Copy of my post from a couple of months back.
I don't think this is exactly right a bit of reading material.
"As part of the refinancing they issued the following statement:
1. AIB will convert an amount equal to £5,155,000 of the outstanding principal debt due under the Existing Facility into new ordinary shares of 2.5p each in the Company ("Settlement Shares"), with the number of Settlement Shares to be equivalent to 12.5% of the fully diluted issued share capital of the Company as at the Completion Date.
So if we say that £5,155,000 is equivalent to 12.5% of the shares in issue and there are currently just shy of 75,000,000 in issue, does that theoretically mean that the new shares should be issued at a price of 47p being the price per share when you gross up £5,155,000 as 12.5% which equates to £41,240,000 for 100%. With the additional 12.5% shares this would result in total shares in issue of 86,135,000.
Sure I am missing something here or being stupid, perhaps they will do a consolidation and that will explain it, but I can't see them issuing shares at 20 times the current sp!"
