What it means for a shareholder
57.7m new shares at A$0.026 to raise about A$1.5m. That's 13% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 13% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (38,462 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00984% to 0.00857% of the company. To keep it you'd need 5,675 more shares - about A$148 at the issue price.
