Result of Placing
Notice of General Meeting
Related Party Transaction
PDMR Trading
The Company is pleased to announce that it has raised gross proceeds of GBP2.8million as result of the fundraising announced earlier today (the "Fundraising").
A total of 5,827,397 new ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") have been conditionally placed by WH Ireland Limited with new and existing investors (the "Placing") at a price of 48 pence per share (the "Issue Price").
The Placing is subject to, inter alia, shareholder approval. The Placing Price represents a discount of approximately 2 per cent to the closing mid-market price of WH Ireland's existing ordinary shares of 49 pence on 5 November 2019 (being the last business day prior to the announcement). The Placing Shares represent approximately 12 per cent. of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.
The Company intends that the net proceeds of the Placing will be used to create a significant buffer to its minimum regulatory capital position.
Commenting on the transaction, Phillip Wale, Chief Executive Officer said:
"We are delighted with the support from new and existing shareholders. This Placing, along with the anticipation of a return to monthly profitability for the Company by the start of the new financial year, will strongly position the Group to exploit the opportunities available to it over the coming months from both a transactional and a recruitment perspective."

As part of the Placing, M&G Investments Limited have subscribed for 885,889 Placing Shares, which, if the Placing becomes unconditional and proceeds to completion, would increase their total holding to approximately 7,301,333 Ordinary Shares and 14.99% of the Company's enlarged issued share capital.
