('Gowin' or 'the Company')
Issue of up to £5,000,000 of 2% Cumulative
Preference Shares of £0.02 each
The Directors of Gowin New Energy Group Limited are pleased to announce that an application has been made for a new class of shares for the issue of up to £5,000,000 2% Cumulative Preference Shares, with a nominal value of £0.02 each, of the Company (the "Preference Share"). The new Preference Shares have been admitted today to trading on the NEX Exchange Growth Market.
The Company has received £250,000 from an investor Mr Wen Sheng-Tung to issue 12,500,000 2% Preference Shares of £0.02 each.
The Preference Shares will trade under ticker 'GWPT' and ISIN KYG412151154.
The proceeds of the Preference Shares will be utilized in whole, save for amounts retained to meet expenses, to provide loan finance to Goyoung International Company Limited ('Goyoung') which will be drawn down in tranches, as tranches of the Preference Shares are issued. Goyoung will perform trading transactions in relation to a new Tea Business.
Goyoung was incorporated in May 2019 with an issued share capital of US$ 6,500.00. Goyoung was set-up to operate the new Tea Business and is currently 100 per cent. owned by Mr Chen Chih-Lung and Mr Wen Sheng-Tung, each holding 50% of the shares in Goyoung. Following the admission of the Preference Shares on NEX Exchange, Mr Chen Chih-Lung has agreed to dispose of his entire share capital of Goyoung at no consideration. Consequently, Goyoung will be owned as to 15% Gowin and 85% by Mr Wen Sheng-Tung.
