10 July 2017capital raising announcement▲ GoodMajor

As the newly renamed U.S. Gold Corp., raised $500,000 in a private placement of 179,211 shares at $2.79.

What it means for a shareholder

179,211 new shares at US$2.79 to raise about US$500,000. That's 2.5% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 2.5% smaller. If you held US$1,000 of shares (358 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.00517% to 0.00504% of the company. To keep it you'd need 9 more shares - about US$25 at the issue price.
