30 Mar 2007capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor

Placement of 12.8m shares at 8 cents raises $1.025m, double the 4 cent price of the September 2006 placement. Funds are for expansion, possibly including using pre-emptive rights to increase its XDK stake, and assessing new projects.

What it means for a shareholder

12.8m new shares at A$0.080 to raise about A$1.0m. That's 85% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 85% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (12,500 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.567% to 0.0833% of the company. To keep it you'd need 72,573 more shares - about A$5,806 at the issue price.
