Interestingly from the GM RNS, and for those that see the £5mil raise as a negative
“There is no certainty that the directors will use this authority and there is no intention currently to do so. Moreover, there is no certainty that any eventual financing of the Company will involve the issuance of equity at all.
If granted, the authority will last for only six months from the date of the General Meeting, The Company will provide further updates in due course”
For me this sounds as if they are hopeful of a good result from TP103/104, and are being prudent to have a plan in place to raise additional funds should the need be, upon flow rates and revenue being finalised. The words “no intention to do so” (use the funds) and “will last for 6 months only”. Time limiting this seems to me that they are hopeful of revenue within the next 6 months. This is not a catch all raise, and we need to be clear on that. It’s simply prudent business sense at this stage working in a cost effective manner. I think some are assuming the GM will be a simple 100% we are taking the £5mil from shareholders, and this isn’t necessarily the case if you read the RNS.
