Falconedge Plc
("Falconedge" or the "Company")
WRAP Retail Offer for up to £250,000
Falconedge Plc is pleased to announce a retail offer via the Winterflood Retail Access Platform ("WRAP") in conjunction with its IPO on the Access Segment of the Aquis Stock Exchange Growth Market ("Aquis"), to raise up to £250,000 (the "WRAP Retail Offer") through the issue of new ordinary shares of £0.000067 each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares").
Under the WRAP Retail Offer, Ordinary Shares available under the WRAP Retail Offer (the "WRAP Retail Offer Shares") will be made available at a price of £0.01034 per share. The WRAP Retail Offer is being made alongside an institutional placing and subscription (the "Fundraising"), to raise approximately £1,000,000, subject to Admission (as defined below), (before expenses) in conjunction with the Company's Admission to trading on Aquis ("Admission"), at the same price per share as the WRAP Retail Offer.
Admission is anticipated to become effective and dealings in the Ordinary Shares (including the WRAP Retail Offer Shares), are expected to commence on or around 5 November 2025. Further information on the Company and its business is set out in the Pathfinder Admission Document expected to be published shortly. Upon publication, copies of the Admission Document will be available online at www.falconedge.co.uk.
For the avoidance of doubt, the WRAP Retail Offer is not part of the Fundraising, and both will be individually conditional on Admission to trading on Aquis.
