Neil Crabb, CEO of Frontier IP, said:
"I am delighted by the success of this placing in what has been a very difficult environment for AIM-quoted and early-stage companies. The positive outcome reflects the underlying strength of our business model, the potential of our portfolio and in particular its increasing maturity. Although the outlook remains uncertain, I am encouraged by the progress we and our portfolio companies have made this year and remain optimistic about future prospects."
Admission, Settlement and Dealings
Application will be made for admission of the 357,146 Firm Placing Shares to trading on AIM and it is expected that First Admission will become effective and dealings in the Firm Placing Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 28 November 2024. Immediately following First Admission, the issued share capital of the Company is expected to comprise 56,524,092 Ordinary Shares. Each Ordinary Share has one voting right and no Ordinary Shares are held in treasury. Accordingly, immediately following First Admission, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 56,524,092. From First Admission, this figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Conditional Fundraising Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. Subject to the passing of the Fundraising Resolutions at the AGM, it is expected that Second Admission will become effective and dealings in the Conditional Fundraising Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 23 December 2024, at which time it is also expected that the Conditional Fundraising Shares will be enabled for settlement in CREST.
