13 Oct 2017asset acquisition disposition▲ GoodMajor
The Sale and Purchase Agreement for AWE's 100% of Mount Horner licence L7 has now been signed, turning the June binding terms into a full contract. Key receives $0.38m upfront and up to $1.9m rehabilitation reimbursement, and takes on operatorship and liabilities after completion.
3 Oct 2017regulatory community update▲ Good
Pilot Energy and Key said Norwest Energy's Xanadu-1 oil discovery in the adjacent TP/15 permit supports oil migration into WA-481-P (Key 40%). This reduces migration risk for the Cliff Head South and Leander Reef trends, which make up over 80% of the 247.8 MMbbl best-case prospective resource. The partners are seeking quotes for seismic reprocessing, which would take 6 to 9 months.

9 Aug 2017capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor
Key arranged a placement of 100 million shares at $0.01 to raise $1.0m from one sophisticated investor, with shares due 21 August 2017. Funds are for Perth, Canning and Cooper Basin work commitments and working capital. The price is above the $0.004 paid in the February placement.
What it means for a shareholder
100m new shares at A$0.010 to raise about A$1.0m. That's 8.0% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 8.0% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (100,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00872% to 0.00802% of the company. To keep it you'd need 8,716 more shares - about A$87 at the issue price.
