Placing to raise £2.9 million 

 

London, February 25, 2010. ViaLogy (LSE:VIY) is pleased to announce that it has today raised approximately £2.88 million (gross) through the placing of 59,118,858 new ordinary shares of 1p each ("Placing Shares") at a price of 4.875p per share with certain existing shareholders ("the Placing").

The net proceeds of the Placing will be used in the further expansion of ViaLogy's Energy business which uses its proprietary QuantumRD™ technology to interpret seismic data for the location and analysis of oil well sites, as well as for general working capital purposes. 

Application has been made for the 59,118,858 Placing Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence on March 2, 2010. Following the Placing, the total number of ordinary shares in issue and therefore the total number of voting rights is 690,475,334

Terry Bond, chairman of ViaLogy commented: "The continuing success of ViaLogy's QuantumRD technology, and its ability to accurately predict the correct locations for well drillings in order to maximise the commercial potential of oil and gas deposits, is causing considerable interest in the O&G industry globally.

"To date we have concentrated our activities in Texas, where there are significant oil deposits in a wide variety of formations and at varying depths. In a state where the strike rate averages around 40% our first five analyses have all been successful. Our achievement is being recognised by exploration companies around the world and the additional funding will be used in part to expand ViaLogy's ability to handle the increased demand for its services."

The Company is recruiting additional geophysicists and mathematicians and acquiring additional sophisticated computer equipment.
