Lonrho Placing for GBP 2,499,286
The Board of Lonrho announces that the Company has raised
GBP2,499,286, by way of a placing of 40,311,060 new ordinary shares
of 1 pence each ("Placing Shares") in the share capital of the
Company at 6.2 pence per Placing Share ("the Placing"). This
equates to the outstanding headroom granted under the authority for
the issue of new shares in the Company as approved at the Company's
Annual General Meeting in 2012.
The Placing was made to H21 Macro Ltd and the proceeds from the
Placing will be utilised as working capital to continue to grow the
existing Group businesses.
Application has been made to the Financial Conduct Authority and
The London Stock Exchange for a listing of 40,311,060 ordinary
shares of 1p each to be admitted to the Official List, and
admission is expected to take place on 10 April 2013. The new
ordinary shares will, when issued, rank pari passu in all respects
with the existing ordinary shares of the Company.
The total number of shares in issue following the issue of the
Placing Shares is 1,653,415,048 ordinary shares with nominal value
of 1p each, with voting rights. The Company does not hold any
ordinary shares in Treasury.
Following admission, the above figure of 1,653,415,048 ordinary
shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if
they are required to notify their interest in, or change to their
interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial
Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
