("Company")

 

Result of Placing and Open Offer

 

 

 

The Company is pleased to announce that it has successfully raised approximately £882,000 through an Open Offer to its existing shareholders. This follows the announcement of the Company raising approximately £1.8m through the proposed placing of 1,440,000 New Ordinary Shares at 125 per share on 11 July. This means that the Company has now conditionally raised a total of approximately £2.68 million to help fund its development of new renewable energy generation projects.

 

On 11 July 2013, Good Energy announced that as well as a proposed placing of new shares it would provide existing shareholders with the opportunity to access new shares at the same price as the Placees through an Open Offer.

 

Commenting, Good Energy CEO and Founder Juliet Davenport OBE, said:

 

"The Open Offer was not only an opportunity to raise new money for our development plans, but the chance to provide our existing shareholders, many of whom are our customers, with a new opportunity to access new shares at the same price as the other institutional investors. These funds will play an important role in taking forward our generation asset development plans, which will provide the Company with access to new sources of renewable power for the foreseeable future."

 

The Open Offer follows previous successful share offerings in 2002, 2003 and 2007.

 

Davenport continues:

 

"We're delighted that our shareholders have once again chosen to support Good Energy's plans for the future. This builds on our track record of providing the broadest set of opportunities for people to benefit from Good Energy's continued success."

 

The Open Offer closed for acceptances at 11.00 a.m. yesterday and has resulted in subscriptions being received for a total of 705,247 Open Offer Shares, representing 42.15% of the maximum number of shares available under the Open Offer.

 

The Placing and Open Offer remain conditional upon, amongst other things, certain resolutions being passed by the Shareholders of the Company at the General Meeting, to be held at 10.00 a.m. today at the offices of Chippenham Town Hall, High Street, Chippenham, Wiltshire, SN15 1ER and upon Admission occurring by 8.00 a.m. on 31 July 2013 (or such later time and/or date as the Company may determine).

 

Application has been made to AIM for the admission to trading on AIM of the 1,440,000 Placing Shares and 705,247 Open Offer Shares ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 31 July 2013. Following Admission, the Company will have 14,667,896 Ordinary Shares of 5 pence each in issue.

 

The New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and Open Offer (in uncertificated form) are expected to be credited to CREST accounts on or around 8.00 a.m. on 31 July 2013 and definitive share certificates for the New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and Open Offer are expected to be despatched to certificated shareholders by 12 August 2013.

 

This announcement should be read in conjunction with the full text of the circular posted to Shareholders on 11 July 2013 (the "Circular"), copies of which are available on the Company's website at www.goodenergygroup.co.uk. Unless stated otherwise, capitalised terms in this announcement have the same meaning as given in the Circular.
