Cambridge Cognition Holdings plc (AIM: COG), which develops and markets digital solutions to assess brain health, is pleased to announce that the Resolutions to approve, inter alia, the proposed Placing, Subscription and Open Offer as set out in the Circular published on 31 May 2024, and put to Shareholders at the General Meeting held earlier today, were duly passed. A summary of the voting results is set out below.
Result of Open Offer
The Company is also pleased to announce that the Open Offer, which closed for acceptances at 11.00 a.m. on 14 June 2023, was significantly oversubscribed with final valid applications being received, including Excess Entitlements, from Qualifying Shareholders in respect of a total of 892,413 Open Offer Shares. This represents a take-up of approximately 287% of the maximum number of Open Offer Shares made available to Qualifying Shareholders. Accordingly, qualifying applications under the Open Offer (other than applications received in respect of Excess Entitlements) will be met in full and a scaling back exercise has been conducted in respect of applications for Excess Entitlements. Accordingly, the Open Offer has raised a further approximately £125,000 for the Company, resulting in aggregate gross proceeds from the Fundraising of approximately £2.6 million.

The Board reports that Resolution 1 passed as an ordinary resolution and Resolution 2 passed as a special resolution. Following the passing of the Resolutions, the Company has received the authority for the Directors to allot and issue the Placing Shares, Subscription Shares and Open Offer Shares.
