WCP,
It is not over yet.
Example Oxford Biomedical did a placing at 11p in November and after news 2 months later went to around 50p. Almost 50 million new shares.
I think the 201 deal will be transformational news as it will us decent cash and potential milestone payments. 2-3 years cash plus further lab revenue to come and by then we should get more deals.
Oxford, UK - 2 AUGUST 2023 - Oxford BioDynamics PLC (AIM: OBD, "OBD", the "Company" and, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"), a biotechnology company developing precision medicine tests based on the EpiSwitch® 3D genomics platform, is pleased to announce that it has successfully raised gross proceeds of £5.6m pursuant to a placing, conducted via an accelerated bookbuild process (the "Placing") and through direct subscriptions (the "Subscription").
Conditionally, in aggregate, 48,120,790 new ordinary shares of 1p ("Ordinary Shares") each in the Company will therefore be issued pursuant to the Placing (the "Placing Shares") at an issue price of 11p per new Ordinary Share ("Issue Price"). The Placing comprised both a General Placing and a VCT/EIS Placing. Subscribers have conditionally subscribed for, in aggregate, 2,528,634 new Ordinary Shares (the "Subscription Shares") at the Issue Price.
In addition, retail investors are able to participate via the PrimaryBid platform (the "PrimaryBid Offer", and together with the Placing and the Subscription, the "Fundraising"). The PrimaryBid Offer remains open. Further details on the results of the PrimaryBid Offer will be announced separately.
The Placing Shares and Subscription Shares represent approximately 25.7 per cent. of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as enlarged by the Placing and Subscription.
Shore Capital and Baden Hill acted as joint brokers and bookrunners in connection with the Placing.
Admission and settlement
An application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the VCT/EIS Placing Shares will commence on 21 August 2023 and dealings in the General Placing Shares, the Subscription Shares and the PrimaryBid Shares will commence on 22 August 2023, subject to the passing of the Resolutions at the General Meeting. The Placing Shares being issued pursuant to the Placing, the Subscription Shares being issued pursuant to the Subscription and the PrimaryBid Shares being issued pursuant to the PrimaryBid Offer will, on Admission, rank in full for all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid on the Ordinary Shares after Admission and will otherwise rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares.
