Gledhow Investments plc (AQSE: GDH) is pleased to announce that it has raised £145,000 through the issue of 14,500,000 new ordinary shares of 1 pence each, at 1 pence per share (“Subscription”; “Subscription Shares”). The Subscription Shares will have warrants attached, on the basis of 1 warrant for every 2 Subscription Shares, vesting immediately, exercisable at 1.5 pence per share and expiring 24 months from grant (“Warrants”).
The Company has also agreed to grant those investors who took part in the August subscription and the Penina Vendors of Penina Resources Ltd (“Penina Acquisition”), warrants on the same terms as the warrants issued to the subscribers of the Subscription Shares (together the “Warrant Issuance”). The details of the August subscription and the Penina Acquisition can be found in the Company’s announcement of 13 August 2026.
Following the grant of warrants, there will be 38,200,000 warrants in total, representing approximately 20.74% of the Company’s fully diluted share capital, made up as to 7,250,000 warrants pursuant to the Subscription Shares, 20 million warrants pursuant to the August subscription and 10,950,000 warrants pursuant to the Penina Acquisition.
Related Party Transaction
Sam Quinn, a director of the Company, will receive 2,913,826 Warrants as part of the Warrant Issuance. As a director of the Company, Sam Quinn is a related party for the purposes of Rule 4.6 of the Aquis Growth Market Access Rulebook and, accordingly, the issue of the 2,913,826 Warrants to him constitutes a related party transaction.
Guy Miller, being the director of the Company independent of the transaction, considers that, having exercised reasonable care, skill and diligence, the terms of the related party transaction are fair and reasonable insofar as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.
Use of Proceeds from the Subscription
The Company will continue to seek out investment opportunities, predominantly in the publicly quoted/listed natural resources space.
