Prospectus for the entitlement offer of ~251m shares at A$0.005 (one free option per share, A$0.011, June 2022) to raise up to ~A$1.26m, plus the 300m option offer at A$0.001. It formalises the 31 July announcement; CPS Capital is lead manager.
What it means for a shareholder
251m new shares at A$0.005 to raise about A$1.3m. That's 20% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 20% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (200,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.0199% to 0.0159% of the company. To keep it you'd need 49,975 more shares - about A$250 at the issue price.
