TORONTO, Sept. 18, 2020 /CNW/ - Score Media and Gaming Inc. (TSX: SCR) ("theScore" or "the Company"), has announced that the underwriters of its previously announced bought deal offering via short-form prospectus (the "Offering") partially exercised their over-allotment option, resulting in the issue of an additional 960,600 Class A Subordinate Voting Shares ("Class A Shares") of the Company at a price of $0.65 per Class A Share. The exercise of the over-allotment option brings the total gross proceeds of the Offering to $25,649,390 through the issue of an aggregate of 39,460,600 Class A Shares (the "Offered Shares").
