ASX announcement of the same offer: 1 for 4 at 2 cents, up to $1,424,791, record date 9 November, closing 22 November. Funds go to Amersfoort exploration, offer costs and working capital. Directors' AGM approval sought to issue 50.3m shares for amounts owed.
6 Nov 2018capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor
Prospectus for a 1-for-4 non-renounceable entitlement offer of up to 71,239,542 shares at 2 cents to raise about $1.42m, closing 22 November 2018. Not underwritten. Follows the August 2018 signal of a raising backed by major shareholders.
What it means for a shareholder
71.2m new shares at A$0.020 to raise about A$1.4m. That's 20% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 20% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (50,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.0175% to 0.014% of the company. To keep it you'd need 12,500 more shares - about A$250 at the issue price.

Replying to ASX on the annual report: the auditor issued a disclaimer of opinion because it could not access Afro Energy's records, and the $10.48m investment in Afro is 97.5% of total assets. Kinetiko says it is pursuing insolvency proceedings against Badimo and still meets listing rule 12.2.
