("Diurnal" or the "Company")

 

Result of General Meeting and Issue of Equity

 

Diurnal Group plc (AIM: DNL), the specialty pharmaceutical company targeting patient needs in chronic endocrine (hormonal) diseases, announces that at the General Meeting held earlier today in connection with the Company's Placing and Open Offer at a price of 26 pence per New Ordinary Share, details of which were announced on 28 May 2019, all Resolutions were duly passed.

 

As a consequence and conditional on, amongst other things, Admission, the Company has raised approximately £5.93 million (before expenses) in aggregate through the Placing and Open Offer.

 

Applications have been made to the London Stock Exchange for 22,806,502 New Ordinary Shares in aggregate (comprising 20,576,924 Placing Shares and 2,229,578 Open Offer Shares) to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that EIS/VCT Admission of 2,190,945 EIS/VCT Shares will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 17 June 2019 and General Admission of 20,615,557 General Shares will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 18 June 2019. The New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.

 

Following EIS/VCT Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 63,912,825 Ordinary Shares. There are no Ordinary Shares held in treasury. Therefore, in accordance with FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule 5.6.1, the Company confirms that as at 17 June 2019, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 63,912,825. Between EIS/VCT Admission and General Admission, this figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

Following General Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 84,528,382 Ordinary Shares. There are no Ordinary Shares held in treasury. Therefore, in accordance with the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rule 5.6.1, the Company confirms that as at 18 June 2019, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 84,528,382. Following General Admission, this figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

 

Defined terms used in this announcement have the same meanings as in the Company's announcement dated 28 May 2019.
