AFARAK GROUP PLC HAS RESOLVED ON A DIRECTED SHARE ISSUE
Stock Exchange Release
Afarak has resolved on a direct share issue without consideration
("Share Issue") of total of 4,965,265 Afarak's treasury shares to its
South African subsidiary Chromex Mining Company (Pty) Ltd ("Chromex
SA").
Share Issue is resolved in order to accomplish and execute ownership
arrangement in Chromex SA that will result in additional ownership of
mining assets in South Africa. This will benefit the Company as the
Group's parent company. Thus, from the Company's point of view
especially weighty financial reasons exists for the deviation from the
shareholders' pre-emptive right.
The Share Issue take place in accordance with the decisions of the
Afarak Board of Directors, on the basis of the authorization given by
the Annual General Meeting of Afarak on 22 June 2020.
Due to the relevantly modest size of the transaction and the fact that
the Company is increasing its ownership in assets that it already
controls, the Company is not expecting the transaction to affect the
financial performance of the Group in 2021.
