ADAMAS FINANCE ASIA LIMITED
("ADAM" or the "Company")
Placing Update
Further to our announcement on 2 November 2020, the Company has yet to receive funds from one of its placees for the amount of GBP1,142,794. To date, the Company has raised GBP1,991,916 (before expenses) of its originally targeted GBP3,134,710 from the Open Offer and Placing announced on 17 July 2020. Despite the delay in receiving the outstanding funds, the Company retains a strong balance sheet with more than adequate cash for the operation of its business and planned investment activities as we enter 2021.
Strategic initiatives that have been delayed pending receipt of the final placing monies will now be progressed without any further delay, as there is no certainty of receiving the funds. However, vigorous efforts will continue to be made to collect the funds.
A further announcement will follow in January 2021 outlining the business initiatives which the Company expects to launch as we enter the New Year.
