ISSUE OF EQUITY ON WARRANT EXERCISE
The Board of Avation PLC (LSE: AVAP), announces that on 28 November 2024, the
Company allotted 3,692,262 fully paid new ordinary shares representing
approximately 4.94 per cent of the enlarged capital of the Company pursuant to
the exercise of 2020 and 2021 series staff share warrants at a price of 130
pence and 102 pence per share respectively. The exercise of these warrants
provides the Company with £4,690,107 in proceeds which the Company will use
for general corporate purposes.
In addition, the Company allotted a further 101,500 fully paid new ordinary
shares representing approximately 0.14 per cent of the enlarged capital of the
Company pursuant to the exercise of the Company's listed warrants (LSE: AVAW),
which have an exercise price of 114.5 pence per share. Pursuant to the warrant
instrument constituting the listed warrants there is an exercise mechanism
which allows the Company to place shares in the market to settle the warrants
being exercised. The Company therefore placed 67,738 ordinary shares providing
proceeds of £101,943 which the Company will use for general corporate
purposes.
The allotment of shares is conditional only on admission of the new shares to
the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market
for listed securities becoming effective ("Admission").
Application will be made for the new ordinary shares to be listed on the
Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to be admitted to trading on the
London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities. It is expected that
Admission will become effective and that dealings in the new ordinary shares
will commence on or around 4 December 2024.
The new ordinary shares will, when issued, rank pari passu in all respects
with the existing ordinary shares including the right to receive dividends and
other distributions declared Following Admission.
Following Admission, there will be a total of 74,671,886 ordinary shares in
issue. Following Admission there will be 74,671,886 total voting rights for
the purpose of calculating shareholders' percentage voting rights.
