Raised $25 million in fresh equity: $12 million from new, unaffiliated investor Viktor Tkachev at $1.4286/share and a further $13 million from SK Energy at a premium price, broadening the investor base slightly beyond the CEO.
12 Aug 2019capital raising announcement● NeutralMajor
An amended report on the May 2019 raise: SK Energy bought 6,818,181 shares at $2.20, a premium to market, for $15.0 million, lifting Kukes's holding from 78.2% to 81.0%, alongside 1,500,000 shares sold to two unaffiliated buyers at $2.00. The money went into the 2019 Permian drilling programme and further Permian acquisitions.
What it means for a shareholder
6.8m new shares at US$2.20 to raise about US$15.0m. That's 11% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 11% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (455 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.000844% to 0.000749% of the company. To keep it you'd need 58 more shares - about US$128 at the issue price.
