Marwyn Acquisition Company III Limited
("MAC" or the "Company")
Fund-raisings
GBP12m subscription & GBP200m redeemable share issue
Marwyn Acquisition Company III Limited announces that it has
raised a further GBP12 million through the issue of A Shares(1) and
that the directors are actively considering a possible further
equity issue of up to GBP200 million which, should it proceed, is
expected to consist of redeemable shares and warrants. The issue of
these securities is targeted for completion in advance of, and not
conditional on, any M&A transaction.
The Directors believe that being able to demonstrate the
Company's access to equity capital alongside the management team's
past track record of successful fundraising and transaction
execution, will further enhance the Company's competitiveness in
accessing high quality businesses with which to combine.
Furthermore, the Directors believe that the structure and
flexibility that the MAC corporate structure affords and close
alignment between management incentivisation and long-term
shareholder returns, including the absence of the highly dilutive
promote structure commonly found in other acquisition company
models, gives the Company a significant advantage over its
competitors. However, there is no certainty that a GBP200 million
capital raising and/or any M&A transaction will take place nor
of their respective terms should they do so.
Pursuant to the Forward Purchase Agreement between the Company,
Marwyn General Partner II Limited and Marwyn Value Investors II LP
(related parties of the Company through common management) detailed
in the MAC Prospectus of 4 December 2020, the Company has raised
GBP12,000,000 through the issue of 12 million A Shares (with Class
A Warrants being issued on the basis of one Class A Warrant per A
Share) at a price of GBP1 per share. The capital is being raised to
support the execution of the Company's stated strategy and, after
deduction of transaction costs, will be invested upon receipt in
its subsidiary. The Company's subsidiary is a related party of the
Company due to its minority interests being held by other related
parties to the Company.
A PDMR Notification and a PCA Notification are set out at the
bottom of this announcement. As the A Shares are unlisted and carry
no voting rights, the total number of voting rights in the Company
remains unchanged. Accordingly, shareholders should use the total
number of Ordinary Shares in the Company in issue of 700,000 as the
denominator for the calculations by which they will determine
whether they are required to notify their interest in the Company
under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the
Financial Conduct Authority.
The Company is being supported on the proposed capital raising
of up to GBP200 million by Barclays Bank PLC ( " Barclays " ), J.P.
Morgan Securities plc (which conducts its UK investment banking
business as "J.P. Morgan Cazenove") and N. M. Rothschild & Sons
Limited ( " Rothschild & Co " )
Notes
(1) The A Shares are ordinary equity shares with the same
economic rights as the Company's ordinary shares but without voting
rights. They are convertible into ordinary shares on a one-for-one
basis at the time at which the Company next publishes a prospectus
or equivalent document in relation to the further issue of ordinary
shares.
