Share Consolidation and Notice of General Meeting

1 Mar 2024 07:00

RNS Number : 0673F
Power Metal Resources PLC
01 March 2024
 

1 March 2024

Power Metal Resources PLC

("Power Metal" or the "Company")

Proposed Share Consolidation

and

Notice of General Meeting

Power Metal Resources PLC (AIM:POW), the London listed exploration company with a global project portfolio, announces that a circular providing details of the Board's proposed share consolidation (the "Circular") was posted to shareholders today, along with the Company's Annual Report & Accounts for the year ended 30 September 2023, and Notice of Annual General Meeting as announced on 21 February 2024. The Circular also contains a Notice of General Meeting ("GM") to take place immediately following the Annual General Meeting at 11:00am on 26 March 2024 at Temple Chambers, 3-7 Temple Avenue, London, EC4Y 0DT. A copy of the Circular and Notice of GM will shortly be available on the Company's website at www.powermetalresources.com.

Proposed Share Consolidation

The Board is of the view that it would benefit the Company and the Company's shareholders to reduce the number of Existing Ordinary Shares in issue by consolidating the Existing Ordinary Shares on the basis of 1 New Ordinary Share of 2p for every 20 Existing Ordinary Shares of 0.1p each ("Share Consolidation"). This is expected to assist in reducing the volatility in the Company's share price and enable a more consistent valuation of the Company, making the Company's shares more attractive to institutional shareholders.

The effect of the Share Consolidation will be that shareholders holding Existing Ordinary Shares on the Company's register of members at 6:00 p.m. on 26 March 2024 will, on the implementation of the Share Consolidation, hold:

 

1 New Ordinary Share for every 20 Existing Ordinary Shares held on 26 March 2024.

 

The Share Consolidation requires the approval of the Company's shareholders by way of ordinary resolution at the GM ("Consolidation Resolution"). Accordingly the Directors unanimously recommend shareholders to vote in favour of the Consolidation Resolution to be proposed at the GM.

 

As all shareholdings in the Company will be consolidated, the number of ordinary shares held by each shareholder will be reduced as a result of the Share Consolidation, but the percentage of the total issued ordinary share capital of the Company held by each shareholder immediately before and following the Share Consolidation will, save for fractional entitlements, remain unchanged.

 

Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares resulting from the Consolidation to be admitted to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange in place of the Existing Ordinary Shares ("Admission"). Subject to the resolution at the GM being passed, dealings in the Existing Ordinary Shares will cease at 6:00 p.m. on 26 March 2024 and it is expected that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the New Ordinary Shares will commence at 8:00 a.m. on 27 March 2024.

Issue of Equity

In order to facilitate the Share Consolidation, 16 new Existing Ordinary Shares will be issued to SP Angel Corporate Finance LLP, the Company's joint broker, such that prior to the Share Consolidation, the Company's issued share capital will be exactly divisible by 20. These new Existing Ordinary Shares will be issued at market value and sold in the market along with the aggregation of any fractional entitlements at the best price reasonably obtainable for the Company.

Application has therefore been made for the 16 new Existing Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM with admission expected to take place on 6 March 2024. These Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with all Existing Ordinary Shares in the Company.

Following admission of the 16 new Existing Ordinary Shares, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 2,213,468,340 Ordinary Shares with voting rights. This figure of 2,213,468,340 Ordinary Shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority.

Unless otherwise indicated, all defined terms in this announcement shall have the same meaning as described in the Circular.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of the Market Abuse Regulation (EU) 596/2014 as it forms part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 ("MAR"), and is disclosed in accordance with the Company's obligations under Article 17 of MAR.

NOTES TO EDITORS

Power Metal Resources plc - Background

Power Metal Resources plc (LON:POW) is an AIM listed metals exploration company which finances and manages global resource projects.

The Company has a principal focus on opportunities offering district scale potential across a global portfolio including precious, base and strategic metal exploration in North America, Africa and Australia.

Project interests range from early-stage greenfield exploration to later-stage prospects currently subject to drill programmes.
