Entitlement offer raised about $750,000 at $0.002. Shareholders took up about $498,594 (249.3m shares) and the underwriter will place the roughly 125.4m-share shortfall. Funds the uplift program, now expected to start mid-July. Resolves the open raising.
What it means for a shareholder
249m new shares at about A$0.003 to raise about A$750,000. That's 19% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 19% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (332,400 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.0312% to 0.0253% of the company. To keep it you'd need 77,891 more shares - about A$234 at the issue price.
