BWA Group PLC
(“BWA”, or the “Company”)
Subscription for New Shares by Chairman
BWA (AQSE:BWAP) the mining investment company with licences in Cameroon and
Canada, is pleased to announce the subscription for 40,000,000 ordinary shares
of 0.5p each (“Ordinary Shares”), raising £200,000, the Company’s
Chairman, Jonathan Wearing (the “Subscription”). The Subscription forms
the second part of the fundraising outlined in the announcements of 5 June
2024 and 11 September 2024, and brings the amount raised to date to £450,000.
The monies received from the Subscription will be used to extend the
Company’s exploration programme in Cameroon and for general working capital
purposes.
The new Ordinary Shares issued under the Subscription will be allotted under
the Company’s existing unspent share issue authorities and are expected to
be admitted to trading on the AQSE Growth Market on 2 December 2024
(“Admission”). On Admission, Mr Wearing will hold 238,713,415 Ordinary
Shares, equivalent to 25.60% of the Ordinary Shares on Admission. Mr
Wearing’s holding includes Ordinary Shares held by Tricastle Investments
Limited, a company he controls.
The issue of the New Shares constitutes a related party transaction under the
AQSE Growth Market Access Rules. The Board has concluded, having exercised
reasonable care, skill and diligence, that the related party transaction is
fair and reasonable as far as the shareholders of the Company are concerned.
On Admission, the Company will have 932,603,530 Ordinary Shares in issue,
each with one voting right. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury
and therefore the total number of voting rights in the Company is 932,603,530.
This figure should be used by shareholders from Admission 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 Company under
the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
