15th July
"Pursuant to the Investment Deed, New Tech was provided with a contingent warrant (the "Warrant") over new ordinary shares of ILS 0.001 each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). The Warrant was initially exercisable at a price of 1 penny per Ordinary Share, for a period of 45 days. Following the conclusion of this initial 45-day period (which has now passed) the Warrant exercise price (the "Exercise Price") is calculated as the average (in pounds Sterling, rounded down to three decimal places) of the lowest five daily VWAPs of an Ordinary Share (rounded down to three decimal places) during the twenty trading days before the receipt of a Warrant exercise notice by the Company, less a 15% discount, rounded down to the nearest one tenth of a penny. All other terms of the Investment Deed remain as set out in the Announcement. The Exercise Price of the new Ordinary Shares issued to New Tech pursuant to the first Warrant exercise notice, details of which were announced on 12 July 2024, was calculated based on this formula.
From the Final results statement 19th April
Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue 2022 = 76.013M, in 2023 = 143.786M
Today there are 698.2M shares in issue & that number is going to rise substantially in the near term, I can't say when but next week or the week after are pretty likely. Thanks to the structured Investment deed the CEO & CFO stupidly agreed to on 17th May. Compounded by there mathematic ineptitude regarding the recent placing & stupidity for allowing New Technology Capital Group to be involved in such a placing & thus help set the issue price of it ....
