ISSUE OF EQUITY
31 October 2019
Shires Income PLC (the "Company") announces that it has issued 40,000 Ordinary shares at a price of 271.0 pence per share.
The Company's Ordinary shares are trading at a premium to the net asset value and continued demand for the shares gives it the opportunity to issue new shares to satisfy that secondary market demand on a non-dilutive basis.
The shares rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary shares and dealings are expected to commence on 4 November 2019.
Following the transaction, the Company's share capital will comprise 30,564,580 issued Ordinary shares.
The total number of Ordinary shares with voting rights in the Company is 30,564,580 and this figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
