Quadrise Plc (AIM:QED), the supplier of innovative energy solutions for a cleaner planet, is pleased to announce a retail offer via the BookBuild Platform to raise gross proceeds of up to £1 million (the "Retail Offer") through the issue of new ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").
Under the Retail Offer up to 33,333,333 new Ordinary Shares (the "Retail Offer Shares") will be made available at a price of 3 pence per Retail Offer Share (the "Issue Price"), although, the amount to be raised pursuant to the Retail Offer may be appropriately increased with additional demand.
In addition to the Retail Offer, and as announced by the Company earlier today, the Company has conditionally raised gross proceeds of £4.53 million by way of an upsized and oversubscribed placing of £4.50 million and £0.03 million through a direct subscription by certain Directors of the Company (the "Placing" and the "Subscription") at the Issue Price.
A separate announcement was released by the Company on 23 January 2025 which sets out the terms of the Placing and the Subscription together with the reasons for the Placing and the Subscription and the use of proceeds. The net proceeds of the Retail Offer will be utilised for product and business development, equipment purchases and to strengthen the Company's balance sheet.
The new Ordinary Shares to be issued in the Retail Offer, together with the Placing Shares and the Subscription Shares will be issued and allotted under the Company's existing allotment and dis-application of pre-emption rights authorities obtained at the Company's last annual general meeting held on 22 November 2024.
The Retail Offer is not part of the Placing or the Subscription. Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional upon, inter alia, completion of the Placing and the Subscription and the Placing Shares, Subscription Shares and the Retail Offer Shares being admitted to trading on the AIM market ("AIM") operated by London Stock Exchange plc (the "London Stock Exchange"). Completion of the Placing and the Subscription is not conditional on the completion of the Retail Offer.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for the Retail Offer Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Second Admission"). It is anticipated that Second Admission will become effective and that dealings in the Retail Offer Shares will commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on 3 February 2025 or such later time and/or date as Shore, VSA, Cavendish (as defined below) and the Company agree (being in any event no later than 8.00 a.m. on 28 February 2025).
