What it means for a shareholder
143m new shares at A$0.007 to raise about A$1.0m. That's 5.2% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 5.2% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (142,857 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00549% to 0.0052% of the company. To keep it you'd need 7,839 more shares - about A$55 at the issue price.
