Retail Offer
The Board of Xeros Technology Group plc (the "Company") is pleased to announce a retail offer via BookBuild (the "Retail Offer") of new ordinary shares of 0.1p each ("Ordinary Shares") in the capital of the Company (the "Retail Offer Shares") at an issue price of 1.5 pence per New Ordinary Share (as defined below) (the "Issue Price").
In addition to the Retail Offer, the Company is also conducting a Placing and Subscription of new ordinary shares (the "Placing Shares", the "Subscription Shares" and together with the Retail Offer Shares, the "New Ordinary Shares") at the Issue Price (the "Placing", the "Subscription" and together with the Retail Offer, the "Fundraising"). A separate announcement has been made regarding the Placing and Subscription and its terms. For the avoidance of doubt, the Retail Offer is not part of the Placing and Subscription. Full details of the Fundraising, including the background to and reasons for the Placing and Subscription and the Retail Offer is included in the separate announcement released by the Company earlier this afternoon.
The Issue Price represents a discount of approximately 18.9 per cent. to the closing share price of 1.85 pence per Existing Ordinary Share on 03 April 2024.
The Retail Offer is conditional on the passing of the Resolutions and Second Admission. Admission of the Retail Offer Shares is expected to take place at 8:00 a.m. on 26 April 2024. Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the Resolutions being duly passed by Shareholders at the General Meeting to be held at the offices of Xeros Technology Group plc, Unit 2 Evolution, Advanced Manufacturing Park, Whittle Way, Rotherham, South Yorkshire, S60 5BL at 11:00 a.m. on 25 April 2024.
The net proceeds of the Fundraising will be used to:
- provide working capital as the Company advances commercialisation of its Core Technologies;
- provide contingency against timing of royalty income and operational cash flow break-even; and
- as appropriate, scale operations and accelerate development of other markets and applications for the Company's IP.
