Proposed Directors' Subscription for GBP1.1 million of new Ordinary Shares in Koovs
Koovs plc ("Koovs", the "Company" and, together with its subsidiary undertakings, the "Group") (AIM: KOOV) today announces that certain Directors of the Company are shortly expected to subscribe for GBP1.1 million of new ordinary shares of one penny each ("Ordinary Shares") in the Company (the "Subscription Shares"), (the "Subscription").
The net proceeds of the Subscription will be used to fund the Group's plan to accelerate growth in its business and to provide funding for a marketing campaign in November.
The following Directors are expected to participate in the Subscription and subscribe for the following amounts:
Name Role Size of Subscription(GBP) ------------------ ----------------- -------------------------- Lord Waheed Alli Chairman 900,000 ------------------ ----------------- -------------------------- Chief Executive Mary Turner Officer 100,000 ------------------ ----------------- -------------------------- Chief Creative Robert Bready Officer 100,000 ------------------ ----------------- --------------------------
The Subscription will be a related party transaction under Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for Companies.
A further announcement will be made in due course giving details of the Subscription, in particular the total number of new Ordinary Shares to be issued, the subscription price and the timing of expected admission of the new Ordinary Shares to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.
Potential subsequent equity fundraising
As previously announced, the Board is in on-going discussions with potential investors to provide further, more material, funding for the Group's business. It is expected that a further tranche of equity investment, including further participation by certain of the Directors, will be announced prior to the end of 2015 and it is anticipated that such investment will be conducted at the same price that the Subscription is conducted at.
As part of this subsequent fundraising, in order to regularise the Group structure, the Board is also considering an opportunity to acquire further shares in Koovs Marketing Consulting Pvt. Ltd. ("Koovs India"), its Indian subsidiary, from Infotel E-Commerce Private Limited ("Infotel"), a company controlled by the Nahata family. Koovs is currently interested in 57.5 per cent. of the issued share capital of Koovs India and, subject to the necessary approvals, the Board is considering the acquisition of shares which would increase Koovs' interest to approximately 90 per cent. of the issued share capital of Koovs India. The funding for this investment would be achieved through the subscription for new shares in Koovs.
The subsequent equity fundraising and proposed regularisation of the Group structure is expected to be conditional upon, amongst other things, shareholder approval and may also be subject to Takeover Panel approval in relation to a potential Rule 9 whitewash of interests in the Company, to the extent they would otherwise exceed 30 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital of the Company.
A further announcement will be made in due course.
