30 April 2026
Active Energy Group plc
("Active Energy", the "Company" or the "Group")
Result of Placing and Total Voting Rights
Active Energy (AIM: AEG, OTCQB: ATGVF), an alternative energy company
focused on the deployment of renewable infrastructure and the integration of
advanced digital technologies, announces that, further to the announcement at
5:01 p.m. on 30 April 2026 (the "Announcement"), it has conditionally
completed and closed the Placing to raise gross proceeds of £1.3 million
(before expenses). The Placing was covered by a limited number of very
supportive investors.
The Placing Price of 0.0825 pence represents a discount of 23 per cent. to the
closing middle market price of 0.1075 pence per Ordinary Shares on 29 April
2026, being the last business day prior to the announcement of the Placing.
Zeus Capital Limited acted as Bookrunner for and on behalf of the Company in
respect of the Placing. The Placing was undertaken through an accelerated
bookbuild process.
The Placing has conditionally raised gross proceeds of £1.3 million through
the placing of 1,575,757,576 Placing Shares to certain institutional and other
investors.
Related Party Transaction
John Story is a substantial shareholder of AEG and has agreed to subscribe for
606,060,600 Ordinary Shares in the Placing. Accordingly, John Story's
participation in the Placing is classified as a related party transaction
pursuant to the AIM Rules for Companies. The Directors of AEG (all of which
are independent of the Transaction) having consulted with Zeus, the Nominated
Adviser for AEG, consider that the terms of John Story's participation in the
Placing are fair and reasonable insofar as the AEG shareholders are concerned.
Admission
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission of the
1,575,757,576 Placing Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected
that Admission will become effective and dealings in the Placing Shares will
commence at 8.00 a.m. on 8 May 2026.
Following the Admission, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will
comprise 6,801,240,360 Ordinary Shares, with no shares held in treasury.
Therefore, the number of total voting rights in the Company will be
6,801,240,360, and this figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator
for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to
notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the voting rights
of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Capitalised terms used but not defined in this announcement have the meanings
given to them in the Company's announcement released at 5.01 p.m. on 30 April
2026 in respect of the Placing unless the context provides otherwise.
