Rey completed its $4M placement of 50M shares at 8c to two Hong Kong investors, 25M each. Start Grand Global now holds about 40.1M shares, 5.6% of the enlarged capital.

50.0m new shares at A$0.080 to raise about A$4.0m. That's 7.0% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 7.0% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (12,500 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00188% to 0.00175% of the company. To keep it you'd need 942 more shares - about A$75 at the issue price.
